Artificial Moonlight

with artificial moonlight after night
fall will be brought before the Insti-

The plan calls for flood lighting Of the

tributed over a wide area.
Adoption of the new scheme, 1t is

Camp Bed From Boughs

A little comfort in the camp bed
now and then, is relished by the best
Of sportsmen. Here is a way to put
a little spring In the bed underpin-
ming: Cut four saplings about eight
feet long and set the butts in the sod
on either side of a log so they cross
in pairs. Lash short sticks to the
outer ends, then lay poles across these
from end to end. Pad the poles, if
necessary, with leaves and moss. then
build your bed on top Of that. Really,
1t doesn't take much longer to make
1t than it does to tell how TO do it.

There is only one medicine that really

to be just the remedy needed in thousands
upon thousands of distressing cases.
Swamp-Root makes friends quickly because
its mild and immediate effect is soon real
lied in most cases. 1t is a gentle, healing
vegetable compound.
Start treatment at once. Sold at all
