# You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why 1t is that 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 in need of it.
 prominent druggist says 'Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a preparation I 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 fulfills all most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri- nary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
 You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address Dr. Kilmer Co.,, Binghamton, N. r., and enclose ten cents; also mention this paper. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug stores.

 '"That makes no difference" said the naughty little Girl-Dou. 'T am above you; that you can plainly see"
 Boy-Doll had to admit that this was true; he also knew that on the same line with Girl-Doll hung a Worsted Boy dressed in blue, and toward him Girl-Don had looked when she spoke of marrying one who was her equal
 Wooden Boy-Doll was very unhappy, for he knew no way of getting up where Girl-Doll was hanging and he was sure she never would come down to where he sat on the floor of the shop window.
 At night he could hear Girl-Doll and Boy-Blue talking and he heard her tell him that all that separated them was the Jumping Jack that hung between them.
 "Oh, dear" thought Wooden Boy, instead of one rival I have two. I never will be able to win her. Even if I could be hung on the same line, there would be many between us."

ROSE.

ID OSE Dy any other name would N still be a rose, according to ety. moIogists.. The fortunate possessor of one of the most popular flower names has a cllarmingly fragrant origin. It seems that all countries and languages agree in expressing a rose by it's color. Even the Syrian name for the Oleander erose laureD is rodyon. Greece pro duced a Rhoda, which has since come to be modern name of wide vogue.
 The first feminine names to be con- nected with the fragrant flower called a rose were Rohais and Roesia, which, curiously enough, are said to come from the French and Latin of hros, meaning fame, rather than from the, flower. England's most famous Rohais was the wife of Gilbert of Gaunt. There were many Roesias among the De Bohuns and De Veres and the wife of Fulbert de Dover in the reign of Henry IT was so called.
 Ireland adopted the English form and changed 1t to Rose, whereupon 1t found vogue in all classes and Is still one of the most popular peasant names. Germany took 1t and made from it the diminutives, Rosi and

The Right Thing at the Right Time

I man had better become fairly exper. ! in the gentle art of drinking tea. The idea used to be that when one | drank tea in the afternoon one must hold ones cup and saucer deftly in the left hand. It was considered quite incorrect to let 1t rest on conven- ient1y placed table or stand. But now, although we certainly do not sit at a table when we drink tea in our homes, we do not spurn the assistance of the little individual stands that come in sets of five or six and form a nest" when not in use At hotels and ''tea rooms," however, one takes afternoon tea from a table just as one takes any other meal.
 Now, of course, one is not supposed to make a meal of it' at afternoon tea. If toast and cakes are served, couple of small pieces of toast and one or two cakes should be sufficient. It is unusual to serve anything more than toast or little cakes or sweet crackers, with sometimes candies, or jam with the toast. When jam is served, 1t is usually placed in small portions on a bit of toast. When jam Is served, of course a plate must be used. Otherwise the cake or biscuit is very. often simply placed on the saucer.

 Then the heart of little Wooden Boy went pit-a-pat and he grew quite bold. "We are equal nOw," he said, don't you think we might get married?'

WHEN HE DRINKS TEA.

IN THE minds of good many young | men afternoon tea drinking is eS- sentially a feminine pastime and the young man who Is versed in the gen. tie ceremony is by these looked upon as Miss Nancy sort of person. But many of our soldiers who had been in England came home with quite a taste for the cup that cheers but does not inebriate, and before long tea will be quite the most stimulating beverage that any one can get. anyway. The prediction is made that the custom of tea drinking in the afternoon-already as popular among men women in England-will become much more general among all classes of Ameri- cans. The large hotels are preparing to see many more men in their tea rooms. So the up-to-the-minute young

FAMOUS PRODUCER
OF STAGE PLAYS
ENTERS THE MOVIES
Richard Trenton Tully, World Famous
Producer, VIII Begin PrOduc-
ton Of Big Movies.

Richard Walton Tully, famed as a
dramatist and theatrical producer, is
about to seek fresh laurels, having
just announced his entrance in the
field Of motion picture production, AS
Tully has never previously permitted
any Of his plays to be filmed, he has
q great wealth of material at hand for
screening, and has already completed
arrangements with Associated First
National for the filming of two of his
most important successes, "Omar, the
Tenmaker" and "The Maskuerader. "
All productions bearing the Tully
stamp will be personally supervised in
ever ydetail by the producer himself,
and it is freely predicted that Tully's
inventive genius and artistic percep-
lions, which have been responsible for
many scenic and illustrative innova-
lions on the legitimate stage, will find
perturbation an equally fertile ground,
with many unique and happy conceits
and effects the logical outcome.
In both pictures, "Omar, the Tent
maker" and "The Masquerader," Guy
Bates Post will enast the same roles
which he created upon the legitimate
stage, and Tully has engaged James
Young, who recently finished direct
ing Kipling's "Without Benefit of
Clergy" to direct him in these, his
first screen appearances. As Art d.
rector, Tully has engaged Wilfred
auckland, who until recently occupied
similar position with Famous-Play-
ers. Tully plans to do his pocture pro-
ducing in and around Los Angeles,
work upon the "Omar" film having al
ready commenced at the Brunton Stu
dos. Other famous Tully successes
which he will eventually screen in
clude Keep Her Smiling" 1.-THE
Flame" and "The Bird Of Paradise"
Il should not be understood, how
ever, that Tully's film interests will
in any degree interfere with his activ-
titles in the legitimate theater. He has
almost completed a new comedy which
he intends to present on Broadway
next season, and in October will pro-
duce in New York the reigning Lon
don success, 1.-THE Right to Strike"
