Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root 10
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview on the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
20 many applicants for insurance are re-
iected is because kidney trouble is 90
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. 1t is on sale
1t all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DR..

Tiger hunting is now prohibited In
Sumatra. Lest our national pride

this measure has nothing to do with

seeing the fauna of the big island de-
stroyed by European ex-premiers on
their travels.
No, the truth is more prosaic. Truth

In Sumatra the tigers are protected
because they devour the wild boars,
which are great despoilers Of the, plan

Describing a visit paid last year
to the battlefelds of France, Faith
Hunter Dodge wrote as follows in the
New York Tribune:
Here's flowers for you," wrote
Shakespeare.
Here's flowers for you," repeat
Americans and French, lavish in their
giving for Our Boys Memorial day.
Here's flowers for you" echo the
sun-kissed hills and valleys of France,
never more prodigal of blossoms. And
every American soldiers grave in
France is heaped high-with wreatAs
and flowers on Memorial day. Daffo-
dis in wild profusion, blue iris, red
peoples and peonies, understanding
white syringas and pale primrose find
their places among the numberless
wreatils of immortelles.
Flowers Everywhere.
From slimiest shell holes and poi
sonous trenches myriad violets are
springing; they seem to have sought
each sacred spot where a soldier
fell. Down in deserted dugouts we
pick up bits of shrapnel and under
meath find violes and anemones !!
They thrust theft petals through the
wreckage Of crushed and crumbling
stones and plaster of ruined houses !;
they hug the twisted rails of aban-
doned Zeppelin-torn railroad tracks /;
they wind their slight stems about
f'rbed wire and peek through the
fallen, tattered, torn remnants of
camoufiage The Sobs which rise un-
hidden in the throat of every visitor
to this holy ground are stified at the
sight of them; for they bring an in
dlsputable air of beauty, purity. peace
hope and happiness to this desolate,
devastated, striker land.
Recently I went back to the battle
fields of Verdun, st. Mihiel, the Ar
come, Belleau Woods and scissors.
there l found ruin, desolation, destruc-
ton indescribable-and ashes.
But the pussy willows were in bud
beside the road, and percentage thrust
their snowy petals through broken
stone and rusted iron. Out in the
American cemetery at Ploisy every
grave had Its own fresh, dew-moist-
ened roses: on the graves at Juvigny
were hyacinths and lilies; In Belleau
woods buttercups paved the ground
with gold and In the Argonne violets
and anemones blossomed unafraid.

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
FOR THE LARGER PEACE.
(From the Cincinnati Enquirer.)

(Fr0m the CINCINNATI enquirer
President Harding seems definitely to have
taken primary important steps which may lead to
early serious consideration by the representatives
which may be brought about that larger peace
so earnestly desired by every friend Of humanity.
Long ago. before his election, Mr.. Harding
plainly stated his position. He was for concert
of nations. Replying to the criticism that he should
be specific, he said: zone cannot be specific
with any of certainty. No one can foresee the
exact conditions by which our country will be
confronted seven months hence"
The wisdom of this conservatism amply has
been confirmed. World opinion and conditions even
yet have not emerged from the kaleidoscope
stage.
But from what now is known, or reasonably to
be inferred from late Washington news, the pres-
dent is moving for the erection of new associa-
ton of nations whose effective function shall be
the preservation of peace throughout the world.
1t is believed that the president and secretary
of state In full agreement touching the desir-
ability Of developing the supreme council as an
actual authoritative entity In the formation Of a
new association of nations, and that the creation
OF an international court Of Justice is essential to
the permanent success of this policy.
The presidents views in this matter have been
consistently practical In the main content he has
stunned his office. That he moves toward the
realization of his slowly developing policy indi-
Gates that the powers will not be averse to the
formation Of a working international association
for conference with its recognized council and CO.

Joice over the perfection of such plan goes with
out saying. Mankind must realize the larger
peace or face the possibility of another recurrent
epochal collapse of civilization, ... a.. a, -..s.
