HUSBAND OBJECTS
. TO OPEBATION
(
Wife Cured by Lydia Ei
Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound
Des Moines, Iowa.—" Four years ago
\ was very cick and my life was nearly
spent The doctors
stated that I would
never get well with-
out an operation
and that without it
I would not live one
year. My husband
objected to any
operation and got
me seme of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegeta-
ble Compound. I took
it and commenced
to get better and am now well, am
stout and able to do my own housework.
I can recommend the Vegetable Com-
pound to any woman who is sick and
run down as a wonderful strength and
health restorer.'" My husband says I
would have been in my grave ere this
if it had not been for your Vegetable
Compound."—Mrs. Blanche Jeffer-
son, 703 Lyon St, Des Moines, Iowa.
Before submitting to a surgical opera-
tion it is wise to try to build up the
female system and cure its derange-
ments with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound; it has saved many
Women from surgical operations.

Not an Endurance Test.
Two soldiers caused some amuse-
ment at a golf course the other day.
The first man teed up and made a
mighty swipe, but failed to shift the
ball. The miss was repeated no fewer
than three times.
His pal was unable to stand it any
longer.
"For heaven's sake, Bill," he broke
out, "hit the thing. You know we
have only four days' leave."
Flight of Imagination.
"I wouldn't marry Claude Sniggins if
he were the last man in the world," re-
marked the haughty girl.
"No," replied Miss Cayenne. "If he
were the last man in the world, he'd
probably be so much in demand that
you wouldn't even get a chance to pro-
pose to him."
They Fooled 'Em.
"Did anyone discover that you were
a bride and bridegroom on your honey-
moon trip?"
"No; we fooled every one. Instead
of calling each other by our first
names I called Jim Mr. Black and he
called me Miss Pinkly, just as we did
before we were engaged. We were Just
as formal with each other as strangers
would be."
A HINT TO WISE WOMEN.
Don't suffer torture when all female
troubles will vanish in thin air after using
"Femenina." Price 50c and 81.00.—Adv
Mean Giveaway.
"She is the very picture of health."
"Yes, and excellently painted."—Bal-
timore American.
WHAT EVERY WOMAN KNOWS.
Every woman takes great pride in
having her home well kept, in having
the family wash done early in the
week. Good bluing is needed even
more than good soap. Be sure to uae
Red Cross Ball Blue.—Adv.
If the preacher is long-winded the
best plan is to take up the- collection
before the sermon.

ty Business Men's Association.

the statements just published, show
deposits of $1,437,503.74, a gain of
about 30 per cent over the deposits a
year ago. The cotton season at this
time has barely, opened, and it is be-
lieved that when this gets well under

more than $2,00%000.
Horses and cattle in some sections
of Kay county are dying from the ef-
fects of loco weeds eaten by livestock.
For several years deaths of livestock

quit grazing stock on prairie land. A
concerted effort was made to eradicate
the weed, and until recently farmera
believed they had been successful.
Ingenious Excuse of Man Who Had
Imbibed Too Freely Did Not
Satisfy Policeman.
When Police Captain Patrick Cos-
tello met a man on the main street
of Dobbs Ferry loudly and joyfully
disturbing the peace of the historic
hamlet, he said: "My friend, you're
drunk, and I'll have to run you in."
The stranger drew a tattered Bible
from his pocket, and, leading the cap-
tain to the nearest street lamp, read,
with fervor: "First Timothy, five,
twenty-three: 'Drink no longer water,
but use a little wine for thy stomach's
sake and thine often infirmities.'"
The captain scratched his head and
thought. Finally he said: "What were
you drinkin'?"
"Well," replied the stranger, "the
last one was beer."
"Then," said the captain, "you lose
on a technicality, and it's come with
me."
So the stranger, who said he was
John Hasch, of the Bowery, New
York, was locked up to await the
morning session of the police court-

RELIABLE REMEDY
RESTORES KIDNEYS
For many years druggists have watched
frith much interest the remarkable record
maintained by Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder rem-
edy.
it is a physician's prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. Dr. Kilmer used it for years in his
private practice. It helps the kidneys,
liver and bladder do the work nature in-
tended they should do.
Swamp-Root has stood the test of years.
It is sold by all druggists on its merit and
it will help you. No other remedy can
successfully take its place.
Be Bure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at once.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.—Adv.
Stop using calomel! It makes you
sick. Don't lose a day's work. If you
feel lazy, sluggish, bilious or consti-
pated, listen to me!
Calomel is mercury or quicksilver
which causes necrosis of the bones.
Calomel, when it comes into contact
with sour bile, crashes into it, breaking
it up. Thts is when you feel that aw-
ful nausea and cramping. If you feel
"all knocked out," if your liver Is tor-
pid and bowels constipated or you
have headache, dizziness, coated
tongue, if breath is bad or stomach
sour just try a spoonful of harmless
Dodson's Liver Tone.
Here's my guarantee—Go to any
drug store or dealer and get a 50-cent
bottle of Dodson's Liver Tone. Take a
spoonful and if it doesn't straighten
you right up and make you feel fine
and vigorous I want you to go back to
the store and get your money. Dod-
son's Liver Tone is destroying the
Bale of calomel because it is real liver
medicine; entirely vegetable, therefore
it cannot salivate or make you sick.
I guarantee that one spoonful of
Dodson's Liver Tone will put your
sluggish liver to work and clean your
bowels of that sour bile and consti-
pated waste which is clogging youl
system and making you feel miserably
I guarantee that a bottle of Dodson's
Liver Tone will keep your entire fam-
ily feeling fine for months. Give it to
your children. It is harmless: doesn't
gripe and they like its pleasant tasta,
