WHY DRUGGISTS RECOMMEND
SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney liver and bladder medi-
cine
1t is a physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test Of years
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
Be sure to get Swamp Root and start
treatment at once.
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-Ady.

wonderful telescope

The excellence of the big Lick tele-
scope, and the steadiness of the air
when the conditions are good on
Mount Hamilton, are atteSted by the
statement of one authority that double
stars whose components are nearly
equal in brightness, can he measured
If the distance between them exceeds
one-tenth of a second of are. What
this means in accuracy of definition
may be understood by remembering
the fact that one-tenth of IA second is

Object Lesson for Americans.

The lesson of deforestation IN China
is one that mankind should have
learned many times from what has oc-
CURED in other places. In fact, it
may, in a lesser degree, even be
brought home to the people of Amer
lea in future years unless, through
wise forethought, care is exercised In
the preservation of our forests from
destruction by fire and wasteful Ium-
herring.

The charlady who had been brought

ish to keep the ten cents.
People are always asking me why
don't quit tobacco, and I've always
noticed that the people who regard
my little innocent habit with disgust,
have worse ones of their own. Why
don't you quit wearing sidewhiskers,
when you must know that they jar
the nerves of the fastidious, and make
you look like something that should
De in museum? What sense is there
in wearing sideboards? I'd be the
last to speak slightingly Of an infirm-
ity or deformity. If you had a game
leg or wry neck, my heart would be
full of sympathy for you. Such afflic-
tions should not be Knocked or held
up to scorn by any man; but nobody
needs TO wear Sidewhiskers. It's some.
thing that can easily be helped. You
shouldn't make caustic remarks about
the tobacco habit until you have had
those fire escapes removed.
"Old DoOlittle asks me about three
times a week what pleasure 1 find in
using tobacco. l have explained the
matter to him repeatedly. but nothing

on him. He ciings to the belief that
smoking is on a level with robbing a
church or defraudng a widow.
HE doesn't use tobacco, but he has
about every other bad habit you can
think of. When it comes TO spelling

contend that it's worse to sit on
the truth and hold 1t down than it is
to load good old briar and blow out
few reams Of smoke.
"Aunt Julia is always lecturing me
about the tobacco habit / have said
1t hundred times, and I say 1t again,
that my aunt is all wool and a yard

another guess coming. Two or three

would think the Britishers spent all

AUNT Julia thinks that anything
