Dawes of Chicago (portrait herewith), thai he ' was an own brother of Gen. Charles O. ("H 1 and Maria") Dawes, who used to be comptroller and achieved fame as head of the budget bureau. By that these Intimate friends mean that Brother Henry's speech is by com parison meek and mild and that he doesn't stage a war dance during a warm argument. "Be Is retiring in nature, but a thorough financier said one of bis friends. "I have never known a mora able man. It Isn't difficult for him to form a Judgment He was trained that way. He is what might be called a conservative type. But he's also fearless. He plays an average game of golf, has a keen sense of humor and Is a pleasant conversationalist He hu never run for office nor held one. . The new controller Is connected wltB many financial institutions and hold ing companies, notably in the gas and electric field. He and his three brothers, Charles Q, Rufus C. and Beman O.

And nobody knows whether or not it contain the mummy of the Pharaoh. .:. ' ;: a, -v - ' W. Z. Foster Is Now Its purpose in that it has brought out L ri practice of tha Reds In this country. , . For instance, Matthew Woll of Chicago, vice president of the American Fed eration of Labor, regards with a cold eye the.

"It has been slowly and wobbling- ly climbed back to another peak, hav lng' now recovered almost two-thirds of the phenomlnal drop." he stated. "This means looser money and better spot prices, but the basis is appar ently lmmeansurably high. ' High prices may not be counted on for this year's crops. A depression Is inevl table. "The past war panic Is apparently over. We hope It may not be only temporarily so. The average Ameri lorarllr i Is at V can Is at work and trade is active, City prosperity.

Now Is the 'best time to study the situation carefully and to plant fcash crops on a safe farming bals only, "The two Items that offer a real opportunity for safe expansion . are sheep and cotton.. There is a short age in the stocks of these. Corn and hay as raw materials, usually move with the livestock prices. The Indl vldual farm problem Is tremendous. "Farming still Is at a considerable disadvantage among the national pro ductive industries. Being driven to It, the more progressive farmers took the initiative, and until now there has been strong sentiment in their fav or that was not there before. None but the 'reasoning, farmer with pro gressive methods may have a chaace to. make ends meet this year." State Refuses to Submit Case.

"My arother came to see me and told me to get Cardul. My husband went to town and brought home two bottles which I took. M once I began to im prove, although up to that time I had taken medicine, but it had not helped me at all. From the first dose of Cardul my appetite began to come back. "I had been suffering from female trouble. . .was so weak and In such a run-down condition. That was two years ago.... I kept on taking Cardul as a tonic. 'My appetite Is good. I certainly owe a lot to this fine medicine. Nothing did me any good until I began to take It It made me gain 48 pounds. I don't weigh quite so much now on account of the baby nursing, but I feel perfectly well. I am very grateful for what It has done for me, for I was suffering agony when I began to take it" Writing later of her experience In the use of Oardul, Mrs. Stuart said: "My health Is better now than ever and am proud to say Cardul did It" Poet With Blank Mind. Poet I put my whole mind into this poem. Editor Evidently. I see that It's blank verse. p If 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 I have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent re sults, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large a sale."' v 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 fulfills 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 enclose ten cents; also mention this paper. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug stores. Advertisement. It Is better to break up a quarrel than to patch It tip. ron i:;c:c3no:j ?
