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 is
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
tonlshing statement that one reason why
40 many applicants for insurance are re-
locted is because kidney trouble is so
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applca-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root 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 DIR. kilmer & Co., Bingham
ton, n. Y, for sample bottle. When
writing be sure and mention this paper.

Men Are Out of Luck.

The condition Of Russian men refu-
gees here is bad as there are few in
dustries or factories to provide work.
Recently the French government cut
off its food rations to several thou
sand men, though still feeding a GER
tain number of children, women and
old men.
1t is hard for them to get passports
to go to other countries. Serbia has
accepted some 10000, but her leniency
to refugees is finding its limit.
Prince Golitzy, who formerly held
immense estates near Kiev, and may
recover them, among hundreds Of 9TH
ers, is attempting to earn a living by
utilizing his knowledge of precious
stones Of which he Cnce had u large
collection.
Such men often lose their clothing
and baggage to rapaciOus landlords
who serve them in default of the pay
ment of room rent, but the Russian
aristocrats never lose their politeness
and courtesy in adversely.
They still kiss the hands Of the
women, after the manner of their
country. Often cheerful and Cour-
ageous in the face of poverty, they
share their last money with friends.

Crop Reports Indicate Difference
Few Showers Make in Human

BIG PART PLAYED BY NATURE
Takes About 2,26O Tons Of Water to the
Acre to Grow a Food Crop-Process
Of Evaporation Yields Chemicals
Valuable as Fertilizer.

Washington, d. C.-"Rain might be
looked upon as the oil which lubricates
the worlds economic machinery" says
a bulletin issued from the Washing
ton, ID. c., headquarters Of the Ma
tiOnal Geographic society in conneC-
tion with recent reports Of worldwide
drought damage to crops.

crop since 1S93,' continues the bulle-
tin, with spring wheat in poor con-
dition at home as we'll as i'm many Of
the other wheat countries of the world,
with other important crops below their
average, and with drought east as the
villain, or at least as an accomplice
i'm each case, the difference that few
showers make in humanity's scheme
of things is strongly emphasized.
Depends on Rainfall.
"While everybody realizes in a gen
eral way that the world depends on
rainfall and fertility for food, there
are very few, perhaps, who even ap-
proXimately appreciate how compara-
lively little the farmer actually does
in the great process of crop-growing
To plOw millions of acres furrOw by
furrOw, to spend millions Of dollars
on fertilizers, and to reap and gather
and thresh, is no mean task And yet
compared with the part that nature
plays in the process, mans work
seems a very slight labor. For in
stance, it takes about 20 inches of
rainfall to grow a food crop under our
general farming methods, which means
about 2,260 tons Of water to the acre.
That seems a preposterOus figure but
the dOubter can easily demonstrate
its correctness Suppose the Ameri-
can farmer had to haul the water his
ground must have to give him a good
crop, and that the distance and freight
rate were the same as the average
railroad haul and rate in the United
States. On that basis it would cost

But not only would his water bill

And Age Has Its Weddings.

Youth has It's folles, age its stupid
tiles" said a Russian general, no long
er young, when inviting a friend to his
wedding.
The difficulty OF locating these
American wives across the seas is not
one to stump the imaginative Russian
mind, which readily adapts itself to
the lighter branches of commerce, and
has succeeded here with cafes, beauty
parlOrs, manicure and tea shops, con-
cert halls and public grounds.
The first and only bathing pavilion
near here has been established at
Floria beach, on the Marmora sea, by
a group Of Georgian princesses,
through the loan of American Red

Russian men have followed suit. Many
of the older ones have married Greek
