FORCES LINE UP FOR FRAY
IN EARLY MORNING HOURS

Mexico City, (via GaIveston), Feb.
1S-Daybreak found the fighting forces
Felix Diaz facing each other at closer
range than at any time during the
present revolution. All night long
Madero's men were working, moving
are being used to denoltsh buildings
and snuff out human lives. These
guns, which are intended to be used
at a distance of two miles, today, will
be trained upon targets less than 500
feet distant. The bloodiest fighting
of the present revolt was expected to-
day.
Since O'Clock, last night, the city
has been quiet. Most sections were
in total darkness, wires feeding resi-
dent and street lights having been cut
by shells during yesterdays fighting
Troopers sleeping in the streets
were awakened by bugles in all parts
of the two armies quarters, this
morning, and both sides began i'm
mediate pFepaI ations for resuIning the
battle. Little. work had been done
to remove the dead from the streets
where the bodies lay in horrible dis

For the deatht struggle, today,
Madero claimed to have a force of
900 men. General, Diaz said he had
5000 capable soldiers and would have
$500 more when the expected force of
Zapaeistass reached the city. The ad-
vantage was with Ddaz in having the
best equipment of cannon, machine
guns and rifles and thus far his
marksnlen have proved superior.
In the two days fighting ending last
night it is estimated by officials that
300 have been killed and 1,500 wound
ed
Ambassador Wilson was expected to
make a report to his government, to-
day which would contain vigorous
and scathing remarks concerning the
killing yesterday, of Mrs H. w
Holmes and Mrs Percy F'riffths, two

Monte Carlo Robbers.

'They are greater robbers at Monte
Carlo" said a traveller, speaking of
high charges, than anywhere in the
world. The German tourist Is sneered
at I'm Monte Carlo because when he en-
tiers a barber shop he always asks
what the charge is to be before he sits
down in the chair. But what is a man
to do In barber shops, where it is no
uncommon thing to be charged 50 on
50 for the simplest operation?
~And it's the same thing in the no
tells. know man who took suit
at Monte Carlo hotel without asking
the price of anything-and in the res
taurants of such hotels It's a common
thing to find no prices even on the
menus. Well, when this man came to
pay his bill it was enormous. But he
paid it. Then he said:

THE CNSIGHTLY BILLBOARD.

Billboard and other advertising oi
like nature is getting TO be such q
commonplace nuisance that We hardly
notice il any more. Probably all We
need is to see once more a stretch
of road that is free from the gaudy
advertisements of DIR. Prices Pink
Pills for Pale People. Pickax Plug To-
bacco, Saccharine Feeds. Jinks the
Jeweler or l. HoIler, the Painless Den
tist.
The billboards are dangerous to any
community for two reasons. Usually
they are constructed of fiimsy mater
ial and are apt to fall down in high
wind Another reason is that they af-
ford a hiding place for robbers and
other criminals.
The billboards are insanitary. Dirt
and refuse of all kinds accumulate and
decay behind them. 1t is impossible
to keep clean the premises on which
a billboard is situated.
In the Connecticut and Housatonic
Valleys of New England the billboards
have been barred. The pill man, the
hair-dye man. the corset man and all
the others have been given cordial
but none the less firm invitation to
leave. Motorists say that going
through these valleys is like travelling
in a foreign land The solution of the |
problem might be brought about by
showing some of our reformers
through these valleys and allowing |
them to educate others.
The billboard is big nuisance and
sooner or later il must go. Here's
hoping it goes sooner"

The joys OF Living.

THE Joys of Living" is a book of the
inspirational type by Orison SWEET
Marden. He emphasizes living today
in contrast with living tomorrow. Too
few people are actually living in the
here and now to have very happy
world. If people would come here
from another planet they would think
that We are waiting for something to
take us to land beyond
There is a world of truth in Doctor
Marden's book and it will accomplish
much good. Those who read it can
not fail to be uplifted and made happi-
er by the excellent thought that is
given out. Every page has something
new to offer in how to become happy.
Often we look too far ahead for the
pleasures of life. Doctor Marden
points out that real happiness is to
be found in everyday living if we only
educate our minds to think so and try
to make the best of life. CThomas Y.
