Cordially yours,
BURRIS A. JENKINS.

The Sun believes that our people
should make friends of those fair
minded and influential white people
who are willing to help us in the
struggle for justice and opportunity
which we are waging, and if the 49,
900 Negroes who are taking the Kan
sas City Star would transfer their
subscriptions to a paper that is as
fortunate in having such brilliant
and fair-minded Editor as DR.. Burris
A. Jenkins it would do much to DEM
onstrate to those of the other race
that we appreciate the efforts put
forth in our behalf.

Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly In direct touch
with the public, there is one prepara-
ton that has been very successful In
overcoming these conditions. The mild
and healing influence of DR.. Kllmers
Swamp-Root Is soon realized. 1t stands
the highest for It's remarkable record
OF success. L.r, az
An examining physician for one of
the prominent Life Insurance Compan-
les, 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 Amer
lean people, and the large majority of
those whose applications are declined
do not even suspect that they have the
disease. 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 s. Co., Binghamton, n.
