important to all Women
Readers Of this Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy CON
dltion, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head,
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irrita-
bic and may be respondent; it makes any
one so.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
kilmer's Swamp-Root by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.
Many send for a sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, will do for
them. BY enclosing ten cents to DR..
kilmer Il Co., Binghamton, N. Y, you
may receive sample size bottle by Parcel
Post. You can purchase medium and
large size bottles at all drug stores.

nuisance it becomes. The poet says,
In happy homes we see the light
of firesides cleaning warm and
bright and the description is alluring;
but have YOU ever been responsible for
one Of those lreplaces cleaning warm
and bright? If so, YOU know it costs
more than it's worth.
MY wife was an admirable woman
in every respect, and | never weary
of eXtoling her splendid qualities Of
heart and mind, but she was crank
on neatnoss. Our house always was
like new pin. She wouldn't stand for
anything that looked like disorder, and
this characteristic of hers caused me
much misery.
"We had an old-fashioned heating
stove which burned big chunks of
wood, and it might have been possible
to be comfortable by it in wintry
weather, had my wife been of a more
liberal mind. When it became appar-
eut to the most casual observer that
bad weather was coming, | wanted to
bring in enough wood to last until the
elements took in their sign. My plan
was to have a large box behind the
stove, and fill it with wood. But my
beloved Arabella said she'd be ever
astingly keelhauled and kertlummiXed
before she'd have an old woodboX in
the sitting room. She exhausted her
energy and intellect, she said, making
our sitting room credit to the fam
lily, and she wasn't going to have any
old boxes Kicking around.
"Neither would she permit me to pile
a reserve supply of wood in the Kitchen.
She argued that the kitchen should be
MS orderly and neat as the parlor and
there was no more striking evidence
Of bad housekeeping than piles Of
wood here and there.
"You may ask why / didn't put my
foot down and assert myself as heau
of the family, but when man has
been married few years he gets tired
of putting his foot down, since il
never accomplshes anything. He is
willing to make any sacrifice for the
sake of balmy peace,
1.-THE result Of my wife's attitude on
this question was that | had to be al
ways drilling out to the woodshed for
fuel and there's nothing more disgust
ing than leaving a warm sitting room
on such an errand. Before leaving the
house | had to put on my OvershoeS,
so | wouldn't bring in any snow when
/ returned. Having secured my arm
load of wood, | had to lay II down on
the back porch while took off my
overshocs, and then gather it up again
and carry it into the house
"This done my estimabIe wife would
follow my track to the back door, with
her hands in the air in gesture Of
despair, saying / had left a trail Of
bark and SliverS and other refuse, and
if I had the first instincts of a gentle
man I'd clean up the mess | had made.
Having the second as well as the first
instincts of a gentleman, ! got the
broom and dustpan and removed the
debris. II was the same way when
carried out the ashes. | never could
carry out ashes without dropping sam
pies on the floor, and then I'd have to
get down on my marrOwbones and
clean up, and by the time / seated my
self by the stove to rest, the fire would
be- low again, and I'd have to scoot
into the bowling tempest once n re.
It was this sort Of thing that drove
me, a homeless wanderer, from the
busy haunts,'

!mportations OF Meat.

Although the United States is the
greatest mcat-producing country in
the world, It has received considerable
quantities of meats from other coun-
tries according to the records of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture Last year the United States inn
ported 100000 pounds Of meat OF
all kinds, about two-thirdS Of which
was New Zealand lamb. This lamb IS
now being exported to England While
meat imports of last year show an
increase over the preceding year, they
do not establish a record, as imports
for 1917 were 522oO0OOO pounds.

Among the more important general
features of the measure are the follow
ing:
American valuation of imports is
provided for the century old system
of foreign valuation being abandoned.
Broad powers are given the Presi-
dent to make reciprocal tariff relations
with other countries.
Duties much higher than In the for
mer Payne-Aldrich tariff law are i'm
posed upon chemicals and products Of
other industries established during the
war which are considered essential
from a standpoint of national defense,
Far-reaching powers are given to
the tariff commission in restricting
imports of dyes for three-year pc
riod.
Duties on automobiles are reduced
in compliance with the request Of the
manufacturers, who advanced the ar
gument that such action would cause
other nations to remove high duties
on American cars.
Protection on agricultural products
about equal to that Of the Payne-Al-
drich law IS given, rates in several
instances being less than in tl. emer-
gency tariff law now in effect.
Duties on wool are on an entirely
different basis from former laws, and
1t is matter Of controversy whether
the basic rate is higher or lower than
in the Payne-Aldrich law.
Among the commodities on the free
list are: Agricultural implements
animals imported for breeding pur-
poses anthony ore, antitoXins and
yacclnes, bread, chromite, coal, cobalt
cocoa, coffee, copper ore, cotton, cork

Despite the fact that the new tariff
will produce a huge revenue, the need
of reducing government expenditures
is as pressing as ever, and President
Harding and Director of the Budget
Dawes seem determined to bring about
that result They met last week with
the cabinet and the heads Of all the
bureaus-the first meeting of the kind
ever held-and had a heart to heart
talk on means to meet the emergency,
Mr. Harding quickly gave the floor
TO Mr.. Dawes and that vigorous Chi
CagOan told the gathering in plain
language what he planned to do and
what the others must do to help him
Then he added:
The permanent success of the bud
get system depends upon certain basic
principles, which at its inception must
be so firmly established both as to
concept and rules of action, that they
never hereafter will be questioned.
THE budget bureau must be i'm
partial, impersonal, and nonpolitical"
In concluding he ordered the bureau
chiefs to their feet and, holding up his
hand, recited the following pledge, adj
dressed to the President:
These men, of whom l am one,
realize the perpeXity Of your position,
realize that the business Of the coun-
try is PROSTATE, that its working men
are out of employment, that we are
faced with ineXorable necessity of re-
ducing expenditures, and we propose,
just as we did four years ago to win
the war, to try to do it, And that's all
we can do"
