Doctor A. Hamilton, of Boston, Tells Results of Remarkable Trip
Through South American Republic Whose Vast Territory
Has Been Closed to Travelers.
Of lata Tmra our hnnwlcdic of for-
ign onuntrles has heon ijreatly In
reaked through tha descriptions that
tv been given by the nmny travelers
ho annually leave the United States
or a tour abroad, SlnKUluriy enoi.Ku.
ne of the countries on this continent
he republic of Colombia, on the north-
m ooaat of Bouth America lias, until
ow. remained a practically unknown
hapter In the Itinerary of tbe American
tourist. Historically, Colombia has been
Intimately connected with the Lulled
Lstatea through the controvoray over
the Panama canal, as well as through
Lhe growth of various mining and other
Interests. The primitive, conditions ex-
tln In Colombia, however, regarding
transportation have kept It an almost
Healed book to the American traveler.
fj'he famous explorer, I Jr. A. Hamilton
filce of Ttoston, has now made an ex
austlve study of the Colombian repub
lo, piercing Us hitherto Inaccessible
regions, discovering Its wealth or eth
nologic! and historical lore, ana me
Results of his exploration are here, given
Ko the readers of the Sunday limes or

When Pr. A. Hamilton Rice of Bos
on, the famrtUH explorer, cartogranner,
1 ethnologist, sailed for London on
'une 27, he carried with him an account
f his recent explorations of that wild
nd riiRRed count rv of Colombia, a re
Ion more lnaccessfblo than that visited
y Stanley; eo by this time the noyai
Seographlcal society, of which he Is a
nftiiher, Is In possession .of a report

It was In December, 1918, that Dr.
ice started on a trip which took him

arguments wo rnu'lii-d an agreement
whereby they should bo paid J-l'iO. This
agreement or contract Included 1,000
pounds of food, consisting chiefly of
dried beef, known us carnesecca. This

ela these natives will do any amount of
work. My outfit now consisted of four
men besides my servant, an Indian
woman for cook, and two canoes or
ubas, aa they are called In this country.
"We left a little place known as
Iraca and went down tho Aria re river
for a Journey lasting four days. The
Arlare rises In the plain of Fuslganlgti,
which la Just south of Mogota, and Is a
great tributary of the Ouavlarle. coming
in from the north. At tho end of the
four days' Journey we arrived at the
point where the Arlare empties Into the
uuavlarle. which up to this point is
known as tho Oiiaynbero. It was while
we were making our way down this
stream that we encountered a large
macarel, which wub making its wy
across the river. This Is one of the
most venomous and dreaded snakes In
Colombia. Tho reptile, which was
about eight feet in length, and more
than a foot In thickness, tried to board
the canoe, as they Invariably do under
similar circumstances As luck would
have It the guns and machetes w-re out
of reach In the stem of the leiat with
the provisions, and with a !,eai!y loaded
and ticklish canoe in the middle of a
river v.-It It an unusually swift current

favor. The natives bent ! off repeat
edly with their puddles, and after i.ti
effort 1 succeeded In rrii'-liiMi; a shot

the monster, I literally blew It to
pieces.

Contracted Disorders
The sei -bius results that may follow neg

exaggerated. Safety demands an absolutely
thorough cure In the least possible time. I
have treated more ciisen of contracted disor
ders than any other physician upon the Pa--ifio
Coast My curesare thorough and are
11 compllshed in less time than other forms
f treatment require in producing even doubt
ful results. I employ remedies of my own

Varicocele
Thers Is no neeesaity
for surKieal operations
In tho treatment of Var
icocele. This dlsas
yields completely to my
mild and painless meth
od, and results are far
better than were ever
attained by the harsh
and dangerous practice
of cutting. nut one
week is required, and
seldom Is it even neces
sary to detain the pa
tient from his business.
Stricture,
In the treatment of
stricture I havo again
triumphed over surgery.
I employ an original
method by which the
obetrueting tissue Is
completely dissolved,
and all Inflammation
and Irritation through
out the system expelled.
No pain, no cutting, no
dilating, and a sure cure
In every instance.
