II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are eI-
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
spplies 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 DIR. 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,
SO 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.

Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address

WHY SOUND pop
CORN WON'T pop
Apparently Good Kernels Burst
All Right at Times and
at Others Fail.
ARE TWO main REQUISITES
Ears Should Be Stored in Cool, Well
Ventilated Place and Not Permit
ted to Dry Out Too Quickly
Keep Mice Away.

1t is matter of common experience
that pop corn varies greatly with re-
spect to popping. A lot of pop corn
may pop all right at one time and not
at all at some other time. Again, lot
of apparently good pop corn may not
pop satisfactorily at any time.
The two main requisites for good
popping are: u Good pop corn that
has moisture content of about IL
per cent: (2) heat sufficient TO cause
the kernels to begin to pop in about
1Ia minutes.
A number of causes may interfere
with the popping of pop corn. The
principal ones are: CD Having the pop
corn too dry; (2) having the heat too
great, or not great enough; (3) har-
vesting popcorn before it had ripened :;
and (4) allowing popcorn TO mix with
field corn or sweet corn.
Should Ripen on Stalk.
Popcorn should ripen fully on the
stalk and should not be harvested un-
til the husks are white and the stalk is
dead and has lost its sappy condi-
tion. The ears should then be stored
in cool, wel-ventilated place. Small
wire crates are good receptncles in
which to store them. If stored in a
warm room in the house, the ears will
soon dry out 50 much that they will
not pop. Popcorn that has become
too dry for popping may he restored
10 condition again by putting it in a
cool and well-ventilated place, prefer
ably outdoors, for n few weeks. 1t
should, however, be protected against
mice.
Popcorn will OF its own accord take
on or retain the right amount of mois-
ture under natural or suitable atmos-
pheric conditions, as on shaded
porch on the north side of a building.

PERFECTION OF MODERN ART
Small Wonder Young Lady Artist Ex-
ulted as She Gazed on Her
Completed Painting.

The young lady looked before her
with entraEced gaze. She looked low
ingly on the purple sun as it rose in
the West.
Her eyes fingered appreciatively on
the bright green sky, with splotches of
red and orange stretched across its
spacious breadth.
Clasping her hands with joy, she
gazed at the flimsy, odd-looking clouds
of yellow, splashed across the heavens.
Several fishes were flying in the sky,
while birds could be seen in the waters
below, swimming and drinking.
Then her eyes turned toward where
few ocean liners sped across the
horizon. with sails unfurled; fisher

side cleaning some fish, seated on n
one-legged stool in a patch of red
grass.

AMI that is why l want 10 teIl
everyone something. When Santa
Claus takes his rest some might say
he was taking his holidays or his vaca-
ton.
but do you know what Santa Claus
calls 1t?
He says 1t Is his rest but he doesn't
say that he is taking his holidays or
his vacation.
NO, he doesn't say that. And why?
Because Santa Claus considers 1t his
holiday when Christmas time is around
just as everyone considers the Christ
mas holidays the real holidays.
"Others may be going to parties and
others may he going TO great celebra-
tlOns and concerts and sleighing and
coasting parties. and though Santa
Isn't on any of these parties he is on
his holidays.
"He loves the Christmas holidays.
for he is the one who helps TO make
Christmas what 1t Is"
Santa Claus took a pull at his long
white beard as he stopped and thought
for moment and then he continued:
"Ah. the Christmas holidays are, my
holidays, too. Yes, for l am happiest

Santa Claus Is given the great big
honor of making children happy on
Christmas day and the joy of Christ
mas day lasts longer than one day.
He is given the chance to make the
toys and to give the presents to the
children.
"He is the one who can find their
stockings and see them as they are
sleeping.
He can make them joyous and glad
and gay with his presents.
"And during the Christmas holidays
ana before the Christmas holidays he
gets letters from the children and they
tell him of their secrets, of what they
want for presents and of how they've
been all through the year.
