the ranks of Filmdom.
After several unsuccessful attempts
to find just the type for the role OF
Leila Porter, Mr.. DeMille tried Miss
Swanson in the part. She fitted 1t like
a glove. Her ability to wear striking
Oriental gowns, her daintiness which

No Cure for influenza.

An article from the editorial col
umns Of the Journal Of the American
Medical association says. 'There are
10 specific cures for so-called Spanish
Influenza. Most Of the "cures recon-
mended are not only ridiculous, but
IRE actually harmful. Hyper enthusi-
assn applied to moral and esthetic
ideals is praisewOrthy emotion, but
as related to medical science is usually
a delusion and a snare. The United
States public health service, having
been besieged with inquiries regarding
this and that method Of treatment, has
ISSUED a special bulletin in which it is
that there is no specific
cure for influenza yet known and that
the chief reliance must be placed upon
good hygiene, good nursing, and symp-
tomato treatment. First OF all employ
a physician. Colorado Agricultural

important to all Women
Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Womens' complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy con.
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss Of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita.
bic and maybe respondent; it makes
anyone SO.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
A good kidney medicine, possessing
real healing and curative value, should
be blessing to thousands of nervous,
over-worked women.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney
liver and bladder medicine will do for
them. Every reader of this paper, who
has not already tried it, by enclosing ten
cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton,

EMERSON FELT PINCH OF WAR
Great American Poet Wrote to Friend
Telling Him Of the Financial
Crisis.

In the early days of the Civil war,
Emerson wrote to a friend of the
financial crisis:
1.-THE first of January (1862) has
found me in quite as poor a plight as
the rest of the Americans. Not a penny
from my books since last June, which
usually yield $500 or 5000 a year; no
dividends from the banks or from Ii
dian-Plymouth property. Then almost
all income. from lectures has quite
ceased, so that your letter found me in
study how to pay $500 or $500 with
$50 Meanwhile we are trying to be as
unconsuming as candles under an ex-
tinguisher and it's frightful to think
how many rivals we have in distress
and in economy, But far better that
this grinding should go on from bad
to worse than that we be driven by
any Impotence into a hasty peace, or
any peace restoring the old rotten
uess."

Many Organizations Help.
'In collecting the seed that France
will want" said Mr.. Ridsdale be-
fore sailing, 'the members of our asso-
citation, the forestry departments of
the various states, the boy scouts and
other organizations will be called upon
to help.
"A million and q quarter acres Of
forest in the north and east Of France
have been practically wiped out dur
Ing the war. They were cut down by
the contending armies for use in
trench building, for barracks, for
roads, for Y. NJ. @. A. and hospital
buildings or were blasted to pieces by
shell fire. But the sacrifice was not
in vain, for the great defensive value
of the forests materially aided France
and her allies in checking the Ger
man drives and saving more of France
from invasion by the Huns.
"The service which the American
Forestry association and its members
will consider an honor to perform is to
aid in the restoration Of these forests
which France had to sacrifice under
the pressure of war, for no war has
ever made such a call upon the for
ests for materials.
almost a million French people
were dependent upon these forests for
six months of the year for livelihood,
and the French government faces a
great economic problem in providing
them with resources for sustaining
themselves until the forests are re.
stored"

Another plan being worked out is for
the planting Of memorial trees along
the transcontineL Sal motor highways
by the various counties through which
such highways pass. The Lincoln
Highway association has taken up this
plan. In Louisiana memorial trees are
to be planted, one every 40 feet, along
the Jefferson highway in that state.
