II You Need a Medicine
tOu Should Have the Best
Dr.. kiImar's Swamp Root

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 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,
preparation 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,
10 many people claim, that it fulflls almost
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder ailments, corrects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism.

Swamp Root by parcel post Address DR..

PEKING, July 15.-For the first

hidden City twelve years ago, when
he was forced to abdicate the throne
of China, the youthful Hsuan Tung
has been permitted to venture out

upon which the young monarch gazed
for the first time.
The summer palace, which but for
the revolutionary outbreak in 1911
and the establishment Of the republic
might today have been Hsuan. Tungs
summer residence, was built by the
empress dowager with funds diverted
from the purpose for which they
were designated, the building of
navy. Fifteen million taels, repre-
sentinG at that time approximately
slo.000,000 gold, were squandered
there. AS though in a spirit of deri-
sion, one OF the features of the palace
is q representation of small pleas
ure craft, built of marble and with
its foundations set securely in the
water on the edge of the small lake
to serve as tea house.
Hsuan Tung was accompanied on
his outing by various members of the
"imperiar household and three
daughters of a former regent, Prince

ANACONDA MISER
LEAVES FORTUNE
MISS HILDA ROSS, RODEO RIDER
AND COWGIRL, DAUGHTER,
GETS ESTATE
Gust johnson Thought To Be Inn
poverished, Leaves $4,000 in Lib
erty Bonds; Girl Quits Range To
Claim her money.

After learning that she was heir
to an estate left her by her father,
the late Gust A. Johnson of Anacon-
da, Mrs. Hilda Foss Mondeau of
Minot, ND, has arrived to settle up
the affairs of her father and to claim
the fortune left her.
Gust Johnson, the young woman's
father, was one of the old time resi-
dents of Anaconda. He had done very
little work for several years and
patched in a small house on North
Cherry street. He suffered great
deal from rheumatism, and it was
generally believed he was in strained
circumstances financially. Not seeing
any smoke pouring from the chimney
the morning of December 81, Eman-
uel Strum, one of his most intimate
friends, called to see if he was i'll.
He discovered the body of the old
man in chair directly in front of
the stove. To all appearances he had
been dead several hours, and indica-
tions were he was in the act of kind
ling his fire when stricken.
Following the removal of the body.
search of the home disclosed the
fact that he was the possessor of
approximately $4,000 in Liberty
bonds, stocks and other valuable pa
pers. The stock was all of the con-
sentative variety. Among the papers
was letter, several years old, writ
ten by his daughter The letter bore
a Brewing postmark, and inquiry
made of the authorities at that place
brought the information Miss Foss
had left there and when last heard |
from was in Minot, N d. The matter
was taken up with Minot authorities,
who discovered the young woman /
had formerly worked in the Hagerty |
hotel, but had left there to secure
work on ranch. She had said she |
preferred to ride the range in prefer
ence to inside work
When the story reached her she
had but recently finished ear-mark-
ing about 400 calves on the Bill Show
ranch, and was giving her attention
to breaking a number of bronchos.
The story was nothing short of a
revelation to her, as she had never
dreamed her father was the possessor
of so large an estate. According to
word from North Dakota, which
reached Anaconda last evening, she
didn't lose her head over her good
fortune, but returned to the task of
breaking one of the broncs that had
given her more trouble than any of
the others. After completing the task
she packed her belongings and rode
into Minot to establish her claim. {
