WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands Of women have kidney and
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
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, may
be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.
Get a medium or large size bottle i'm
mediately from any drug store.
However, if you wish first to test this
great, preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

same kind. Last fall an agent came
along, selling soap that would do
everything you can think of, from
identifying the female complexion to
chasing the cows out of the corn. The
agent talked as though he had eight
day works in him, like our old grand
fathers clock, and he didn't make any
impression until he said the soap
would heal all skin diseases of man
or beast. 1t happened at that period
that Mr.. Curfew had an imitation bird
dog that he traded good watch for,
and gave a dollar to boot, said dollar
having been extracted from my pri-
vate savings, and never returned.
'This dog had the mango or some
disagreeable disease that caused him
to itch in the most reprehensible man
ner. He was always scratching and
rubbing against everything he could
find, first and last. One day he up
set my parlor table and broke all my
best china, which had placed on the
table a few minutes before. He also
upset the sewing machine and the
churn, and don't know what else.
$50 when Mr.. Curfew heard that
the agents soap would cure skin dis
eases, he insisted upon buying a cake,
and after he had gone he began to
wash the dog with that marvellous
soap. / don't know what ingredients
said soap contained, but after it was
rubbed into the dogs skin that I'M
fortunate animal became frantic and
acted as though its reason tottered on
its throne. Mr.. Curfew tried to hold
the beast, and it reached around and
bit his ear almost Off, and Of course
he released it then, and the uproar
he made, as he danced around the
house, holding his ear with one hand,
and summoning the police with the
other was simply sCandalous.
Meanwhile the dog ran off, en-
tirely demented. Mrs. Turpentine
was crossing the road pushing her
baby buggy, when the animal collided
with said vehicle, and spilled her off
spring into the mud. | am willing
to admit that such an experience was
aggravating, but l don't think it was
ladylike in Mrs. Turpentine to come
over to my house with her muddy in
FAINT under her arm, and shake her fist
under my nose, and tell me that for
frye cents she'd pull all my hair out.

waiting for a street car, when the
crazy dog ran against his cane and
he took a header into the gutter, and
/ really felt sorry for him when | saw
him going home ten minutes later,
dripping slush and mud like sea-
serpent, but / couldn't sympathize
with him so very much when he
picked up a brick as he was passing
our place and smashed panel in our
front door.
"For two days people were coming
here claiming that we ought to REIN
burse them for damages done by that
dog. 1t seemed that the unfortunate
animal made a circuit of the town,
and left a trail of desolation behind
him. He upset six pans of milk for
Mrs. Trumpeter, and scared Smiths
family horse so 1t ran away and in
iured several members of the family,
and killed eight prize chickens for Mr..
Dippy, and l don't know what else.
In view Of which, l think we can

Ancient Land Submerged.

Ancient traditions, as well as phys
zeal observations, point out the for
MGR existence Of the land of Lectonia,
which would seem TO have occupied
n mart of the space now filled by the
Grecian sea. An earthquake probably
broke down the foundations, and the
whole was submerged under the
waves. This Is believed to have hap
nened when the sea, which was for
merIy extended over the Scythian
plaIns. forced its way through the
Rosnorus and precipitated itself into
the basin Of the Mediterranean.
