HUSBAND AND WIFE BOTH SAVED FROM SUFFERING I wish to tell you the good results myself and husband received fro mDr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. About eleven years ago I had a severe attack of La Grippe and was confined to my bed about eight weeks under the doctor's care. He pronounced my case kidney trouble and rheumatism and not re ceiving the results from the doctor's treatment I should have reneived, I decided to try Swmp-Root. After tak ing several bottles of Swam;,-Root I was able to got up and attend to my work. About a year later my husband was pffecled with a severe attack of kidney trouble and doctored for some time with the doctors and received no benefit. Knowing of tha good I had received he decided to try Swamp Root, His condition was such that he was confined to his bed and words cannot tell how he suffered, but after taking Swamp-Root he was relieved so he could go on with his work with out pain. I wish ti heartily recom mend Swamp-Root to all persons af flicted with kidney and bladder trou bles and you may publish this letter If you wish. Yours truly, MRS. A. E. BRIGGS,. Eldred, Pa.

Happy home memories to look back upon is a gift which every mother should plan as definitely to give to her child as she plans definitely to give him an education, sound health and good judgment. First of all, then, it seems to me we owe our children memories of a beautiful home; a home of simple com mon sense; a well-ordered home. This would seem to me a child's very first right. And next, it seems to me, he has the right to memories of beauty in the home. Children are far more suscep tible to beauty than many of us real. ize, and certainly the effect of beauty on the child's life can hardly be over estimated. Further, home to be a delightful memory must have the beauty of so ciability. It must be a place where people come to share its benefits, and its ideals. That home can hardly be called a home 'which does not open, its doors often. Desides being a healthful place, a peautiful place, a sociable home, if /it is to afford us enriching memo ries, must be an intimate and sympa thetic place, possessing that finer in timate sociability which .grows up be tween the true home and its inmates. In all right living and thinking we are partakers of a kind of immortality, for death does not touch these things. -Laura Spencer Porter in Mother's Magazine. PLAN VACATION FOR HEALTH Period of Release From Toli Should Be Wisely Spent, or it is Worse Than Useless. Ostensibly you go on a vacation to and or to improve your health, re marks the Philadelphia Evening Ledg. er. But how many achieve it? To most of us a vacation is a respite from toil, witi a license to overeat, oversleep and overdo everything that we take in normal doses during the period-of hard labor. Who is there who hasn't returned from a vacation spoiled by indigestion, excessive play or a lazy indulgence in doing nothing, with the conviction that the pleasures and increased health he expected to find were a delusion? Tho best vacation is not so much freedom from the necessity of work ing as it is a change, new scenes, new people, new ideas, all taken in mod eration. As such they are a tonic. When you start forth, just to avoisi the necessity of calling in a physician to diagnose your ailment, take the advice of Jonathan Swift ante consun% "the three best doctors in the world -Doctor Diet, Doctor Quiet and Doc tor Merryman." They will tell you to eat moderately of digestible foods, to let alcoholic liquors alone and then to remember, as Solomon said, that "a merry heart doeth good like a medicine." While your sins must be atoned for .n the next world, you have to pay for your follies also in this one. EAT WITHOUT FEAR OF INDIGESTION OR SOUR, ACID STOMACHI Sustint relief!

MARL FROM ASHLEY RIVElt, Stato Contraets With Virginia.Caro. lna Interests tp Supply Farmers' Needs. Columbia, March 7.--"Because of the imperative need for lime on South Carolina soils, for several years I have been working with all the energy at my command to at least get a start made iipoh the development of the large marl beds in the coastal plain of this state. At last it can be announc ed that this development, so full of hope and promise for the future, is under way; that one of the richest beds has been opened, and that a now 30,000 ton annual capacity plant is in full operation, turning put a ma terial of greatest value to agriculture at this particular time,. the fertilizer situation being so acute that under the new act of the general assembly the State department of agriculture has contracted with the owners of the plant for the entire output to be sold to the farmers of the state, at as near the cost of production as possible; that the railroad rates have been carefully adjusted by the State railroad com mission; that until June 1 at least material carrying over $1 of actual values above the lime content values will be delivered to fargiers, for cash, in 30 ton lots, for around an average delivered price of $2 to $2.25 per ton in three-fifths of the State; that the price of $1.25 per ton at the mine on Ashley river is to include all ex penses of handling and the State will have to bear no costs in this regard." The above was Commissioner Wat son's way of announcing yesterday the opening of the first marl plant in the State, and he added: "I believe a mdvemet has now been launched that means more to the future of farming in our State than anything we have ever under taken. And its real significance is largely in the fact that the beginning is being made with the aid and co operation of one of the largest fer tilizer manufacturing concerns." Important in its bearing on the future is the statement of S. T. Mor gan, president af the Virginia-Carolina Chemical company, and the Charleston (S. C.) Mining and Manufacturing company: "While the supply we can furnish this spring is of necessity very limit ed if it is demonstrated that the farm ers of your state need this material we are prepared to put out any amount that may be required. As yot know we have enormous deposits oi this marl, and the amount to he pro duced is only measured by, the con struction of additional plant capacity.' DON'T SCOLD, MOTH ER!
