MARKS CENTER OF THE EARTH
Lofty Monument In Delhi, India,
Erected After a Meteorite Fell
Near the Spot.

The idea that the earth Is not fiat
disk, but a globe, does not seem to
have caught or" in India, for they
still talk about a certain place being
The "center Of the world"
In Delhi stands a lofty monument
that goes by name of Kutub Minor,
a structure towering high above the
temple Of which it Is a part.
The appearance Of this curious
piece of architecture Is that Of
number of tiers of columns, seemingly
tied together in bundles. At big in
tervals there are balconies.
The Kutub Minor is of special inter-
est and note in the world over which
the religion of the teacher Buddha
holds sway. Here, long ago, tradition
has it meteorite fell, sent by the
ruling powers in the mystic world be-
yond this life to mark the exact center
of the world.
In commemoration of this miracu-
lous event the Kutub Minor was erect
ed on the spot, that mankind might
never forget it.-London Answers.

GIRL OF TODAY INDEPENDENT
Modern Young Woman Has No Need
of Chaperon, Says Kathleen
Norris, the Novelist.

even in my memory girls never
were allowed to enter restaurants
without a male escort of their own
family or maid, nor did one dream
Of the theater unless similarly guard

full elder woman was never absent.
And still, in Latin countries, school
girls are accompanied to and fro with
scrupuIous care.
But our young women go their

creasing ways in casual freedom and
solitude" writes Kathleen Norris in
McCall's. "Only a few weeks ago
noticed. in the colossal dining room
Of a big department store that the
bills Of fare were actually planned to
please the delicate sex
Everywhere the world is changing
to meet her, as she changes to meet
the world, and as it would be pal
pably absurd to have her travelling
downtown in the public cars, earning
her living In some big Office, lunching
requiring the services Of a chaperon
for any other occasion-she Is begin
ming to dispense with the chaperon
altogether. The present state Of af-
fairs would not shock the retiring
guardian of maidenly modesty and
morals, because she would be simply
and utterly unable to grasp it."

BARRIERS NAMES ON MIRROR
New York Proprietor Thinks Patrons
Should Know Who Is Operating
on Them.

The proprietor of barber shop in
New York believes it is good thing
for his business to have his patrons
call each barber by name. To this
end he has had one of his Is en-
ployees who is handy at lettering
scroll the first name of each barber

each chair.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
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
so 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.
Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root 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., Bingham
ton, N. Y, for a sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

SELF-REL|ANCE
GOES BANKRUPT
Thin Blood Saps Energy-Gude's
Pepto- Mangan RebuiIds
the Blood.

Wrestling with a weakened condi-
ton of the blood is a desperate strug-
gle. Thin, watery blood deprives the
body of energy and causes a played
out feeling not unlike utter exhaustion.
A man with weak blood has not the
full use Of his powers. He lacks de-
cision, and vacillates until he loses
self-confidence.
Some men, and women too, 60 fall
tering along for months scarcely real
izing that they need GUIDES Pepto-Man-
gan, the blood-builder. But when they
have taken it for while, what diff
ference there is in the feelings! The
old-time vigor and the red-blooded hue
Of good health return. The new rich
blood gets to work, building, fortify-
ing, lifting the spirit up to its normal
standard. Physicians have prescribed
GUIDES Pepto-Mangan for years as a
blood-builder. Druggists sell it in
liquid and tablet form. Look for the
name Guides Pepto-Mangan" on the
package.

YOUNG MOTHERS!

Staunton, Va.-"During my first
expectancy my back used to ache
terribly and I had so much trouble
with my bladder that was in mis-
cry all the time, especially at night.
My appetite also failed me. These
conditions distressed me for a
month or two when I remembered
that had always heard DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription spoken of
very highly. This tonic did help me
at once and in very few weeks I
was in perfectly normal condition.
''The next time did not take the
Prescription and for three months
was at times almost unable to do
my Homework, and my baby was
very small and delicate. 1 feel
could have had a healthy baby
from the first II I had taken the
Prescription for my first child was
as healthy as anyone could expect.
Only those who have suffered, and
especially young mothers, can ap-
preciate what a wonderful medi-
cine DR.. Pierce's Fsvorite Prescrip-
ton is. Mrs. Blanche Daggy, 100

ton Of DR.. Pierce's now at your

Shingles for Trees.

The coniferous trees present much
the same aspect in winter as in sum-
mer, says the American Forestry
Magazine The arrangement of the
buds and branches of these trees is
what we should note. Buds form in
the axis of leaves and so their ar
rangement is the same as that Of the
leaves. Trees have definite plan in
the placing of the leaves-just as def
mite as the carpenters plan in arrang-
ing the shingles on house. The shin
giles are placed so they will catch all
the rain. Leaves are placed so they
will catch the sunbeams.
