Having suffered for twenty.one
years with a pain in my side, l finally
have found relief in DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root. Injections Of morphine
were my only relief for short periods
of time. became so sick that l had
to undergo a surgical operation in
New Orleans, which benefited me for
two years. When the same pain came
back one day was so sick that gave
up hopes of living. A friend advised
me to try your Swamp-Root and I at
once commenced using it. The first
bottle did me so much good that l
purchased two more bottles. am now
on my second bottle and am feeling
like a new woman. I passed a gravel
stone as large as a big red bean and
several small ones. / have not had
the least feeling of pain since taking
Swamp-Root and I feel it my duty to
recommend this great medicine to all
suffering humanity. Gratefully yours,
MRS. JOSEPH CONSTANCE,

Urges Wide Circulation of Pamphlet Stating Russia and France
 Are Ready for War.
(WNU News Service.)

Berlin, July 17.-Crown Prince Will liam is again in the lmelight and once more among the alarmists. He is recommending that all Germans read a recently published pamphlet predict ing a great European war. The pam. phlet. entitled "Germany's Fated Hour" was written by Col. Frobeus. He asserts that the French and Rus sian armaments are equivalent to preparations for war next spring and urges Germany and her allies to be ready for it.
 The crown prince telegraphs to Ber- lin that he has read this excellent article with the greatest interest, and wishes it to have the widest circula- tion."
 The Vorwarts prints a letter from a member of the reichstag asserting that the government is drawing up a bill asking for more than $100,000, 900 for strategic purposes. especially for military railway and stock

'I vii have nothing to do with the institution under its present manage ment, that Is all," he says.
 President Russell answers the criti- cism by showing copy of the report of the recent senate Investigating com mittee, which says:
 Your committee believes from evi- dence before it that President Russell is rendering a good service to his race, and that the school is on a bet ter basis than it was under it's former management"

NEGRO NORMAL LBOYCOTTED
STATE OFFICIAL REFUSES TO NO.
 TICE INSTITUTION.
Declines Also to Sign Diplomas Issued to Graduates of School Year
 Just Closed.
CWNU News Service.)


 Lexington, Ky, July 17.-State Su- perintendent of Schools Barksdale Hamlet has boycotted the Normal and Industrial institute, the negro school at this place, but he denies the charge made in a negro newspaper printed at on the school because he does not ap- prove of c. P, Russell, president of the institution.
 It was not known until the negro pa per reached here that Hamlett had re- fused to sign the diplomas of this years graduates and that the com mencement was held and the diplomas distributed in their incomplete state. Just what effect the lack of Hamlett's S signature vii have remains to be seen. Hamlett went before the last legisla- ture and demanded certain changes be made in the board of trustees of the school and has not become reconciled to his failure to accomplish what he declared them to be, needed reforms. The negro paper printed what pur- ports to be a signed statement from Hamlett.
 Hamlett denies that he gave out a signed statement to the paper or that he has sent out such notices to all county superintendents He says the statement does not represent his senti- ments.
