II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
1t is that so many products that are ex-
tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain-the article did not fulfill
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 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 | 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

According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success Of DIR.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,

most every wish in overcoming kidney.

STACKER CASES
ARE To BE
PUSHED
Judge Westenhaver's Decision
Not to Stop Prosecutions,
Say Officials Here.
BY international News Service.


Prosecution of war slackers is
not to be stopped as a result Of
decision by Federal Judge Weston
haver. at Cleveland, who decided
the statute of limitations would
free Charles Salberg, charged with
failing to register for military serv-
ice in 1917, it was learned today.
Representations have been made
to the Department of Justice by the
Disabled American Veterans against
the report that slackers were to
be exempt from punishment because
of the operation of the three-year
limit In answer to this complaint
department officials said there were
comparatively few men in the same
class as Salberg, who was freed be-
cause Of the failure to properly
furnish information" against him.
1t was pointed out that in tens of
thousands of cases of men who were
rated as evaders of the draft or
deserters the United States district
attorney at the place of residence
simply filed 'information" which
will operate as an indictment re-
CARELESS Of any time limits that OBJ
tain in other cases.
Between the draft evader and the
deserter there is sharp differentia-
ton, it was pointed out. The evader
who failed to register is being
handled by the Department of JUS
tice, while the deserter who failed
to report after being notified is
handled by military court-martial.
Many men are now serving time un-
der one or the other of these
charges, and that others have not
been brought to trial is due to the
congested condition of the calen-
dars of the courts in all sections of
the country.

STATE PRISON BOARD
OUTLINES POLICY

The members of the State Prison
Board outlined this week the policy
of the board in it's conduct of the
state prison affairs. The full men,
bership of the board was present,
Governor c. G. Moore, Attorney Cen
eral A. H. Conner and Secretary of
State F. A. letter and forward look
al the board believes that the pris-
oners should be restrained for a
length of time reasonably commensu-
rate to the offense committed; while
in the prison they should have COM
Portable clothing, good food and a
clean, well-ventilated place to sleep;
they should have sufficient work to
keep body and mind smployed for 4
days work and that they should have
an opportunity for healthful recrea-
ton and mental and spiritual develop
ment.
The board sets forth that most OF
the buildings and equipment at the
state penitentiary are Anticipated and
that the state will soon face the nee
cessity of building new penitentiary.
Modern cell equipment and cell
houses must be demanded soon. One
of the features most needed at this
time is the providing Of dormitory
for the separation of the boys or first
timers from the more or less habi-
tual criminals.
In the meantime the board will use
every effort to improve sanitary sys-
TENS under the present schedule. The
new shirt factory will aid materially
in solving problems Of discipline
since it will not only give employ
ment to idle hands and brains but
will give many prisoners an oppor-;
tunity to earn a slight pay.
