Suffered for Years
Miserable From Kidney Trouble
Doan's Made Mr. Harnett
Strong and Well.
"I suffered untold agony with my
kidneys for yeara," says John Burnett,
30 Virginia Place, Buffalo, N. Y.
"Sometimes I felt that I, would burn
up with fever, but every now and then
would have a severe cnill. Often my
clothes were wring
ing wet with per
spiration. The kid
ney secretions were
unnatural in color
and odor and
burned terribly. At
night my shoes
were so tight on
my feet that I

them off and my
hand swelled so I
couldn't hold a tea

how it achedl I
Mr. Bunttt
walked with two canes and was all
bent over like an aged man. When the
terrible pains shot through my kidneys
my knees would give way, and many
times I had to be lifted to my feet by
people on the street. I didn't care
whether I lived or died I was so mis
erable. I finally used Doan's Kidney
Pills and they cured me of all kidney
trouble. Doan's made me strong and
well."

Choice in Adoption Runs tb Young Girl Infants
WASHINGTON. The census bursau Is publishing vital stntlstlcs for 1020
as fast as they can be compiled, but the enumerators will never catch
up with the population. Ilcports
gooo!
decrcaso lu the number of babies
which had been abandoned by their parents during the year.
The desire of mothers who cannot support their babies to assure a good
home for them rather than trust to the comparative uncertainty of an Insti
tution, has been evidenced through several Instances of babies being "auction
ed off," In some cases even before birth. People ndopting babies genernlly
want them extremely young. Girls appear to have a slightly better chance
than boys of obtaining parents.
New York reported 22,C00 births this year, compared with 21,105 last year.
Foster parents usually prefer girl babies one year of age or under. Other
iltles reported as follows:
Atlanta GG0 and 400. Adoptions Increased. Preference girls.
Cleveland 3,270 and 3,0."0. Very few adoptions, but always more appli
cations than children. ,
Milwaukee 1,744 and 1,801. No special preference on sex, but apparent
prejudice against "red heads."
St. Paul, Minn. 003 and 721. Adoptions doubled. Preference "blond
boya of two years."
St. Louis 2,483 and 2,121. Boys have slight ndvantago In adoptions.
San Francisco 1,543 and 1,372. Adoptions Increased. Baby boys under
year have the call.
Swiss Afraid They Are to Be "Cosmopolitanized"
FOREIGN advices state that Switzerland Is today putting up the grentcst
fight of her life to save herself from being "cosmopolitanized." Never
since the day that William Tell shot the tipple off his son's head have the
Swiss faced a situation In which they
felt that their national and individual
existence was so threatened as now,
nnd that from a danger that no peo-
pie, no nation, no race nas ever yet
For even New York, with Its hun
dreds of thousands of various nation
alities, still remains essentially Amer
ican. But Switzerland Is convinced she
can hope for no such luck, If she per
mits herself to be swamped with the
waves of people that are now pouring over her bprders. '
While Switzerland Is still attracting hundreds and thousands of political
refugees who for one reason or another are persona non grata In the now
states, and even tho old ones, that are growing out of tho peace conference
adjustment, yet by for the principal number now seeking to oozo Into Switzer
land are men of great wealth, usually war profiteers, who ore seeking to es
cape the burden of taxation awaiting them 11' they continue their citizenship
In any one of the countries that went to war and now has a war Indebtedness
to pay off.
In a small country like Switzerland, however, this situation Is dangerous.
The Swiss see clearly that all of this vast wealth now coming into the coun
try eventually will be Invested in Swiss Industries. That means all the finan
cial, Industrial and econoniic life of the country will soon bo In the hnnds of
foreigners. ' ,
Then front private control to public control Is but a step. The naturali
sation laws of Switzerland at the present time are very loose und easy.
As a consequence the Swiss are now putting up u vallnjit fight to save
themselves from this "cosmopolltanlzatlon" largely through the revision of
their naturalization laws and their regulations permitting foreigners to reside
In their country.
Peace Treaty Amenities Between Two Secretaries
THE greeting which George II. Sanderson, secretary of the senate, received
at the White House executive ofllces when he delivered the peace treaty
there, could hardly be called cordial. Mr. Sanderson inquired politely for
Mr. Tumulty, tho president's secretary,
peared and ushered him Into the pres
ence of Mr. Tumulty. The greeting scarcely exceeded a curt nod.
"I have with me,' said Mr, Sanderson, "the treaty of peace which the
senate has directed me to return to the president. Here It Is."
"All right," sod Mr. Tumulty gnifily, "put it down."
Mr. Sanderson deposited It on Mr. Tumulty's desk.
"And this accompanies It," Mr.
Tumulty a copy of the senate's resolution formally notifying tho president
that the treaty had been rejected.
"I should like a receipt," said Mr. Sanderwn. Mr. Tumulty signed his
name to a scrap of paper which read as follows:
"Receipt Is acknowledged of the treaty of peace with Germany signed at
Versailles on June.US, 1019. Time 11:45 o. in."
The two secretaries bowed Httflly
