THE OLD SONGS AND THE NEW. Stephen Foster and Ragtime Music E Read Ad in Daily Democrat. modern ragtime music so-call-ed, may be considered but a temporary aberration. A tew years ago the popular airs were taken from the light comic operas, or from the sketchy music of the vaudeville artist. These have given way to varia tlons on the plaintive negro airs oi the old south and will in turn lead to .eomething else that happens to catch the popular fancy. But the simple songs of our fathers —the beautiful music and the heartstirring words will again come into their own. And when they do the great American balladist, Stephen Foster, will be recognized as one, perhaps more than any other, caught the spirit of his time, and rendered it into music and words that were sung by millions of his country men and women. Foster was born in Pittsburg. Penn-

When only sixteen years of age, he wrote his first song, while clerking in a little store in Cincinnati. It was called “Open the Lattice, Love,” and was soon followed by “Uncle Ned”— which at once caught the popular ear. and was sung all over the country. Then came “O, Susanna”— popular with the minstrel troupes —and for which he received a hundred dollars. His “Old Folks at Home” was pub--1 shed in 1850—and brought him five hundred dollars from the then famous Christy minstrels. For copyrights of this song he recieved, first and last, nearly $15,000. Among his most popular productions were “Old Black Joe,” “Old Kentucky Home,” "Old Folks at Home,” and “Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming.” These touching and beautiful compositions are all to be found in “Heart Songs”—that wonderful song collection now being offered by this paper for fixe coupons and the cost of.

I suffered such great pain that the doctor had to take my urine. After the doctor had treated me for weeks, I did not get any better. Remembering that a few doses of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root completely relieved my mother-in-law, after all the doctors who had called on her care had failed to do her any good, I asked my husband to get me a bottle of Swamp-Root, which he did, and I took it and threw the doctors’ preparations away, because immediately after I started taking Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root I was greatly relieved. My husband was so pleased he said I should take one dozen bottles of Swamp-Root, but by the time I had taken seven bottles I was completely restored to health. That was six years ago and I have not taken any medicinee since. My weight is 195 pounds, have three children, do my own work in a house of twelve rooms and keep boarders. Very truly yours, MRS. ANNIE BAUGHMAN, 657 Newell St. Barberton, Ohio. Personally appeared before me this 19th day of December, 1914, Mrs. Annie Baughman, who subscribed the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact. W. A. MORTON, Notary Public. Letter to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N.Y. Prove What Swamp-Root Will do for You. Send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y„ for a sample size bottle. It will convince anyone. You will also receive a booklet of valuable information, telling about the kidneys and bladder. When writing, be sure and mention the Decatur Daily Democrat.

The sufferer is in constant dread, the water passes sometimes with a scalding sensation and is very profuse: again, there is difficulty in avoiding it. Bladder weakness, most folks qnll It, because they can't (jontrr.-l urin.ifii i.
