realization that this is city But
as one follows the tiny car on its jour
ney one notices it passing a little
truck farm with its regular rows Of
beets and cabbages and its notice that
fresh vegetables right out of the farm
are to be had daily. A truck farm on
Broadway! Truly, New York is a

and the car is passing Il quaint white
wooden church that looks as though it
had just stepped out of the pages of
Rip Van Wrinkle.
In another direction roll out before
the eye the wide acres of Van Cort-
landt Park and beyond it the varied
landscape of Westchester county; on
the other side the Harlem river and
more wooded and rocky hillside, on
the Bronx side, with the columns of
the Hall of Fame completing the pic
ture. Truly. it is Il view worth going
many a mile to see, never lacking in
interest or variety, and thoroughly
typical of the great city wherein it
lies. The city man loves that view
and goes there often to rest by look
ing above the rush and hurly-burly
and noise of the city, at the beauties
which lie on the higher level of vision.

OLD AND PROFITABLE TRADE
Chinese Government Derives a Hand.
some Revenue From the Tea Mar
kets of Szechuan Province.

The tea trade of Tatsieniu, in the
Chinese province of Szechuan, near
the Tibetan border. was first started
in the reign of Yung Cheng, some 200
years ago. At that time, it is said,
Tatsienlu did not exist as town, but
tents were pitched in the valley, and
the Tibetans gathered and bartered
on the occasion of religious fairs.
The tea trade Is now established
under government control. yielding a
handsome revenue. Licenses are is
sued quarterly, and taken up by over
100 firms engaged in the trade. Each
license costs one tael in Chinese
money! equivalent to about so cents in
American exchange The license al
lows the holder to import five bales of
tea into Tatsienlu, more being permit
ted according to requirements.
Tea has become almost indis-
pensable to the Tibetans, hence they
ket, to which they bring their own
products for sale or exchange. One
of the largest firms in Tatsienlu buys
as many as 10000 bales, others 10000
bales. The total regular licenses is
sued annually is given as 100000. The
licenses were formerly issued at
Chengtu, but the authority was trans
ferred to Tatsienlu in 1918.
Under the old arrangement, the tax
was paid when the tea actually passed
tho local customs Ht TatSienI1 Now
1t is paid when the licenses are issued,
or within three months Of that time.
The annual turnover is fully 100000
taels. Since the trade has been eS-
tabiished so long, it has probably
reached Its maximum. but with seri-
Gus competition from India. which the
Chinese have feared for many years,
the trade in Tatsienlu would decline
materially.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect Il
Applications for Insurance Often
Rejected

Judging from reports from drug
gists who are constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is one
preparation that has been very sue
cessful in overcoming these condi-
tions. The mild and healing influence
Of DR.. Kilmers Swamp Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its
remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of
the prominent life insurance compan-
les, in an interview of the subject,
made the astonishing statement that
one reason why so many applicants
for insurance are rejected is because
kidney trouble is SO common to the
American people, and the large ma
jority of those whose applications are
declined do not even suspect that
they have the disease. DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root is on sale at all drug
stores in bottles of two sizes, medi-
um and large.
However, if you wish first to test
this great preparation send ten cents
to DR.. Kilmer Co., &Binghamton, N.
| Y, for sample bottle. When writing
be sure and mention the Salem Cap-
ital Journal.
