Eparinncs Gainee While In the Drug Business. I have been troubled more or less in the last five years with kidney trouble and from the experienpe I gained while in the drug business and from different cases where I have sold Swamp-Root with perfect satisfaction to those who purchased it, and as I never had a single com- plaint regarding the medicine \Yh_l]c I was in business, I was in a position to know that it was a great prepara- tion and it did not fail me when I used it myseilf. It has certainly af- forded me great relief at all times that my kidneys have troubled me and I would not be without it. I al- ways recommend Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root to my friends as I be- lieve it to be a medicine of great cu- rative value in the diseases for which you recommend it. Sincerely, D. A. KOONCE, Columbia, Ala. Personally appeared before me, this 13th of September, 1909, D. A. Koonce, who subscribed the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact. C.

A sale of relics of Eugene Aram re- minds us that Lord Lytton’s Aram was a very different personage from him who was hanged at York, who, Judging from the published account of the trial, was merely a felon of ‘he baser sort. He associated with low compani>ns, married a low wife and practiced swindling with a miserable creature whom in his younger days he was assoclated with in stealing flower- roots—for they were both gardeners— end finally murdered him to secure a few pounds, the proceeds of a swindle. Aram possessed a vigorous intellect, had mastered the learned languages, had read every classic that came in his way, and, says a distinguished writer, when the learned felon came to make his defense all Britain was astonished by a piece of pleading which, if given to the public among the defenses and under the name of Thomas Lord Erskine, so celebrated for this species of composition, would certainly not be deemed unworthy of the collection of its author., Tubbs Bilious Man’s Friend.

Much has been said through the dit- ferent farm and poultry journals in favor of the Indian Runner duck, but I believe there are few who realize the | possibilities and advantages of rear- ing ducks of this breed. i As I have been raising this breed of ducks for a few years, I can testify that they deserve all the praise given them. They are not an entirely new vari- | oty, having been imported some 15 years ago from the West Indies, thus it receives the name of “Indian” with the “Runner” added to denote its chief peculiarity, its rapid movement over the ground. They are great foragers and pick up innumerable bugs and insects. This elone should give them an important place on every farm. Owing to their extreme hardiness, it {8 quite an easy task to raise a large flock of Indian Runners, with very little trouble. They are never bothered with lice, there are no roosts.to keep clean, and no expensive houses are needed; just & low-roofed shed to protect them from the severe winds and snows in winter, | says a writer in the Farm Progress. | The houses should have a dry: floor- | covering of straw or some kind of lit- ter, as they must have a dry place on which to sleep. ‘While they are not a land fow], it is mot at all necessary to have running water for them to swim in, all that is needed is plenty of clean water to grink, placed in a vessel deep enough Indian Runner Drake and Duck. for them to cover their heads, as the nostrils are liable to become clogged with mud or feed. The young ducklings grow and ma- ture so quickly it is indeed very integ- esting and fascinating to raise them. ‘We have had young ducklings that weighed three and one-fourth pounds when 60 days old; when matured they will weigh from four and one-half to five pounds, their meat exceedingly tender, and juicy, of fine flavor, equal or su- perior to spring chicken. Their eggs are large, about one-third | larger than the average hen egg, and |same locality become infested with Being a quick maturing fowl makes ] Burglars Ald Collections, “Being a moral member of the com. munity, naturally I deplore burglar- (] fes,” said the church treasurer. “If 1 studied the welfare of the church alone I should encourage them, for next to the burglars themselves, the people who profit most from an epi- demic of small robberies are the churches. 3 “With peace and safety reigning in |4 a neighborhood, householders leave |] most of their money at home when they go to church, consequently they contribute in driblets, but just let that burglars and everybody takes his money to church and increases his contributions proportionately.” DOUBT DISAPPEARS No One in Bemidji Who Has a Bad § Back Should Ignore This Dou- careful attention. ble Proof.
