SAN RENO, April 19.-The interal- lied supreme council began it's formal session today in the Villa Devauchau on the hills to the northwest of the main town.
 While the Turkish question was on the program for first consideration by the conference today it develops that there already has been discussion over the question of enforcing the eXecu- tion of the treaty of peace with Ger many.
 Premiers Millerand, Nitti and Lloyd George, after their meeting with for eign minister Scialoia of Italy; Philip pc Berthelot, political director of the French foreign office, Earl Curzon, British foreign minister and numerous secretaries yesterday at the VillL De- vachan met again late in the afternoon at Premier Nitti hotel
 Would Shut Off Supplies
 They were agreed without moments discussion that Germany should be told in the most positive manner that she must observe the treaty.
 Premier Lloyd George suggested economic pressure depriving Germany of food, raw materials and intercourse with the allied countries should she continue negligent. Premier Millerand is described as having said that such pressure, without the use of naval military aid, would in effect be no pressure at all. The only warning that would be respected, the only pressure that would be effective. he asserted. would be force-the application of such force as the military and naval advisers might deem sufficient.
 Premier Lloyd George. it is said, re- sisted this conclusion.a
 Premier Nitti inclined toward the British prime minister's view and the matter rests there for the present
 
 Need American Aid
 WASHINGTON, April 19-The allies reply to President Wilson's Turkish note is expected by diplomatic off, cials to point out that without accept ance by the United States of respon- sibiliy for part of the burden of the solution of the Turkish question, the allies have found it impossible to adopt his suggestion that the Turks be driven from Europe.
 The allies hold, it was said, that eviction of the sultan was impossible without assumption by some power. preferably the United States, of the obligation for the protection of Con- stantinople and contiguous Turkish territory. For economic and political reasons, officials said, choice of an other power than the United States was precluded and since the United States has refused the proffered man. date, no other solution than to leave the Turk in Constantinople under a1- lied control was possible.

THIS GRAIN TRULY "GOLDEN'
How Discovery of Prolific Gold Field Was Made in Mysore, State
 of India

One of the worlds most prolific gold fields at the present time is in the kolar district (Mysore state) of India. Discovery of it was made in curious way.
 In prosperous years, when the gods favored the valley with an ample har- vest of rice, grains of gold were found now and then on rice ears. This great ly mystified the natives. who ascribed the gold to supernatural powers.
 What probably happened was that these grains, derived from the gravelly soil lodged on the young rice plants when they were being grown in nur- series (for subsequent transplantation to the fields) and flooded at intervals with water
 The strange occurrence. at first deemed supernatural, led to the discov- cry that the gravels of the valley were rich in gold. brought down from the mountains. Since then the kolar dis trict has contributed largely to the worlds supply of the yellow metal.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never
 Suspect It
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 ifs remarkable record of success.
 An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview on 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- tions are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. It 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 & Co.,, Binghamton. N. r., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.
