Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
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
80 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is 90
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,

great preparation send ten cents to DR..

PRESIDENCY GOAL
OF DRIES IN 1920

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 3O.-Fius1-
ed with victory in obtaining the rati-
fication of the Federal prohibition
tion amendment and with a nation
wide organization of proved effect
iveness, the Antti-saloOn League OF
America is now reaching out for the
Presidency OF the United States.
Control of the next RepubIican ma
tional convention and the nomination
OF Representative Simeon D. Fcss Of
Yellow Springs, Ohio, was said by
those who have knowledge of the
schemes OF the inner council TO be
the method by which the leaders OF
the Antisaloon League hope to gain
this goal
According to information obtained
in the little village Of Westerville,
near here, where the league has its
national headquarters, the attempt
to capture the Presidency will be the
leagues first important move in its
to bring a 'dry" world BY
1880.
The scheme was said to be TO keep
Mr.. Fess in the background as a
Presidential possibility at this time
and to permit Senator Harding an
apparently free field to capture the
Ohio delegation to the Republican na-I
tional convention.
At the proper moment, according 10
the leagues program athe Anti-saloon
League would assert its power in
Ohio and many other States and the
boom for Mr.. Fess would gain full
headway probably just before the
national convention meets.

A COLD FACT

Tobacco seems to be estab-
lished as a necessity in the SOL
dier's life. 90 per cent of the
members OF the American expe-
dictionary forces using il in some
form. 1t is a part Of the regular
daily ration, but the quantity
allowed is not sufficient for the
average tobacco user.
However, every soldier may
buy at the canteens the most
popular brands Of cigars, cigar
cites and smoking tobacco in
unlimited quantities and at
prices considerably lower than
they are sold in the United
States.
Smoking has increased in our
army overseas since the sign
ing of the armistice. The aver
age monthly purchases by the
subsistence division now amount
to 42j,OOO,OOO cigarettes and co.
OOO, 900 cigars for overseas ship
ment. About 1000, 100000 cigar
cites were sent to France prior
to the signing OF the armistice.
The present rate of shipment Is

Precinct Detective Charles c. Wise.
Of the Fifth precinct, who is investi-
eating the case, said today that he
did not believe robbery was the mo-
tive for the assault, for Chapman's
pocketbook, containing sum OF
money, and his watch had not been
taken. but an automobile tire and rim
locked to the back of the machine
had disappeared.
Chapman told Detective Wise that
he had taken a young lady to her
home on Minnesota avenue and Nay
lor road southeast from a downtown
theater in his automobile Tuesday
night and started to his home shortly
before midnight. He remembered
reaching the approaches of the Penn
sylvania avenue bridge, but then his
mind suddenly became blank, and he
remembered nothing further until he
regained consciousness in the alley
near Twelfth and B streets northeast
yesterday morning.
Two Telephone Calls.
J. l. Harrison, Chapman's step
father. told the police that an uniden-
tified man had called him on the tele-
phone shortly after o'clock yester-
day morning and asked IL young
Chapman was there. A short time
later the same party called a second
time.
The police believe that the assault
on Chapman was committed by an
enemy who bore him a grudge. The
tire and rim which was fastened on
the automobile had. been removed
after the paddock securing the tire
had been unlocked. After removing
the tire the paddock was relocked.
It is believed that Chapman after
being knocked unconscious, was
thrown in the bottom OF his automo-
bile and driven by his assaiiants to
the alley where he regained conscious
ness yesterday.
