punched cattle.
Away back yonder." he said in the
range days in my state Jack Moore was
farmer Of the O bar r. on the Cheyenne
river, just on the other side of the Black
Hills. Jack was not only a good coWman
but Jack was also good sport and il
greyed his Missouri soul that the . bar
X had not found in all its saddle string
in one lone summer a cayuse that won Il
single one OF the many dashes with which
the boys had enlvened the round-ups; and
So when booted and spurred he started
to market with the beef herd in the fall
he announced to the boys that he pro-
posed to buy some critter down where he
sold the cattle that would pass for a COW
pony and that would restore the luster of
the O bar X. While the proposition did
involve a departure from sporting virtue
the boys We're agreeable to it.
Now, while Jack was good cowman
he was no sort of a match for the slick
boss traders down at Kansas City, and
the smooth and perky animal for which
he bartered most of his summers wages
after the nine days drive back to the
ranch was about as weary and ornery a
looking critter as ever was seen in that

Samuel Cntermyer of New York. who

the House conducted an extensive in

will appear before the Senate banking
and currency committee tomorrow morn

the committee Yesterday afternoon de-
cided to invite Frank \. fanderlip p.
president of the National City Bank OF
New York. to discuss the currency bill
before the committee. Later Vice
President Talbot of the same bank will
be invited to appear.
The committee has decided to have in
attendance an expert from the Office Of
the controller of the currency to keep
the committee straight on technical
questions during the examination of wit
nesses in future.
w. w. Flanagan of Montclair. y. j,
was before the committee yesterday. He
approved the bill in principle. but sug-
gested a number Of amendments.
Senators Question Provisions.
His examination developed an inclina-
ton on the part of Senators Reed OF
Missouri and Hitchcock of Nebraska L.
question various provisions of the meas
ure.
Senator Hitchcock questioned the.
banker closely as TO the possibilitN~'
of the proposed federal reserve board
expanding and contracting credit
throughout the country to suit its po-
lftical purposes and of the Regional
reserve banks exercising baleful
influence over member banks through
the regulation of loans and discounts.
On the latter point Senator Reed
asked several questions. indicating
that he feared that the power con-
ferred on the regional banks would
enable them to dominate not only the
banks but the industrial institutions
in their districts Mr.. Flanagan said
he expected no such evil results from
the operations of the bill.

4 VALUABLE SUGGESTION
: Important to Everyone

1t is now conceded by physicians that
the kidneys should have more attention
as they control the other organs to re-
markable degree and do a tremendous
amount of work in removing the posons
and waste matter from the system by
filtering the blood.
Duding the winter months especially,
when We live an indoor life, the kidneys
should receive some assistance when
needed, as we take less exercise, drink
less water and often eat more rich heavy
food. thereby forcing the kidneys to do
more work than Nature intended. Evil
dence of kidney trouble, such as lame
back, inability to hold urine, smarting
or burning, brick-dust or sediment, sal
low complexion, rheumatism, may be
weak or irregular heart action, warns
you that your kidneys require help inn
mediately to avoid more serious trouble.
An herbal medicine containing no
minerals or opiates has the most healing
influence. An ideal herbal compound
that has had most remarkable success
as a kidney and bladder remedy is DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root.

Swamp-Root by mail, absolutely free.
