WILCOX SAYS DEMOCRATS

What the Doctor Knows
KIDNEYS MUST BIZ RIGHT TO
INSURE HEALTH.

Few people realize to what extent their
health depends upon the condition of the
kidneys.
The physician in nearly all cases of
serious illness, makes a chemical analy-
sis of the patients urine. He knows that
unless the kidneys are doing their work
properly, the other organs cannot readily
be brought back to health and strength.
When the kidneys are neglected or
abused in any way, serious results are
sure to follow. According to health sta
tistics, Bright's Disease, which is really
an advanced form of kidney trouble,
caused nearly ten thousand deaths in one
year, in the State of New York alone.
Therefore, it is particularly necessary to
pay more attention to the health of these
important organs.
An ideal herbal compound that has had
remarkable success as a kidney remedy
is DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great
kidney, liver and bladder remedy.
The mild and healing influence of this
preparation, in most cases, is soon real
lied, according to sworn statements and
verified testimony of those who have used
the remedy.
When your kidneys require attention,
get Swamp-Root at once from any phar-
macy. 1t is sold by every druggist in
bottles of two sizes-50c and $l.00.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper. Adv.

SPORTSMENS CLUB IS RA|DED
RECORDS OF CHICAGO ORGANIZE
TON SEIZED.
Mayor Thompson Once Head of SO.
ciety-Operation of Slot Machines
In City Is Charged.

Chicago, Oct. 3.-Detectives operat,
ing under the direction of States At

Assistant States Attorney Berger
issued a statement that the raid fol-
lowed Investigations which indicated
that officials of the club, including Chief
of Police Charles G. Healey, were con-
nected with the installation of slot

Police Chief Denies Charges.
"The club was used to drive into
it's membership persons doing business
with the city hall-handbookmark
dive keepers, saloon keepers and keep
ers Of vicious resorts" the statement
added.
Four police captains were fount
guilty last week by the city civil serv-
ice commission on charges Of inefi-
cheney In permitting slot machines to
be operated. They were fined, sus-
pended and reprimanded.
Chief of Police Healey denied Mr.

WOULD HEAL BY COLOR'S AID
Avoid Red, Green and Brown in Hos
pitfalls, Is the Advice Given
by Artist.

III. Kemp Prosser, who designed the
two interiors in the French play LA
bergette'' at the Garrick theater,
thinks persons who wish to retain
their vitality and normality in war
time should avoid certain colors, says
a London correspondent Of the New
York Herald.
cardinal red," he said, 'fs the sym
Dol of murder, hate and cruelty. Sage
green means vileness, and brown de-
cay.
Lemon yellow, on the other hand,
suggests to persons who are sensitive
to color influence, life and light. That
is why I suggest this color should
dominate color schemes in hospitals
and homes for wounded soldiers.
"In my rest room at Chelsea for SOL
diers the symbolic colors used were
lemon yellow, mauve, sapphire, tur-
ouoise and blue. A golden piano was
draped with a 1emon-yellow curtain
on which were embroidered a dove
bearing the emblem of peace, an Egyp-
tan symbol expressing the keys of life
and q white rose, emblem Of power and
silence. Beautiful lamps repeated the
colors blue, mauve and turquoise"

New ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.

A new telegraph instrument has been
invented by means of which any tele-
graph operator may send messages in
the Morse code over an ordinary tele-
phone. This new instrument can be
attached to any telephone and the con-
nection between it is purely mechani-
cal. It does not require any additional
electric circuits. The telephone key has
a pivot at the end. It produces a sharp
distinct sound and is connected with
the metal case of the telephone by two
clamps. It is claimed that Morse sig
nails sent by this instrument carry
longer distances than the human voice
over long distance telephones, SO the
telephone-telegraph can be Of great
value in both supplementary and in
verifying telephone conversation.

With the possible exception of the
