It was conceded by most Of Us who
are more or less interested in the
problem that in order for the pen

And, needless to say. neither Keren-

day such an expensive establishment.

supposed to have supported the Bakh-

gold ornaments, as against $51. .OOO.OOO
in 1918 and $3S,OOO,OOO in 1915, de-
clares Charles w. Henderson, stat
istician for the United States geo

This amounts to $21.OOO,O 900 more
than the gold mines Of the country
produced last year, he says. In the
first ten months of last year there was
sold In Paris 100000 pieces of gold
and platinum jewelry and 23.3OO,OOO
silver pieces, aS against 100000
gold and platinum pieces and l7,OOO,-
100 silver pieces in 1913. The price Of
gold In France has increased from g..
400 francs per kilogram to $500

II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

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 plain-the article did not fulfill
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, a
preparation l 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 rei..edy has so large a
SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation. the success of Dr.
kilmer's Swamp Root is due to the fact,
so many people claim, that it fulflls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle Of
Swamp Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.; kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles

Mystery Surrounds Russian "Embassy
MYSTERY surrounds the s1,OOO,O 900

IA YSTERY surrounds the $1,000, 900
AvA pile, known as the Russian en-
bassy, on fashionable Sixth street
Gossip has it that behind those I'M
posing walls poverty exists. that funds
are running lower and lower.
Tales are being told like that of
dentist bill which was paid with one
of the fleet of automobiles formerly
the personal property of the late czar
of Russia. Antique furniture is being
disposed OF to pay expenses, 1t is said
What government do the present oc-
cupants of the embassy represent?
Whence comes the money for its
maintenance?
Is 1t true that the state department
Is about to order them to get out of
the embassy within certain time?
To none Of these questions has a
conclusive answer been given.
1t is known that an investigation Is
under way to determine who-what
government or person or persons-is
the owner Of the embassy building.
1t used to belong to the czar-he
personally held title to such Russian
government buildings. But the czar
has long been dead, 1t is believed. Does
the building revert to the cars per-
sonal heirs, or to the Russian govern
ment? And II the latter, what Rus
Sian government? These questions
puzzle state department officials.

A new fuel fluid of greater heat
value per unit than either coal or fuel
oil was described by Jerome Alexan-
der. a New York chemist. The paper
declared the new fuel utilizes coal
waste and cheap tars. these ingredi-
ents being dispersed in fuel oil by col
loidal action, and that the addition of

combines the valuable qualities for
heating of both oil and coal. Peat,
Ignite. cellulose waste. sawdust and
similar inferior fuels may be utilized
in the new process.
1t said that the new fuel could be
piped. stored, and burned virtually as
fuel oil is. and that as a fuel for
steamships 1t is virtually double the
value Of either coal or present forms
Of fuel oil.
