old PRESCRIPTION
FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it 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 fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says, "Take for
example Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, 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..
Kilmers' Swamp5Root is due to the fact
that, so many people claim, it fulfils al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle OF
Swamp Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, n. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.
Large and medium size bottles for sale
at all drug stores.-Adv.

ALLIES DECIDE ON
WAR TO FINISH
THE CENTRAL POWERS WILL GET
NO PEACE UNTIL
THEY YIELD
TERMS or TEUTONS REFUSED
War Council Holds There Is No Bass
For A Just And Lasting Peace
In German Proposals

New York.-The war is to be pros
ecuted vigorously by the entente al
lies and the United States until a.
peace based on the principles OF tree-
dom, justice and respect for interna-
tional law is obtained.
This is the decision of the supreme
war council of the countries III arms
against the Teutonic allies.
The high.sounding phrases in the
recent speeches of the imperial Ger
man chancellor and the Austro-Hun-
garian foreign minister were entirely
thrown into the discard by the coun-
Gil at it's session at Versailles, and 1t
was decided that the war would be
vigorously prosecuted until that time
comes when there is justification for
the hope that,a peace may be realized
in accord with the policies laid down
by President Wilson and David Lloyd
George, the British premier.
No Basis OF Peace In Terms Offered
London The supreme war council,
which met at Versailles, finds no ap-
Proclamation in the German chancel-
lor's and the Austro-Hungarian for
eign minister's speeches to the terms
of the entente allies and has decided
to continue the vigorous prosecution
of the war until peace can be obtained
based on the principles Of freedom,
justice and respect for international
law" This official announcement was
made here.
A summary of the official report OF
the Versailles war council says:
1.-THE council was unable to find in
Won Hertlings and Czernins recent
utterances any real approximation to
the moderate conditions laid down by
the allies governments: Under the cir
cumstances. the council decided that
the only task before them to meet was
the vigorous and effective prosecution
of the war until the pressure OF that
effort produced a change of temper in
the enemy governments, justifying the
hope of the conclusion of peace
based on the principles OF freedom
justice and respect for international
law.

unanimity of policy on measures fol

OBEY ALL ORDERS
Georgia Fuel Administration Urges
Full Compliance With
All Rulings

AIlGHld--
Nell M. Stephenson, secretary to the
Georgia fuel administration, in ATTAIN
ia. issued a statement in which he de-
clared that DR.. L. G. Hardman, state
fuel administrator, was particularly
anxious for the fullest possible COOP
Grafton between his Office, the general
public and the press in endeavoring
to secure 100 per cent compliance with
the orders from the national fuel adj
ministration in regard to the otserv'
ance Of heatless Mondays.
The state administration, however
according to Mr.. Stephenson, has not
issued any rulings which compel the
closing of stores which do not burn
fuel on Mondays prescribed in the or
der. It is not Doctor Hardman's in
depreciation of the instructions, ac-
cording to Mr. Stephenson, and as Tar
as the state administrator can sec,
there is no reason why stores which
do not consume fuel of any description
cannot remain open and conduct their
business on the heatless Mondays.
