Up-to-Date Smuggling by
WASHINGTON. Smuggling and rum -
and submarine Is looked for In the
commissioner of lnternnl revenue, and
preparations nro innde In advance to
defeat the twentieth century smug
glers: Tho attention of the treasury de
partment was particularly directed to
this new danger of employing modern
methods In smuggling by the acci
dental capturo of nn airplane that
came across the Canadian border Into
northern New York with several cases
cf contraband liquor. It wns entirely
owing to an nccldent, however, that
this ennturo was mnde. nnd thn ofll
clnls of tho government hrtvo no doubt thnl large quantities of contraband
liquor hnve reached this country already over the same air routo.
There Is reason to believe that some venturesome pioneers of this new
mode of smuggling through the air hnve already landed several thousands of
dollars' worth of semiprecious stones from the topaz mines In Mexico, some
where In the Interior of the United States.
At any rate, the menace to the natloual revenues has become so Immediate
that Secretary Glass has decided that he will ask congress for transfer of COO
airplanes and hydro-airplanes from the nrmy and navy to his department and
funds enough to create an effective nlr patrol.
Later on he will ask also for the transfer from tho navy of a largo fleet
of boats specially designed for chasing submarines, In order to protect tho
Bencoasts and estuaries from the danger of .smuggling by submarines.

Slept on Outpost Duty and Pardoned; Made Good
NB of the two American soldiers sentenced to death for sleeping on out
post duty in France and subsequently pardoned by President Wilson, was
killed in tho great Aisne offensive in
wounded and flnnlly honorably dis
charged. This was disclosed by an
exchange of correspondence between
Secretary Baker and President Wilson.
Private Forest D. Sebastian of El
Dorado, 111., twenty years old, was
killed In tho Aisne battle. Private
JoffN Cook of Lutla, Okla., aged nine
teen, was wounded, in tho same battle,
but recovered to again fight gnllantly
in tho Argonno offensive, where ho re
ceived ills second wound.
In writing the president of the
gallant conduct of tho boys after tho president had pardoned them, Secretary
Baker said:
"You will recall that early in 1018 four death sentences were presented
to you from France; two for disobedience of orders you remitted to terms of
Imprisonment, and two young boys, Scbastlnn and Cook, who were convicted
of sleeping cn outpost duty, you fully pardoned.
"It will interest you to know that upon restoration to duty both mnde
good soldiers. Sebastian died in battle in the Aisno offensive in July, 1918.
Cook was wounded in that battle and restored to health in' time to light In
tho Meuse-Argonne battle, when ho again fought gallanUy nnd wns for tho
second time wounded. He hns been now restored to health through medical
attention and hns been honorably discharged from the service." '

weight to tho saying.

TEST ROAD MATERIALS FREE
Machinery for New Laboratory In
stalled at Colorado Agricultural
College.
(By O. V. ADAMS, Colorado AprriculturaJ
College, Fort Collins, Colo.)
Tho experiment station of the Col
orado Agricultural college at Fort Col
lins hns Just completed tho Installa
tion of tho machinery for a new labor
atory for tho testing of road materials
and Is now fully equipped to make all
the standard mechanical tests on rock,
broken stone, slag, gravel, sand nnrl
top soil.
Tho laboratory has been Installed
for tho purpose of aiding the peoplo
of tho state in their rond-buildlng
problems. No charge Is mnde for tho
testing of any matcrlnl; the samplo
must, however, bo of sulllclent size to
enable complete investigations to bo
made.
The first systematic attempts to dc
tennlno tho value of rock for road
building purposes by means of labora
tory tests were made In France In 1878,
Stretch of Improved Road Between
Cripple Creek and Canon City, Colo.
and the excellence of the French ronds
can no donbt be partly attributed to
.the selection of the best available ma
terlals for their construction.
In 1893, a road material testing lab
oratory was established by the Massa
chusetts highway commission, with the
Inte Logan W. Page in charge. This
work has developed until today there
are many such laboratories through
out the United States, and road en
gineers arc more and more coming to
reallzo tho value of such tests and to
specify thnt matcrlnl used in road con
struction shall measure up to certain
established standard requirements.
INJURY DONE TO GOOD JWADS
Autos and Motor Trucks Do More
Harm Than Steel-Tlred Vehlcleo
on Account of Speed.
Thcro is more damage done to the
roads now by autos and motor truckf
than steel-tired vehicles over did, foi
the reason of greater speed of motoi
vehicles and their drivers have tlu
same fool tracking habit tho hors
drivers always had. Driving in tin
same tracks never dnmuged steel tires,
but it is the destruction of the roads
and rubber tires. The motor vehicle

on nccount of grentcr speed. Tho rea

rubber tires, Is a sharp rock will be
set in tho side of the track; with the
sharpest corner out to nip n piece out
of every tire, and sharp rocks cannot
dodge or bounce out of the bottom ol
the track, but cut holes In tho tires nnd
break the fabric, causing tho so-cnlled
stone bruises, and rim cuts, even on
properly inflntcd tires.

French Engineers Find That Simple,

It lias been tho experience of the
French engineers In building roads dun

being true, it would seem advisable in

to cover the surfaco with some crushed

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 ie 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
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of tho 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
largo majority of those whose applica
tions arc 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 fc Co., Binghamton, N. Y for a
sample bottle. When writing be aure and
mention this paper. Adv.
