holes, or soft places where holes can

siphons were built down the Spring
field road-(our comment, not Tay-

thru into hole or soft spot and a

possibly repetition of the sad event
of last fall.
Mr.. Taylor ran in to show the edi-
tor. that altho he was quite correct
at writing UP meetings and speeches
from memory, yet when the speeches
we're ''trouncing" the editor as
beautifully as it was done at the
meeting in question, it was only
natural that wires should get crossed
and cement men should be made to
say what druggist did say.
BY the way. if you want any
siphons built, inquire into Taylor's
record for making the non-leak
siphons and hire him if you want to.

There is a certain man in our en-

position at present.
Some day he will be and the gang
will ask: "Where did he get his
pulp"
He's putting pressure on the rope
right now and every day the pressure
is getting stronger.
He's here early and he goes home
late; in fact we do not think he knows
anything about working hours.
He's doing more than his present
position requires and has already
worked out of two jobs that have been
given him. You can't Eeep him down.
He studies at night, reads. and. best
of all, uses his head at all times.
He makes many mistakes. but only
makes the same mistake once.
But he goes ahead and does things
Doesn't wait until he's told, but
looks ahead.
Wonderful thing this looking ahead.
and more wonderful still, you don't
have to look very far ahead to make
yourself different from the rest of the

He smiles easily and is cheerful.
We've never heard him even Sug
gest that any one was trying to get

He is too busy to think about 1t
and the crowd Vino might be trying

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
no many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bDttle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.
