TO SAVE La BAHIA MISSION.
Movement on Foot For State TO Buy
Historic Texas Building.

Movement on Foot For State TO Buy
Historic Texas Building.
The ancient La Bahia mission build
ing, situated near Goliad, Tex, is to-
be rehabilitated and preserved il the
movement succeeds which has been
started among patriotic Texans with
those purposes in view, says the Kan
sas City Star. In this ancient build
ing on May Z, 1886, 800 men under
command Of Colonel Fannin were
massacred by large force of Mexi-
cans at Santa Annals orders. The
walls of the church were stained with
the blood of the men who were striy
ing to gain their country's liberty from
Mexico. The news of this massacre
aroused the Texans and gave them the
frenzied courage which soon after
ward resulted in the Overwhelming de
feat of Santa Annals army and cap
ture of the Mexican commander, whose
life was saved only through the timely
interference of General Sam Houston.
In all the years that have passed
since that massacre, during the period
that Texas was a republic and since
she became state the historic edi-
fee has remained uncareG for except
for such little attention as was shown
it by the few poor but devout Mexican
worshipers who gathered at its altar
on Sundays and the various saints
days.
The movement now on foot seeks to
have the state purchase La Bahia mis-
sion from those who claim title to it
and to permit it to be cared for by the
Daughters of the Texas Republic, as
the historic Alamo building now is
Owing to its remote location compare
lively few people visit La Bahia mis-
sion Those who enter the building
first must pay fee to the Mexican
who is in charge of the place. The in
terror of the mission edifce is much
the same as it was when the massacre
left the walls despatched with blood
more than seventy years ago.

Women Who Wear Well,

1T is astonishing how great a change
. few years of married life often make
III the appearance and disposition of
many women. The freshness, the
charm, the brilliance vanish like the
bloom from flower which is rudely
handled The matron is only a dim
shadow, faint echo of the charming
maiden. Few young women appreciate
the shock of the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
Siage and motherhood, not understand
ing that this secret drain is robbing the
cheek of it's freshness and the form of
its fairness.
As surely as the general health suffers
when there is arrangement of the health
of the delicate womanly organs, so surely
when these organs are established in
health the face and form at once witness
to the fact in renewed comeliness.
More than million women have found
health and happiness in the use of DIR.
