if You Need a Medicine
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 sight, 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 has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have 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 recommend, for in
almost every ense it shows excellent re
sults, ns 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.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, thr it fulfills al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri
nary troubles and neutralizes the urio
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghnmton, N. Y.,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this

THE PERFECT
HOUSEKEEPER
By JANE OSBORN j
(©, 1920, by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.)
Three times within the two blocks
that Doctor Andover lmd walked down
College street from his house had he
been greeted with the smiling con
gratulations of some neighbor or other.
If he lmd not already been sure of his
blessing In having secured the serv
ices of Mrs. Hildegarde Taylor as
housekeeper he could not but have
been after these felicitations.
"She is such a perfect housekeeper,”
Professor Ogden’s wife had cooed.
“Up to the day he died old Mr. Mor
gan had her tea biscuits every day of
his life. He couldn’t get along with
out them—and such pies!"
“Yes, indeed,” agreed Doctor An
dover, somewhat embarrassed but duly
grateful to providence for having
showered such abundant blessings on
his shoulders.
“And she’s so economical, too,” Mrs.
Partridge had said after offering the
young bachelor president of the col
lege her felicitations over the advent
of Mrs. Taylor in his home. “No
cause for your complaining now over
tho high cost of living.”
“No, Indeed,” smiled Doctor An
dover and, as he neared the corner
where dwelt old Doctor Forbes, dean
of his faculty, the fragrance of juicy
beefsteak broiling in the Forbes kitch
en came to him. He had had supper
that night from tea biscuits, tea, sar
dines in jelly and prune whip. That
as nearly as lie could remember was
all there had been to it.
Helen Forbes, not extraordinarily
young or extraordinarily slender, but
radiant and magnetic, only daughter
and housewife for Doctor Forbes,
opened the door for the young pro
fessor. The rest of the college town
had got used to Helen. Of course, she
was quite a beauty—but, then, she
was only Helen Forbes.
Nice girl, too, and u few years be
fore freshmen every year bad gone
quite silly over her; but she was a
little too old for students now. But
Doctor Andover had not quite got used
to the radiance of her, and there were
times when lie would have more eager
ly gone to spend an evening with old
Doctor Forbes in discussing college
plans and policies had it not been for
Helen. She was a little disturbing.
She didn’t quite seem to belong to the
little old college town.
On this occasion, however, it was
necessary that he consult with Doctor
Forbes. The tempting aroma of beef
steak grew even more tempting as
Helen Forbes opened the door for him.
An apron protected her light sum
mer frock, and she led Doctor An
dover rather breezily into the dining
room. "We are having dinner late,”
she said. “Dad’s been working en ex
amination books and didn’t want to be
disturbed until seven. Now, it’s
planked steak supper. Dad’s so fond
of it. You don’t mind coming right
out, do you? And perhaps we can
tempt you to have some.”
Doctor Forbes had appeared and
Helen had disappeared, to return pres
ently with the plank on which was
laid the smoking steak with the
tempting border of mashed potatoes
and various vegetables.
“We must congratulate you.” said
Helen, as she laid the plunk on the
ratlier informally set table. “1 don’t
suppose anyone can tempt you to
meals, now that you have got the
wonderful Mrs. Taylor. You certain
ly were lucky in these days, to get a
perfect housekeeper like that. And
you know she was with old Mr. Mor
gan twenty years—stayed till he died
—and she was saying today that she
expected to do the same for you.”
“Why, that’s very kind, I’m sure.”
It was then that there loomed before
Doctor Andover an image of Mrs. Hil
degarde Taylor, with her thin-lipped
and rather acrid smile, as she sat be
hind the coffee things at breakfast and
the tea things at supper, for she was
one of those housekeepers who never
fail to take their places at meals with
their employers.
Site had sat like that before Mr.
Morgan twenty years, and then he had
died. How would it be to see that
face for twenty years? Her coffee
was clear and doubtless good, but she
wns sparing of the coffee, and she re
garded cream ns an extravagance.
Doctor ARdover wns wondering
whether lie would have to drink coffee
every morning for twenty years, just
like that, or whether he would have
courage to ask to have it stronger^—
and with cream.
“She really is wonderful,” Helen
Forbes wns going on. “I only wish 1
could manage the way she does. 1
don’t suppose you could he tempted to
take a little of thiq planked steak?”
She had put quite a generous piece on
the warmed plate and was passing it
tp him.
“But, daughter,” suggested Doctor
Forbes, kindly. “If Doctor Andover
h ts had dinner, it will only be doiDg
lvhi an unkindness in forcing more
ui)on him.” ,
But Doctor Andover mumbled some
thing about “ratlier light supper,” arid
for the next few minutes joined the
Forbes household In the delectable
task of eating n perfectly broiled
planked steak.
