REVOLT OVERTHROWS

dent Ebert. first president OF the Ger

OF an extensive reactionary plot. on
Saturday. The reVolutionists, appar-
entity working on carefully laid plans.

fatheriand party. chancellor Of Ger
many and premier OF Prussia.
Major General Baron Won Luettwitr,
former military governor Of Belgium.
was named minister OF defense. replae-
ing Noske.
Friedrich Ebert. president Of the old
government, who with most OF his min
listers hastily withdrew from Berlin
when the revolving troops marched in
and Kapp aud Won Luettwitz took con-
troll, is reported to be at Stuttgart.
and from this point Of security is call
ing upon the socialists and working
classes generally to stand by the old
government and use the strike weapon
90 that the counter-revolution may b
promptly suppressed.
In response to this appeal general
strike has been proclaimed in many
places, but in other parts Of Germany
the call for a strike has not been re-
ceived with favor.
While adherence to the new govern
ment has been promised by some OF
the outside states. Saxony has declared
against II, and Bavaria. Wurtemburg
and Baden have joined in denouncing
the movement.
With the general strike proclaimed
throughout Germany bT the independ-
ent socialists, affiliated with the trade
unions and other organizations, Berlin
already is beginning to feel the pinch
of suffering again. The water supply
has been largely cut off and food 10
scarce. Hotels are shutting down. and
II the strike continues means Of trans
portation will be at an end.

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 PLAINTIFF article did not fulfill
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to medicine.
A medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as hike
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 I 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 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 fulills 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 a sample bottle OF
Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & CO., Binghamton, N. Z :,
and enclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores.-Adv.
