A client of ours came In, asked to
see my employer, who was busy and

asked me If his was ready. I told
him It was and went through them
and found his. I gave It to him and
remarked that It would save me the

At a conference In Christiania di-

Washington President Wilson In
his message to the Jaekson day diners
here said "the clear and single way”
to determine the will of the American
people on the league was to make It i
an Issue at the next election.
The president's message said noth
Ing whatever shout a third term for
himself snd neither did It say even by
Implication or Intimation that he
would not be s candidate, as had been
Widely forecast
Most of the president’s message was
devoted to an expression of his argu-
ment of why he considered It the duty
of the United States to Join In the
league of nations covenant and why
he considered the war not realiy won
I until It did. Another attempt to crush
the new nations of Kurojie would be
made, the president said. If the l otted
States held aloof.
The president again expressed his
i attitude toward reservations, much as
he did at his conference with the sen
ate foreign relations committee.
Bryan Bucks Wilson.
William J Bryan spilt openly with
President Wilson at the dinner on the
question of whether the democratic
party should make the league of na
tlons nn issue at the next election.
The former secretary of state, three
times a candidate for the presidency,
declared the democrats could not go
before the country on the Issue and
I that they must accept such compro
j mines as may be possible.
Owen's Speech.
Standing before the great gathering
of democratic men and women who
will have much to do with the naming
of the standard bearer to succeed
Woodrow Wilson, Senator Owen sum-
marked the achievements of the party
_ j since 1912 In brilliant language and
painted such a roseate picture of the
future of democracy that the Okla-
homa speaker outshone all but two of
the toast list in the applause of the
Jackson day audience.
“We should pass the peace treaty
Immediately,” Senator Owen declared
but he dtd Dot say with or without
reservations. His remarks indicated i
be would accept any reasonable reser-'
vat ions to get the world on its peace- [
ful way.
The Oklahoma speaker declared for
the repeal of the excess profits tax,

ment of education in addition to sum
Rocky Mount. Va.—Mias Mae Chit-
wood, of this place, recently stated: "I
have used Black-Draught for colds and
stomach trouble and certainly have
found It very satisfactory.
When I would feel bad and fever-
ish, as though I was taking a fresh
cold, I would make n good cup of
Bluck-Druught ten and it would aoon
art me all right
I ran recommend It as a splendid
laxative and gladly do so. You may
publish my statement.”
When you feel chilly, tired, fever
lah, headachy and fear that you are
taking cold, take a good dose of the
old, reliable, liver medicine you have
heard so much about—Thedford's
Black-Draught. It Is made from
purely vegetable Ingredients, acts in
a gentle, natural way, and by helping
to drive out poisonous waste matter
from your system, It will often, If
taken In time, prevent a chill from de-
veloping Into a cold.
Thousands of people, during the past
70 years, have found Black-Draught of
benefit In such cases.
Try It, the next time you chill or
sneeze.—Adv.

Too much evidence as to America’s
part in the war has been submitted,
Attorney General Palmer told the din-
ers for the case to be withdrawn from
the Jury now.
“The great war ta still a living fact,”
he said. "The hope of the world for
peace has been blasted by the jeal-
ousies of men who hold their political
fortunes above the world's need. The
war will not be over in fact, even if In
name, until the Issues which it has
raised are passed upon by the great
court of appeals In America and the
judgment of the people is entered.
In a telegram from Wichita Falls,
Texas, read at the banquet, William
O McAdoo assailed the work of tha
republican congress as a “sorry record
of dismal failure.” and declared the
success of democracy in the presiden-
tial election this year was inevitable
If leadership was wise, vision undis-
torted and sympathy with the masses
preserved.
"Republican leadership has demon
it rated startling incapacity to deal
with the great problems confronting
America and the world." Mr. McAdoo's
message read. "Nine month of repub-
lican leadership disclose no construct-
ive, humanitarian or statesmanlike
act.
"Peace defeated, war prolonged and
hundreds of thousands of needless
deaths inflicted upon helpless children,
; women and men In Europe—a ghastly
toll to exact for partisan political
1 ends.
William Jennings Bryan was given
credit by Secretary Daniels for laying

Washington — Radical changes In
(he present military system will be
niHde by the new army bill, details of
which were announced by Chairman
Wadsworth of the senate military
committee.
It would create one army divided In '
to three branches, the standing army,
the national guard, and a citizens' or
reserve army. The tlrst composed of
280,000 men and 18,000 officers would
be used for garrisoning and training
purposes while the national guard
would be available for service within
the states and to reinforce the regular
forces in emergencies. It also would
be use 1 under federal supervision lor
training purpotes under the universal
training plan.
The citizens, army would be com-
posed originally ol veterans of the
world war vc.1u.pm-i ing to enroll lor
shore periods «i»d later by boys com-
p.eting tho comae of compulsory mili-
tary training, who would be enollol
tor flee years. Members of this re-
serve would not be sub ect to military
service except In an emergency. Com-
pulsory military training would consist
of four months by youths of 19 and
vocation training in appropriate
trades. Veterans of the world war
would be excused from service.
The bill also provides for the or-
ganization of the air service as a sep-
arate combat branch of the army and
for n chief of each combat service in-
cluding infantry and cavalry.

A New York lawyer had a rich
client who was noted for her very

“Oh, Mr. B—, do you think you

she said to her lawyer.
"Undoubtedly," he replied, with a
twinkle In his eye. “I’ll prove con-
clusively to the court that you've nev-
er been able to see anyone worth
less than $100,000."
WOMEN NEED SWAMP-ROOT
Thousand* of women have kidney and

Women*’ complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition, they may cause the other or-
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am-
bition. nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.

among the hundreds of meat dis-
tributors, large and smaH, means
Rivalry in Prices
Rivalry in Service
Rivalry in Economy
Rivalry in Quality
Swift & Company sells meat
at the lowest possible price, con-
sistent with quality and servica
Our profit of only a fraction of a
cent a pound on all products is
evidence of keen competition.
Swift & Company must provide the
best service to your dealer or he will
buy from our competitors. This means
a supply of fine fresh meat always
on hand for you at your dealer’s.
Swift & Company must keep down
manufacturing and selling costs, and
use all by-products to avoid waste, or
else lose money meeting the prices of
competitors who do.
Swift & Company must make its
products of the highest quality, or see
you turn to others. This means bet-
ter meat for you and a greater variety
of appetizing, wholesome food.
We are as glad for this competition
as you should be. It helps to keep us
on our mettle.
