DR.. Mathny gave very interesting
talk on Bees and Flowers" He car.
ried small hive of bes with him for
use in illustrating his talks. He told
OF the different stages in the life-work
of the bee and how it finally dies in
trying to reach the hive with a load
OF nectar much too heavy for it to
carry. He cited the bees as an exam.
pie Of industry and self-sacrifice to
human beings. The philosophy of
the bees" is that the life of the indi.
vidual is nothing compared to that of
the whole hive. AS an example of
their industry, he said that it takes
$4,000 trips to the field to secure
enough nectar to produce one tea.

HIS THIRD RESCUE

Earl Hunter, fourteen-year-old
member of Troop IA, Syracuse, n.
Y, was riding his bicycle recently
along the bank of Onondaga creek
when he heard screams and saw a
boy being carried down the stream
which was congested with floating
lumber. Hunter, without taking the
time to strip off his coat, jumped Into
the creek, swan TO the helpless boy
and grasping him securely with one
of the holds he had learned at the
scout camp, brought the drowning
boy safely to the shore. Hunter, who
has three rescues to his credit, was
a winner of the Junior Red Cross life
saving badge last summer. Last year
Hunter pulled a boy out Of the waters
of Crooked lake. Two years ago he
rescued his small brother from
drowning at Jordan.

THREAT THAT BRINGS RESULTS
ceyionese Creditors Have a Remark
ably Effective Method of Enforc-
inq Collections.

The native of Ceylon is an intract-
able creditor. He possesses an ire
sistible method of securing payment
without recourse to the baiiffs, cita-
tions, judgments, duns or summonses
which fall like hail about the ears of
European debtors.
The Ceylonese creditor betakes him
to the house of the man who owes him
money, holding in his hand some leaves
of the heungala, an extremely poison
GUS plant. and declares that, unless he
is paid on the spot he will poison him
self.
The debtor pays up without hesita-
ton. At home he would of course
simply laugh in the face of the shoe
maker or tailor who made such a
threat, and tell him to go ahead; but
in Ceylon there is local law which
imposes AZ enormous fine on anyone
who is the cause of the suicide of an.
other. And there is no case on rec
ord in which a creditor was permitted
to carry out his threat.
The question. however, seems to be
whether in the face of an obstinate

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
mas been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root Is
soc n realized. 1t 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
tonishng 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 applications
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..
Miner q Co., Binghamton, NJ Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Advertiseme
