Jason : Leoendary Character.

Jason was the leader of the Argo-
nautic expedition in Greek legend. The
equivalent of his name in Greek is
the healer or atoner. Jason was tu-
tored and brought up under Chiron. a
Greek myth renowned for his wisdom
and skill in medicine, hunting, music
and prophecy. Jason's greatest ex-
plot was his expedition with the Ar
gonauts in quest of the Golden Fleece.
Jason secured this by the aid of Me-
dea, sorceress who fell in love with
him. She protected him from the bulls
breathing fire and hoofed with brass
which he was obliged. in order to OBJ
tain the fleece. to yoke to the pillow.
She also protected him from the
armed men who sprang up from the
dragons teeth which he was required
to SOW i'm the fields. Medea fled with
Jason and the fleece and married him.
Ten years later Jason abandoned her
after she had murdered Creusa, whom
Jason had determined to marry.

If You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that SO many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says sTake for
example DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has SO large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
30 many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles

Metals That Call for Use.

Of the metals now known, more

notes that not one-half have come into
common use. The sO-called rare ele-
ments are really abundant enough,
considering the earth's crust as a
whole. though they are so thinly scat
tered that they are usually over
looked and hard to extract. But when
ever one of them proves valuable it is
soon found available. A systematic
search generally reveals it somewhere
in sufficient quantity to be worked.

are three mountains on each of which
grows a tree 5000 miles high. The
