so bad l could hardly retain my food.
Nothing agreed with me; in fact l

My whC~e system seemed TO be out OF

The primary purpose Of the organi-

lions between the nations associated
In the wal on the allied side. AS one
means of accomplishing this it is pro-
posed that the membership card of each
society shall be recognized by the So

the association.
The delegates who attended the
Paris conference have been instructed
to report back to their respective or
CARNATIONS the details of the amalga-

point, from which veterans of the
World war may form their own League
of Nations.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never

Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists

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

It's remarkable record Of success.
An examining physician for one of Che
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
An interview on the subject, made the as
tonisbing statement that one reason why
30 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
thai they have the disease. 1t is on sale

First of all, get it firmly fixed in
your mind that all the liniments
IN the world have no effect what
ever on rheumatism.
A very common form of Rheu-
matism is caused by millions Of
tiny disease germs which infest the
blood. The one and only sensible
treatment. therefore. is one which
cleanses tie blood of these germs,
and routs them entirely cut of the
