RUSH ] MEN-OF- WAR
 TO CENTRAL AMERICA
United States Will Use Force to Protect Americans and Property in Central American Republics if
 NeceSsary-UnreSt Prevails.

Washington, Feb. S.-Preparations for rushing five United States men of-war to both coasts of Central America to meet any emergency which may arise from the brewing unrest there, went forward rapidly today
 The gunboat Annapolis, with her crew of jackies augmented from South Dakota and Colorado, started last night from San Diego, Cal, to Amapala, Honduras, to stand guard on the Pacific side. The Nashville, at New Orleans, is making ready for sea and is expected to put our for Puerto Cortez, Honduras, on the At lantic side, early Monday morning.
 The cruiser Des Moines, now at Guantanamo, the cuban naval sta- ton, has been ordered to be at Bluefield, Nicaragua, not later than February i5. The Denver, which has been standing by distressed Americans threatened by attack from Mexican rebels at Acapulco, will put out from here in day or two and drop down to Acajutia, Sal vador.
 It is probable these four ships whose movements were decided up on late yesterday after Washington had received reports of possible trouble in the Latin republic, will be augmented by the gunboat Ia coma, now at Boston.
 From it's confidential sources in Central America this government has been informed of reports that juntas of degosed dictalors and rev olutionisls are meeting here and there, plotting to stir up trouble. While ihe presence of American Warships would be principally in- tended to provide refuge for Ameri- cans and other foreign citizens, there is no doubt that marines and bluejaclleis might he sent into the interior if the situation should arise paralleling that in Nicaragua when American troops were called upon to open a railroad and engage the rebels in battle.
 There has been sharp criticism in congress of this governments in reference in the Nicaraguan revo- luton, but it is said President Taft and Secretary Knox are firmly con- vinced of their right to use Ameri. can forces for the protection of United States citizens and property whenever a state of anarchy exists Tn Central America, or the estab- llshed governments fail to do so.

HANDING 4 JOB"
 IS AN EASY MATTER
Advice We'll Worth Remembering, for Use Whenever Necessary, Is Given by Chicago Authority
 -NeatncSS a Good Asset.

A Chicago authority on the sub ject gives some good advice to per sons hunting jobs He tells in a straightforward manner how you should dress and deport yourself If you would make favorable lm- pression and get chance to show what you can do.
 q am the manager of the em- ployment department of a large wholesale house" he said. II have had the position for seven years, and as my firm employs over 300 people, some of my observations on how to get a job may prove valu- able to the man or girl who is in search of employment. Perhaps, too. may be able to al swer a ques- ton that annoys so many people; Why didn't 1 land that job?'
 T engage people for many de- partments, ranging from office boys at $3 a week to clerks at S25. The higher positions are mostly through promotions and are given to men known personally to the firm, who do not have to apply for positions through my department. Occasion ally, though, engage men as sales men or salesmanagers whose sal aries average S3,000 or S4,000 year. The girls 1 engage range from file girls at $5 week to stenographers and private secretaries at SIS and S20.
 The man l employ must be neat. His clothes need not be fine. On the contrary, if they are too good or too ornamental am suspicious and do not employ him. But he must be neat, clean and agreeable look ing. I do not want a dude as my firms representative. Neither do l want men who have run down heels, long, untrimmed hair and a general air of being down and out.
 The questions l put to the ap- | plicant are few. Usually his meth cd of answering is as important as | his answer If his voice is low and courteous, if he has had only few positions in the last few years and has plausible reasons for leaving them, if he is ambitious and earn est and seems to fit in with the sort of men I am employing in his de- partment l engage him.
 The man who knocks" his last firm and starts in to tell how poorly | he was treated and to give away trade secrets, never gets a position He wouldn't last long if he did and then he would knock us when he left.
 T like young men, but a middle aged man with a good record is just as capable of doing good work and IS given the same chance
 "The next time you apply for a job remember that the man tc whom you apply is only human. II you answer by mail, write a short strictly to the point application Don't be afraid to state what salary you want and if you think you arc capable of holding the position say so and tell why.
 Give one or two references. That Is enough in almost all cases, but give real references.
 Tn personal interview try not to be embarrassed. Be natural, un- affected and truthful. Dress neatly Above all, don't try to dictate to the man who IS employing you"

POPE PLUS POUNDS
 SCHOOL IN ITALY.

Rome, Feb. Tt is announced that the pope has contributed S60,- 900 for the foundation of a special school at Frascati, near Rome, for young men who are desirous of be- coming school teachers. The school will be under the managements of the Salesian Fathers. All the or phans of the Messina earthquake who are being brought up at the expense of the pope have been ad- mitted to this school. They will be trained for teachers, and by this means it is hoped that the attempts of the anti-clericals against relig- ious instruction in public schools will be counteracted.

EAT MEAT SPARINGLY
DURING SUMMER.

Meat heats the blood-eat very
little of it during hot weather. That
doesn't mean that you have to sac
rifce nourishing food because it is
heating.
You will find Faust Spaghetti more
nourishing than meat, and it is also
light cooling food. By analysis
you will find that a 10c package Of
Faust Spaghetti contains as much
nutrition as lbs. of beef. It is a
rich, glutinous food made from
Durum Wheat, the cereal extremely
high in protein.
Faust Spaghetti can be served in
many different ways-write for free

squarely-all save those from the
Chicago section of the grandstand.
There were cries of Back to the

If Gordon heard these remarks, he
gave no indication Of it. He stood
squarely at the plate, waiting for the
great Walsh to pitch to him.
