THE MEXICAN EDITOR.
1t rs Very Easy For Him to Get Into
Serious Trouble.

1t 10 Very Easy For Him to Get Into
Serious Trouble.
The newspaper laws of Mexico are
very stringent. IL any person is men-
toned In newspaper article and feels
offended about it. he can easily send
the editor of the, paper and the writer
of the article to prison. The state
ments may have been far within the
limits OF truth and justice, but that
makes no difference. The editor in
communicate has a chance to think
about the law, and the aggrieved per-
son smiles pleasantly. After awhile
the law gets In its work, the case Is in
vestigated, and the editor Is punished,
fgraevensthe truth is libelous, and libel
is one Of the offenses most severely
condemned
According to the theory OF the Mexi-
can law, every persSn has right to go
about entirely free from annoyance by
other persons. II the person violates
the law. the newspaper has no right to
say 80. 1t can lay information before
the courts If 1t wants to. but 1t must
not say in its columns that It has done
30. Then the law will step In and take
charge Of the offender. but the repre-
Hentatives of the paper will not be al
lowed to attend the trial, and only the
bare result. after weeks of waiting.
can be told to the public.
II the offense charged against the ed
itor is regarded by the first magistrate
to whom the complaint ia made as be-
ing especially grave, the paper Is gen
orally suppressed. The complaint has
been received and passed upon. Then
q squad Of police descends upon the
printing Office. Sometimes all the EN-
ployees are arrested. sometimes only
the editor. Then the doors of the
building are closed, official seals are
placed upon them. and guard is sta
toned to see that no one tries to en-
ter. For three days the editor can do
nothing. The laws under which he Ia
arrested are modelled after those Of the
code Napoleon, and for three days he
is held incommunicado, while the au-
thorfties hunt up evidence Then he
ia given hearing. In the meantime
his paper has been suppressed. and In
many cases it never comes to life again,
even though the editor may eventually
clear himself of all blame-Pittsburg

Life Guards.

The Life Guards are two regiments
of cavalry forming part of the British
household troups. They are gallant
soldiers and every loyal British heart
is proud of them. Not only the Kings
household, but yours. ours, every
body's should have its life guards.
The need of them is especially great
when the greatest foes of life, diseases,
find allies in the very elements, as
colds, influenza, catarrh, the grip and
pneumonia do in the stormy month of
March. The best way that we know of
to guard against these diseases is to
strengthen the system with Hoods
Sarsaparilla-the greatest of oil life
guards. 1t removes the conditions in
which these diseases make their most
successful attack, gives vigor and tone
to all vital organs and functions, and
imparts genial warmth to the blood.
Remember the weaker the system the
greater the exposure to disease.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the system
strong.

The forming of musical society
in this city is now being discussed.
Prof. G. p. Hoffman, who was the able
conductor of the Orphean Musical So
ciety here, some years ago, and whose
removal from town was the principal
cause of that society's demise, is now
making this city his home, and it is
thought that it would be good thing
for the development of the vocal talent
of the place if society were formed
with Mr.. Hoffman as conductor. 1t
is to be hoped that the society may be
organized, as Lambertville needs such
an organization.

To get an idea of the tremendous
growth of the railroad business OF the
country, person has merely to study
carefully the latest annual report of
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
just issued.
Here is railroad company whose
gross earnings last year aggregated
sos, 628, S78.14. Operating expenses
were $133, 718, 386.25, and its net
earnings 1914, 91s, 491 80.
The net earnings were $40, 175, Ala 80
greater than the year before.
On its pay rolls is an army of
800, 900 employees, distributed nearly
half way across the continent.
The Pennsylvania Railroad en-
ployes now exceed the entire popula-
ton of New Jersey in 1910. That
year this State had 1913, 3O8 inhabi-
tants, against /, 1888, 500 in 1900.
The number of Pennsylvania Rail-
road employees is greater than the en-
tire population of Vermont, and is
$4,000 greater than the entire popula-
ton of Utah.
There are nine times more Penn
sylvania Railroad employees than
there are inhabitants in Nevada.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany not only pays this vast army
comfortable wages and operates its
lines according to the most approved
methods, but it also finds opportunity
to plan tunnels under the Hudson and
East rivers at cost of $40, 900, 900 or
more.-Jersey city Journal.

tomber fst.
The march King" and his famous
band will occupy the first part of the

nized as having made a tremendous
hit with Willow Grove audiences last

Herbert and his Pittsburg orchestra,

Philadelphia, although most favorably
known to New York music lovers.
The Kiltz Band, of Canada, will oc-
cupy short period next. This or
ganization is the official band of the
Canadian Government, and can con
sequently only leave that country
with the express permission of the
officials. This is also an organization
new TO Willow Grove habitues.
The American Band, Of Providence,
r. l., led by II. Clark, for many years
leading cornetist for Sousa, will come
next on the program as arranged.
The season will close with a series
of special concerts by the Royal Ma
rine Band Of Italy, which scored such
a success last season, partly through
the wondrous gyrations of their
leader.
The attractions, as set forth, are all
of the first class and have been Sc
lected with the view Of giving variety
to the programs that will be presented
during the summer at this great pleas
ure park. -Hatbor0 journal.

La Grippe Quickly Cured.

"In the winter of 1898 and 1899 I
was taken down with a severe attack
of what is called La Grippe" says F.
L. Hewett, prominent druggist of
Winfield, Ill. "The only medicine I
used was two bottles of Chamberlain g
Cough Remedy. 1t broke up the cold
and stopped the coughing like magic,
and I have never since been troubled
with Grippe" Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy can always be depended upon
to break up severe cold and ward of
any threatened attack of pneumonia.
It is pleasant to take, too, which
makes it the most desirable and one
Of the most popular preparations in
use for these ailments. For sale by

Danger of Colds and La Grippe.

la grippe is their resulting in pneu-
monia. II reasonable care is used,

Remedy taken, all danger will be

ands who have used this remedy for
these diseases, we have yet to learn Of

What does it profit woman if she
gain the whole world of knowledge
and lose her own health? Young wo-
men students, and school teachers,
eager, ambitious, and full of energy,
very often neglect their health in the
struggle to gain education. They eat
insufficient food, and at irregular
hours, they allow irregularity of the
womanly functions to be established,
and the result is that they become
chronic invalids with all their educa-
ton practically worthless. There is
plain road back to health for such as
these, marked by the feet of thousands.
1t is the use of DIR. Pierces Golden
