II You Need a Medicine
You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why
it 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 1 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 q
SALE"
According to sworn statements and
verified testimony of thousands who have
used the preparation, the success of DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact,
SO many people claim, that it ful6lls al
most every wish in overcoming kidney,
liver and bladder ailments, corrects uri-
nary troubles and neutralizes the uric
acid which causes rheumatism.
You may receive a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root by Parcel Post. Address
DR.. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y,
and inclose ten cents; also mention this
paper. Large and medium size bottles
for sale at all drug stores.

Representative Theo-
dore e. Burton of Ohio is slated for
appointment by President Coolidge as
a member of the American delegation
to the international arms traffic con-
ference which will open in Geneva
May 4 under auspices of the League
Of Nations. He will be associated
with Hugh Gibson, American minister
to Switzerland, and possibly another
member, although, SO far as it is

with Secretaries Kellogg and Hooter,
and the task ahead of him in Geneva
is understood to have been under dis
cussion.
The appointment of Mr.. Gibson has
been a foregone conclusion since he
represented the United States in the
preliminary discussions at Geneva
which led up to the decision of the
Washington government to partici-
pate in the conference for the specific
purposes of drafting a convention for
the control of international traffic in
arms.
