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 almost every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments; corrects urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which cauaes rheumatism.

Prosecuted HliNfe Grandson for Theft ^ ' Syracuse, N. Y.--Mrs. Sophia Orr, 108 years old, is eagerly looking forward to casting her first vote for president in November. She probably will be the oldest woman lis the country to cast l»er ballot. She voted for the first time In the mayorallty election last year. "1 voted the Republican ticket," she stated proudly, "and that's why they won." The aged woman was the daughter of a lawyer, and was born in St. Albans, Vt„ 108 years ago, according t» her story. Prom there she moved to Muscoda, W1b., and later to Highgatet Miss., where she was married to Robert W. Orr. She remembers clearly the events of the war, in which her husband served, and has a vivid memory of her entire life down to the present Husband In Civil War. The little old lady likes to talk about her dead husband; who fought for his country back in the sixties. "He did his duty," she said resignedly, "and now he's up In Oakwood cemetery. Be gave two arms, wo legs aad hia eyes for his country." Although in her long lifetime Mrs. Orr never before had to resort to the law" for protection, she recently appeared against her grandson, Harvey D. Mullett, whom sh* charged wlfh stealing $140 from under her pillow. Mrs, Orr is the oldest woman to figure in court proceedings In the state; probably In the United States.

They managed to reach a Russian vessel and escaped to Japan. stand and gave her evidence against her grandson, when Mullett, who has appeared In police court before and Is Included ih the rogues' gallery, Remanded an examination. "Grandma, you know Fye always been true to you," said the accused grandson. "Harvey, you took my money, I saw you," insisted the little old lady, "and what's more you took my copper wash boiler a long time ago. "I've never forgotten that about Harvey," she stated gravely to the judge. "He took that and S3, and a ring which belonged to my dead husband. I know It was Harvey," she Insisted. * Mrs. Orr owns the house In which she occupies one apattment alone. "I was standing on my back porch telling my daughter-in-law heir to hang up a blanket to get' It dry," she declared to the judge. ' "I heard a noise and, saw Harvey coming out of my bedroom. When I went tn the money was gone." "He took my ' copper washboller, too." she reiterated, showing that the loss of the utensil was a hard thing to forgive. The grandson was arraigned after "grandma" had already told her story once, and demanded that she be put on the stand. "Grandma" had been waiting. She told hfi- story tn a clear voice and showed excellent hearing. The only difficulty with her as a witness was her desire* to plead with her grandson to return the money. "Why don't you give It to me, Harvey?" the little old )a<|J, pleaded again and again.

Lisbon, Portugal.--Gambling, which flourished hero to an extraordinary degree after the armistice, has suffered a severe check at the hands of the new government headed by Premier Baptista. Up to two months ago the gambling houses remnined undisturbed, but since Baptlsta's government took office the law has been rigorously enforced and today there are few visible signs of the prosperity the gamblers have enjoyed for a year. The gambling mania began to manifest Itself as soon as th* war ended. Magnificent clubs on which big fortunes must have been spent suddenly '?« • t»», • '"vr ' hi11';'l niijiminifcii . i n ijnn lin.i «*" sprang up like mushrooms; gilded, glittering clubs, splendidly furnished, such as Lisbon never dreamed of possessing. Palaces ss Gambling Dene. Palaces belonging to the old aristocracy were rented at incredible prices and transformed into "The Majestic," "The Palace Club," "Maxim's," "Palais Royal" and dozens of others on the same scale, with restauranta, ballrooms and gambling rooms; everything being perfectly planned and carried out on the most modern and expensive lines. Hundreds of smaller Imitations followed, until It may with truth be said that not a street in Lisbon was without two or three gambling houses. Thus a great change came over the humdrum social life of Lisbon, where nothing In the way of amusement ever happens beyond theaters and moving picture shows. The club restaurnnts' excellent cuisine attracted fashionable crowds, constant relays of Americans and English tourists spent their money lavishly and smartly dressed women coming nobody knows from where were a • 'V- t"1 ' ** ' % T: • -'> • #"'«• •» «• • «*•« • ' • i ' • ifi* . doubtful source of attraction In the streets by day and at the clubs by night. This condition existed for well over a year. Then well-known firms were robbed by trusted employees. An officer, who wore the cross of war, shot himself after losing large sums of money which were not his. Young men belonging to the beat families fell Into disgrace. Press Starts Campaign. A campaign was then begun by part of the Portuguese press, headed by the Seculo and the Situacao. Columns of letters from parents and well-known Llsbonites were printed dally, disclosing demoralizing facts and exhorting the government to close the clubs. The governments, however, rapidly succeeding each other, had other things to attend to. And the gambling continued ; but when the Baptista government came Into office strenuous measures were taken. The magnificent dubs, the glittering restaurnnts. the smart foreign women all disappeared as suddenly as they had burst upon the scene a year ago. For a week carts and camions conveying roulette tables pnd other bllng paraphernalia to the police tions formed the chief attraction of the Lisbon streets. Frequent attempts have since been* made to reopen resorts. Recently the Palais Royal club was re-established, ostensibly as a restaurant. Three days later it was Closed by the police, after a raid.

The most satisfactory event to mark so fsr the work of the American Museum of Natural History in Its excavation of the Pueblo fuln at Aider, N. M., Is the recent discovery of what was evidently the holiest shrine of this prehistoric people, records Popular Mechanics Magazine. It takes the form of a room, bare of furniture, but in perfect condition. The walls are plastered, and are painted In a glaring white with dull red borders and a frieze of triangular designs. On the celling beams are strange marks made by rubbing the palm and fingers In white paint, and then pressing them upon the wood. From these beams hang several strands of beautifully made rope, presumably for the support of somq sacred objects. On the ceiling, too, Is c«rved a serpent, two and one-half feet In length, and In design unlike anything known to the archeolo» gists In charge.

UNIONS IMPOSE "TAX" Exporters of Argentina ^ , Compelled to Pay. Alt Oecfc Laborers Demand Contiibutieiw to Maintain Boycott, and, Shipping Is Delayed. - "• Buenos Aires.--Unions of laborers connected with port activities In Buenos Aires and other ports of Argentina have imposed on exporters "their own private export taJ ' as a means of maintaining expensive boycotts now in force against exporters and shipping companies. This Is a complaint made by parting house establishments here to Minister of Finance Salaberry. At present more than 100 exporting firms are under boycott, in addition to the powerful Mibanovieh company, owner of most of the river and coastwise sblp- _ of the country. ^ committee representing neat andhide exporters told the finance minister that the dock laborers were refusing to load their overseas shipments unless^ the shippers made a contribution toward the support of the union of $7 for each 200 bales of wool and $3.50 for each 100 casks of tallow and like products. ' The delegation pointed out that these contributions could be^ called "extra-official export duties," and that some of them have been demanded since last May. It was stated that before any shipment cau he made application must be made to the labor union officials and that several days often elapse before the requisite "authority** Is allowed for embarking. 'fhe minister was told that In some cases the unions have demanded to see the exporter's books to make sure none of the produce to be exported came from any firm under boycott. A list of 106 exporters under boycott was submitted to the government and It WM pointed out chat while there art more than 220,600,000 pounds of unsold wool In the country and more than 1.000,000 hides, most of the leading exporters of these products, whose services are needed In relieving th< congestion, are not allowed to do business on account of boycotts. The boycott of the Mihanovicb company has held more than 200 vessel? In port for six months. Efforts of the government to settle the differences between the company and the workers have not met with success.
