or Allen; they are apparently in thorough
sympathy and accord; and there is no
likelihood of a repetition of Porter's de-
feat in his engagement with the traSclble
Secretary Chandler. Admiral Porter al
ways chafed under the restraint imposed
by the presence in the navy OF a clVlhan
as Secretary. His recommendations re-
ceived but scant attention and ne was
snubbed. Porter had offices IN
the same building. but some distance
away from those of the Secretary OF the
Navy, and the latter, with a refinement OF
cruelty determined to put Porter in a
position where he would be made to real
ize that q civilian ruled the navy. one
when Porter came into his office
he found q workman busy putting in an
electric wire and other accessories to
telegraph call from the Secretary's office.
Porter was diSgusted and sWOre that he
was no lob-lolly boy nor laclley, and that
the Secretary might ring and be bloWed,
hut that he would not stir in obedience to
a summons of that kind. In due time the
call bell was in working order and soon
after its ting-a-ling indicated that the
Secretary desired Admiral Porter to come
to his office. The old salt scowled at the
offending bell, made some irrelevant re-
marks unfit for publication and-hurried
as fast as he could to Secretary Chand-
ler's office 1t was hard but necessary

cause of apprehending a similar incident

Swamp-ROOt has been tested in so
many ways, in hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless, too poor
to purchase relief, and has proved so
successful in every case that a special
arrangement has been made by which
all readers of The Call, who have not
already tried it, may have a sample

You are in no danger of being sick if
you keep your kidneys well.
They filter your blood and keep it
pure and free from disease breeding
germs.
Your other organs may need care, but
your kidneys most, because they do
most.
If you are sick, begin with your kid
neys, because as soon as they are we'll
they will help all the other organs to
health.
The treatment of some diseases may
be delayed without danger, not so with
kidney disease.
Swamp Root is the great medical tri-
umph Of the nineteenth century; dis
covered after years of untiring effort
and research by the eminent kidney
and bladder specialist, DR.. Kilmer, and
has truly wonderful healing action on
the kidneys and bladder.
It will be found by both men and
women just what is needed in all cases
of kidney and bladder disorders, lame
