THE SECRET OF SUCCESS.
Genuine Merit Required To Win The
Peoples Confidence.

Have you ever stopped to reason why
il is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real cur
alive value almost sells itself, as like an
endless chain system the remedy is rec
commended by those who have been ben
Gifted, to those who are in need OF it.
A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example DR.. Kilmer'S Swamp-Root, a
preparation have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommendl for in
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits. as many OF my customers TESTIFY.
No other kidney remedy that know OF
has so large a. sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony OF thousands who have
used the preparation. the success OF DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact
that if fulfiIs almost every wish in over
coming kidney, liver and bladder dis
eases. corectS urinary troubles and NEIL
tralizes the uric acid which causes rheu-
matiSm.

The Hon. VIM. J. Bryan has come out
for woman suffrage in formal announce
ment made public few days ago. He
declared that he would ask no political
right for himself that he was not willing
10 grant his wife, and announced his in
tention OF supporting the proposed State
constitutional amendment extending the
franchise to women TO be voted upon in
Nebraska next November. Woman, Mr..
Bryan said, had proved herself equal to
every responsibility imposed upon her
and would not fail society in this emer-,
gency. Above all other arguments in ia
vor Of giving her the ballot he placed the
right OF the mother to voice in the
moldiDg OF the environment OF her chill
dren. "The mother" the Secretary said,
"can justly claim the right to employ
every weapon which can be made effect
i've in the protection OF those whose in
terests she guards, and the ballot will put
within her reach all OF the instrumental
ties OF government, including the police
power"
The support OF Mr.. Bryan will give the
cause OF equal suffrage a big boost, and
il will inspire its advocates to renewed
faith and increased zeal. Years ago Mr..
Bryan advocated an income tax and was
hooted at. 1t is now the law of the land.
He advocated election OF United States
Senators by popular vote and they laugh
ed at him. 1t has come to pass. He
stands for woman suffrage-it will surely
be brought about.

The following is an interview with
Count Leo Tolstoy in 1910, written by
his grandniece for the Chicago Rec
ord-Herald, in which he predicts the
present war.
Il see floating upon the surface OF
the sea OF human fate the huge sill
hOuette of nude woman. She is
with her beauty, poise, her smile, her
jewels-a super-Venus Nations rush
madly after her, each OF them eager
TO attract her especially. But she,
like an eternal courtesan, flirts with
all. In her hair ornaments, of dia-
mOnds and rubies, is engraved her
name, "COmmercialism." AS alluring
and bewitching as she seems much
destruction and agony follow in her
wake. Her breath, reeking OF sordid
transactions, her voice OF metallic
character like gold, and her look of
greed are so much poison to the ma
tiOns who fall victims to her charms
Three Torches of Corruption.
And, behold, she has three gi
gantlc arms with three torches of
universal corruption in her hands.
The first torch represents the flame
OF war, that the beautiful courtesan
carries from city to city and coun-
try to country. Patriotism answers
with flashes of honest flame, but the
end is a roar of guns and of muskets
"The second torch bears the flame
of bigotry and hypocrisy. 1t lights
the lamps only in temples and ON
affairs of sacred institutions. 1t car
riesthe seed of falsity and fanaticism.
1t kindles the minds that are still
in cradles and follows them to their
graves
