Received Their Orders. T.HB testimony of Dr. Fprwood, Chief Surgoon at Camp Wikoff, be- f6re tllfe War Investigation Hoard, that ho know of instanceSj.ln -which ronortors Jmd received orders to "'roilst everything," shows how the yellow press views its undoubted duty to the people. With preconceived and self-interested grievances against the Administration olliclals, these newspupers sent reporters to the camp, not to report what they saw, but deliberately to pick Haws In everything to - "roast" indiscrimin ately, and the sum total of their eft forts Is the great howl which went up against the conduct of the war. It is small wonder that the invest!, gatlon hus resulted in discovering nothing to bear out these charges. The reporters,, under obligations to "roast," or lode their positions, did the best they could which was at best very little and It only requires the calling of a few witnesses to riddle all the talk of gross incom latency, crying abuse and Inhuman favoritism. There lias never been any denial of the fact that mistakes were made the Administration ofilclals were only human after all but in the main they discharged their duties ably, and no one denies this now except those sheets mistakenly called news papers which conceive it to be their duty to "roast everything" when a disposition to Ignore their plans U shown by the onlclals in charge. ttHmnlitn tht stomach. roui the Mier, cure bilious- .....

They have been led to believe that womb trouble or female weakness of some sort is responsible for the many ills that beset womankind. Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy or dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism, a dragging pain or dull ache in the back, weak ness or bearing-down sensation, profuse or scanty supply of urine wilh strong odor, frequent desire to pass it with scalding or burning sensation, sediment in it after stand ing in bottle or common glass for twenty-four hours, are signs of kidney and bladder trouble. The above symptoms arc often attributed by the patient herself or by her physician to female weakness or womb trouble. Hence, so many fail to obtain relief, because they are treating, not the disease itself, but a reflection of the primary cause, which is kidney trouble. In fact, women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble and both need tbe same remedy. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Hoot Is the great dis covery of tbe eminent kidney and bladder specialist, and is easy to get at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar. To prove Its wonderful merits you mty have a sample bottle and book telling all about it, both sent absolutely free by mail.
