Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record Of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose appAca-
lions 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..

Heroes Who Must Be Recorded

Commentator is deserved by the Navy
league for the efforts it is making to get in-
formation of definite kind as to the identity,
the achievements, and the fates of the young
Americans who, seeing more promptly than did
their own country what should be done to de-
feat the ambitions of Germany and to defend
her chosen victims, enlisted before the april
of 1917 in the military service of one OF an
other Of the allies.
These men, fortunately for American repute,
numbered some hundreds of thousands, and
they scattered pretty we'll all over the surface
of the world In character, as in courage, they
should rank high in the roster Of national
heroes for they did much-did all that was
done till we entered the war--to prove by their
offer of life itself the existence here Of full ap-
probation of what was going on in Europe.
Many of them died in the great and noble
adventure upon which they entered, and it
would indeed be deplorable if they should lack
at home the reward of fame and remembrance
that was 50 we'll earned Most of the survivors,
of course, finally were transferred to the Amer
lean forces, but they have right to have it
recorded and made permanently known that,
with no other call than that of their own
consciences, they risked the supreme sacrifice
for the good cause-and did it betimes.-New
