If You Need a Medicine You Should Have the Bast Have you ever stopped to reason why it la that so many products that ora extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon lorgol ten? The reason Is plain the article did not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more par ticularly to a medicine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells llself, as like an end less chain system the remedy is recom mended by those who have been bene fited. to tImee who are in need of It. A prominent druggist says "Take for example l)r. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot, a preparation I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recom mend, for In almost every case it shows excellent results, as many of my customers testify. No other kid ney remedy hae so large a sale.” According to sworn stalaments and verified testimony of Ihdusands who have used the preparation, the suc cess of Dr. Kilmers Hwamp-Root Is due to the fact, so many people Halm, that It fulfills almost every wish In overcoming kidney, liver nnd bladder ailments, corrects urinary troubles ^m»I neutralizes the uric acid which li^causes rheumatism.

In part he said: “The western railroads are here seeking authority from the interstate commerce commission to reduce their rates on 41 commodity items from Chicago and points west to Pacific coast terminals, without making cor repsonding or any reduction in the rates on the same commodities to des tinations in infermountain territory. “The result, if the application is granted, will be that on these commo dities a higher charge will be collect ed on shipments destined to directly Intermediate points in the Intermoun tain territory than are collected when the shipments go beyond the Pacific coast terminals. Seek Volume Increase. “It is my wish to make it very clear that the desire of the railroads to pub lish, under the permit sought in this proceeding, rates to the Pacific coast terminal cities lower than concurrent ly maintained to intermediate points, is for the purpose of increasing the total volume of their traffic, and thereby increasing their net revenues, to the end that their financial situ ation may l>e improved and thus as sist in creating a situation which will permit them, after setting aside a fail return on ther property, to reduce rates where relief is most needed. "I wish to emphasize particularly the fact that the rates to the Pacific coast cities proposed in this applica tion will return to the railroads an amount substantially In excess of the "out-of-pocket cost” for transporting the freight, and greatly in excess of any net amount they could hope to earn on such of the business as they might secure against existing water competition at the higher rates now in effect. "This statement is offered ill an effort to make it very plain Hint the yaffle to he transported under the re duced rates will not create a burden upon other traffic. Competition Is Difficulty. "The difficulty which it Is sought to correct to the reasonable degree contemplated hy our application is purely carrier competition—one of rates—rafes from points upon or ad jacent to the Atlantic seaboard via the Panama canal to I'nited States Pacific coast points as compared with tjic rates via the all-rail routes from Chicago. St. I-ouis. Milwaukee, St. Paul, Minneapolis. Omaha or Kansas City, and other interior points to the same Pacific coast points. "It is manifest to the traffic officers of the railroads, who have given much thought and study to the matter, that if there is not an adjustment of tlie freight rates to a basis which will be comparable to thhse obtainable from the Atlantic coast, these interior njan ufacturers, producers and shippers will be forced gradually to withdraw from the trade and permit the transfer of business to Atlantic seaboard cities from which the movement .will be largely via the Panama canal, to the great detriment of the interior cities, of which Chicago, St. Louis, Milwau kee, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Omaha and Kansas City are typical examples, also of the railroads which serve them, or they must develop and use a cheaper transportation route via gulf ports, and the Panama canal, which will likewise prove detrimental to the railroads."

Coolidge Savs Farm Flight Is Danger to U. S. Sees Right Step in Parley of Crop Growers and Manu facturers—Red ^ a ru ing Voiced. Chicago, Jan. 14.—The conference of farmers and manufacturers which opened today received the endorse ment of President Calvin Coolldge, who in a letter said that the purpose of the meeting, "true cooperation,” was evidence that the right diagnosis of the situation menacing agricul ture, and likewise every other ele ment in the community, had been found. Unless means to relieve the farmer is ascertained, the president said, the menace to alt elements would con tinue. With the purpose of forming a permanent alliance of farmers and manufacturers for the mutual bene fit of both, the conference which is under the auspices of the Illinois Manufacturers’ association, opened with nearly 400 delegates attending President Coolidge in his letter said: "Jt Is perfectly apparent to all of us that we shall not have real and permanent prosperity for the whole country, nor for the greater part of It, bo long as any large and vital important section of its productive Industry is unable to prosper. The plight of the farmer in recent years hag been and will continue, until we find means of relieving agricul ture, a menace to the prosperity of every other element in the com munlty.” Fred R. Marvin of the New York Commercial, told the delegates that there is in this country a large, well organized. skillfully managed and sufficiently financed movement that has for Its purpose the overthrow of the government and the confiscation of all private property, “by bloody revolution should that become neces sary, in order that there may be erected on the ruins a purely social Utlc form of government and a pure ]y communistic form of business These forms would take from the individual all hope, aspiration ami initiative, would abolish home sur roundings, crush In the human heart every spark of religious sentiment and would abandon the family rela tions." Recognition of the Russian soviet government is not sought to relieve the "Intolerable'’ conditions in Rus sia, Mr. Marvin said, but to give the Internationale an opportunity to fill the embassies and sonsular offices with trained propagandists who will give their efforts toward undermln ing American institutions.
