more floating back to this country

ciety is said to be very much ex-
cited. The American girl, who halls

says he has had recent letters from
his niece in which she described
the king as a very nice and demo-
cratic specimen of royalty and said
a mutual friendship h,d sprung up
between them because of a similar
ity of tastes.
Miss Kelly wrote that the king
had received her at an audience in
the palace, but that they had really
enjoyed each other more in less
formal ways. She is an expert au-
tomobile driver and had frequently
taken long drives with the young
King Alexander On his part, she
wrote, the king enjoyed her com
pany because she was a typical
American girl who could talk on
any subject from war to the sani

flashing black eyes. Her father

nance, it has been learned that the
special state statutes require
three-fourths majority in levying
such a tax. Thus the ordinance
still remains passed, but collection
of taxes by the. pact would be vio-
lation OF state laws.
The increase tax was proposed
for the purpose of making improve
ments on Thirteenth avenue, where
work has already started in re-
Ieveling a section rendered almost
impossible as a result of land
slides. The tax increase is set at
IS cents on 500, but will not be
paid by citizens, according to the
present situation.

KIDNEY TROUBLE NOT
EASILY RECOGNIZED
APPLICANTS FOR INSURANCE
OFTEN REJECTED.

An examining physician for one of
the prominent Life Insurance Compa-
MES, in an interview of the subject,
made the astonishing statement that
one reason why SO many applicants for
insurance are rejected is because kid
ney trouble is so common to the Ameri
can people. and the large majority OF
those whose applications are declined
do not even suspect that they have
the disease.
Judging from reports from druggists,
who are constantly in direct touch
with the public. there is one prepare
ton that has been successful in over
coming these conditions. The mild
and healing influence of DR.. kilmers
Swamp-Root is soon realized. 1t stands
the highest for it's remarkable record
of success.
We find that SwampRoot is strictly
an herbal compound and we would
advise our readers who feel in need
of such remedy to give it trial
1t is on sale at all drug stores in
bottles of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents
to DR.. Kilmer & Co, Binghampton,

FORTY MILLION
REGISTERED FOR

Men and Women Will Cast
Ballots for National Assem-

BERLIN, Jan. 9-Forty million vot-

ssembly in Germany on January 10
next, it is estimated by Professor
Hugo Preuss, minister Of the interior.
In the last Reichstag election the vot-
RS. all male, numbered only 10000
200, he says. They were scattered
,ver 397 election districts. The new
lection bill provides for only 3S such
districts for the whole country which,
'rofessor adds. means more than a
lillion voters in each district.
Professor Preuss is one of the few
rominent leaders of the progressive
Bourgeoise who was given an import
ant post in the provisional govern
ment. In an interview with a cor
respondent OF The Associated Press,
he pointed out the technical difacul-
ties in the way of organizing 100000
900 voters in time for the election and
added:
Based on Secret Ballot.

gagged In issuing writs for the election
for which fully 100000 men and

"One Of the principal details OF the
radical reconstruction OF our voting
system is the original compilation OF
list Of the qualified women voters.
Then the work Of cataloguing the mil
lions of returning soldiers that are
taking up new residences Is also con-
tributing heavily to the task OF organ
izing the election.
Our aim is to make this popular
expression Of the new democracy
