Women as Well as Hen are Hade Miserable
by Kidney and Bladder Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind,
discourages and lessens ambition; beauty,
vigor and t beerful
ness soon disappear
when the kidneys are
out of order or dis
eased.
Kidney trouble has
1 become so prevalent
' that it is not uncom
-3 mon for a child to l>e
born afflicted with
weak kidneys. If the
child urinate* too often, if the urine scalds
the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an
age when it should be able to control the
passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet
ting, depend upon it, the cause of the diffi
culty is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these imjiortantorgans. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of
the kidneys and bladder and not to a
habit as most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made miser
able with kidney and bladder trouble,
and both need the same great remedy.
The mild and the immediate effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. It is sold
by druggists, in fifty
ccnt and one-dollar
size bottles. You may
have a sample bottle
by mail free, also a j
pamphlet telling all ■
about Swamp-Root, ii.,,,.. _
including many of the thousands of testi
monial letters receiver! from sufferers
who found Swamp-Root to be just the
remedy needed. In writing Dr. Kilmer
& Co., Binghamton, N. V., be sure and
mention this jxijier. Don’t make any
mistake, but remember the name, Dr.
Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, and the address,
Biughamton, N. Y., on every bottle.

Summary of Work Oooe
By the General Assembly
Atlanta, Ga., —Statistically speak
ing the general assembly of Georgia
passed at the session of 1910, 291 bills
and 43 resolutions, the vast majority
of which were of a local nature or
of minor importance, such as bills
i amending town charters or city court
laws.
Approximately sixty of these meas
ures are a general or state wide in
terest and application, though some
of these relate merely to temporary
; affairs. ’
The senate passed 255 house bills
and 34 house resolutions, while the
house enacted 36 senate bills and 9
senate resolutions. These figures in
clude the whiole business, from the
general tax act clear down to the
resolution providing for sine die ad
journment of the general assembly
Considering the freedom with which
local bills are enacted this is not an
astonishing amount of legislation by
any means; some legislatures have
gone over the 400 mark. Wherefore
would seem an average of less than
‘ [ one and one-half bills or resolutions
, to each member is extremely conserv
ative.
The most important measure to the
state were, of course, the bills provid
ing for raising the revenues and appro
printing money for the support of
■ [ the state’s institutions.
The tax bill passed at this session,
lit is said, will raise more revenue
than any like measure passed in the
I \ history of the state. There is no tell
! ing as yet how much it will bring in
| to the treasury. Friends of the Alex
ander near beer prohibition section
'of the tax bill, which was lost, ad
; mltted that if it had been carried
[ it would have reduced the state’s rev
: enue from that source something like
1 i 9u per cent. Representative Ander
[ son of Chatham, who led the fight
i in the house against the Alexander
section, says that the Price substi
• j
: tute as finally adopted, although it
■ vastly reduces the area in which neat
beer may be sold will greatly increase
the state’s revenue, and he predicts
It will bring in something like $350,-
000 a year, as the result of the in
-1 creased tax, which is made SI,OOO
on manufacturers and wholesalers
and S3OO on retailers.
Other features of the general tax
bill which will bring in added reve
nue are the tax on soda fountain
sirups, gross receipts; the dog tax
or $1 on each dog and various other
specific taxes which have either been
Increased or introduced into the bill
for the first time.
The general appropriations bill pass
ed almost identically as It was pre- !
pared by the house committee on ap
[ propriations, carried a total of $4,-
; 968,860, which, by special appropria
tions will go to considerably more i
than $5,000,000.
About the only extensive increase ;
made in general appropriations was a
addition of $250,0000 for common 1
schools in 1911, making the appro
priation for that year $2,500,000.
Hut special appropriations were few
and far betwween as compared with
those enacted by recent legislatures.
I The largest among them was the ’
; bill to appropriate $65,800 to purchase i
87 1-2 acres of land near Chattanoo-
[ga to be used for terminals by the :
[ Western and Atlantic railroad, the I
state's property. This purchase how
ever, is only to be made after it has
been approved by the governor.
Next comes the appropriation of
$22,000 for the purpose of giving to [
each of the district agricultural [
schools an additional $2,000, or as
rttuch of it as may be necessary with
I the fund derived from fertilizer and [
oil inspection, to give each school a
I total of SIO,OOO a year.
Other special appropriation bills,
gave the department of entomology ■
|slo,ooo for the purpose of fighting;
["black root" and other diseases of
cotton; $5,000 to the state board of
health to enable it to continue the
work of Pasteur treatment for hy
drophobia: $6,500 to purchase a new
codification of the laws of Georgia
made by Judge John L. Hopkins, of
Atlanta, one of Georgia's most learn
od lawyers; SB,OOO to erect a ne
' gro reformatory building and a hospit
al for tuberculosis patients on the stat<
prison farm in Baldwin county; $5,-
000 to maintain cattle quarantine
lines to protect cattle from disease:
$4,812.57 to pay the state's commis
[ sions to the receivers of the Neal
1 bank, a defunct state depository, and
various other small appropriations
; for different purposes.
The only special appropriation bill
[of any consequence wliicji failed to;
. pass the senate after having iiassed
the house, was that by Mr. McMahan
of Clarke, and others, appropriating
$300,000 to pay pensions to certain
l veterans and widows not now on the'
pension rolls, but who come under
[the terms of the Foster service pen
j sion amendment to the constitution
adopted last year. This bill was not
reported by the committee until the
*, last day of the session, hence could
I not be brought up for passage.
