Important to all Women
Readers of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous. irrita-
BILE and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp-Root, the great kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, will do for
them. By enclosing ten cents to DIR.
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel
Post. You can purchase medium and
large size bottles at all drug stores.-Adv.

Curious Clock.

Everybody stops to look at clock
in the offices Of the Manufacturers
association in Seattle, Wash. 1t is a
curious timepiece, the works of which
are incased in hollow section Of a
Douglas fir log, about 250 years old.
The section Of the log serves admir-
ably as a dial for the clock. The ap-
pearance of the clock is not it's only
claim to distinction. It's size only
warrants more than ordinary interest.
The dial of this clock is more than
three and a half feet in diameter and
the minute hand more than four feet
long.

City of Many Names.

Detroit, in times past the pride Of
divers monarchs, has also been the
bride of divers fortunes, and as such,
sometimes divorcee and sometimes a
Woeful widow in mourning for a lost
ideal or treasure, has had as many
names. You-do-te-ga was the city's
first title, after which came Wa-we-a-
tun-ong, then TOgh-saghfondie. Others
in brief use were Tuechsa Grondle,
Karow-ta-en, and Fort Pontchartrain.
The name Detroit was finally adopt
ed after the settlement officially be-
came a town 116 years ago, according
10 POlk'S Detroit directory.

Benefits of a Swimming Place fol
Bismarck's People Shown

Conclusively

Grand Forks $4,000 swimming pool
has proven one Of the most attract
i've spots in that city during the
months just past.
This is the report received here by
those interested in Bismarck's prof
ected $4,000 swimming pool which
will probably be built next spring in
Custer park by the city commission
erS.
The pool at Grand Forks is smaller
than the one proposed for this city,
being $50 feet by SO feet, little more
than one-half the size of Bismarck S
pool. According to the Grand Forks
Commercial club, which has written
the local Commercial club about their
pool. an average attendance of 400
bathers and sometimes as high as 600
people take advantage of the cooling
waters.
The pool is open from a. M. to
s p. m. and one day in the week is
called family day at which time
boys and girls, men and women can
use the pool at the same time An
attendant and a life guard are pres
ent all the time and since the pool
has been open not one life has been
lost.
The money was raised by popular
subscription to defray the cost of con-
struction, the city donating $500 for
the purpose, School children obtained
large amount of the subscriptions
raised and the balance was contribut-
ed by the business men of the city

YOUNGSTER FLIES
OVER CITY SUNDAY
WITH J. G. CAMERON
Lee Hughes Has Wonderful Time
and Fools Teacher With
Aid of Birdman

The fulfillment of boyish ambition
was achieved when Lee Hughes, son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. Arnold Hughes took a
ride with Lieut.. J. C. Cameron in his
airplane Sunday afternoon.
Lee has been greatly excited over
Lieut.. Cameron's exploits during the
past week and had begged his parents
so insistently to be allowed to visit the
skies that they at last consented.
In fact it was so bad, so his school
mates say that Lee had a little diff
ficulty in school over the subject. Lee
failed to ask the teachers permission
to look out of the window one after
noon when Lieut.. Cameron sWooped
low over the city and for leaving his
seat and being inquisitive, was kept
in after school.
After the class had been dismissed
his teacher said, snow Lee seeing that
you were so anxious to look out OF
the window without permission this
afternoon, Hyou can look out OF the
window for several minutes now and
watch for the airplane.'
Lee, somewhat abashed, did as he
was told. He had no sooner reached
the window to prepare for his lonely
vigil when he turned to his instructor
with yell of delight and said, "Oh
look, there goes Cameron now" And
by some trick Of fate, Lieut.. Cameron
appeared just short distance above
the school in full view of the excited
boy, thus mitigating Lees punish
n,ent someWhat . ...
Lieut.. Cameron, having heard OF
the episode, thought he would give
the youngster a good thrill, did a
couple of spirals before bringing the
machine and the happy Lee back to
earth.
"Oh, father, it was great said Lee
as he climbed out of the airplane's
seat

Attacking the majority report Of
Chairman Lodge, Senator McCumber
denounced most Of the majority
amendments as Selfish immoral and
dishonorable and charged that they
seek to isolate the United States
from the rest of the world and aban-
don our allies"
To the substances of some of the
proposed reservations Senator Nc
Cumber's report declares, there can
be no serious objection. But against
the manner in which they are asserted
do hope earnestly protest. They are
couched in a defiant discourteous and
ovenbearlng manner and seemed in
tended to express a jingoistic spirit
that ought to be eliminated from
American craftsmanship"
Scoring the committees reserva-
tions to article 10 of the League of
Nations covenant Senator McCumber
said it really is an amendment "pure
and simple" and designed to make
the United States entirely out of the
league.
Special Opposition
Special OPPOSITION was expressed by
Senator McCumber to the proposed
amendments to the Shantung provi-
sion. BY this amendment he said
Japan would be kicked out" of the
league by the United States and Shan
tung possibly left to China.
Calling attention to what he term
ed the failure of the committee ma
jority to explain the purposes Of the
league Senator McCumber said
No Word As To Purpose
''Not one word is said, not single
allusion read concerning either the
great purpose of the league of nations
Or the method by which those pur-
poses are to be accomplished.
Irony and sarcasm have been sub
stituted for argument. 1t is regret
able that the animosity which centers
almost wholly against the league
should have been engendered against
a subject SO important to the worlds
welfare. 1t is regretable that the con-
sideration of a matter so foreign to
partsanship should be influenced by
hostilities toward or subseryiency to
the president"
Analysing the committee amend
ment to give the United States equal
vote in the league with England, the
British colonies was unnecessary"
The plan Of giving each member
nation one vote without regard to size
or Importance was the only possible
plan the senator argued adding that
to all intents and purposes the British
colonies are independent
With his report Senator McCumber
submitted six reservations he cham
pioned as substitutes for the commit
tee reservations. These recently were
made public
