WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store, may
be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.

HER REALLY BRIGHT THOUGHT.
Mary Ellen Had ShreWd Scheme for
Making Sick Children Satisfied
With Their Lot.

Little Mary Ellen Mckee is, as she
terms it, "just half past four" and
lives around the corner from the
Union hospital in Terre Haute, says
the Indianapolis News. Recently she
received a tricycle., which she rides
morning, noon and night. AT first her
rides were confined to her own street,
but the other day she wished to ride
around the corner.
"But the little sick children at the
hospital will see you, and then they'll
be unhappy because they can't ride,
too" her mother told her.
Mary Ellen was silent a minute.
Then she said earnestly: "Well, then,
mother. I won't ride past the hos
pitai. When l get in front of it I'll
get off and push it like it was hard
work, and then they won't be unhappy.
They'll be glad they can lie in bed
and not have 10 push things like tri-
cycles"

FIND PECULIAR Stone
ON DEAD SEA SHORES

4 peculiar stone is found on the
shores of the Dead Sea and west Of it,
between Jerusalem and the vicinity of
Nebi Musa, Palestine, according to
the United States assistant trade
commissioner at Constantinople. The
stone. which is abundant, is commonly
used by the local people in making
souvenirs.
1t is a matter of common knowledge
that the edouins have used this stone
for several years as fuel, and it is re
ported that during the war it was sc
used by the Germans. It is said that
the latter also extracted oil from it
! that the Bedouins have used this stone
and "Stinkstein." In the Yarmoul
Valley, in northern Palestine. are also
found vast quantities of an oil-impre

which. when air slaked, is said to be
superior for building purposes. 1t is
reported that during the war the Ger
mans extracted oil from this substance

Making Christmas Fireproof

Under this caption, the National Board of
Fire Underwriters warns the public of the con-
slant danger of converting joyous Christmas
season into tragic holiday The highly inflam-
mable evergreen tree too often trimmed with
cotton and combustible tinsel, has been the cause
of many fire in which the home has gone up in
flames and some of its members have suffered
injury and death
The warning deserves to be needed. The joy
of the day ought not to be converted into sadness
and gloom by the neglect of a few fundamental
precautions which every parent can exercise.
The most important are set out in the pamph-
let and are quoted below:
I'm the first place, the tree should be set up
securely so that it will not easily topple over,
and it should be located several feet away from
any heating or lighting fixture. Metal tnsel
with flake asbestos and powdered mica make eX-
celent materials for effects, and will not
burn. Cotton and paper, on the other hand, are
highly dangerous. The tree should never be il
Illuminated with candles. There is some danger
from the widely sold colored electric light as
semblies due to insufficient insulation and other
causes but the hazard is small beside that of the
lighted candle

order to entertain her little daughter and neigh

top of the tree she accidentally touched her

blazed up and ignited the other decorations. The

she became living torch. Aid came too late and
she succumbed to the flames.
Smokers should exercise great care with
their matches and smoking materials and par
ents should see that all matches kept in metal
or china containers out of reach of the young
Isters.
'If the call for Santa Claus is crying need
that will accept no substitute, the impersonator
should avoid long cotton 'whskers' and should
keep away from lights and open fires. AS an
additional protection, the costume used may be
partially fireproofed with the following solution:
Two ounces of carbonate of soda, two ounces of
ammonia carbonate, two ounces of boric acid and
five gallons of water. The mixture should be
allowed to come to boil and should then be
strained and sprayed upon the material to be pro-
tected. If Santas clothing that of anyone else
does catch fire, the victim should be rolled in d
rug or wooden cloth and the flames smothered as
promptly as possible. The flames should be kept
from the face.
'In order to prevent the spread of any fires
that may start bucket or two of water and a
fire extinguisher should be kept ready at hand.

ANCIENT MEXICAN
XMAS ARE UNEARTHED

To prairie dog and Zuni Indian
belong the credit for discovery of two
ancient kivas, or ceremonial cham
bers OF prehistoric Indian life in west
ern New Mexico. Valuable relics were
recovered, which. it is believed, may
throw additional light nearliest civ
ilization in this country. The find was
made while Frank W. Hodge, an arch.
ceologist of New York. and Zuni In
dian were making excavations at the
old abandoned village of Hawiku, in
southwestern Mckinney county. The
Indian noticed human bones in the
loose dirt around the freshly dug hab-
itat of prairie dog. Pursuing the
dogs underground course with a
shovel, he came TO the remainder OF
the skeleton and then to a fine piece
of prehistoric masonry, which led him
into the kiyas.
The structure was more like the
ruins in the Aztec Mesa Verde, and
Chaco canyon.
Houses built on the kivas were ap-
| parently the work of later peoples
Ten burials that were unearthed, Mr..
Hodge believes, were those of Zunis
of later times.
