OLD PRESCRIPTION
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 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 / 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 I know of
has so large a SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DIR.
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.

PREMIER LLOYD GEORGE TELLS
PRESS OF AGREEMENT
WITH WILSON.
ALL POWERS IN ACCORD
PREMIER TO ORGANIZE BRITISH
DELEGATION TO THE PEACE
! CONGRESS.
western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
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 gen.
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-
uuainted with their views and he had
how also acquired knowledge Of the
British standpoint.
and" continued the premier, Il
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
be found working in complete har-
mony in the conference.
At the close of his remarks, answer
ing a question as to when he expected
the British delegation to go 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 the first
week Of the new year.
The newspaper men were received
after 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 imm ediately, 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
himself and Foreign Secretary Bal
four.

ef- course, was untrue. These un-
