PROVEN SWAMP ROOT
AIDS WEAK KIDNEYS

The symptoms of kidney and bladder
troubles are often very distressing and
leave the system in a rundown condition.
The kidneys seem to suffer most, as al
most every victim complains of lame back
and urinary troubles which should not be
neglected, as these danger signals often
lead to more dangerous kidney troubles.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which, 80
many people say, soon heals and strength
ems the kidneys, is a splendid kidney,
liver and bladder medicine, and, being
an herbal compound, has a gentle heal
ing effect on the kidneys, which is al
most Immediately noticed in most cases
by those who use it.

thrifty Dutch for many years.
Dutch is the official language Of the
island, of course, though English Is
mostly spoken. The natives speak
Dutch and English slightly and have
a peculiar mixture of French, Span
ish, Dutch and Indian that is their
chief tongue. This language is very
crude and is never learned. simply alb
sorbed.
Scenes upon the streets of Willem-
stad are certain to entertain every one
who has come here for the first visit
Many of the streets are very narrow,
but always clean. and the views along
them form an interesting study.
In the hotels the food, though not
always of the best quality, is cooked
very well and is served In an appetite
ing way. Considering the prices
charged by the hotels and the prices
which they are required to pay for
the food, the fare Is very good.
Outside of Wilemstad itself there
is little to interest anyone. The
island receives a small rainfall. Luck
lily for the inhabitants, Willemstad is
free port, and they therefore are
able TO import many foods and goods
without having to pay much more for
them than cost at their point of orig
ination.
The Dutch government maintains
200 soldiers from Holland and an equal
number of native militia ut Willem-
stad. This force acts under the COM
mand of the governor and is for serv-
Ice in all parts of the island. The
peaceful nature of the islanders, how
ever, seems to make the maintenance
of this force a needless expense.

Entering the Harbor.

AS the ship drifts toward its dock
a passenger may, get good view of
the town. The architecture fas-
cinates the busy condition Of the dock
and adjoining streets, where hundreds
of people seem to swarm at their work,
gives an impression Of hustling, and
much alive tropical town. As the
ship goes on past break IN the line
Of buildings the lagoon is observed to
the right, and down to its edge hun
dreds of homes whose tile roofs appear
in varied contrast under the sun. These
homes, the passenger will soon learn,
If he chooses to hire an automobile at
81 an hour to ride about the town, are
ideal in cleanliness.
Many ships are always to be found
in the Willemstad harbOr. Even dur
ing the war there usually are three or
four steamers at dock in addition TO
many one, two and three-masted sail
ing schooners, which ply between Gu
racao and ports of Venezuela. Be
cause Of these ships and for the rea-
son that many business houses are
down at the edge of the water, Willem-
stad gives an immediate impression Of
much hustle and activity.
The business places themselves. even
with ships absent, would contribute
much toward making this same impress
sion. And, due to these scenes Mt the
dock, during the hours Of regular bust
ness, the passenger, even though he
never leaves his ship, always carries
away a picture Of this little town that
he never will forget.
Back among the homes that border
upon the water of the lagoon Is TO be
found "SpOtless Town." If anywhere
in the world outside of Holland such
a town exists. These homes. with their
Dutch architecture. are as free from
dirt and other things that detract
from good looks and comfort as any
homes can be.
The kitchens are splck and span,
with floors scrubbed white and corners
entirely free from dirt. The living
rooms. the bedrooms. the dining rooms
all are ideal in cleanliness.

" Curacao, n Dutch island that
is but 40 miles from the
northern coast of Venezuela and only
little more than 100 miles from La
Guayra, port town for Caracas, capital
of Venezuela. No other island of the
West Indies so nearly represents, by
its physical appearance and its peo-
pie, the country of the Zuyder Zee as
does this quaint, pretty and very hos
pitable little island, chief possession
of the Dutch In the Caribbean.
The sea comes into Willemstad,
port city of Curacao, to form a land
locked harbor, unlike any other in the
West Indies. This harbor, which is
nearly half mile long, very deep and
large, forms spacious port of call for
many ships at one time. Two Dutch
forts, which are none too formidable
in looks, but which appeal to one be-
cause of their squatty, somber,
"Dutchy" appearance, guard the en-
trance to the harbor. A bridge spans
the narrow channel just above the
forts, and is swung bach for ships
coming in or going out, to. leave the
way clear.
About the town Of Willemstad itself
there is a charming influence which
Immediately wins the stranger. so
much like the mother country is this
little port. The architecture is Dutch |;
the buildings themselves might have
been brought bodily from Amsterdam,
so much do they resemble the physical
features of that Dutch city. The town
Is built down to the water front on
both sides Of the main inlet Of the har-
Dor as well as along the lagoon.
Just above the forts and on the
right side as ship enters, stands
the governors home and the general
government buildings, a pleasing sight.
Extending along the same side and
also running along the opposite shore
are the business houses, which stand
but few feet back from the water
itself.