After that, though it was sometimes
a little difficult for Doctor Andover to
walk right up to the front door of the
Forbes house when he knew he vfrould
be met there by the disconcerting
Relet. Forbes, It was even more dilfi
cult to stay away. Sometimes he
would definitely decide not to call. His
own evening repast was early and this
seemed to add to the desirability of n
short after-dinner walk down Col
lege street.
But despite his decision not to stop
at the Forbes house, he would stop.
Sometimes he was tempted even
further by the tantalizing aroma of
dinner, huckleberry pie or rousted
lamb or fresh aromatic coffee. Mrs.
Taylor’s coffee could never lie smelled
that way when it cooked. Doctor An
dover remembered that she had once
told him that the way she made it she
kept all the flavor in the coffee pot
and that was what made it taste so
good.
It was the test of good coffee, she
said, not having the smell of It escape
from tho pot But Helen Forbes’ cof
fee always smelled all the way round
to the front of the house, and to Doc
tor Andover it wns perfection in the
cup.
So it happened that quite often,
without exactly intending,to do so, the
young college president shared some
of the good things that Helen had pre
pared for her father’s dinner and al
ways when he did there wns the evi
dence of the greatest pleasure on the
part of the hospitable old professor,
who, though lie may have worn his
coats until they were shabby, certainly
did not curtail himself on the good
things of the table.
“Of course, though,” said Helen
once when Doctor Andover had come
out with an enthusiastic lilt of praise
of her cookery,- "if I were a perfect
housekeeper like your Mrs. Taylor. I
could set a better table on much less
money. She must lie quite remark
able. Why, Just today she was telling
us at the missionary society that she
can make a pound of coffee go two
weeks and the? meat bills aren’t $3 a
week. Of course, she said she couldn’t
manage that way unless she felt a
real Interest in you. You really were
mighty lucky to get her. Really, it
was quite amusing.
“Professor Partridge’s wife told Mrs.
Taylor that if you never married it
would he her fault, and then Mrs.
Taylor said that at any rate you’d
never marry for u good home and u
good housekeeper. I thought that was
so sweet of her—’’
“Yes, I am sure it was,” weakly re
joined Doctor Andover. He recalled
then that he had fried cornmeal for
supper, although he had begged the
perfect housekeeper to omit cornmeal
for a few weeks. He had never liked
it anyway, he said, hut he didn’t say
what lie felt, that he had been corn-
mealed to dentil since her arrival.
Of course it was because of the
economy in using cornmeal that she
persisted, and Doctor Andover did eat
it because he had a healthy young ap
petite and he had to eat something.
“But, then,” continued Doctor An
dover, "a man doesn’t marry for a
home or for a good cook. If the wom
an lie loves happens to he a good
housekeeper and all that sort of thing
it is Just an added blessing, I sup
pose.”
Doctor Andover was preoccupied
after that. He tried to discuss the
new system of student grading with
Dean Forbes, hut his thoughts did not
seem to collect. At a quarter to nine
lie rose to leave. Nine was the dean’s
habitual bedtime.
lie bade the dean good night rather
hurriedly, and then as lie turned to
Helen he looked very intently at her,
so intently that the radiant Helen
dropped her eyes. "I’m coming back
at half past nine. See me alone on
the veranda.”
It was a rather chilly spring night
to he philandering on verandas, but
there was a soft, radiant moon and
Helen hud swathed herself in u soft
woolen scarf and was waiting when
Doctor Andover returned.
“I want to talk to you—down here
in the garden," he said, ascending
only one step of the veranda, and
Helen slowly went down to meet him.
“It’s about marrying you that I want
to talk, Helen,” he ifaid when they
had reached the dark shelter of an old
lilac hedge. “You have always been
the kind of woman I’d want—a real
woman, magnificent and radiant and
beautiful. It’s the kind of woman I’ve
always dreamed about. But, hang it
all, I don’t want you to think I’m ask
ing you because you are such a won
derful cook and housekeeper. I’d feel
such a contemptible blackguard to
marry a woman for a housekeeper.
You know it is you, Helen, that I
want? I’ve feared there wasn’t a
chance you’d have me.”
It’s funny how gossip goes in a lit
tle college town like that. A week
later when Helen and Doctor An
dover’s engagement was announced
there wasn’t a professor’s wife in town
but had known it for weeks.
Helen, they snid, lmd always been
setting her cap for the new president.
For a time they said it seemed as If
lie might have preferred Mrs. Rilde-
garde Taylor, in spite of the slight
difference in age. And it was such a
pity he didn’t, for Mrs. Taylor was
such a good cook—such a perfect
housekeeper.
Not His.
