THE SEGRET-,OF SUGCESS uired to Win the onfidence. Genuine Meri People’s Have you ever.Stopped to reason why it is that so many products that are extenisvely advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgot- ten? The reason is plain—the article did not fulfil the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more par- ticularly 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 cured, to those who are in need of it. In an interview on the subject a| prominent local druggist says “Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root, a preparation I have sold for! many years and never hesitate to rec- ommend, for in almost every case it shows immediate results, as many of my customers testify. No other kid- ney remedy that I know of has so large a sale.” The success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp- | Root is due to the fact that it fulfils every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder diseases, corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism. | A free trial bottle will be sent by | mail, absolutely free.

Superb was’the view from the Bat: tery in the old days, and glorious are tke wraiths who still haunt its paved and shaded places. 4 Talleyrand, se'f-exiled from France, a hundred-odd years ago often paced slowly along where thousands now move, who, perhaps, never heard of him. After Talleyrand came Louis Phil- lipe and Jerome Bonaparte, both of whom knew and admired the Battery. Lafayette walked -its sea -wall and gazed out on the bay, and here saun- tered that audacious traitor, Benedict Arnold, ruined by an ungovernable tepnper and a Tory wife. Here, in the same strenuous days, came Clinton and Cornwallis, -and here, through the vista of half a cen- tury, we witness the new world’s | loud-voiced welcome to Kossuth. Nor is the fact to be forgotten that in ancient Castle Garden; transformed from a fort into an opera house, Jen- ny Lind, one autumn night in 1850, began the triumphal progress . which made the name of that richly -dowered queen of song a household word in every nook and. corner of America.— Rufus R. Wilson’s “Rambles in Colo- nial Byways.” |DID GOOD DETECTIVE WORK Gamekeeper’s Really Shrewd Scheme Resulted In Identification of Annoying Poachers. A gamekeeper.in England awakened to the fact that in the silent watches of the night some of his pheasants were being systematically purloined. Footprints were always discernibla but, as there was nothing remarkable about any of them, they were of no value for detective purposes. They served, however, to suggest a plan. He went to the local cobbler and of- ,servant, even although those fered him a generous reward for the performarice of a very simple task. When three suspected persons sent their boots for repairs, the nails or tackets were to be placed in the soles according to different designs which the keeper would provide. The son of St. Crispin agreed to the proposal, and it was carried into effect as opportun- ty offered. i . The result was that a charge of poaching has been proved against two of the three men through the distine- tive impressions ‘made by their boots in the retentive soil. The cobbler’s connivance in the ‘keeper’s little scheme has of course, been kept a strict, secret. ; Getting Around French Law. It is against the law in France to make derogatory statements about a state- ments may happen to be true. An employer who refused to recommend a cook “by reason of her extrava- gance, impertinence, and predilection to drink” was prosecuted by said cook and fined for libel, the court inform- ing her that the truth of the charges had nothing to do with the matter. Henceforth French housekeepers, says the New York Sun, in order to evade the responsibilities placed upon them by the law have issued certificates of character in form something like the following: “This certifies that Mme. Marie, late nurse of my daughter, aged one year, did not leave her on a bench in the Jardin des Plantes and go away and forget her on October 12 last.” Available Womanhood. “The American nation will have los. considerably by having utilized in the | production a mere material wealth the best years of a great part of its available womanhood, when the na- tion itself is so much in need of sons and daughters born under the flag and reared in the traditions of all that has made the United States progressive, powerful and enduring.”—Sir Thomas Oliver. Early Printing. ‘The first book printed in the Eng fish language was not printed in Eng land, William Caxton, the English mercer, carried on Bruges. In 1469, he began to trans- late into English the “Recueil des His. tories de Troye,” anc: to supply th great demand for copies of the bool he set himself to learn the- art of printing.

Age of Peat. Natural peat, as is generally knowr, | is the product ot the partial decay ot mosses and other plants that grow in swampy places or in damp and foggy regions. Dr. Bergius, a German chem-| | ist, is said to have produced artificial | peat by subjecting a mixture of cellu- | ' lose and water to a pressure of more i than 6,000 pounds to the square inclfl and heating the mixture to about 240 | ! degrees ccntigrade. This treatment | continued for twenty-four hours trans- forms the pulp into a product the con- | stituents of which are identical with | those of peat. Calculations based on this new process show.that at a tem- perature as low as that of the earth, i it must have required 7,000,000 years to form the deposits of natural peat. i This estimate agrees roughly with the calculations of geologists.—Youth’s Companion. business in |§ printed English book probably appear. | 3 ed in 1474, and may have been printed |4 | either at Cologne or in ‘Bruges.
