France Will Agree Before
hand to Open MINIS.
Great Britain is Likely to Heartily
Cooperate Also.
American Initiative Sure Way TO In.
ternationai Bimctallism.

Denver. Col, July 3.-The Rocky
Mountain News prints the following tele-
gram from President Andrews of Brown
University, in answer to query as to
his observations while abroad of the
growth of bimetallic sentiment:
Providence, X. J., July 2.-Owing to
the manifest strength of the bimetallio
interest In America there Is actually con-
siderable prospect that France will agree
beforehand to open her mints to silver II
we reopen ours. Even without such an
agreement, France is certain to follow the
United States In case France and the
United States proceed, Great Britain will
heartily. cooperate to the fullest possible
extent of coming full tender silver at
London. The India mint will reopen.
the bank of England will lay In silver
reserve and perhaps half sovereigns will
be withdrawn In favor OF silver certificates.
Further than this European bimetallists
nearly all think American initiative is
the sure way TO International bimetallism.
President Andrews was Interviewed by
O News reporter today relative to the
above dispatch. He said that his state
ment in the Western paper gave the
whole situation In a nutshell and there
was not much Of anything that could be
added to it.
British Friendliness Not Appreciated.
There is one thing, however which IL
not sufficiently appreciated In this coun-
try and that is the cordial good. willt of
the British government toward bimetal-
lism. Michael Hicks Beach, chancellor Of
the exchequer is the only confirmed
monometallist in the British cabinet
All tho other officers of that body are
either professed bimetallists Or at least
friendly TO it,
The president also called attention to
tho fact that England demonetized silver
in 1916 more than half century prior to
the corresponding actin tbcUnited States
and conseq uently 10 repeal that law in
England requires that much more In the
way of conservatism must be Overcome
than is the case here.
Mr. Melino, the French prime minister
is deeply committed To bimetallism, DIR.
Andrews said, ana In concluding tho in
terview he declared that the policy of the
United States Is TO proceed with France
and accept whatever cooperation 10
offered by England
The Conference Postponed.
The conference between President
Andrews and the committee OF the uni
versity corporation, appointed To- wais
upon him. did not take place today as ex-
pected, because of the absence from this
city of OK chief Justice Durfee. The other
gentlemen on the committee are Col. VIM.
Goddard, chancellor OF the university,
and DIR. Wayland dean of the law school
at Yale.

It: is Easy to Tell

People who fail to look after their
health are like the carpenter who neg
lects to sharpen his tools. People are
not apt to get anxious about their
health soon enough. If you are mot
quite well'' or 'half sick'' have you
ever thought that your kidneys may
be the cause of your sickness?
1t is easy to tell by setting aside
YOUR urine or twenty-four hours;
sediment or settling indicates an un>
healthy condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent de-
sire to urinate, scanty supply, pain
or dull ache in the back is also con-
vincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing
that the great remedy DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, fulfills every wish in re-
ieving weak or diseased kidneys and
all forms of bladder and urinary trou-
bles. Not only does Swamp-Root give
new life and activity to the kidneys
the cause of trouble, but by treating
the Kidneys it acts as tonic for the
entire constitution. If you need
medicine take Swamp-Root-it cures.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents
and one dollar, or by sending your adj
dress and the name of this paper to
DR.. Kilmer & Co. Binghamton, N. T.,
vau may have sample bottle OF this
great discovery sent to you free by
mail.

The Pineapple Industry at Eden.

The Pineapple Industry at Eden.
The successful and profitable cul-
ture of the luscious pineapple in this
section is mixed fact. Let those who
doubt this statement make a personal
inspection, as your correspondent has
done, and they will be convinced.
Along Eden ridge, extending for near
lv four miles south of Ankona, the
planta tons adjoin each other, making
one vast field Of vigorous plants with
. only wide paths as dividing lines be-
tween the respective properties. These
fields are mainly situated along the
top and on the gentle slopes OF the
ridge. On the east slope is the ever
beautiful Indian River and on the
west the F. G. & P. R'y., and beyond
that broad savannah. Most Of the
plantations have river and railroad
frontage. The packing houses are all
situated along the railroad fronts OF
the plantations; are we'll built and
provided with every convenience to
facilitate the packing and shipping OF
the fruit.
The main crop for this season has
been marketed but as some fruit is
continually maturing, some shipments
will be made daily until the regular
season arrives. The shipments at this
time from the various plantations ag-
gregate several hundred crates per
day and will continue to do so. The
prices now obtained are much in ex>
cess of those paid during the period
of regular shipments, and the growers
are correspondingly well pleased;
though with few exceptions, all are
we'll satisfied with their returns for
the spring, and early summer fruit.
So we'll are the growers satisfied with
this seasons results that the acreage
of nearly all is being increased, and
will be as follows: w. I'll. Harris,
Buckeye plantation, 10 acres; b. E.
Peabody, Ketso plantation, 10 acres;
M. Tibballs, Beulah plantation, SO
acres; J. T. Waftrs, Lula plantation,
10 acres; Col. Haslopp, Gracelawn
plantation, seven acres; Capt. An

