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.
Get a medium or large size bottle i'm
mediately from any drug store.

SIMPLE REMEDY FOR
AlLING %CARBURETOR
Troubles Are Many and Varied,
Some Common.
Little Water in Gasoline Will Cause
Disturbance Because II Is Heavy
and Settles at Rottom-Keep
Gas Strainers Clean.

"Carburetor troubles are many and
varied, but there are some which are
common, and, as a rule, the remedy is
simple In these cases" says William H.
Stewart jr., president of the Stewart
Automobile school. "A little water in
the gasoline will cause a lot of trouble.
Water Is heavier than gasoline and
settles at the bottom. Therefore, when
the fuel Is low in the tank, any water
is likely to be drawn into the car
buretor.
THE carburetor sometimes acts like
a man when lmbibing too much liquid
refreshment. 1t has a tendency to be-
come Ill. This indicates that the float
valve mechanism is u of order. A
leaky float will cause the same trouble.
If the valve is to blame this may be
determined by looking at its seat. II
the seat is rough 1t should be carefully
ground in with oil and emery by ro-
tating the spindle on its seat A bent
valve spindle will also cause flooding.
In this case remove the float, place the
spindle on a block of wood and
straighten the bent part with a few
light taps from n lead hammer.
SHOULD the engine balk suddenly
ans the ignition system be found to
be in good shape, the feed pipe is
probably choked. Open the drain valve
of the carburetor and If the fuel does
stream after the float chamber is

Not Capable.

Five business men compose the
Terra Haute school board. Their du.
ties are manifold, but still there are
a few things they cannot do. Even
the public recognizes that, as his
little story will prove. A teacher, who
has n very uncouth child in her room,
sent the mother n note, telling her
that If she did not have the child
cleaned up and her hair trimmed she
would report her to the school OIL
clals.
The next morning the child returned
clean, and with her hair bobbed. She
also carried a note which read: Dear
Mlss-This is to certify hat the
school board did not bob my child's
hair. l had n respectable barber do
it."-Indianapolis News.

BOY MEMBERS OF M
Lawmakers OF Extreme Youth Who
Have Been Prominent in the
British Parliament.

The appearance of children In Brit
ish elections is not II novelty, but they
have been accustomed hitherto to take
"A more or less passive part, being
driven round the constituency accom-
panied by placards on lines of please
vote for my daddy" and similar APP
peals to the supposed sentimental side
of the electorate. Canning always
kept an eye on the sixth form at Elton,
in the hope of finding possible recruits
for the commons, but 1t is not record
ed he thought it necessary to begin
this watchfulness when the senators
of tomorrow" were only thirteen. And
yet the thing is more or less in ac-
cord with the spirit of the age. We
have poets six years old, academy
artists in their early teens, novelists
of the nursery, and sonneteers of the
schoolroom, so why not have political
orators of the fourth form?
Nay, it would be possible even to re-
port cases when young persons not
much more than thirteen years ole
sat, spoke and voted in the house o
commons. The "younkers," as the Purl
tans called them, found little difficult!
in evadlng the age limit. A Lord Tor
rington Is said to have taken part In
debate when only fourteen, and n Her
bert was Il member at fifteen. In the
tenth year of James Is reign there
were 40 members not more than
twenty years old, and some hardly
sixteen. Waller sat before he was
seventeen, and Charles James Coz at
nineteen, though Fox was a finished
man of The world at that age.-Man.

After twenty miles of brisk driving

Coral AtoIIs.

According TO the Investigations of
Seurat among the Pacific islands, there
is IA slow elevation going on there,
which, by lifting the reefs gradually
above the waves, preserves them from
erosion at the top, M enables vegeta-
ton n certain animal forms of a
terrestrial character to exist there.
This is quite in opposition to Oar
wins idea that the atolls were formed
by the gradual submergence of small
Islands, that the coral insects built up
encircling reefs as the islands sank.
Seurat shows that the elevation OF
he Islands is a general phenomenon,
but variable in amount, some islands,
like Aukena, In the Gambler archlpela-
go, rising rapidly, and others very
slowly. The fora and the fauna
of these islands are confined to very
few species, although seen from a dis
tnnce, some of them appear to be very
rich in vegetatlon-Christinn Science
