Washington Is Hopeful.

Washington. Absolute optimism prevails here as to the Mexican situa- ton, which is regarded as justifying confident expectations of an early realization of a legal solution of the problems which have vexed that troubled country in varying degrees of suffering and tragedy since the overthrow of the Diaz regime. This optimistic belief so manifest in of ficial circles, was based on an under standing that the Mexican elections called for October 26 will be pos poned and a legal election held later under more favorable circumstances than obtain at this time

DIZZY, READACHY,
 SICK, 'CASCARETS"
Gently cleanse your liver and sluggish bowels while
 you sleep.
Get a 10-cent box.

Sick headache, bilousness, dizzi- ness, coated tongue, foul taste and foul breath-always trace them to torpid liver; delayed, fermenting food in the bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
 Poisonous matter clogged in the in testines, instead of being cast out of the system is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes con gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick ening headache.
 Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the sour, undigested food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels.
 A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning. They work while you sleep-a 10-cent box from your druggist means your head clear, stomach sweet and your liver and bowels regular for months. Adv.

HENPECK HAS LITTLE JOKE

 Right to Laugh.

Henpeck was in state of delight all the evening; it was so evident that at last we asked whether some one had left him a fortune.
 No, but 1t is the joke of the age. l have been laughing all day. This morning when l went into the dining room at breakfast time there was no meal visible l went into my wife's room and there she was still asleep. So unlike Bertha, you know. l called her: Say, Bertha, it's eight o'clock; want my breakfast. Not a movement. l shouted; shook the bed; brought in the frying pan and beat the reveille upon it All to no pur pose. What was to do? Time was passing and l didn't feel inclined to go to work hungry. Get my own breakfast? Not on your life. What am l married for? Then a bright thought struck me. l took off my shoes, crept as quietly as l could along the passage; a board creaked; in a moment Bertha was awake.

FEMALE MAKES THE TROUBLE
Certainly in the Case of the Mosquito They Are More Deadly Than
 the Male"

The attention of many of our citi- zens who hitherto have taken little in- terest in chronological investigation, has been attracted 70 what they be- lieve is new variety of mosquito, a mosquito which in the course of evo- lution has lost it's bark, but not it's bite; that comes upon one unawares, without a musical accompaniment. Whatever may be said against the ln- sect 1t should be set down to it's cred It that it takes its nourishment without music, declining to give that addition al smart to ones misery. This active, but diminutive specimen of the ge- nus CuleX, now at the close of sum mer, is beginning a work that will continue until the first sharp frost As a matter of fact these mosquitoes that have had no difficulty in pushing their way through the smallest mesh ed wire screens are all females, and for that reason we hear no song. The males are larger, perhaps cannot make their way through the screens, and re- main outside, where they sing solos or join in numbers and give hallelu- jah choruses, and encourage the suf- fragette sisters at their work inside, The sisters have an unsuitable thirst for blood, while the mouth of the male mosquito Is not equipped for biting and he does not come into our houses. While the sisters are inside drinking blood the more temperate fathers of the family are outside slipping rain water.

POWERS READY

LATEST RUMOR
Austria.Hungary Said to Have
Cautioned Greece and
Seryia
BULGARIA NOT TO BE
TOO MUCH DESPOHED,
Russia May Occupy Armenia
To Head Off Further Advance
by the Turks

LONDON, July 26.--With the
strained Balkan situation still upper
most In the minds Of the diplomats,
two reports were current here today,
neither of which boasted official in
formation.
A dispatch from Vienna said that
Austrta-Hungary has made strong
representation TO both Grece and
Servia, demanding that hostilities
cease. Austria-Hungary told the al
lies that she would not consent to
Bulgaria being too much despoiled
and Inundated. II was also hinted,
said that report, that Austria Hungary
told the allies tnat Roumanian
army, acting at the behest of the dual
monarchy, would oppose Greece and
Servia If they attempted to reach
Sofia.
The other rumor was that the pow
ers would authorize Russia TO occupy
Armenia, as means OF compelling
the Turks TO withdraw east of the
Enos-Midia line, which is the new
Turkish frontier fixed by the treaty
of London.

AT a series of conferences. which

tails OF the agreement with the eX-
ception OF few minor matters were
arranged. It was declared that the
submission of grievances Is no longer
the bone OF contention. but that the
only big point to be settled is the
date upon which the new wage scale

II is known that the employees want
