Two Millions
of One Magazine

Last month the public pushed THE LADIES'
HOME JOURNAL beyond the 100000 mark. Yet
10000 persons disappointed because
they couldn't get the ma9azine!
This month we not only touch the wonderful
2-mlon mark but 80 over it-a figure that no
monthly magazine has ever reached: an un-
charted land!
The magazine this month reaches the high
mark of 1S4 pages 90 pages more than any May
number in its history.
That means the printing of 36s millions Of
pages of one issue of one ma9azine-an edition
so gigantic as to be almost unbelievable.
It required month of all-ni9hts and a1l-days
to print it.

In view of the present widespread
activity in every form of road build

the bureau of public roads emphasizes
the bearing that the location and de-

Sharp curves should be avoided be-
cause they are a menace to traffic.
The width should be ample for We

If road ever becomes of any con-
siderable importance, its users prob
ably will demand that all the sleeper

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

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 PLAINTIFF kfticle did not fulfill
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
en- 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-Roo a
preparation l 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 has so large a
sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri.
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle Of
SwampRoot by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, y. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles

HOW
RHEUMATISM
BEGINS

the excruciating agonies of rheuma-
tism are usually the result os failure of
the kidneys to expel poisons from the
system. If the irritation of these uric
acid crystals is allowed to continue, in
durable bladder or kidney disease may
result. Attend to it at once. Don't
resort to temporary relief. The sick
kidneys must be restored to health by
the, use of some sterling remedy which
will prevent a return of the disease.

brought back the joys Of life to count

matism, lame back, lumbago, sciatica,

and allied organs.
They will attack the poisons at once,

and the soothing healing oils and herbs

President Declines TO Make

BILE for results and conditions attend

The Presidents position, regarded
as peculiarly significant in view of the
recent discussion in the Senate of a
compromise, was set forth in the fol-
lowing statement issued from the
White House:
1t was learned from the highest au-
thority at the executive Offices that
the hope of the Republican leaders of
the Senate that the President would
presently make some move which will
relieve the situation with regard to
the treaty is entirely without founda-
ton. He has no compromise or con-
cession of any kind in mind, but in
tends so far as he is concerned that
the Republican leaders Of the Senate
shall continue to bear the undivided
responsibility for the fate of the treaty
and the present condition of the world
in consequence of that fate
The White House statement appa-
rently had no effect in changing the
treaty situation. Democratic leaders,
endorsing the Presidents views. de.
clared that it did not preclude a Sen

Efforts would proceed. Republican
leaders reiterated that the President

probably would be deferred until next
month, after the proposed holiday re-
