get weak and lose flesh.
II such conditions are permitted to
continue, serious results may be expect
ed; Kidney Trouble in its very worst
form may steal upon you.
Presidency of Kidney Disease
Most people do not realize the alarm
Ing increase and remarkable prevalency
OF kidney disease. While kidney disor-
ders are among the most common dis
eases that prevail, they are almost the

effects, while the original disease may
constantly undermine the system.

cause of your sickness or run down con-
dition, try taking DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root, the famous kidney, liver and blad-
der remedy, because as soon as your

Holds Government Operation
of Merchant Vessels ''Utter-
" Without Merit"
EESLITTLE LEGISLATION
FOR THE COMING SESSION
Believes Practically Only Appropri-
alton Bills Will Be Enacted-Tells
of New Hampshire Campaign.

Senator Gallinger Of New Hampshire,
who reached Washington last night. in
an interview today declared the pro-
posal to enact into law the pending bill
for the purchase and operation by the
government of merchant marine vessels
was utterly without merit"
Il do not believe that Congress will
ever agree to scheme of that kind
said Senator Gallinger. though 1 notice
that the President appears to be dis
posed to push the so-called shipping
bill.
TT would prove the entering wedge OF
government ownership all along the
line, which the people of the country
have never shown any disposition to
indorse."
Cites "only Sensible Way"
He said the only sensible and feas-
ible way of rehabilitating the American
merchant marine was for the govern
ment to give the industry of shipping
the same degree of protection that is
given to industries on the land.
When that occurs, he said. there will
be no lack of ships to transport over
seas the products of the farms and
senator added that it is interesting to
note the fact that the democratic con-
tention that free ships would solve the
merchant marine problem was entirely
broken down, as 1t was pointed out by
the merchant marine commission was
Inevitable.
That was the stock argument Of the
democratic party against granting aid
to the shipping industry. it being con-
tended that If Americans were allowed
to purchase ships abroad there would
be no necessity for governmental as
sistance- That privilege was granted in
the Panama canal act, but no Ameri-
can money has been forthcoming for
that purpose, nor will it be, he said.

In their desperation to accomplish

record as chairman of the committee

his influence to divert appropriations

Senator Gallinger said he believed
very little legislation would be enacted

aged ten years, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. E. Veal af MarteI, was terribly
burned, the little boys clothing hav-
ing caught fire from an open fireplace
before which he was standing. The
little boys parents put out the flames
as quickly as they possibly could, but
not before his little body was dread
fully burned. He was rushed to
Ocala for treatment, and is now at the
home of his uncle and aunt, Mr.. and
Mrs. NJ L. Reynolds. where every at
tention is'being given him.
The l.ews from the bedside of Mas
ter Willie Tuesday night stated that
he was resting nicely and every hope
of his recovery is entertained. His
parents are with him.

THE CHAUTAUQUA NEARING
CONCLUSION


From Wednesdays Daily:
The chautauqua is nearly over, to-
day concluding the program of elev-
en- days Of varied and interesting at
fractions.
There has been a great difference
OF opinion as TO the best attractions,
some proferring one aid others an
other. but at any rate there has been
something of interest to- almost ev-
erybody, and it is quite regrettable
that more have not been in attend
ance at the chautauqua sessions.
Many think that the lecture of DR..
Cook as the most important event of
the lecture course and to many others
this lecture has no more convincing
than have been his previous asser-
tions but that is neither here no there
there but those who wanted to hear
him personally put forward his claims
had the opportunity of doing so.
Tuesday evening the programe was
given up entirely to Miss Meddie
Hamilton, the official representative
of the mother chautauqua.
At this session she gave reminis-
censes the great southerner Sidney
Lanier, of Macon, presenting in
forceably manner some of his best
known gems.
Miss Hamilton is trying to establish
a chautauqua reading circle in Ocala
and will no doubt prove successful in
her efforts.
Miss Hamilton says that the
Mother Chautauqua started forty
years oga at Lake Chautauqua, New
York, now has about one million dol
lars worth of equipment, with an an
nual budget of $4,000 and an average
attendance of $4,000. Thereare nearly
1000 chautauquas held in smaller
cities all over thes country and about
half of the American people come un-
der their influence annually and have
a chance to hear the great artists and
teachers of the country.
In the afternoon the Robley Male
Quartet gave short program OF
songs and readings, after which Miss
Meddie Hamilton gave a short talk,
stressing again the necessity OF the
chautauqua reading circle. Mrs. ID.
w. Davis will in all probability have
charge of the chautauqua reading cir
Gle to be organized in Ocala.
Miss Gay McLaren, who is the fin
est reader that has ever been heard IL
.Ocala, gave "Rebecca of the Sunny
brook Farm" an extremely beautiful
story, dramatized from the novel of
the same name. Miss McLaren made
the lovely little Rebecca a most ador-
able character, and her delineation of
the pretty story was a very great
treat.
In the evening Miss McLaren was
again the chief attraction. her artistic
rendition of sThe Sign of the Cross"
a wonderful presentation Of the
Christ-life being exceptionally fine.
She is not only a splendid actress,
having a remarkable memory and a
true insight into character delinea-
ton, but is also very attractive
young woman. and has certainly cap
tivated her ocala audiences.
