WASHINGTON RELIEVED.


WASHINGTON. Aug 16.-Another
milestone in the Lind mission to Mex
leo, the transmission of the American
program to President Huerta. having
been passed, there was a distinct feel
ing of relief in administration circles
today. No word has been received
from Mr.. Lind regarding his Interview
with Frederick Gamboa, Mexican min
lister Of foreign affairs, but detailed
report is hourly expected at the state
department.
Washington believes that Mr.. Lind
will succeed in conveying the Ameri
can proposals to Huerta in so diplo-
matte and friendly a manner that the
latter can not object to them abruptly.
Dispatches from Mexico City saying
that General Huerta might retire from
office soon in order to run for the
presidency in the coming election are
puzzling officials here. 1t is not be-
lieved that Huerta can elect himself in
the present state of sentiment in Mex
leo unless he confines the election to
those districts where he has a known
preponderance of votes. 1t is believed
that he has caused this report to be
published to sound the American gov
ernment on the proposition as to
whether it would recognize him if he
were elected to the office he now holds.

The next move is to be made by the

Rumors circulated here are that the

the state department, because of the
nature of certain information he is
reported to have sent to Washington.
] Press Denounces Hale.
The Mexican press has severely crit
icised DR.. Hale, and one paper went
SO far as to accuse him Of saying that
Mexico was to become a territory un-
der the United States.
7 Dr. Hale has been in almost constant
communication with Mr.. Lind since
the latter's arrival, being under in
structions from the department to
turn over to the special envoy all in
formation in his possession relating
to Mexican affairs.

Better Babies Physically Versus
Those With Pretty
Faces.
THE STANDARDIZED INFANT
Statistics Say We May Be a
Nation Of Foreign
Blood.

The baby show at the Pennyroyal
Fair is a fixed certainty but it will
be the most perfectly formed infant
and not the one with the prettiest
face that will win the prize. This will
disappoint many fond mothers as all
of them believe they have the preti-
est children in the world. The baby
has been standardized" just like
everything else, and the cherub with
laughing eyes, dimpled chin, curling
hair and peach-blow cheeks is no
longer cit" It's the hale and husky
little fellow with straight limbs that
has most of the twenty points listed
in the Standardization of this years
baby crop that will be the winner.
Facial perfection counts only five
points out of a thousand and the
prettiest baby in the county has no
showing unless it is built according
to the standard. Now, mothers, let
your babies cry all they want to. to
develop their lungs, eat or drink all
they can hold to make them strong,
and keep them in the bath to pro-
mote the general nutrition of the
body. Groom them patiently and
we'll and maybe the pretty face will
win. This is a day for better men,
better babies and more of them.
Statistics prove that our foreign
population is leading in the number
of births and their cheldren are the
most perfectly formed. Before
many years the pure-blooded Amer
lean population will be in the minor
ity and the United States will be a
nation of foreign blood unless there
is baby farming" on a more liberal
scale.
