All the blood In your body passes through four kidneys "nee every three minutes. The kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil­ ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fall to do their work. Pains, aches and rheu­ matism come from ex­ cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. 7 Kidney trouble "causes quick or unsteady beast beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney- poisoned blood through veins and arteries. it used to be considered that only urinary trouWes were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin­ ning in kidney trouble. If yon are sick you can make no mistake by tint doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swinp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases and is sold on its merits by all druggists in fifty- cent and one-dollar siz­ es.

' T „ , • u <x The First Fly Fishttfe Doubtless the reason why artificial flies were originally invented was be­ cause it was Impossible to use the smaller and more delicate natural files as baits on the hook. The first fly fisher cast his eyes about him in search of something that would answer in Imitating the flies upon which the trout were feeding. Feathers were natural­ ly the first materials thought of, and the old red cock's hackle was the first of all the artificial Insects, the old, old Adam of them all. The breed Imml been increasing for several hundred years and numbers 2,000 or more at the present day. Of salmon flies alone there are several hundred patterns. These belong to the lure order mostly, as do many of the large flies used for bass and trout. The little old red hac­ kle remains a good fly to this day and is put upon bodies of many colors, pea­ cock hari being perhaps as well liked as anything; red wool is favored by many.--Forest and Stream. , ' *? . ^ \ r a ' Indians and War Pawilt 'Ifae Indians have a tradition that tells how the custom of painting their faces originated. A certain big chief while hunting deer was chased by a lion and fell exhausted, calling upon the Big Bear, which Indians believe was the grandfather of man, to save him. The Big Bear heard and went to the man's assistance, scratching his foot and sprinkling the blood over him. No animal will eat bear or taste his blood, and when the lion smelled it he turned away. But in doing so he scratched some of the blood off the In­ dian's face with his claw by accident. When he found himself unhurt, the Indian was so thankful that he let the blood dry on his face. With the marks of the lion's claws this gave the effect of stripes, and ever afterward when going on hunting expeditions for man or beast the Indian painted his face in stripes as a charm against dancer. . The Left Hand. It Is grange that so strong"#! dice against the left hand has lived and increased for centuries when there is no natural or physiological reason for It. Examination of the skeleton of a person who was strong, healthy and well formed in life shows that the bones of the left hand and arm are just as large and capable as those of the right. The study of physiology shows, too, that the muscles and ligaments and cartilages that fastened that per­ son's arms to his body and gave them the power of motion were made to do their work just as well on one side of the body as on the other. If the left side was the weaker, it was because of the failure to exercise it as freely ads the other.--Scrap Book, ' ?

A school ma'am near Antioch has all cares to date discounted and marked down. When a pupil swears in sohool, thus violating all roles of school ethics and all principles of gentlemanly conduct does she / Tell him to be ashamed of himself eyery day for nineteen days? Use the paddle on the ner of his anatomy ? Tell his par and mm commend tfe* hickory Not she. Instead she stands him in the middle of the school room, orders him to swear in a streak for fifteen minutes and tkmm washes his month out with soap* It works; Becently this gallant little school ma'am, who. took hold of a school that no one could handle because of the bad boys, was horrified to hear one of her boys, whom by the way she controls, ut­ ter a naughty word in her hearing. "Stay after school, John," aheordacafl John stayed to see what wonfclllappoa This is what did happen: "Stand up," said the teacher. John was curious and he stoo£. "Swear," said the school ma'am and there was a steady glitter in her pretty eyes that boded no good for the sheepish John if he did not swear. He started in, bat soon foand he was a mere tyro in the art, that there were perhaps others who could do the job better. He hesitated and again saw that steely glitter. So he resumed. The plucky school teacher made the boy swear for fifteen minutes straight. Then she got a rag and some ordinary laundry soap and made him wash out his month. There is one boy near Antioch at least who never swears. In fact he may be the next president of the village anti- profanity league. The same teacher had tronble with the stock rural "rubberneck," the stu­ dent who rises out of his seat and cranes his neck towards the window every time he hears a rig go by. The school ma'am took a few samples of this kind of pupil and made them sit on the outside window sills of the school house windows with their legs dangling and the chill winds blowing. They "rubber" no more. ^ The village of Antioch is fowft ftt its praise of the girl and she has received an offer for a term of several years. Antioch wives with profane husbands are thinking of trying her methods and Antioch husbands with "rubbering" wives are thinking of using the'Tubber- neck" cure. The teacher is an exoellent one and not the least excellent part of her work is the methods that she usee to tame the country students who cope under ber care, such as the above two. Do Not Crowd the Simifc The first warm days of spring bring with them a desire to get out and enjoy the exhilirating air and sunshine. Chil­ dren who have been housed up aU win­ ter are brought out and you wonder where they all came from. The heavy winter clothing is thrown aside and mauy shed their flannels. Then a cold wave comes along and people say that grip is epidemic. Colds at this season are even more dangerous than in mid­ winter, as there is much more danger of pneumonia. Take Chamberlain's Cough Bemedy, however, and yon will have nothing to fear. It always cures, and we have never known a cold to result in pneumonia when it\is' used. It is pleasant and safe to take.
