They were entered upon the Laoks of the company as regular cus- tomers. In Jowa the company has 200,000 ol these receiving its annual logue regularily. 300,000 steady customers, In the entire statc there are hardly more than 250,006 farme: The rural population of the United States is estimated at| 25,000,000, through their adycrtis- ing, this mail order house has tsiab- lished a direct touch with 25, 000 customers most of them : in rural distriets. The annual catalogue has a circu- lation of not les than 5,000,000. It is the greatest advertising medium in the world but its pages are open only to the concern’s products or trade marked articles featured main- ly as trade pullers, Every 24 hours 12,000 requests for extra copies of the catalogue are received, 100,000 copies are sent out every week, Their ads are still found in the magazines. In spite of the wonder- ful circulation of their own organ they deem it necessary to use the farm papers, weeklies and monthlies, but they advertise now as much to 1'e-‘l quests for copies of their catalogue | as to sell their goods.” i The above hardly needs any com- What are you do- ing to build up or even hold- the| business that should and could be yours? 1f the mail order consider it necessary in spite of their ment except this. houses tremenduous business and the tremen duous demand for their catalogues custom- | ers when they already have 25,000,- 000 on their books out of the possible 35,000,000 would it not though it was almost suicidal for you as a retail merchant in the territory these mdil order houses cover to figure that advertising constantly and plenty of it is not essential to Yyour business. to continue advertising for seem as The owner at one time did not have a single customer.

The Duluth papers are clapping the shingle hard on Clapp. They charge he is inconsistant in opposing reciprocity, after all the protesting shouts he emitted over the Payne tariff bill.

A" VALUABLE SUGGESTION Information of Importance to Every- e. A great deal of pain and suffering might be avoided if we had some knowledge of physiology and the care of the body, particularly those parts that do the most work and should al- ways be kept strong and healthy. In an interview with a prominent physician he states that people should pay more attention to their kidneys as they control the other organs to a remarkable degree and do a tremend- ous amount of work in removing the | poisons and waste matter from the system by filtering the blood. During the winter months especi- ally, when we live an indor life, the kidneys should receive some assist- ance when needed, as we take less ex- ercise, drink less water and often eat more rich heavy food, thereby forc- ing the kidneys to do mere work than Nature intended. Evidence of kid- ney trouble; such as lame back, in- ability to hold urine, smarting or burning, brick dusk or sediment, sal- law complexion, rheumatism, may be weak and irregular heart action, warns you that your kidneys require help immediately to avoid more ser- ious trouble. An herbal medicine containing no minerals or opiates has the most heal- ing influence. An ideal herbal com- pound that has hdd remarkable suc- cess a8 & kidney remedy is Dr. Kil- mer’s Swamp-Root.

WILL *RECLAIN Is the Largest Reclamation Project Ever Undertaken by the Federal Government and Has Cost in the Neighborhood “of - $3,500,000—Holds Enough Water to Flood Two Thous- and ‘Square Miles. Phoenix, Ariz., March 16.—Prepara- tlons are well under way for the for- mal dedication by Colonel Roosevelt Saturday of the Salt. river project named after him, the largest reclama- tion project ever undertaken by the United States reclamation service. This immense dam, requiring over four years’ work and costing in the neighborhood of $3,500,000, is 280 feet high; length of base, 235 feet, and top, 1,080 feet. The dam is higher| than the Flat Iron building in New York, and would hide the capital at ‘Washington to the dome. Two four- in-hands could pass on the top. Most of the wall rests on stones big enough for a team and a wagon to stand on, and weighing sixteen tons each. [ The lake formed by the dam extends back in the valley twenty miles, and| holds enough water to flood 2,000 square miles a foot deep. The re- claimed land will make 25,000 farms each large enough to support at least five people, making homes for fully 125,000 Americans. Each acre, it is estimated, will yield yearly crops val-{ ued at §$50 to $125.

Rheumatism;: Kidiey 'Disease ‘and' | Bladder Trouble Disappear. *How To Cure Yourself. It is no_ longer necessary to spend months and months undergoing a com- | plicated treatment for rheumatism, Kidney or bladder trouble, or spend a £00d many dollars in doctors’ bills, A new treatment can now be .ob- tained which ‘seems to act more like a marvel than a medicine. This treat- ment has produced such satisfactory results in a short time that it is now guaranteed from first to last. ! There should he no more doubt about the rapid cure of rheumatism, no fears of the fatal termination of treacherous kidney disease or dropsy. ¢ Rheumatism means nothing more nor less than that vour kidnevs do not work properly. Your blood passes through the kidneys hundreds of times a day to be filtered and purified. When the Kidneys ‘are weak, the poisons are not taken out of the blood as they should be. This leads to various dis- eases, such as rheumatism, terrible Bright's disease, diabetes, dropsy and bladder trouble. The new guaranteed treatment is Dr. Derby's Kidney Pills. One day's use of them will prove their remarkable effect. M. T. Ridenour of Lima. Ohio, says: “When I feel bad in my back, I just take a couple of Derby's Kidney Pills and get immediate relief.” If you have rheumatism anywhere, back pains, cloudy. foul urine, pains in the bladder, Bright's disease or dia- betes, put your whole confidence in Dr. Derby's Kidney Pills, and you will not be disappointed. Dr. Derby's Kidney Pills are sold at all drug stores—25 and 50 cents, or will send them direct from the laboratory of Derby Medicine Co., BEaton Rapids, Mich., prepaid if you wish.
