TWO DIRECT Pixies
URGED FOR STATE
One Highway for Coast, One
for Interior, Angeleno
Mans Plan

SACRAMENTO. Aug. 3.-That the
construction OF California's SIS 900. 900
state highway system on the principle
of two direct trunk lines north and
south, one to serve the coast cities and
one in the interior, will be OF immense
economic value to the farmer and bust
ness men in transportation cost. is
the assertion Of T. E. Darlington of Los
Angeles. member OF the California
highway commission.
The development OF the automobile
as a means of quick. inexpensive and
satisfactory interchange of farm prod
ucts and merchandise between county
and city, assures keen competition for
the future IL the roads are laid out in
the most direct practicable routes.
Darlington believes
Several automobile trucking COM
panies are planning TO establish motor
vehicle trains between Los Angeles and
Fresno when the state highway is
built" said Darlington.
That the auto truck can success
fully compete with steam and electric
roads In hauling freight has been
proved in European countries. The
freight transportation marvel of the
next few years.
IF the two main trunk lines of
California's Highway system are
routed as direct as possible from one
end Of the state to the other and the
counties spend their money as they
should for laterals, the state Will have
in a short time the most perfect sys-
TEN OF roads in the world.
The saving TO farmers In trans
porting their products to distribution
eenters by automobile over a system
of direct highways. and the similar
saving to merchants in delivering
their product, can not be appreciated
now in the early development OF this
means of intercounty and even inter
state transportation

ASK REPEAL Of

Revolution Otherwise Will
Be Protracted, Declare
Constitutionalists

WASHINGTON. Aug. 3.-Oficiai
Washingtonread with keen interest to-
day the declaration of AureIiano Ur-
rutia. the Mexican minister Of the in
terror, that Provisional President
Huerta would not resign and moreover
would brook no interference on the
part of foreigners in his administra-
tion.
While no plan that the American
government has had under serious con-
sideration involved any direct inter-
ference in Mexican affairs. the admit
ted attitude of the administration here
Is one of una1terable opposition to the
recognition of the Huerta regime
Without the recognition OF the United
States, leading Mexicans hitherto have
claimed Mexico would not be able to
extricate itself from it's financial diff
culties- On this account it had been
believed here that pressure would be
brought to bear to persuade Provi-
sional President Huerta to resign The
announcement that he has determined
not to do so has beclouded the situa-
tion somewhat and has spurred the
constitutionalists to further activity to
obtain the repeal OF the embargo on
arms They claim that If they do not
get arms the revolution Will be
protracted struggle With munitions OF
war, they say, they can bring quickly
matters to crisis
General Eduardo Hay. who has been
selected by the constitutionaIists as
their spokesman, now is in Washing

ALL WANT TO NAME THE BABY
Advice Heaped In Profuslon on Keep
ere Of Big cIty's Geological
Gardens.

The arrival Of a baby animal or
bird of any kind from a hippopotamus
to canary at either OF the city ZOOS
gives people all over town chance
to spread themselves in the matter of
names" said a New York park keeper.
Everybody wants the honor Of
naming the baby. Letters come from
all parts of the city, and from the sur.
rounding country suggesting names
that the writers think appropriate.
Patriotism runs high among our cor
respondents. If they had their way
half the animals in the park would be
called Abe Lincoln, and a large part
of the other half Teddy Roosevelt
Regardless OF the sex Of the youngster,
these two presidential appellations are
urged upon us.
Classical and Scriptural names also
have their advocates. Hercules and
Plato in particular are proposed.
"Of all the ladies OF antiquity Niobe
seems to have first call. Once in a
while writer of sentimental turn
of mind suggests a more modern ro-
mantle name. Out Of consideration for
the animal fancy names are taboo to
start with. To call a beast of the
jungle Violet or Queenie is enough to
shame the most docile of infants into
a Teversion to type"

WATERY BLISTERS ON FACE

Smithville, Ind.-"Six months ago
our baby girl, one year old, had few
red pimples come on her face which
gradually spread causing her face to
become very irritated and a fiery red
color. The pimples on the child's face
were at first small watery blisters, just
a small blotch on the skin. She kept
scratching at this until in a few days
her whole cheeks were fiery red color
and instead of the little blisters the
skin was cracked and scaly looking
and seemed to itch and burn. very
much.
we used a number of remedies
which seemed to give relief for a short
time then leave her face worse than
ever. Finally we got a cake OF Cuti-
cura Soap and a box of Cuticura ONT
ment. l washed the child's face with
very warm water and Cuticura Soap,
then applied the Cuticura Ointment
very lightly. After doing this about
three times a day the itching and
burning seemed entirely gone in two
days time. Inside of two weeks time
her face seemed well. That was eight
months ago and there has been no re-
turn of the trouble" (Signed) Mrs
A. X. Wooden, Nov. 4, 1912.

Americans used to be called nation
Of pie eaters. Today a more appro-
pirate term would be a nation of ba-
mana eaters. The United States takes
more than two-thirds OF the bananas
shipped to the handlers In the world.
Part Of this prominence in banana
consumption is due to geography; the
source Of supply on the Caribbean is
almost at our doors. Part is due to
accident; a Boston skipper introduced
the American public to this tropical
fruit while 1t was still unknown in
Europe. Whatever reason. one may
choose to give, the United States is
the worlds chief banana market, and
though the use Of this fruit is increas-
ing abroad, the American boy remains
