The Courier-Journal offers its
readers chance to share in its
prosperity and at the same time to
try their skill at making election
figures. The terms OF the guessing
contest which 1t has launced, based
on estimates OF the vote to be cast

forth In an announcement In this

Quiet prevailed yesterday
throughout Belgrade, and there
were no outward indications that
the city had witnessed tragedy
that will go down in history. The
republican tendency OF the Cabi-
not is Insignificant, and when the
Skuptstcblna begins its sessions TO-

White tria, al jack son rested lts

able to secure the attendance OF
any OF It's missing witnesses. The
defense asked for preemptory In
structions for the acquittal of Tom
White, but the motion was over

extended argument by the attor-

The Civil Service Commission, In
response to request from Post
master General Payne, has made
report on the conditions prevailing
In the Washington city post.ofllce.
The report shows disregard for
public interest, aud indicates that
the Washington office was used by
the department for political and
personal purposes. The investiga-
lion shows that many persons APP
pointed by this method OF transfer
had failed in competitive exami-

great many appointments were
made, for which the commission
says there was no reason, as lists
ot e.igibles were at hand which :
could be drawn upon at any time.
Later, when congestion resulted
IN the service, employees were cared
'or on political or personal grounds,
sometimes to the exclusion Of
merit.

New OFK ClGy, NOV. y, 1JOl.
A little over a year ago | was taken
with severe pains in my kidneys and
bladder. They continued to give me
trouble for over two months, and l
suffered untold misery. I became
weak, emaciated and very much run
down. I had great difficulty in retain
ing my urine, and was obliged to pass
water very often night and day. AZ
ter I had used a sample bottle of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, which you so
kindly sent me on my request, I ex-
perienced great relief. I Immediate
ly bought of my druggist two large
bottles and continued taking it regu-
larly. I am pleased to say hal
Swamp-Root cured me entirely. l
can now stand on my feet all day
without having any bad symptoms
whatever. I was in the Hospital in
February last, before I used Swamp
Root, and the doctors examined my
kidneys and said there was no trou-
bic there, but after hearing so much
about DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, and
what it had done for other women,
l concluded to try it, with the result
that to-day I am we'll again.
