NEED SWAMP.R001

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney and 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
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp Root, a physicians pre-
scription, obtained at any drug store. may
be just the remedy needed to overcome
such conditions.
Get a medium or large size bottle i'm
mediately from any drug store.
However. if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, n. Y, for
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper-Adv.

the popular will; that the power Of the
king of Prussia to control the policy of
the empire is unimpaired; that the de-
termining initiative still remains with
those who have hitherto been the mas
tiers of Germany. Feeling that the
whole peace of the world depends now
on plain speaking and straightforward
action, the president deems it his duty
to say, without any attempt to soften
what may seem harsh words, that the
nations of the world do not and can
not trust the word of those who have
hitherto been the masters of German
policy, and to point out once more that
In concluding peace and attempting to
undo the infinite injuries and injus-
tees of this war the government Of the

monarchial autOcratS Of Germany now

SECRETARY DANIELS DISCLOSES
SECOND THREEYEARPR
OF SHIP CONSTRUCTION
Would Build Ten Additional Super
'Dreadnauohts, Six Battle Cruisers
and 14O Smaller Vessels at Cost OF
$600, 900 900.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. has been
asked by the navy department to
authorize a second three-year naval
building program to provide ten addi-
tional super-dreadnaughts, six battle
cruisers and 40 smaller vessels ut a
cost of $6OOOOO,OOO.
This was disclosed Tuesday by Sec
rotary Daniels after his appearance
before the House naval committee to
explain the appropriation.
This authorization Is asked for the
next fiscal year and is in addition to
the 1855 naval vessels comprising the
first three-year building program au.
thorized in 1916 and the great number
of new destroyers and other special
types contracted for since the United
States entered the war. Work on the
first three-year program was delayed
by the war, but Congress has re
Quired that a start must be made or
all the vessels before next July 1.
Including the $6OO,OOO,OOO for thu
three-year program Secretary Daniel!
said the total estimates of the depart
ment for ship construction, including
armOr and armament, amount this veal
to $972, 100000. Only $2OO,OOO,OOO O.

GERMANY DESIRES.
PEACE:AT ANY COST
PLEA is NOW BEFORE THE
ALLIED GOVERNMENTS FOR
ACTION WHICH MAY END WAX.
Officers Of Supreme War Council Will
Probably Be Invoked to Prepare
Documents Defining Conditions
For Settlement.

Washington. - Germanys plea 1or
an armistice and peace now is before
the allied governments, which are TO
determine whether they are disposed
to accept President Wilson's principles
of settlements, to which Germany SUD-
scribes, and, in accord with the United
States, ask their military advisers and
those of America to prepare the terms
of an armistice which virtually Will
mean surrender by Germany.
In various public utterances, the pre-
miers and other leaders Of the entente
powers have repeatedly declared that
President Wilson's statements IN MS
address of last January and subse-
uuent addresses reflect their own
views. Something more official and
binding is required now, although it Is
regarded here as a foregone conclusion
that this approval will be registered
and that the offices of the supreme
war council will be invoked to prepare
the fateful document which will define
the conditions under which Germany
may secure relief from the incessant
hammering of the victorious allied and
American armies.
1t is known that the supreme wal
council already has given the matter
the most earnest consideration. Ane
in that connection it was recalled tina
there was no delay in notifying Gen
eral D'Espernay, the allied comman
der on the Balkan front, of the term
that should be laid down for Bulgari'
when that nation asked for an arms
tice. The general principles in eacl
ease probably are similar, but Their
necessarily will be great variance II
the details, since not only is create
, army and nation to be dealt with, bu
the question of large naval forces a
| well.

WashingtOn.-NOw that the Germans
have been cleared out OF Belgian
Flanders and much of northern FRANCE
army officials here are watching the
battlefront intently, many OF them with
n distinct feeling that new storm Oh
attack may be about to break against
the enemy.
Beyond doubt the German retirement
in Belgium has slowed down. however
IT is not vet clear whether this Is Que

first pausing place on the way to the
Neuse or the border, or to the necessl-
ties of extending allied communication
lines as the troops advance. 1t Is prop
able. officers said, that there is neces-
sity for breathing spell on both sizes.
There Is little doubt here that the
German army is headed for nothing
short of the Mouse line, and that any
pause will be but temporary to permit
reimbursement of the columns and sup
DIV lines in order that the same order-
" sequence of movements shall char
acterize subsequent retirements. Sew

project is carried out. The fact that
the allied armies are hampered by ex-
tending communication lines gives op-
portunity for such halts before Marshal
Foch's forces can come up in sufflc.ent
force to compel resumption OF the
rearward movement.
The line surrendered by the enemy
from Lille northYard to the coast 1t
was pointed out, was far stronger ana

alton OF the Flanders coast, he has fur

lines from England via Ostend, Zee
brugge or other Flanders ports. With

enemy unless he intends to fall back

Washington. - Successful British
operations ON the Valenciennes front
took on new Importance to officers
here in the light of the diplomatic stu
alton. Field Marshal Haig's armies
are striking savagely ut the hinge of
the present German line Of resistance,
and the progress already made is
thought by officers here to make 1t
certain that the German retirement.
both in Belgium and in France, will
have to be resumed without delay.
South Of the new British wedge the
French are keeping continuous pres
sure against the enemy along the Ojse-
Serre front, making 1t difficult for the
German commanders to disengage
their forces from this most exposed
sector of their lines.
In view Of the existing military stu
alton, officers pointed out that every
day was seeing the allied tactical SUI
periority increased, even as their SUI
periority in man and gun power Is in
creasing. Since President Wilson has
already pointed out to the German
authorities that the safeguarding and
guaranteeing of that superiority must
be the basis Of any armistice agree
ment, a proposition the German lead
ers accepted with the statement that
standard of military power in the
field" must of necessity govern such
terms, it is clear that the conditions
