huge rock that rises up out Of the plain, and It
has been the site of the residences of the rul-
ers of Mexico ever since the days OF the Az
tees.
The Mexico City of former times was sur
rounded by Lake Tezcoco, the waters of which
were alkaline and unfit for USE Therefore the
inhabitants were compelled to obtain their
water from springs, and it was carried to the
city by means of aQueducts One of'these ran
along the road to Chapultepec and terminated
at the fountain of Ell Salto del Agu. near Be-
lem prison.
Portions of this famous old waterway are
still standing and may be seen from the street
cars. 1t was constructed of bricks laid in CO.
ment and plastered with tie same material. 1t
was very substantial and would have stood
thousand years as we'll as one.
The region of this ancient waterway is one
of the most picturesque uarts Of the city. Out
on the Chapultepec highway, which was built
by Macmillan, scores of wood carriers may be
seen with enormous lads of frewood, that
they have cut in the Hills, fastened on their
backs They can carry almost as much as
horse, and they peddle this fuel in the city,
where it is used for cooking. Quite frequently
burros are seen loaded down. carrying a bur-
den larger than thems elves. | have also seen
this in towns in New Mexico and Arizona.
One of the most picturesque sights to be
seen in Mexico are the queer-lookng OK carts.

History says that about 1926 band of Aztecs
was travelling through the Valley of Mexico
For nearly six hundred years these people had
been wanderers the face of the earth, and
during all those centuries they had been
searching for the promised land--a place to
build new home. Their priests had taught
them that when they saw a royal eagle with a
snake in its talons alight upon a prickly pear
cactus. that would be sign that there was the
place for them to build city. And as they
were wandering through this valley they be-
held 4 royal eagle. perched upon a cactus
holding serpent. This is the origin OF the
Mexican national emblem of today Accord
ingly they stopped, for they firmly believed
that their long journey ended. On an
island in Lake Texcoco they built a city which
they called TenOchtitlan, and this is where the
City OF Mexico now stands.
Considering the centuries that they had been
homeless, the reign of the Aztecs over this fair
land was short. for IN 1919 Cortez landed in
Mexico. Then began one Of the most remark
able campaigns in all history. The great con-
Aztec capital fighting battle after battle. and
defeating hordes of savages. On November
8. 1919 Cortez entered Tenochtitlan with his
little army and was welcomed by Montezuma

gold and other valuabes which they were COM
PEELED to leave for on July I. 1920, they were
driven from the city. However. in August.
1921. they returned, besieged the place, and on
the 18th they were again victorious; and tho
reign of the Aztecs came to an end forever.
But the great treasures that had been left be.
hind by the conquerors bad disappeared.
Circumference. the last Of the Montezumas, was

EASY TO GET RID
OF DANDRUFF

Dandruff means that down near
the roots of your hair there is vast
army of little invisible germs or mi
CrObes.
And this army never sleeps; it
wages a war of destruction night and
day. IT destroys the nourishment
that the hair must have in order to
grow vigorously and abundantly.
Partisan Sage now sold all over
America will destroy these germs and
at the same time furnish the hair
roots with just the proper nourish-
ment to make hair grow lustrous and
IuXuriant.
Partisan Sage is guaranteed by
the Harper house pharmacy to ban
ish dandruff, stop falling hair and
itching scalp or money back. 1t is a
delightful hair dressing that wins in
slant favor with refined women. Sold
for only 80 cents a large bottle by
the Harper house pharmacy and
druggists everywhere. Girl with
auburn hair on every carton and bot
tie.

EFFECTIVE YESTERDAY
No Labor on Saturday, There Being
But Five Workdays Instead of
Customary Six.

In accordance with an order which
became effective yesterday, the Silvis
shops OF the Rock Island road will re-
sumo their ntnehour day schedule, but
there will be no work on Saturday.
Authorities at the shops stated this
morning that the order is permanent
one and that 1t will be followed dur
ing the coming winter.
Two weeks ago an order went into
effect which cut the day to eight hours
and permitted no work on Saturday
This move proved unpopular with the
men, as It gave them only 20 hours Of
work a week and materially reduced
their wages. The new plan will result
in a 45-hour schedule each week.
Is RETRENCHMENT MOVE.
The cutting down of working hours
is a retrenchment move on the part of
the road evidently, for there is plenty
Of work at the shops to keep the men

RAINS WEAKENED SUPPORTS.
Many of those who received mi
nor hurts left the grounds before
seeking medical attention. The ac-
cident occurred at the start of the
first heat in the 2:07 pace. Without
previous warning the heavily crowd
ed seats came down with a crash,
some of the persons on the top tier
falling distance of 10 feet onto
those who occupied seats in the low
er rows.
superintendent Marshall said that
the excessive rains had undoubtedly
weakened the supports and caused
the seats to fall. After the accident
Marshall caused the rest of the
bleachers to be guarded to prevent
overcrowding
