- We are, in the United States under the Party Sys-

men elected not to make certain issues triumphant.
For this each party sraddles every far
it can.
In the political conventions each party stradded
the question of KnownOthingism, Ku Kluxsm, Roman
Catholicism, the tariff and every other plain issue
Men would vote if they had opportunity to vote

There are many kinds Of complexes-hate

inferiority complex is one of the commonest
forms of this trouble. It consists of a hid

ardice, peevishness and whining resentment.

Trouble and Never

Applicants for Insurance Should
Use Swamp-Root

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon 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 Of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
80 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. DIR. 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.,
Kilmer q Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing, be sure
and mention this observation-disclosures.

CRECORY'S RELATIVES

NTHEN Gregory was growing up,
w he had two grandmothers to visit.
One lived in a great big house in
town. Gregory remembered that house
stuffed full Of the spoils of yearly
trips ''to the other side" There were
cabinets and shelves and tables ciut-
tered with dust-covered objects of art.
Some had been shipped by careless
housemaids, some broken and glued
hastily SO that the edges showed black
and sticky. No one knew anything
about any of them; some were pres
ents of the white elephant variety,
and some priceless antiques.
His other grandmother lived in the
country. In his school days when
things went wrong, he would imagine
himself back in the green-shuttered
white cottage, where, in the low-ceil-
inged parlor, fire on the hearth
threw its light over the orderly room.

and the Eighteenth century cup and

the pattern of the carefully darned
blankets on his bed upstairs, and he
knew that the lemon drops would al

Then Gregory grew up. 1t was a
question in his own mind, as in every
one else's. which Of two nice girls he
was going to marry. Even after his
wedding he would ask himself why IT
had been Mary. Not that there was
the least doubt in his mind that 1t
was Mary lie wanted. But why?
Gradually he satisfied himself with the
happiness of his life, and left the
question blissfully unanswered.
