Have you ever stopped to reason why
il is that so many products that are ex-
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
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,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney.

MUSEUM GETS TURF MONARCH
thoroughbred Stallion to Be Preserved
In Institution Of Natural His
tory in England.

In order that a specimen Of the
type Of horse from which the modern
thoroughbred is derived may be rep
resented in the national collection, the
prince of Wales has sent a purebred
Arabian stallion to the South kensing-
ton Natural History museum, accord
Ing TO the London Daily Telegraph.
Dwarka, as the stallion was called,
was nearly thirty years old and had
for many years been kept at the
duChy of Cornwall stud on DartmoOr.
The horse had been I'm this country
for % years. He was originally i'm
ported from Arabia to India. where
be won various races, including the
Hurricane stakes at RawHl Pindi,
when he did the mile in l minute 53
seconds. In England he distinguished
himself in the hunting field. At the
stud he was successfully mated with
DartmOOr ponies.
The Arab horse, introduced into
Arabia from Asia Minor, has been do
mesticated for close on 1,4OO years.
Compared with other breeds 1t has a
rounder and longer body; the limbs
are shorter, but their great power Is
Indicated by well-marked muscles and
sinews.
The Arab. although small animal
| seldom exceeding II hands, is excep-
;lOnnlly hardy and is capable Of spend
ing 4S hours in burning sun with
out food or drink.
The first Arabian stallion to be i'm
ported 70 this country Was Markham

EVERYBODY SEES A
CHANGE IN FATHER
Grateful Son Says His Father
Looks Like Different Man
Since Taking TanIaC.

my father has suffered from
chronic stomach trouble for over
twenty years and has paid out thou
sands Of dollars for medicines and
DOCTORS" said G. W. SlaytOn, a we'll
known Cobb County farmer, living a
short distance out of Atlanta, Ga.
I'VE tried nearly everything trying
to cure him and he went of TO the
Springs, thinking maybe the water
might help him, but it just looked
like nothing would reach his trouble.
Then he tried dieting and lived on
liquid food until he almost starved,
but even that failed to do him any
good and he just kept going from bad
to worse.
81 don't guess there ever was
case as stubborn as his, and II there
ever was a confirmed dyspeptic he was
one Of them, and 1 guess ne would
have been one yet If it hadn't been
for this Tanlac.
THE first we heard of this medi-
cine was when my father saw an adj
vertiSement in the papers from parties
he knew IN Tennessee, who were
friends of his and he knew what they
said about it was the truth, so he got
1t right away and began taking it.
Well, sir, 1t acted just like magic
everybody notices the change in IA
ther. Why, he is just like a different
man and sits down to the table and
eats like a farmland. Only yesterday
he ate pork and turnips for his dinner
and ate so much we were actually
afraid he was going to overdo the
thing, but he laughed and said nothing
hurt him now and that he was hungry
and expected to eat and make up for
lost time.
Nov, when a medicine will do
things like that l think people ought
to know about It. and | want to say
right now that | would not give one
bottle of Tanlac for all the other
medicines and health resorts in the
country put together"
