Experience With
Kidney Remedy

Between twenty-five and thirty years
ago I commenced selling DR.. kilmers
Swamp Root and during all that time
have never heard single complaint from
my customers; they are more inclined to
praise it; and judging from their favor
able remarks and the repeated sales
enjoy am confident that Swamp-Root Is
a valuable medicine for the troubles for
which it is intended.
Very truly yours,

Won LIEBlG SAYS.

1t is now possible to demonstrate
with mathematical certainty that, SO
far as enriching the blood is con-
cerned, the flour that will lie on the
point Of a knife affords more nour-
ishment than four measures of the best
Bavarian beer. Anybody who drinks
a measure of beer daily would thus i'm
bibe in one year about as much nour-
ishment as is contained in a pound Of
bread. This Is the positive statement
made by Baron Won Liebig, after sci
entific investigation, in "Chemische
Briefe."

PORTO RICO FOR PROHIBITION.

The Sixty-fourth congress provided
in the Porto Rican citizenship meas
ure for prohibition In the island sub
ject to a referendum of the people
within five years. Hoping to cut off
the educational campaign of the drys,
the liquor interests forced an early de-
clsion, and the question will be voted
upon at the general election in July.
The natives do not want any more
rum, 1t is said, and credit for this dry
sentiment Is given to the missionaries
who have been in the island for 10
years, and to the National w. G. T. o.,
who last year sent an organizer there.
Mrs. nellie Burger, president of Mis-
souri, w. @. T. o., experienced as an
organizer in Mexico and as an all

TO BE EXPECTED,

"More whisky consumed under pro-

telling the truth! Anyway. as The

mayor of a city ought to be enforcing
the law instead Of Dragging about law

THE sAMkER's STANDPOINT.

The effect Of prohibition In well nut
by Hon. Nicholas Iserguine, inspector
OF state savings banks Of the Russian
empire, who. while Visiting in Chicago
gave an interview to the Daily News:
"Our country is bone dry to the ex-
tent that not even beer or mild wines
can be obtained. We are fighting In
the world war. with every available
man at the front, yet since the out
break of the war the deposits In our
state savings banks have increased
from 1890. 600, 900 rubles to 5000. OOO,-
600 rubles.
"Thus In deposits we have about
doubled in less than three years the
amount accumulated in 70 years previ-
GUS to the outbreak Of the war, for
our state banks are about 20 years old.
This vast increase means nothing else
than the enrichment Of. the poorer
classes. They have become the capt.
talists through the mass Of their saw
ings.
There have been many other graft
flying results" he continued. "Insanity
has decreased to a minimum. There
are almost no mental disorders among
the soldiers at the front. whereas In
the Japanese-Russian war these formed
a serious problem. Most of the Rus
sian homes are OF wood and in olden
days the fire menace was constant and
dreaded. Conflagrations have been re-
duced 90 per cent In towns and cities.

pended his earnings about once

NIX CHRISTMAS
WITH BUSINESS
Rotarians Plan Christmas Din
ner For Children and Hear
DR.. l.. M. Raker Talk

Rotarians mixed good fellowship
with plans for Christmas and fuller
understanding of the tremendous
demand for shorthand writers and
stenographers in these war times at
the annual meeting of the club at
the School of Commerce, Maike.
Square, with ID. L. Nj. Raker, the
head of the institution. as host.
Mr.. Raker addressed the club on
the work of the school, which has
become one of the largest and most
influential business colleges in the
east, with affiliations extending to all
the larger schools and commercial
school organizations of the country.
Mr.. Raker said that he has been
compelled to enlarge his school this
year, but has not been able to keep
up with demands. The government
and private business is taking young
men and women before they have
CON pleted their courses and good
salaries are the rule. Further en-
largements are contemplated, he
said.
The club is preparing to entertain
more than 500 little folks of both
sexes at a Big Brother Christmas
dinner to be given in Chestnut street
han at noon December 81, for which
the Rotarians will bear all the ex-
penses. Little people who might
otherwise have no Christmas feast
from to IL years of age, are being
listed for the event, which Chairman
john II. Nixon says will be one of
tire best in the history of the club.
The Rotarians Will take the chill
dren to the hall in automobiles and
the lesser ones will be returned by
machine after the dinner. Candy
and gift for each child will be a
part of the celebration.
At the conclusion of the meeting
lunch was served.
