The camera snves American Indus
try millions of dollars annually, says
the Nation's Business. A wlnlc of Its
eye, taken In one millionth of a sec

of electricity, told engineers how to
build turbine wheels that would stand
terrific strain. A crack In a labora

These are a few of the things the
camera is doing in Industry.
Not a Question of Hours!
The local railway never had been

hours late, and a passenger became

The bead of the firm looked sternly

"So you've a complaint to make, have
you?" he asked fiercely.
"Not exnctly a complaint, sir," said
the other, "but there's Just one little
matter about which I should like to
speak to you."
"I gave you more money the other
day," growled the chief. "What's It
you want this time? Shorter hours
eh?"
"Oh. no no slrl I do not feel It In

You Should Have the Best
Have you ever stopped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of tight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that hat real
curative value almost sells itself, nn like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who hnve been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recrmmend, for in
almost every cane it shows excellent re
cults, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large a
sale."
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of Dr.
Kilmcr'B Swninp-Root is due to the fact,
to many people claim, that it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You mny receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y.,
