WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment DR..
Kilmer's Swamp Root, physicians pre-
scriptions obtained at any drug store,
may be just the remedy needed to over
come such conditions
Get a medium or large size bottle
Immediately from any drug store.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for

and mention this paper.

Dear Nomad-This regarding the

''Some years ago, in passing through
Geneva, N. Y, i was guest OF Mr.
Richard Church, an old family friend.
In talking on things of historic inter-
est, Mr.. Church paused and, STOPPING
down, reached under the sofa and re-
vealed to my expectant gaze mahog-
any box. On opening the box. he
showed me the original tiintlock pis-
tolls used in the Hamilton-Burr duel.
Mr.. Church informed me that these
same tiintlocks had been used also IN
I'VE other duels-the Wilkes-Burr duel
and the Church Burr duel. Mr.. Rich
ard Church was a descendant of the
opponent (Church) of Burr in the
Church Burr duel Mr.. Church showed
me that one of the flintlocks was
broken and informed me this break had
occurred while he was lad in shoot

Winter had come again when the
Parmalees had settled into quieter
life In New York. Brena had turned
the back of her interest upon dining
out and the amusement of new ac-
quaintances.
There is manner of savoir faire
to be acquired in it, Compton" she
admitted to her husband. II have ac-
ouired it little, no doubt-a kind of
veneer of ease which is like glass

shops when here we are in the fields
AID meadows and have really finer
home than the rich flowers"
Just then some children came along
talking.
"Oh," they shouted, "look at the
glorious goldenrods. They are the first
Of the season"
did you know that the goldcnrod is
the American national fower?' asked
one child.
'At least, it is almost always con-
sidered so, though it has not been fin
ally decided upon.
But the goldenrod Is away ahead
Of all other flowers.
"You see, so many nations have flow
ers-special flowers.
England has the rose, France the
fieur- de-lis, Scotland has the thistle
Ireland the shamrock and Italy the lily.
isn't it wonderful for us to have a
one we can all enjoy?"
All the children agreed and they
picked great punches of the golden
rods.
The flowers were nodding their heads
happily now.
Were going to be the nations flow
ers," they whispered to themselves,
and to the bumbleOees who came to
call on them and sip Of their honey.
Eyes. what care we for money and
lighthouses when the nation pays US
the honor of thinking of us for her
fiowers!" ,
The weeds felt proud they had been
friends of the goldenrods, and the gold
enrods asked the humble bees to tell
all their relations as they awoke that
they must be gay and bright for they
were to be the flowers of the United
States
And that evening, just as the sun
was setting, the goldenrods sang little
in the summer breeze, and this was
their song:
We're golden, golden, goldenrods.
And we grow all over the land.
Were bright and strong and sturdy
And we have our own meadow land,
The wind always whistles our little
tune,
The woodpeckers drum, drum, drum,
And the air always carries our
song for us
AS we gaily, cheerfuily hum.
The bumblebees buzz in the chorus,
The flowers wave the time in the
breeze,
And the song is caught up in the
branches
And sung by all of the trees
For the meadow band you surely
have heard
In the sunny summer time,
Just listen next time you're out-of-
doors
And maybe youn too hear our
rhyme.
We're the golden. golden, golden
rods,
The flowers Of the whole country

CHAPTER VIII

The extraordinary transition in
Compton Parmalee began with his
marriage.
Apparently an inexplicabie fear had
seized him within few minutes: in
applicable fear little by little took pos
session of his life and made him a
source of the contagion of unreason-
Ing dread.
There was a six-month period after
the departure of the strange bride
from Dallas wherein, whatever emo
tions of apprehension he may have
felt, struggle was made to conceal
them and to fulfill his bargain to give
Brena Selcoss the variety, content and
luxury that he had said should be hers.
He, who never had more than touched
her hand with his own cold, refined
fingers, sometimes burst forth with all
the Jealous energy he had put into his
speculations and with all the assurance
in his own mystic powers of foresight
which had made him great gambler.

Pistols That Figured in Affairs of Honor

Marks church, Rochester, N. Y. Mrs.
Harris mother was one of the Schuy-
lers, and was christened Angelica
Schuyler Church. Perhaps some read
er can give data as to the present
owner of the fiintlock. DAMON"
That the dueling pistols used in the
Burr-Hamilton affair should also have
served in two other encounters in
which Burr was concerned is a pretty
good indication that Burr kept him
self supplied with weapons. But in the
Church affair his pistols seem to have
gone to his antagonist. The veritable
weapon with which Burr killed Hamil-
ton must be valuable possession for
a collector

CHAPTER vII-Continued

Parmalee must have uttered an ex-
clamation Of triumph he alone knew
that she was wrong.
II want to make my life OF greater
service than it can be here. I am Inn
patient for richer soil in which to
grow. ] am willing to help you, too, If
] can. 1t seems a little vague to me
how | can do this and yet, though i
am very young, can live in you-I
can feel all that you feel and can
see the better part of you"
He probably thrust a glance at the
letter and looked up with that satanic
chin and upslanting eyes turned to-
ward the ceiling. He read on.
Therefore assent to your plan as
you stated 1t. Always yours, Brena
Selcoss."
Parmalee, no doubt, said to himself
that this was no ordinary letter from
the hand of girl not older than
eighteen, the brevity and the calm of
1t were symbolized somewhat by the
direct and graceful handwriting which,
with breadth of line and easy flow,
none the less stood intellectually up
on the page.
They were married one evening at
eight O'Clock in the same room In
which he had first seen her. Mrs.
Wilkie was glad to have her "home"
as she called it the center of an un-
scheduled social event which would
start all the tongues when it was in
the News the next morning. This was
the nearest she could come to the adj
venture Of a duchess and she was
willing to have the furry III her life.
1t would be she who would give our
the interviews and explain grandly
over the telephone They-the two
would be on their way to that fairy
world of money and travel and airs
and graces which had opened its arms
to this fated young beauty. The girl
would leave all her old life and its
worn dresses and cheap shoes behind
AL but one thing perhaps, and that
would be the picture of the Acropolis
In its battered frame. The fortune
that had befallen Brena had been the
very reality of all Of Mrs. Wilkes
lifelong dreams, but she considered
that for herself, there would be GER
tain crumbs fallen from the table. She
caught her breath: she had almost lost
1t when she learned from Parmalee
that he was giving the bride a check
for one hundred thousand dollars.
Not fifteen minutes had elapsed after
the marriage before there came into
the lives of the two new element.
They had been whirled to the station
and were strolling up and down as
casually as if he were debating to a
a deal in cotton.
Little by little his conversation fell
away; he muttered few last absent
minded words and it was gone alto
gether. He walked on; she kept pace
with him. He walked on in silence.
Not until she heard a strange Whit
fling noise as a sudden sucking in of
breath of one who has tainted did she
turn.
you are as white as linen" she
said, trembling.
He wet his lips and looked at her
almost snarling.
What is this fate that follows
your" he asked.
"Fate?'
Something"
why, what do you feel?" she
asked ir a frightened whisper.
Il feel fear" he said, his upper lip
fiuttering, "a horrible, unaccountable
terror"

THE GoLDENRoD's STORY

The goldenrods were nodding their
pretty bright heads.
"We are like the sum-" they said,
pretty and bright and yellow"
Near them stood some weeds which

Facts Of the Henpens

The naval observatory says no COL
lision of heavenly bodies has ever been
observed. One of the consequences
would be enormous development Of
heat and light. The so-calied novae,
or new stars-really old stars which
suddenly increase many hundred times
in brightness and then gradually fade
may possibly owe their sudden flare
up to collision with another body; but
the latter has in no case been seen.
