FOR WEAK KIDNEYS

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 fulfil
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 DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a
preparation I 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 that know OF
has SO large a sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmers' Swamp Root is due to the fact
that so many people claim, it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur-
mary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle Of
Swamp Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, and
enclose ten cents; also mention this paper.

SAFE, GENTLE REMEDY
CLEANSES YOUR KIDNEYS

For centuries GOLD MEDAL HARLEM
Oil has been a standard household remedy
for kidney, liver, bladder and stomach
trouble, and all diseases connected with
the urinary organs. The kidneys and blad.
der are the most important organs of the
body. They are the filters, the purifiers of
your blood. If the poisons which enter
your system through the blood and stom.
ach are not entirely thrown out by the
Eidneys and bladder, you are doomed.
Weariness, sleeplessness, nervousness,
dependency, backache, stomach trouble,
headache, pain in loins and lower abdo-
men, gall stones, gravel, difficulty when
urinating, cloudy and bloody urine, rheu-
matism, sciatica and lumbago, all warn you
to look after your kidneys and bladder.
All these indicate some weakness of the
kidneys or other organs or that the enemy
microbes which are always present in your
system have attacked your weak spots.

what you need.

London, Dec. 30.-Premier Lloyd
George, in receiving American news
paper correspondents at his residence
Saturday night as President Wilson
was ending his visit in London. and
returning to France, said that the con-
ferences with the President had
brought about an agreement on gem
eral principles. The premier said he
felt assured that matters which had
been agreed upon between America
and England would prove Of the great
est assistance in the work OF the
peace congress.
An understanding virtually had been
reached already between the entente
powers regarding the admission Of the
various nations to the peace confer
ence itself, said the premier.
In his conference in Paris with the
premiers of France and Italy. Presi-
dent Wilson had become fully ac-
quainted with their views and he had
now also acquired . knowledge Of the
British standpoint.
"And," continued the premier, II
feel assured that all these powers are
In accord on the basic principles Of
the peace which will come before the
conference. At any rate, it will be
certain that America and England will
bs found working in complete har-
mony in the conference"
At the close of his remarks, answer
ing question as to when he expected
the British delegation to 60 to Paris.
the premier replied that owing to the
necessity of clearing up the general
election and other pressing business it
could not be before the end Of tho first
week Of the new year.
The newspaper men were received
after a long conference the premier
and Secretary Balfour had with Pres
ident Wilson and which was continued
at the premiers' dinner to the Presi-
dent at his official residence in Down
ing street.
In an informal talk, the British
prime minister warmly welcomed the
American newspaper men to England.
He expressed qualification that he had
been able to meet them and spoke un-
restrainedly of the important role
newspaper men had played in the pro-
motion of the ends that all had at
heart in furthering the intimate friend
ship between the United States and
Great Britain.
The premier said that owing to the
elections it had not been possible as
yet to organize the British delegation
to the peace congress, but he would
proceed Immediately, now that the re-
suit was known. to take up the matter
with his colleagues. At the present
time, he added, it could be stated that
only two members of the delegation
had been selected definitely meaning

are prone to eat too much meat and in
consequence deposit lime-salts in the
arteries, veins and joints. We often
suffer from twinges of rheumatism or
lumbago, sometimes from gout, swollen

slightest need of this, however, as the
new prescription, uAnuric," is bound
to give immediate results as It is many
times more potent than lithia, in ridding
the impoverished blood of it's poisons
by way of the kidneys. It can be OBJ
