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 SwampRoot is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
it's 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
so many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is SO
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. 1t is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer g. Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for a
sample bottle. When writing be sure and
mention this paper.-Adv.

Frank Leroy Chance, once the peer

into the limelight again.

But Chance says that he has quit

Let us take the total per cent of
increase for the past five years. in
1914 the valuation as given was $24,-
55,62194 This fiscal year or 1919-20,
the valuation is $69,O71 $4,000. The
total increase for the period is $44,-
816,020O6, or 184.7 per cent. Assum-
ing that the valuation of the county
will only increase about 25 per cent
as much as it's per cent of increase
for the past five-year period, in the
coming five years, we would have a
valuation of over 100000 This
would make the cost of the proposed
bond 12.17 cents on the $100 assessed
valuation on the sixth year instead of
the 1852 cents as based on the pres
ent valuation, and reducing each of
the remaining Is years as the bond is
reduced, and a further reduction as
the county's valuation increases.
Many doubt the advisability of a
road bond, and many who are in favor
of them do not realize the great re-
turns from so small an investment.
Take your pencil and divide the
amount you are assessed by 100, null
tiply the result by the cost per $500
as given above, and see the amount
you will pay toward the bond and to-
ward good roads. Now add up the
sums you have paid out the past year
due to poor roads, which is absolute
ly wasted On which side does the
balance lie?
In California the average automo-
bile tire runs 10000 miles; in Arizona
5000 The average car runs 10000
miles year. In California car uses
less than one set of tires; in Arizona
two sets a year. What does a set of
tires cost for your car?
You can cut out a very large per-
centage of this useless waste by vot
ing for the Road Bonds, Sept. 23rd.

Local Service Men Honor
Army Nurse Who Served
With Lakeside Unit; First
Post in State to Elect
Woman Officer.

Many weeks before the American
eXpeditionary forces or their COM
mander-in-chief had seen the shore
lines of France, or even knew what
the danger zone was like, there was
an American hospital unit operating
there. Coming during the closing
days of the battle at Arras and the
English offensive at Vimy ridge, the
Lakeside unit from Cleveland, Ohio,
under the direction of the great Mayo
brothers, had taken their stand at
Rouen, and while our war department
and military affairs committee were
arguing about machine guns and En-
field rifles, and drawing plans for pro-
posed cantonments, while George
Creel's bureau of misinformation was
shouting from the house tops about
the great air fleet from America that
never came, and while some Of us
were waiting for our numbers to be
drawn, the Lakeside unit was nobly
carrying on. Every few weeks the
doctors and nurses had to take their
turn-up in the lines, often remaining
there for thirty days or longer before
being brought back to the base again.
In those dayssthe doctors had to go
over the top with the infantry and
the nurses operated the dressing sta
tions in the trenches. AS time passed.
fewer and fewer of the old faces in
that original unit were left, and when
at last the armistice came about only
a fragment of old Lakeside was there
to hear the news.
A few months ago they came home.
There was no parade, no reception
committee no publicity; some taxi
driver at Hoboken offered to drive
them to the McAlpin for 81 apiece,
and we think they had to pay it or
else walk, and in few days they
were given their discharge and
thanked for all the good work they
had done, and some possible colonel,
with a bunch of Y M. C. A. decora-
tons on his chest and two or three
silver chevrons on his left sleeve, sug-
gested that they ought to get in again
if we ever had another war, and in
such an event, he hoped they would
dc better still. 1t is safe to assume
