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. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record Of success.
An examining physician for one Of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
50 MANY applicants for insurance are re-
jected 10 because kidney trouble is 20
common to the American people, and the
large majority Of those whose applica.
tons are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. II is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles Of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, il YOU wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to Dr.,

CLOSE WITH LOSSES

New York, Feb. 2S.-Stocks were re-
dictionary today and closed with losses
ranging Aom one to two points In the
most active issues. The total volume
of business done during the session
was less than on Thursday, but the de-
cline was attributed to the technical
position of the market which Is said
to have been considerably weakened by

receded when the buying power be-,
came Commission houses
were advising clients to take profits
and wait about a week when 1t is ex-
pected that the upward movement
which is now becoming known as the
spring rise is expected to be resumed.
The reaction was not surprising when
IT is considered that at the close of
business Thursday night the average
price of industrials was at a higher
level than it has been at anything this
year and higher than it has been since
November 20, 1918. The average price
of the railroad shares was also higher
than 1t has been at any time this year
with the single exception of January
3 which marked the elimination Of the
repurchasing movement that followed
general liquidation for taxation pur-
poses. o said that 1t is charac-
~teristic of a market which had had new
prices in the averages to reverse itself
temporarily Immediately after having
done SO and recede several points.
Such a temporary reversal is always
due to the fact that 1t takes big VOL
ume Of trading to get stocks into the
new high territory and in his process
certain favorite stocks become over
bought and proft-taking results
Call money continued steady and no
material change in the money situation
was reported.
American Car and Foundry was one
of the industria1s to touch a new high
price for his year. the common stock
advancing to "a as on urgent buying.
A general feeling has prevailed in
the street the last few days that the
movement In the tobacco shares was
over so that there was much surprise
when United Cigar Stores became ac-
tive at a sharp appreciation in price
which carried it to the new high level
OF 129& which was four and one-half
points above the previous closing.
Some brokers were advising the ac-
emulation of Erie shares today.

Chicago. Feb. 2s.-Corn future s
showed great activity on the board of
trade and the character of buying was
strong. Advances of 1hc for March,
2 to ~ for May and 1A 017 -Sc for
July were shown. Nervousness was
evident as some large spectators
bought May and July in large amounts.
1t vas under this buying advances
were established. Private estimates of
corn held on farms will be made to-
morrow and It Is expected the reserves
Will be found smaller than ever be-
fore with the possible exception OF one
year.
Fixing Of hog prices for March was
an unsettling factor IN the corn rade.
Reports as to action of the government
conficted. Just before the close a
message was received saying a state
ment was given out officially by the
food administration that the existing
minimum price will continue until a
decision Is made by President Wilson
regarding the existing embargo on
pork and products affecting neutral
countries.
Seahoard interests were making in
