KIDNEY AND BLADDER TROUBLE
CAUSES GREAT DISTRESS

1t gives me great pleasure to recon-
mend DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root to any
one suffering from bladder trouble.
For four years 1 was troubled by
hemorrhages from the bladder and
was not able to get any doctor who
could help me. I was in such shape
account OF distressing symptoms.
While bending over I would be strtck-
en- with such pain that 1t was impos-
sible for me to straighten up. Mr..
Henry. one of our leading druggists,
advised Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root: al
though never had any faith in patent
medicines, as last resort I purchas-
ed a dollar bottle OF Swamp-Root 7
noticed decided change and after
using two bottles was completely
cured. It seemed remarkable that I
should be cured so quickly after being
i'll so long. But since this took place
nearly two years ago, have never
been troubled and would highly advise
any one suffering from the same trou.
BILE to at least give Swamp-Root a
trial and I think the results will be
the same as mine.
Yours very truly.

Greensburg, Indiana.

14th day of February. 1913, Mr.. T. A.

statement and made oath that the

The marriage, 1t is said, resulted
from Burdens advertisement for a

was surprised when she found BurdeL

STILL GOING ON
Kansas Land Companies Fac
ing Bunch of Trouble.
Farm Loan Companies Also
Are Given a Hint.
INVITED To SHOW ITS BOOKS
One Company Selling Southern
Land Cited to Appear.
Rural Credit Loan Concerns
Affected by New Law.

Kansas land companies are facing a
bunch of trouble with the blue sky
department. In an order today, w. F.
Benson, state bank commissioner,
stated that the farm loan companies
must come under the blue sky law.
Following this statement, S. T. Seaton
of the blue sky department issued an
ultimatum to the companies selling
southern land and dropped a gentle
hint to at least one oil company.
The shake up with the land COM
panies may come Wednesday when the
state charter board meets. At least
one company handling southern land
has been invited to come to Topeka
and show its books. Similar treat
ment may be accorded other COM
panies.
It has been reported to the banking
department that companies doing bus
iness in the southern field and selling
near city garden patches to Kansas
men with money have not kept above
suspicion in every instance. Fat sal
aries have been paid officers of the
companies and big commissions have
gone to the agents. AS a result there
have been very little for the stockhold-
ers and the men who helped to develop
the corporations. On top of it all,
there has been loose bookkeeping
system and the state wants to know
more about the affairs of the COM
panies dealing in southern realty.
For Loan Companies.
A declaration has also been issued
affecting rural credit loan companies,
both organized and in course of or
ganization. AS yet there is but one
rural credit loan company in the state.
But others are in contemplation. The
statement from the banking depart
ment, backed by an opinion from the
attorney generals office, is to the eff
feet that these companies must come
under the blue sky law.
Seaton is said to have sent letter
to the Uncle Sam Oil company in
which he enclosed a copy of the blue
sky law as amended by the recent leg
islature. Through a possible over
sight, the company is said to have
failed to secure a. permit from the
state blue sky department which
Seaton believes has Jurisdiction over
it's operations in this state. Recent
ly the company conducted an adver-
tising campaign in Kansas. 1t was
the placing of this advertis-
ing that Seaton wrote to the companys S

Savages and Lincoln Wind Up
Their First Series.
New Outfielder Takes TaIliOn'S
Place This Afternoon.

The suns struggling efforts to take
the frost out of the atmosphere this
afternoon made the playing of the
last game of the SERIES with Lincoln
possible. Tonight the Lincoln and
Topeka teams go to Lincoln where
they will have a second four day ses-
sion.
Manager jackson announced this
afternoon that Outfielder Trainer Of
the Emporia Kansas State League
team, who was bought from Ira Bid
we'll by Owner Savage this morning,
would play in Tallion's place in the
field. 1t is generally supposed that if
Trainer makes as good a showing as
he did at Emporia last season, he will
stay permanently in Tallion's berth.
Tallion has not been going in his
old time form this spring. He has
made a number of errors in the field
and has not been batting consistently.
