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 PLAINTIFF article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a 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,
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 l know of
has so large sale"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
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.

Those of US who are past middle age

consequence deposit lime-salts in the

slightest need of this, however, as the
new prescription, uAnurio," is bound

Nemesis.

Nemesis was a goddess of justice
and divine retribution. The word
comes from Greek verb meaning to
deal out, distribute, dispense. In Greek
mythology, Nemesis was goddess per-
sonifying allotment, or the divine dis
tribution to every man of his precise
share of fortune, good and bad. It was
her special function to see that the
proper proportion Of individual pros
perlty was preserved. and that any one
who became too prosperous or was too
much upllfted by his prosperity should
be reduced or punished.

her arrest on the charge of assault
with a deadly weapon.

The Cossack Advance

In the last month Admiral Kolchak's
armies on the front east of the Volga
have suffered reverses and been with
drawn toward the Urals. But this re-
tlrement has been offset by an advance
of the Cossack forces in the region of
the Don and along the northern shore
of the Sea of Azov.

The Peace Falsehood

~ The sinister suggestion comes from
'>Weimar that one element supports sign
ing on the ground that the treaty repre-
sents duress, and thus is not binding
that it will give Germany a chance to
prepare herself to shake off her alleged
shackles. Surely an interesting pro-
gramme!
Having not prospered during the cur
-rency of the falsehood that the war was
"'forced" on her, Germany may scarcely
hope to prosper during the currency of
the companion falsehood that the peace
is an unjust one. Justice is unattainable.
Justice, indeed The demands of JUS
tice have been whitfield almost to disap-
pearance. Germany has been favored
practically every doubt has been con-
> strued to her benefit.
And for this Germany is indebted not
to her power for evil, as she thinks; not
to any merit in her counter arguments,
but to something in the spirit of civili-
zation which she does not herself possess
and cannot understand in others.

The Belgian Call

re The President during his visit to Bel
gium said:
- 81 believe that Belgium and her part
80 in the war are in one sense the key of
the whole struggle, because the viola
'-tion of Belgium was the call to duty
which aroused the nations
The statement is historically accurate
and the truth is its own justification.
The Germans along the Belgian border
fired shots heard around the world The
' attack on peaceful Belgium did not differ
fundamentally from the attacks OH
France and Russia; but the wantonness
was SO concrete, the crime so henous,
that great bell was rung; the world,
despite a propaganda which has poi
soned many minds, began to understand.
1t took long to organize the international
posse. Specific offence, as in our case,
needed to be added to spur to action, but
the Belgian story sank deeper and
deeper. The decisive battle did not oc-
cur in Flanders, but in very real sense
Germany lost the war there. Even Lenine
and Trotzky, despite their lack of sense
of moralities, squirmed when it was
pointed out that they proposed to aban-
don Belgium. The little country of
,dhe Meuse and the Scheldt was true to
herself and to the world, and what her
despoiler was compelled to pay will be
mighty beacon warning against ag-
gressive war;
That our President bore witness as
he did is not only of world value, but of
national value. The Belgians are little
acquainted with the minutia of Ameri-
can discussion preceding our entry.
They are not mindful of the Indifferent
ISM that once existed. They see the
America which first fed through Rookie
teller philanthropy, and then acted ma
'tlonaily before it was too late. And
our spokesman they hear declaring that
the voice OF Belgian heroism carried
across the sea. In view of the fact that
this country at last arrived, and now
these words of generous recognition.
there Is no disposition to examine nicely
whether our footsteps were always
straight to the goal. If they wandered,
ample apology has come, and to Ameri-
can historians is left the question of
who followed and who led here-who
educated and who was educated.
Americans are proud and sentimental.
1t is salving to their pride and agree
able to their sentiments to have It made
clear that whatever their mistakes thew
were not prompted by ignobility. They
are sensitive, perhaps oversensitive, to
foreign opinion, and they wish to be
presented properly abroad. They have
passion for wanting their President to
justify America to the world. Thus
they rejoice in his testimony that Bel
GUM sounded the call Of duty to us.

this sixteen-to-one" was about, any
how. But salt is always salt, and any
amount of "Big Bills" stuff was savory
and true, with zest and bite
He was the last of our village heroes,
and it is safe bet that New York will
not know his type again. We were still
village only this little while ago, one
one. 1t is queer change that has taken
place since. The growth of the city,
large as it is, hardly accounts for it
save on the theory that at a certain
point in size the whole spirit Of place
is transformed. We have no local
heroes comparable to the easily picked
out leaders Of earlier eras--in politics,
in society, on the stage. Great un-
knowns are commoner in business than
the great known. The theatre has be-
come vast industry, with idols of
every shade and description, suited to
every taste. Society is a series Of
groups. In politics-newspaper still
interview Chauncey Depew, and there
are no successors.
Perhaps personality with enough
bite might once again put himself over.
Mayor Gaynor belonged in that tradi-
ton. But the chances are slim. Not
so much great size as increasing COM
plexity makes local heroism very diff
cult of achievement. New York has no
commanding centre any longer. New
York is no longer Manhattan-or Man
haitian and Brooklyn-but city of
cities, situate in three states, and COM
prising variety of tongues, and habits.
and races, and modes of life beyond
cataloguing. Give New York rest for
decade, with no inf1uxes from the
West-or the East-and more homo
geneous town might be easier to con-
quer. But it would not be New York.

llams says, the Cossacks of the Upper
Don, discouraged by the offer Of the
peace conference to negotiate at Prinki-
po with the Moscow government, made
terms with Lenine. But they have now
revolted again against soviet rule, which
is the antithesis of that local self-gov-
ernment which the Cossacks enjoyed
even under the cars
The seat of the republic is at
Ekaterinodar, in Kuban Province, to
the east of the Sea of Azov. But Deni-
klns armies are fighting far to the
north and northwest, in the province of
the Don Cossacks and in the neighbor-
ing province to the west, Ekaterinosia.
One army is now advancing northeast
along the railroad from Rostoff-on-the-
Don to Tzaritsin, on the Volga. Posses
sion of Tzaritsin by the Cossacks would
cut off Astrakhan, on the Caspian, at
the mouth of the Volga, now held by the
Bolshevists. 1t would also bring Deni-
kin's forces in touch with the extreme
left wing of Kolchak's armies, composed
OF Oral Cossacks. To the west Deni-
MIL mas maze progress along the north
coast of the Sea of Azov as far as Mari
opol. North of that place they have
captured the Donetz coal basin, includ
ing Bakhmut, in the province of Ekate-
rinosia. This is one of the chief sources
OF Russias coal supply, and it's loss is
serious blow to Lenine, who has depend
ed largely on it for the coal with which
to run the Russian railroads. Pushing
north on the railroad from Rostoff to
Voronesh, the Cossacks have entered the
upper Don district, where the new re-
volt against Bolshevism is under way.
Tanks are the greatest factor every
where in the Cossack advance. Great
Britain can supply them in large num- .
bers, and this reinforcement is much
more valuable to Denikin than contin-
gents of Allied troops.
