Important to all Women
Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands Of women
have kidney or 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 healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache ana loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita-
bic and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp. Root, the great kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, will do for
them. By enclosing ten cents to DIR.
Kilmer g. Co., Binghamton, N. Y, you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel
Post. You can purchase medium and

sport. Goodness knows, its patience
has been tried time after time-has
been stretched to the breaking point
But with peace restored the long suf
fering public is willing to forgive il
not forget and open an entirely new
book
Future of Turf at Stake
The future of the turf is up to the
conduct of the big men in control
And, unfortunately. these august per-
sonages have not always treated the
public according to its just deserts.
After all it is the public which foots
the bills. 1t is the public which
should come first, always. The pub
lie to racing is vastly more important
than the multi-millionaire owners: the
little owners; the great trainers; the
obscure trainers; the Jockeys; the
bookmakers or the touts.
1t is the personal opinion of tho
writer that what the metropolitan turf
to-day stands most greatly in need of
ls fearless initiative in the stewards
stand-a fearlessness that knows no
discrimination between the operations
of the millionaire and the poor man,
run down at the heels, trying to get
oy as best ne can A fitting solution
seems possible in a paid stewardship.
Certain Of our venerable officials seem
10 nave grown either too old to see or
too guileless to suspect.
Inc proof of the pudding is in the
eating. The paid stewardship idea is
no wild theory. Its advantages were
proven conclusively at the fall meeting
of Empire City last season. Chris
fitzgerald had charge of the Yonkers
course. He conducted the meeting
fearlessly, fairly and without mincine
matters. He showed the gate to some
few OF our prominent jockeys who ap-
peared 10 care little for the sentiment
of the public.
His iron rule played no favoritism.
And the result was the cleanest
squarest race meet of the year. The
Improvement was reflected in the most
brilliant competition seen hereabout in

many years. Needless to say, Fitz-
gerald will be in charge of both Empire
City meetings this year.
1t is not alone the opinion of the
writer-any number of prominent
horsemen have voiced the same senti-
ment to him-that that great and
august body the Jockey Club, is in
clined to be, well--just bit too much
upstage with the public that foots the
bills for the sport of kings. The Jockey
Club is composed of men beyond re-
proach and above suspicion. And vet,
it seems, it should realize that the
best way to gain the full confidence of
the public might be to take the public
into it's confidence.
Public Should Know
The public surely is entitled to know
the why's and wherefores of the most
sacred sanctum. This is a democratic
country. Autocracy is bound to come
a cropper--even in horse racing.
1t is not the purpose here to rattle
skeletons in family closets. Somebody
else might dig as deeply as the Thane
OF Cawdor. To make the point, we
need mention only the juvenile per
formances of Purchase last season.
The colt which ran such a sensational
race in the Futurity after he was
eliminated at the start, ran unplaced
and showing nothing in inferior com
pany in five or six of his first starts.
And smart racetrack people knew all the
time what a great colt Purchase was
