If 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 plain-the article 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
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 DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I have sold for many years
and never hesitate to rec ommend, 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 DIR.
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
Swamp-Root by Parcels 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.

LEADERS ARE, WORRIED
Strike Epidemic in Berlin Caus-
ing Great Anxiety.
Gas Workers Compel Granting of Six
Hour Day and Large In
crease In Wages.

Berlin, Jan. 25.-Socialist leaders
are showing uneasiness at the strike
epidemic in Berlin, and particularly
the strikes OF the electric, gas and
other municipal workers whose posi-
tion enables them to extort compliance
with their demands from public or
private employers.
In common with the bourgeoise
press, the Socialist Vorwaerts points
out the disloys, nature of the strike
of electric workers by which hundreds
of thousands suffered great hardships.
The aldermen of Charlottenburg, u
working class district of Berlin, at a
common council meeting criticized the
workers attitude. The criticism came
from members of all parties.
The employees Of the city gas works,
who were granted an eight-hour day
only recently, have now, under a threat
to paralyze the gas supply, compelled
the granting of a six-hour day and an
increase in wages amounting to 49,
100000 marks annually.

Leaders Oppose Meeting.

Paris. Jan. 25.-The Echo de Paris
says President Wilson may be offered
the presidency Of the commission Of
the league of nations. BY the COM
mission of the league of nations prob
ably is meant the permanent execu-
tive body for the conduct of the pro-
posed leagues affairs.
Russian leaders here think that the
decision of the supreme council of
the peace congress to invite ~bolshevist
leaders to a conference constitutes
the greatest victory that bolshevism
could ever hope to attain. 1t would
not be surprising, however, IL the boil
shevists would refuse to participate
in the meeting, they say, using the
sama impairment language" which
they have already adopted in their
communications with President Will
son.
Sergius Sazanov. former Russian
foreign minister, and Prince Lvov are
united in their opposition to the plan,
insisting that the nonbolshevist ele-
ment of Russia, which is largely in

Wilson Endorses lndemnitles.
During consideration of the question
of r~eparation at the meeting of the
supreme wal council, the Paris edition
of the London Daily Mail says, Presi-
dent Wilson agreed to the principle
that Germany must be made to pay
indemnities in addition to the full cost
of reparation.
At the instance of the British repre-
sentatives. the newspaper adds, dis
cussion was also begun on the ques-
tions of the abolition of CONSUMPTION
and general disarmament. 1t says it
is possible that the plenary session Of
the peace congress will give some at
tention to these questions.
In the future, the Daily Mail says.
there viii be n full meeting of the
full peace conference each week.
The second session OF the peace CON
gress will be open to the press like
the first.
The first subject will be interna-
t!onal legislation on labor. Various
national delegates have been prepar-
ing written statements of their views
and these will be received by the
congress and referred to a committee,
which will endeavor to amalgamate
them into a general project.
