Important to All Women
Readers of This Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
diticn, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irri-
table and maybe respondent; it makes
any one 80.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health
to the kidneys, proved to be just the
remedy needed to overcome such condi-
tions.
Many send for sample bottle to see
what Swamp Root, the great kidney, liver
and bladder medicine, will do for them. By
enclosing ten cents to DR.. Kilmer & Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y, you may receive sam
pie size bottle by parcel post. You can
purchase medium and large size bottles at
all drug res.-Advertisement.

independence Not Restored.

For a brief period after the armis-
tice the Armenians dreamed OF re-
stored independence in their old home
land. But the patriotic fervor which
this dream aroused only served to
draw down on their heads increased
persecution from the Turks when the
scheme fell through. Hundreds or
thousands of refugees fled from Turk
ish Armenia to Russian Armenia and
augmented there famine conditions
which, in turn, took their toll Of many
thousands. 1t was under these condi-
tons that American relief measures
probably saved the lives of myriads.
What was recognized as Russian Ar
menia before the World war, the re-
gion which served as the refuge of Ar
menians, has been markedly lessened
in extent by postwar treaty between
the Turkish nationalist and soviet
Russia. By this agreement, known as
the Treaty of Kars, Turkey has had re-
stored to her most of the areas con-
quered by imperial Russia in 1878. The

dahan and Kars are ceded Only the
Erivan district, about $4,000 square
miles in extent, is retained under Rus
sian control. In this territory live l.
100000 of the probably 100000 Ar
menians. The district Is organized as
the Armenian soviet republic and,
with the adjoining republics of Geor-
gia and Azerbaijan, makes up the
Transcaucasian Socialist Federated
Soviet republic, one Of the ASSOCIATED
republics" Of soviet Russia.
The vague region of Armenia. like
the spirit of its people, centers around
a noble mountain known to all the
world: Ararat, q thousand feet higher
than Mont Blanc. The tradition of
Noah is a circumstantial story to the
Armenians. They will show one the
very spot where the ark grounded and
they assert that this most important
debarkation point Is still guarded by
genii with flaming swords. To the
southeast of Ararat lies the town OF
Nakhichevan. meaning first dwelling"

! neighbOrS: the Babyl0n1ans, the Medes
and Persians, the Seleucidae, the Ro-
mans. From shortly after the begin
ming of the Christian era until 632,
when the country fell to the Bryan
tines, was Armenias age Of lndepend7
| ence.
The apex of power and culture was
reached during the latter part of that
period Then, as ViscOunt Bryce put
it, with tragic suddenness "the devel1
opment of the race was arrested just
when their capacities were beginning
to bear fruit"
Since that time the Armenians have
really never had a chance. In 636
they were conquered by the Arabs and
ruled by governors appointed by the
caliphs. They became part of the EN-
pire of the Seljuk Turks until 1t split
up in 1857 They were raided and har-
assed by the Asiatic nomads bound
westward, finally by the devastating
Timur-the-Lame. Their nobility had
fled to Bysantium with the coming OF
the Arabs. After Timur many Of the
common people migrated to Cilicia. In
the Sixteenth century the Osman1
Turks and the Persians shared the
dominance of old Armenia. Then in
1928 the Russians pushed south to take
a hand in the division of the old Ar
menians territory. In 1878 Russia made
her farthest southwark advance, con-
ouering the Turkish-Armenian San
iaks of Batum, Arabian and Kars.
Since then the Armenians have lived
with varying fortunes under the three
Jurisdictions, those of Turkey, Persia
and Russia.
Much of the bloody suffering that
has befallen the Armenians of Turkey
during the past half century Is as
cribed indirectly to Russia. The Ar
menians under Turkish rule had been
and oppressed for a long
time. Russian assumption of their
championship, and her demands for re-
forms incensed the Turks; and after
the unprincipled Abdul Hamid Ii be-
came sultan and realized that Russia
was being checkmated by the "conceit
of Europe" all restraint was removed
and wholesale massacres took place.
Probably a million or more Armenians
