Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Should
Use Swamp-R0Ot

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. It stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
SO 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 applications
are declined do not even suspect that
they have the disease. Dr.. Kilmers
Swamp-Root is on sale at all drug stores
in bottles of two sizes, medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation, send ten cents to DR..
Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y, for q
sample bottle When writing, be sure
and mention this observation-disclosures

You can't gauge that exactly unless
You know how fast the car is coming

the rate of thirty eight feet a second.

Months Good Conditions 4re Appar-

businessfin those sections, particular
ly in the last six months of 1928, and
are optimistic over the outlook for
the farmer during the present year
Building operations, both with re-
spect to industrial plants and dwell
ings, were resumed during the past
year in practically all sections of the
country and have been carried on
along conservative lines Prices of
building materials have been on the
for the last few years, which. to-
gether with the natural demand for
building expansion. has made possible
stabilization of this important branch
OF industry.
Money Available.
Apparently there is plenty of
money available in this country today
to build and to buy. providing the
expenditures in the mind of the bor-
rover be wise and sound. BY that I
mean the banks, under the Steadying
influence OF the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn, are in n position to help where
help is needed. and ordinary observa
tion Will convince any man that the
tendency all along the line is for ad-
Vancement of industry on safe and
sound basis

dence almost throughout the land.
tial years of the past, when it was
taken for granted by men in all lines
OF business that the inevitable slow
up was naturally TO be expected.
Our banking system now is SO sound
that it will not permit of the slow
up of industry unless conditions aris-
ing from natural cause become Sc
rious enough to make advisable
general period Of liquidation.
Nothing like this appears on the
business horizon for 1924. Industry
is going forward; merchants are sell
ing their wares; farmers, on the
whole, are in good shape. and there
is money in the banks. Presidential
year has rolled around to find the
country moving forward with every
confidence in continued business ac-
tivity: presidential candidates are
opening their respective campaigns.
and Congress. in session, is planning
to give business in general added mo-
mentum by serious consideration Of
reduction in taxation.
so it would seem, looking only as
far ahead as July l. that the first, six
months of 1924 will be a period of
continued sound prosperity"

MAxWELL
TOLL BRIDGE BOTHER
WILL SOON DISAPPEAR
Maryland Rapidly Taking Over
: Collectors of Fees From Local
and Tourist Drivers.

BALTIMORE, March Sit will only
be a short time now before Maryland
will be entirely free of toll bridges,
according to John n. Mackall, chair
man of the state roads commission,
who returned recently from a confer
ence at Frederick. which resulted in
a price being fixed for the two Mary
land-Virginia bridges across the Po-
tomac river at Point of Rocks and
Brunswick.
There are six bridges that have
collected thousands of dollars in tolls
every year from interstate tourists
for the privilege of passing over the
Potomac river from Maryland to Vir-
ginia and West Virginia Maryland
is practically ready to act in every
case. Mr.. Mackall pointed out. In
fact, one has been acquired. The hitch
comes from Inadequate legislation
and delays In the neighborfng states
Acquisition Of the two bridges at
Point OF Rocks and Brunswick is now
waiting on action by Virginia, which
is to pay half of the purchase price,
as Maryland has the money already
appropriated and definite plan
mapped out.
The delay on the acquisition of the
Maryland-Wes Virginia bridges is
due to the fact that West Virginia
lacks adequate legislation to proceed.
Mr.. Mackall says.
The Hancock bridge has been pur-
chased for $4,000. and preparat
are being made to proceed against
the Harpers Ferry bridge The West
Virginia authorities, however. have
asked that a halt be called there until
legisla ton can be passed.
This would delay action in acquir-
ing the bridges at Shepherdstown and
Williamsport.
