physicians in attendance had given up
hope for the recovery of their dis

in measure prepared the world for
the sad event
Cardinal Gasparri, papal secretary
Of state, made public the fact of the
death Of the pope.
His holiness had been suffering for
some days, having contracted double
pneumonia, and treatment began too
late.
During the early hours of the morn
ing, toward o'clock, there was sud-
den change for the worse and the
bronchial affection from which his holi-
ness had been suffering for several
days, spread to his lungs.
The pontiff asked for and received
the last sacrament, insisting upon this,
'if only to give good example," he
said, despite attempts by his attend
ants to dissuade him.
The pope's physicians were In con-
sultation at the Vatican at an early
hour, and the morning bulletin issued
afterward indicated an extremely seri-

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
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
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
Its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject. made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
80 many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is 30
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large. However, il you wish
first to test this great preparation send
ten cents to Dr.. Kilmer 4 Co., Bingham
ton, N. Y, for sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

HAD FILLED HIGH POSITIONS
Pope Benedict Prominent in Church
counseIs Before His Elevation
to the Papal Throne.

Pope Benedict XIV rose to the SUI
preme head of the Catholic church
Sept. 8, 1914, less than six months
after he was elevated to the cardinal
ship. He was born of noble parents
at Pogli, near Genoa, Italy, Nov. 81,
1854. His father was Marquis Della
Chiesa.
Educated at Capronican college and
the Academy of Ecclesiastics, he was
ordained to the priesthood in 1878.
He was taken to Madrid, Spain, by
was secretary Of the nunciature in
Spain. In 1901 he was appointed con-
sultor of the holy Office and in 1907
Pope Plus gave him the appointment
Of archbishop of the see Of Bologna.
He was made cardinal In May, 1914.
Saddened BY Horrors Of War.
Pope Benedict was much affected by
the horrors and sorrow of the World
war and many times tried to bring
about peace negotiations. Germany's
violation of Belglum's neutrality filled
him with great sorrow and after the
sinking of the Lusitania, he telegraph
ed the German emperor telling his
adherence of the deed.
Pope Benedicts first appeal for
peace was issued one week after his
coronation. The appeal failed to bring
results, as did also his later plan for
Christmas truce. In January and in
July, 1915, he again tried to bring
about peace negotiations. In March,
1916, he repeated his attempts and in
May of the same year suggested that
America should act as conciliator be-
tween the warning nations. His note
to President Wilson to this effect
reached Washington when Germany
and the United States were involved
In diplomatic crisis. The Vatican ap-
proved of President Wilson'S peace
note in 1917, but three months later
the United States entered the war.
Made Appeal for Peace.
The Pope's most memorable appeal
for peace was issued in his own hand
writing on August 8, 1917, and asked
belligerent rulers to end the struggle
During the peace conference his pleas
were issued in behalf of weaker ma
tions.
Just before the conference President
Wilson had private conference with
Pope Benedict at the Vatican In which
many questions of n social and inter-
national nature were discussed.
The settlement of the 7OO-year-old
Irish problem was received with grent
pleasure by the pope, who issued
message congratulating the principals
in the negotiations.

Packers were looking for good she
stock. but there were only a few
punches of females at their disposal
and none of the consignment possessed
the flesh that brings the top kind of
prices on the local market The best
cows offered sold for $3.50 and other
sales ranged down to 81.
A big part of the offering of feeders
and stockers was consigned to the
auction ring and very little stock was
offered on the open market. Some
good steers sold for $3.50 flat.

A good inquiry prevailed for all
classes of stock and a considerably
heavier run undoubtedly could have
been used to great advantage. A ready
outlet was afforded the stock and
trade was active while the supplies
lasted with values showing mate rial

to be about a quarter.

fat lambs averaging 81 pounds, to

that stock could have been good
enough to have brought $l2, and they
were quoting fair to medium lambs at
$3.50 to S11.75. Packers also took nine
loads of warmed-up lambs for s10.50.
Demand for good. fat ewes is also
very strong at present and quotations
ranged from S5.75 to s6. Feeding lambs
were meeting with a good inquiry, but

1t was about O'Clock in the morning
that the change for the worse In the
pope's condition occurred. 1t was espe-
clally due to catarrh, which has spread
to both lungs, to inability to eXpec-
torate and to pulmonary Inflammation,
1t was stated Professor Cherubini,
who had been waiting ut the Vatican,
was Immediately summoned. He found
the pope mentally depressed and pant
ing for breath.

sedatives and expectorants, but the
beneficial effects expected did not man
ifest themselves. In view of the grav-

an urgent call to Professor Bignami,
a Vatican automobile being dispatched
to bring him to the Vatican, his ar
rival there following shortly.
Consultation 10 Held.
Professor Bignami the evening be-
fore had remarked upon the absence
of a cough, checking expectoration, and
consequently was not surprised by the
development, 1t appeared. After n
brief inspection of the patient he left

Soon thereafter, however, the pope's
condition became aggravated and the
administration Of oxygen was begun.
Meanwhile. prayers were being said
in all the churches and Catholic insti-'
ness and great crowds began to as
semble In st. Peters.
The sudden change for the worse
In the pontiff's condition seemed to
have come as a great surprise, even
to those who had been observing him
most closely. Last evening he received
some Strengthening injections and the
doctors then stated they were salts
fed with his condition, expressing hope
that danger of an extension of the in
flammation to the lungs had passed
and saying the crisis appeared to- be
overcome.
One of the most disturbing condi-
tions that developed early In the day
seemed to be passing away after 10
O'Clock in the morning, as the pontiff
was then able to expectorate slightly.
This aroused more hope among the
watchers, but toward II o'clock he be-
came worse again and oxygen then
was administered.
Cardinals Wait Word.
Mgr. Zampini, sacristan of the apos-
tolic palace, Mgr. Carlo Respighi, the
pontitical prefect of ceremonies, and
Mgr. Migone, the private chamberlain,
were at the popes bedside.
There was an air of deep anxiety
and apprehension about the Vatican,
where many of the cardinals were
waiting In an antechamber, all the
cardinals in Italy having assembled In
Rome upon receiving word of the
pope's serious illness. The doctors,
after consultation, did not conceal
the gravity of the pontiff's condition.
