ONE-HALF BOTTLE OF THE
GREAT KIDNEY REMEDY
ACCOMPLISHES RESULTS
When I sent for a sample bottle of
Swamp-Root, I was In great distress day
and night. Before I received the sample
by mall, I went to our best doctor (and
ho Is Becond to none In this vicinity) and
told him how I felt. He put mo up a
bottle of medicine. I was about a week
taking the medicine, but was no better
than when I began. I then began your
sample bottle, and before I got through
with It, I felt a change. The scalding
sensation did not bother only a few times
In the middle of the day. I would not
have believed such a small quantity
would have done so much, but before it
was gono I learned that our druggist
kept Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root and so
got a large bottlo for one dollar, but
actually worth one hundred dollars, 1
only took one largo tablespoonful three
times a day and before I had taken one
half bottle I was all right and have been
since. Gratefully-, yours

Governor to Name
Veterinary Board
(From a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 29. (Speclal.)-
Govornor Morehead will call a session
of the stato board of veterinarians
somo time next week for the purpose of
appointing a new board to take the placo
of Dr. J, S. Anderson of Seward, Dr.
J. D. Sprague of David City and Dr.
W. IL Tuck of Weeping Water. Rumor
has it that Dr. Anderson will be the only
old member who will recelvo an appoint
ment, the othe rtwo having in some way
Incurred the ill will of Dr. Davis, the
Lincoln veterinarian, who was denied a
permit to practlco and was last week
granted a permit by Governor Morehead
and Secretary of State Walt over the
report of the examining physicians, who
reported that Davis failed to pass.
It Is sold that Davis has told the board
that Anderson is all right and as the
board has seen fit to favor Davis
against tho examiners It Is probable that
the recommendation of Davis will havo
weight with 'the Aboard.
This Is, another' Instance of a duplica
tion of commissions and board In this
state and instead of decreasing the num
ber it seems to be tho policy of the
present political conditions to Increase
even to the point of duplication. Just
why there should be a state veterinarian
board composed of state officers who
know nothing whatever about tho veter
inary business and then another board
of examiners under them to examine ap
plicants whoso recommendation need not
havo weight Is hard to tell.

INSURGENT WOODMEN
FIGHTING IN LINCOLN
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Nov. 29. (Spedal.)-If In
surgent Woodmen In Lincoln have their
way, Head Consul A. R, Talbot will not
head the Modern Woodmen of America
after the next election.
Representative of lacol camps met In
tho city last night rend listened to
speeches by James V. Beghtol, president
of the national committee and A. L.
Corey of Clay Center, who aro opposed to
the proposed change In rates as advo
cated by the head officers.
Mr. Beghtol denounced the procedlnga
of the last head camp as "machine con
trol," and that master politicians put up
the .bill of fare and forced It through
against tho best Judgment of the dele
gates. Delegations were forced to voto
ngnlnst their Instructions. As an In
stance of how the unfairness was shown
ono delegation representing salaries of
133,007 voted -seventeen for the raise In
rates while another delegation of twenty
threo ropresntlng sularlls of only $7U
voted against the raise. ,
Mr. Corey said In his remarks that he
was not looking for any office, but was
fighting for the grey haired.. men of the
order and would work for the removal of
every head officer from consul down.

A Diamond is the one article of adornment which
does not deteriorate with "Time." In buying them
it behooves one to bo suro that they are getting what
is paid for. "Perfect cut" or "perfect color" is mis
