Interesting Facts Gathered During thv' Week by Our
Regular Correspondents.
TURIN.
MT. CARMEL.
A number of people probably do not
understand the object of the. Ordinary
in appointing land processioners for the
several militia districts of the county.
For their enlightenment the following
explanation may hr* of interest: The
duties of the processioners are mainly
to determine land line disputes between
contending parties where they fail to
agree when other measures provided by
law prove fruitless such as a re-survey
by the County Surveyor, or the efforts
of referees or arbitrators come to
naught. Rut few trees, hedge rows, or
other landmarks, now remain to show
where the original lines were defined;
hence misunderstandings and disputes
between landowners have arisen in late
years that frequently resulted in tedi
ous and expensive litigation, and some
times in bloodshed. Here is where pro-
cesHioners are called in to settle dispu
ted lines. Men are more sensitive about
land lines, perhaps, than upon any oth
er question touching their property
rights. „

Doctors in all parts of the country
have been kept busy with the epidemic
of grip which has visited so many homes.
I’he symptoms of grip this year are
often very distressing and leaves the
system in a run down condition, partic
ularly the kidneys, which seem to suffer
most, as almost every victim complains
of lame hack ami urinary troubles,
which should not be neglected, as these
danger signals often lead to dangerous
kidney troubles. Druggists report a
large sale on Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
which so many people sav soon heals
and strengthens the kidneys after an
attack of grip. Swamp-Root is a great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy, and
being an herbal compound, has a gen
tle healing effect on the kidnevs, which
is almost immediately noticed in most
eases by those who try it. Dr. Kilmer
«ic Co., Binghamton, N. V.. offer to
send a sample size bottle of Swamp-
Root. on receipt of ten cents, to every
sufferer who requests it. A trial will
convince any one who may be in need
of it. Regular size bottles 50c. and SI.
