II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

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 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 / 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 q
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp proof is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflis al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
and inclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores.

ACID INDIGESTION

OF THE innumerable glands with

secretes mucus and another pepsfn.
Water and mineral substances In

blood-vessels In the upper part OF the
mucous membrane, and the proper
chemical action between them pro-
duces hydrochloric acid
This acid combines with pepsin and
mucus to form the gastric juice
which digests the albuminoids or pro-
teids received into the stomach and
which include meat, fish, milk, eggs,
etc.
This gastric juice is made or Sc
GREETED principally from one to three
hours after meal.

''There are certain months in the
year I like" said Mrs. Bison, other
wise known as Mrs. American Buffalo.
"And what, pray rell, are they?"
asked Mrs. European Bison.
Mrs. European Bison is of the buff
falo family and is near relative of
Mrs. American Buffalo. Her legs are
longer, her body shorter, the hair on
her head and back is not so thick,
while that on her tail is thicker.
She is a good deal shorter on the

Ancient Gems on VielD
in Wisconsin College

The Oldest manufactured jewelry In
the world, ivory, deer horn and stone
beads used as ornaments by cave men
and women of prehistoric Europe, was
recently brought to this country by
Alonzo w. Pond of the Beloft college
museum, and is now on display there.
Besides the beads, which we're found
in the Cave La Blanchard, department
of Dordogne, France, the sharp blades
and stone drills with which the beads
were pierced are also included in the
collection, Science Service says.
In order to display the collection to
the best advantage, the various beads
have been strung in the form Of a
necklace similar to the kind which
may have been worn more than 10000
years ago.

Highways Said 10
Need Thick Edges

That highways should be designed
with extra thick edges is indicated by
a survey OF where, on the road, auto
mobiles run, made by the United States
bureau of public roads. This investi-
cation showed that motor trucks are
habitually driven closer to the edge
than passenger vehicles and that the
heaviest load placed on the pavement
comes about six inches from the edge,
says Science Service.
Drivers of speeding vehicles tend to
crowd closer to the center. Too high
crown to the highway or bad
shoulder also cause machines to run
nearer the middle. Highways should
be at least Is feet wide and not over
20 feet wide for two-way traffic, the
experts declared after the observa-
lions.

DEVILS DARNING

EEW people realize what great
1 mass of persistent superstition
underlies our modern culture-how
though the temples of Isis and Osiris
are crumbling by the banks of the
Nile; the "stars glimmer through the
loops of time" in the Roman coli
scum, Thor and Odin reign no longer
in the Norseman's heaven and Stone
henge lies DrUidless upon Salisbury

DAYS when these things belonged to

from all these various sources ap-
narently indestructible and forming a
part of the lives of the people In the
present day.
The superstition regarding the
dragon fly or, as it is popularity called.
the devils darning needle, is an in
heritance from Morse mythology. In
Scandinavia the dragon fly is called
the trolls needle, or trolls spindle,
and is regarded by Norwegian chill

The mouth is the original form of the
sunerstition and the reason for this
10 apparent. The trolls hated noise
above all things-it reminded them
of the day. when they fought with the
gods and Thor threw his hammer
after them. Children are apt to be
noisy and thus awaken unpleasant
recoIIections; wherefore the trolls
needles sew up their mouths to keep
them quiet. In Icelandic literature
the trolls were giants; but in Morse
literature they later became dwarfs,
