FIND LIKENESS
 OF AUGUSTUS
ArchacoIogist Discovers Splendid Statue of Roman Emperor
 at TiNoIi.
LIFEuKE STUDY BY ARTIST
Valuable Addition to Portraits of Ro- man Emperors and Is Only One Extant Done During En-
 perors Life.

Rome.-Tivol, that lovely little city perched above Rome. called Tibur by the ancient Romans, has just given to the archaeological world two new art treasures-an augusteum, or hall, and a splendid head of Emperor Au- gustus.
 Prof. Alessio Valle, one of the arch aeologists who have made Tivoii Il special study, long believed that Tivoli should reveal an ancient hall or importance, considering the four ishing state of the city in Roman days. He began to dig near newly discovered weights and measures Of- flee, also dating from the Roman em- pire, thinking that the public weights and measures must surely be near some important hall.
 He was not mistaken. He has ment of white and green marble which looks as if 1t were put down this morning, so fresh is it, and the statue of Augustus, broken but with the head intact as the picture shows, with the lifelike lines cut out of the marble by some unknown sculptor of evident genius.

Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never
 Suspect It
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 is soon realized. It stands the highest for it's 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 SO many applicants for insurance are re- jected is because kidney trouble is so 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. It is on sale at 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 Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y.. for : sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paper.-Adv.

Amazing Story of German Es- pionage During the War
 Is Disclosed.
DESERTER MAKES CONFESSION
Former Officer Tells of Being Sent From Germany With Other Cadets to Enlist in the United
 States Army.

New York.-An amazing story Of German espionage during the war was disclosed when John Willet, for mer captain in the Forty-eighth uni- ted States infantry, coniessd he was really Hans Willers, a cadet in the German army until 1914. when he was sent to this country with 300 other cadets to joint the American army and become United States officers.
 Willet admitted he had absconded with S6,0O0 of his company's funds at Camp Sevier on November 2S. IBIS. n few weeks after the armistice, and de serted.
 It was this offense and not any sus- picion of his spy role which resulted in his arrest here when Hugh J. Han nigan, formerly first lieutenant in the Forty eighth, recognized the de serter on the street and hailed a po- liceman.
 Hints at Treason in Washington.
 You would be surprised how many nigh German officials held jobs in Washington during the war. Willet told Detective Sergeant O'Leary. The prisoner made this statement after he had narrated how he came here and what he would have done had his regi- ment been sent to France.
 "l would have led my men to slaughter. and could have been use ful to my own country in many other ways" Willet declared. according to

 As to his pedigree, he said he was born in Germany and educated there.

 When the World war began in 1914 l was selected to join band of cadets who were to come to the United States with orders to join the American army.

 In Chicago about a year ago he mar ried an American girl named Craw- ford. 1t is said.
 Willet recently opened mail order business in this city under the name of Crawford.
