An odd fellow was this man Blank He owed
the Government a bill and he wanted to pay it.
He kept going to the Shipping Board and
asking for It, and they would look for an index
in which to look for his name and couldn't find
it, and look for his account in the ledger which
hadn't been posted, and look for the clerk who
might remember but had been fired. So they
would tell Blank to run along and not bother.
But Blank owed the Government this $4,000
and knew the amount and wanted to pay 1t.
Finally he hired Joseph w. Heintzman. the
cherubic Cincinnati attorney, to come down TO
Washington and help him pay this bill. And Joe
got in to Chairman Lasker and, by dint Of per-
sonal persuasveness induced him to accept
Blanks certified check.
So unusual was 1t for anybody to pay a bill
to the Shipping Board that Blank was sent over

Government by Judges

legislatures, the law-making power
of the country, stand silent and
muzzled.
The situation is anomalous. No.
where else in the world is such an
absurd power given to a court;
especially when the court is per
mitted to strike down by bare ma
jority the act of one of its CO.
ordinate branches.
We are fast approaching a judicial
oligarchy in this country; or, rather,
we are actually suffering from
judicial House Of Lords, which re-
mains very quiescent when reac-
tionary legislation is passed, but
very active indeed when the legisla-
ton is progressive.
1t is the effect of this unprece-
denied, anomalous judicial power
upon the laws of the country that
has stayed our progress and changed
us from a leader in progressive,
social and economic and political
experiments to a mere follower of
countries we onco Id.

If You Need a Medicine
\ You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at once
drop out of sight and are soon for
gotten? The reason is plain-the
article did not fulfil 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 rem
edy 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, preparation / have sold for
many years and never hesitate to
recommend, for in almost every case
it shows excellent results, 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 sue
cess of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
due to the fact, so many people claim,
that it fulfils almost every wish in
overcoming kidney, liver and bladder
ailments, corrects urinary troubles
and neutralizes the uric acid which
causes rheumatism.
You may receive sample bottle
of Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Adj
dress DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamp-
ton, N. Y, and enclose ten cents;
also mention this paper. Large and
