Proven Swamp-Root Aids Weak Kidneys The symptoms of kidney and bladder troubles are often very dis tressing and leave the system in a run-down condition. The kidneys seem to suffer most, as almost every victim complains of lame back and urinary troubles which should not be neglected, as these danger signals often lead to more dangerous kidney troubles. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root which, so many people say, soon heals and strengthens the kidneys, is a splen did kidney, liver and bladder medi cine, and, being a herbal compound, has a gentle healing effect on the kidneys, which is almost immediate ly --noticed in most cases by those who use it. A trial will convince anyone who may be in need of it. Better get a bottle from your nearest drug store, ind start treatment at once. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten certs to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention the Omaha Daily Bee. Adv. Met When Writfflg to Our Advertisers, Mention Seeing It in The Bee British Secretary of War Gives Reason for Entrance and Maintenance of Troops in Troubled Land. London. Dec. 19. In reply to letter received from a correspon dent. Viscount Milncr. the secretary lor war, gives the reasons why ltrit iMi troops were scut to Russia. The cabinet member goes over the situa tion created by the success of the botsheviki in gaining control of Rus--iau affairs and points out how their acts were adversely altccting the cause of the allies in the west and otherwise hampering the winning of the war by the allied nations. "You ask me," says Viscount Mil ncr in his letter, "what right we ever had to send British troops to Kits Ma to meddle with the internal al fairs of that country and how long we mean to keep tlTciu there now that the war is over. Bolsheviki Aided Enemey. "The question itself Allows that mi misapprehend the facts of the cae as well as the inoties of the government. The reason why allied not merely British, forces indeed, the British are only a small propor tion ot the total allied troops were sent to Russia is that the bol sheviki, whatever their ultimate ob ject, were, in fact, assisting our enemies in every possible way. Jt was owing to their action that hun dreds of thousands of German troops were let loose to hurl them selves against our men on the west cm front. It was owing to their be trayal that Koumania with all Us rich resources in grain and oil fell into the hands of the Germans. "It was thev who handed over the Clack sea fleet to the Germans, and who treacherously attacked the I 'echo-Slovaks w hen the latter onU desired to get out of Russia in or der to tight for the freedom of their own country in Kurope. The allies, everyone of them, were most anx ious to avoid interference in Russia, but it was an obligation of honor to sar the Gzecho-Slovaks and H was military necessity of the most urgent kind to prevent those vast portions of Russia which were struggling to escape the tyranny of the bolsheviki from being overrun by them and so throw open as a source of supply to the enemy. No Desire to Stay. "You mav be quite sure that the last thing the government desires is to leave any British soldiers " Russia a dav longer than is neces sary to discharge the moral obli gations we have incurred, and that. 1 believe, is the guiding principle of all the allies. Nor do 1 myself think that the time when we can withdraw without disastrous conse quences is necessarily distant. But this is a case in which more haste may be less speed. "If the allies were all to scramble out of Russia at once the result would almost certainly be that the barbarism which at present reigns in a part only of that country would spread over the whole of it, includ ing the vast regions of northern and central Asia which were included in the dominion of the czar. '1 he ultimate consequences of such a dis aster cannot -be foreseen, but they would assuredly involve a far great er strain on the resources of the British empire than our present commitments." Bishop Maglione Recovers Treasures Stolen by Huns Paris, Dec. 19. (Havas.) Bishop Maglione of Berne has received from Cardinal Hartmann, arch bishop of Cologne, 20 cases contain ing religious ornaments which were taken from the diocese of Rheims by German soldiers.

In. LEAGUE DID NOT ASK PRESIDENT TO ACCEPT PLAN Officials Say It Would Have Have Been Unwise for Head of Nation to Commit Himself in Advance. 1890 New York, Dec. 19. In explana tion of President Wilson's denial in Paris that he had ever directly or indirectly indorsed a plan tonnti hited by the League to Knforec Peace, the following official state- i mctit was issued here todav by the national headquarters of that or ganization: "President Wilson's statement ca bled from Paris that he never in dorsed 'the particular plan' of the League to Enforce Peace needs no corroboration. The league never sought any such indorsement. "It must be plain to everyone that it would have been unwise and un diplomatic for the head of the nation to commit himself to any specilic plan for an international .settlement before the peace conference meets. The League to Enforce Peace would have been the last to urge the presi dent to hamper our peace delegates by premature indorsement of our platform or any other."
