Immortal Epic

The Interchangeable is a famous
German epic poem Of unknown author
ship consisting Of ancient ballads
termed sagas. In its present form ii
dates from the middle of the Twelfth
century. 1t Is divided into two parts,
the first ending with the death of Seig-
fried and the second with the death
of Kriemhild. his widow. Interest in
the Interchangeable declined after
the Reformation, but revived at the
close of the Eighteenth century; 1t
was not however, until the early part
of the Nineteenth century that scholars
realized the great literary treasures
contained in this poem. Richard Wag-
ner founded his musical drama en-
titled "The Ring Of the Nibelungen'
on this epic.

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best
Or. KiImer'S SWdmp-ROOi

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t 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 fulfil
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 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..
K liners Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so 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..

Judge Roy Campbell is person of
quiet mien and few words. Like all

likes and dislikes, and once in blue

Discussing with a newspaperman
recently the personality of a man who
takes an unlimited part in politics, the
judge said:
Hes like an electric fan-his only

air circulating, though the good Lord
knows he does enough of that to make
