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 DIR. 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 fulills al.
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

paper. Large and medium size bottles

Woman Is Glad to Return to Civ

Looks Forward to Shopping Tour Af-

Plantation With Husband

HOHolulu.-Mother Eve must have
had fearfully dull time If Eden re-
sembled her home in the South Seas,
according to Mrs. w. w. Meng, who
has returned to civilization sated with
seven months Of loneliness, barefoot
freedom, moonlight on coral strands,
and parrot chatter In sun-baked palms.
She and her husband lived an Adam
and Eve existence for 200 days on Pal
myra, a tiny island knoll 1000 miles
south of Honolulu, while they culti-
vated virgin copra plantation. Their
only neighbor was Edward Benner,
who helped them with their work.

Mrs. Meng, who has just returned

4 few months Is all the average white
woman can stand of tropical ennui and
isolation, so temptingly pictured by
the mystic South Sea school Of roman

Mrs. Meng's first question was
What are the women wearing?" Dur
ing all the time spent on the lonely
isle she had read no newspaper or
magazine; had seen no living soul ex-
cept her husband and Benner, the
family friend; no sail in the cloudless

yond the briny horizon.

Three Days Father and Son Were
Marooned.

and after reaching shore set out i'm
mediately to rescue his aged and
hardy parent
The father chose to permit his son,
forty-four years DID, to go for aid,
staying behind with few dry matches
and a few fish taken ashore before
their 44-foot cabin cruiser broke from
it's anchor and went down. The son,
taken to Kingsville by a freighter
which sent a small boat to the island,
was confident when the rescue tug
set out that he would find his father
alive.
After the Sawyers had put into a
sheltered beach on the island to avoid
a heavy gale their cruiser broke from
it's anchorage and was driven out on
the lake. Charles put out in the tender
to retrieve the cruiser, but the larger
boat sank before he could reach it.
He had a six-hour struggle to again
reach the island.
For three days father and son were
marooned, without sight Of passing
craft. They cooked fish on spits over
the fire they kept blazing day and
night. A smoke signal was seen by
the freighter Meyers, which sent a
lifeboat ashore. The boat, however,
could carry but one passenger, and
the father remained behind to wait
until the son could bring aid.
