II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that so many products that are ex-
tensiyely advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is PLAINTIFF 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 "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, a
preparation 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,
80 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

Il thought so; otherwise you
wouldn't talk SO confidently of run
ming your line over city streets and
making jump-crossings- on your COM
petftor's road. If your competitor re-
CARDS you as menace to his pocket
book, he can give you a nice little run
for your money and delay you indefi-
nitely"
Il realize that, Buck. That's why
I'm not appearing In this railroad deal
at all. If Pennington suspected l was
back Of it, he'd fight me before the
city council and move heaven and
earth to keep me out Of franchise
to use the city streets and cross his
line. OF course, since his main line
runs on city property, under fran
chise granted by the city, the city has
a perfect Eight to grant me the privi-
lege of making a jump-crossing of his
line"
"Will they do it? That's the prob
lem. If they will not, you're licked,
my son. and I'm out of Job"
Bryce hung his head thoughtfully.
"I've been too cocksure," he muttered
pI esently. 81 shouldn't have spent
that twelve thousand for rights of way
until / had settled the matter of the
franchise"
"Oh, I didn't buy any rights of way
yet" Ogilvy FASTENED to assure him.
1--WE only signed the landowners up
on an agreement to give or sell me
right of way a. the stipulated figures
any time within one year from date
Will the city council grant you q
franchise to enter the city and jump
Pennington's tracks,"
"I'm sure don't know, Buck. You'll
have to ask them-sound them out.
The council meets Saturday morning.
They'll meet this evening-in the
private dining room of the Hotel
Sequoia, if can arrange it," Buck
Ogilvy declared emphatically. "I'm
going. to have them all up for dinner
and talk the matter over. l know
the breed from cover to cover. Fol
lowing preliminary conference, I'll
let you know whether you're going to
get that franchise without difficulty or
whether somebody's itchy palm will
have to be crossed with silver first. BY
the way, what do you know about
your blighted Id city council, any,

HOLY WELLS SPREAD DISEASE
Italian Pilgrims Resent Attempts to
Prevent Their Using Polluted
Pools They Hold Sacred.

Benares, the city Of 1000 temples,
is also the city of holy wells. A pill
grim in Benares can put in busy day
making the round Of these landmarks
and complying with the ceremonies
prescribed for those who would drink
from them.
Only the devout Indian pilgrim
would care to drink Of the sacred
wells, for custom says that flowers
must be flung into them as peace Of
ferings, and these decayed floral Of
ferings tend to make the water unfit
for drinking. The British govern
ment did clean up some of the most
holy and popular Of the wells in the
interests Of sanitation. But the Hin
dus were not pleased. They come
hundreds Of miles to enjoy the bene-
fits of the holy water, taste, scent and
all and they do not care to have 1t
tempered with.
The most holy of the wells is the
Well of knowledge which stands near
Benares most ancient shrine, the
Golden Temple, and is said to be the
dwelling place of very important
god. The most mysterious is the
Well of Fate. Any one who looks
into the Well of Fate exactly at noon
and falls to see his shadow is said to
be doomed to die within six months.
OF course, If the silent prophecy is
unfavorable, the spirits can usually be
bought off by offerings at the temple.

In another we'll a snake god lives,
and still another rs dedicated to the
spirit of healing. Pilgrims not only
drink Of the water Of this well, but
also battle In it to make sure Of the
waters power being transferred to
them. Half million pilgrims tour the
holy wells of Benares every year and
drink enough Of the water to stock up
their systems with the germs of every
disease known to India.