drews, Sun plantation, six acres; N.
Saunders, 10 acres; Col. w. G. Winans,
Linwood plantation, 20 acres; Harry
Richards, Clearview planta ton, 40
acres; Will Richards, Pine Lodge plan
tation, 60 acres; John Miller, Miller
planta ton, 80 acres; A. A. Cox, Cliff
dale plantation, 10 acres; HI. L. Phil
Ups, Philips plantation, six acres;
Capt. C. A. Robinson, Alavista planta-
ton, 80 acres; Capt. t. e. Richards,
Eden plantation, 100. acres; L. j.
Hemphill, five acres; F. B. Richards,
10 acres; G. L. Lucas, RuNton planta-
ton, so acres; E. J. Shattuck, six
acres; D. Merwin, Is acres; j. EEL. LIE
Tournau, 40 acres; Mrs. Turner, 20
acres.
These names embrace the principal
growers of this immediate section;
and at a safe estimate, the acreage
above given will yield a sum total to
them of over 700, figuring at the
rate of $500 per acre, Some realized as
much as $500 per acre this year, and
the bearing capacity of the plants
will be greatly increased by next year.
Mr. Will Richards shipped over 1000
crates, which Melted him considerably
over $1,000; and Col. Winans realized
over $500 per acre on what he shipped,
and this from two-year-old plants.
Among the many beautiful planta>
tons and homes, that of Col Winans'
is a model; the pineapple plants are
uniform in size, large and vigorous,
and set out in his fertile fields with
the regularity and precision of the
squares on chess board. His resi-
dence, Linwood Hall, is an ideal Flor
ida home, and his hospitality ex-
perienced by your correspondents
unbounded. All the details connect
ed with successful pineapple growing,
as explained by the leading represent
tative planters, will be submitted to
the Advocate readers in next weeks
issue.-Special correspondence Titus

Don't wait for that. AS soon as You

There IA no name in this section Of the
country, connected with the medical world,
that is better known to the public than that
of Mr.. Monroe Peterson. He is situated i'll
a nice, comfortable home, with n good farm,
about four miles west Of Johnson City, ILL.,,
He is now ffty-eight years old, in a healthy
condition, and weighs one hundred and ninety
pounds. Not a more upright and honorable
citizen does our nation afford, ard he Is
looked upon with wonder, because Of Lis
healthy condition after SO long a period Of
misery and suffering.
The cause of Mr.. Peterson's long suffering
was a hurt which he received in q fall, while
running a drill in 1861, being a soldier at
the time. He has been crippled i'll his right
leg ever since that date. Sciatic rheumatism
then set in, and his leg began 10 slowly
wither away and draw up in the joint, AID
now it is about two inches shorter than the
other. 1t began to grow worse and. finally,
his whole body began to shake lik n person
with the St. Nitus' dance. His first scvere
attack was about six years ago.
There is no disease in the power Of human
endurance more awful IN lis rains cnl
Affections than sciatic rheumatism. Some
times its pain may be a slow, steady one,
while, at other times, it comes with jerks
and wrenches that seem to twist the boIy
out of all shape Of recognition. 1t seems TO
contract the muscles. drawing the body rl-
most in a knot. While this is probably the
worst stage of sciatic rheumatism, it is some
times found in milder forms. So il was
with Mr.. Peterson, but with it was a>soci-
ated a feeling and condition almost rs un-
comfortable and unbearahle. Tic body was
in q continual shake, rendering il impossible
for him to do anything. lie lad lost al
physician for relief, he was told that tie
affection might last him all his life, or..on
the other hand, it might leave him entirely
at an unexpected moment:
For over three years he was not able to
write a word. so severe was his shakir". He
could not even sign his vouchers, thereby
having to make his mark and witness il. At
this time he could not walk n stop without
aid. nor even sit down il q chair Without
assistance. So severe Vas the shaking OF
his heal that it aln"~i caused him to go
blind. He could not distinguish a rson a
