SWAMP ROOT

For many years druggists have watched
with much interest the remarkable record
maintained by DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root,
the great kidney, liver and bladder medi-
cine.
1t is a physicians prescription.
Swamp-Root is a strengthening medi-
cine. 1t helps the kidneys, liver and blad-
der do the work nature intended they
should do.
Swamp Root has stood the test of years.
1t is sold by all druggists on its merit
and it should help you. No other kidney
medicine has so many friends.
BE sure to get Swamp-Root and start
treatment at orce.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..

Mai. Gabriel d'AnnunziO, the leader
of the Italian airmen, is a most ex-
traordinary personality. Famous be-
fore the war as a poet and dramatiSt,
as the creator of a new Italian liter
allure, he has affected the language
of his country more profoundly than
anyone since Dante; n notable figure
in society, much discussed for his lux
urious tastes. he stepped into the fore
front of the battle as a soldier when
over fifty years old. Since then he
added exploit to exploit, stealing into
enemy ports in small craft at night
to torpedo battleships, carrying out
the longest and most dangerous air
raids. When the armistice was signed
he commanded a squadron of picked
young airmen.
