a medicinal preparation that has real
curative value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need of it.
A prominent druggist says "Take for
example DR.. 'Kilmer's Swamp-Ro a
preparation 1 have sold for many years
and never hesitate to recommend, for In
almost every case it shows excellent re-
suits, as many of my customers testify.
No other kidney remedy has so large

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 fulflls al.

Historic Tract
Being Reclaimed

Before that time 1t was a sort Of
terrestrial paradise; villas and gar
dens were dotted all over it as far as
the eye could see, 1t was luxuriant
with fruits and flowers, It supplied
food and work for thousands upon
thousands Of men, 1t was one Of the
most beautiful and intensely cultivat-
ed spots in the world.
When Rome, however, was obliged
to resign her position as "the mistress
Of the world" the "campagna" was
abandoned and gradually became a
marshy, malaria-infected desert, In
habited only by few hardy shep-
herds.
New Law Having Effect.
Now, however, the law which was
recently passed, decreeing that any
one who does not cultivate his land
to the utmost Of its capacity is liable
to have the land confiscated, is be-
ginning to have its effects. Prince
AldobFandini has engaged company,
to reclaim a huge estate of several
thousands of acres, which he owns I'M
the "campagna."
The work already has begun and
an experimental station has been yet
up at Ostia. The land was first OF
all drained and then arrangements
were made to obtain water from the
Tiber for irrigation. Electric tractors
to draw the plows were then bought
and various kinds of fruit, vegetables
and cereals were cultivated in order
to find out how fertile the land is and
what kind Of crop 1t is most adapted

Soon after he was sworn into office
Secretary of State Hughes gave utter
ance to high ideals in the course Of an
interview arranged for The Worlds
Work and which was published in the
June issue Of that magazine. As to
appointments in the diplomatic SER
VICE Mr.. Hughes declared:
1T is necessary to select able and
weI-uained men for such important
work, men particularly trained in the
field of diplomacy. Errors and indis-
cretions on their part may involve
US in war, and good judgment and
diplomatic adroitness may prevent
grave and serious misunderstanding.
The tasks TO be accomplished are too
important to be left to unframed
hands. A man must be thoroughly
trained TO succeed in any line. This
applies no less to diplomacy than it
does to other work"
These are fine sentiments and very
creditable to our Secretary Of State.
No doubt they were uttered in all
sincerity, for Mr. Hughes is a high
type Of man himself and the petty
ways Of small politicians doubtless
are distasteful to him.
1t must therefore have been with
out the earnest approval Of Mr..
Hughes that George Harvey was
nominated for Ambassador to Great
Britain-an appointment which could
not by any possibility have been much
worse, since Harvey proved his total
unftness with his first public utter
ance after arriving in England
And how it must grind" Secre-
tary Hughes to have the President
announce, as he did the other day
the appointment of eight ministers
to foreign countries, of whom only
one rs man particularly trained in
the field Of diplomacy" The other
seven are unknown Republican poll
ticians, not one of whom has had any
diplomatic training whatever. All
will suppIant men who have had
years Of experience in their respec-
tive diplomatic posts and who, but
for politics, would remain there to
give real service to their country
Undoubtedly it is trying for a Sec
rotary Of State of high ideals to be
linked up to an administration whose
chief conception of diplomacy is to
turn the rascals out"
