WONDERFUL PIECE OF WORK
Feat Of Engraver That Is Not Likely
to Be Duplicated for Many
Years.

The bureau of standards was re-
Gently asked to measure what is
probably the smallest piece Of engrav-
ing on glass In the world. The en-
craving consists Of the Lords Prayer
(57-word version) engraved on glass
In a space Of .OO1 by .OO2 Of an Inch.
The writing can only be seen under
a high-power microscope. the mangif-
cation required being from 900 to 1000
times. The measurements by which
the above dimensions were determined
were carried out in the laboratories Of
the bureau.
The extremely small size Of this en-
craving will be realized when 1t is
considered that If a square inch were
entirely filed with writing of this size
the entire Bible could be written %
times In that space-in other words,
something more than 20,OOO,0O0 words
could be written in square inch.

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it 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 1 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 go large q
SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands Who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmers Swamp Root is due to the fact
so many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney
liver and bladder ailments, corrects uri,
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric ac'd
which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle oi
Swamp-Root by parcel post. Address DR.
