Mexican President in Good
Health and Democratic
In Habits.

Mexico City, Mex, March 25-After 4
year IN office, Cen Huerta appears in
better health than when he undertook
the presidency. The difficulties he has
encountered have left no stamp UPON
his features. Six months ago some of
his friends and most Of his enemies pre-
oicted early physical collapse and there
were some who would not have been
surprised had his intellect suffered as
the result Of the enormous odds.
Take things as they come" seems to
have been the lifelong philosophy of
Huerta, tempered always, however. with
the belief that all things come to him
who waits, especially to him who waits

viously used DR.. Kennedy's Favorite REM
edy and she and her family knew of it's
value. The doctors finally decided to allow
her to use it and they found that the results
were more satisfactory than from any other
treatment they had tried. AS they were
broad minded and honest men, they advised
her to continue its use, in connection with
their own general treatment. Aided, there
fore, by Favorite Remedy, the good lady
steadily improved and she is now in most
excellent health.
We will give the names Of all parties

NEW YORK FARM LAND BANK
SYSTEM URGED.

Albany, N. Y, Feb. New York
will be the first State in the Union to
establish land banks. That is the opin-
ion of Gov. Glynn. Two bills will go to
the Legislature Monday night, accom-
panied by a special message urging the
necessity of immediate action by the
Legislature to aid small farmers.
One of the Governors plans is the
establishment of SIS, 900, 900 bank, with
the provision in its charter that it shall
carry three-fourths of all mortgages on
farms in the State. The other scheme
is the coordination of all building and
loan associations throughout the State
into a gigantic clearing house from
which the farmers will be enabled to
obtain loans. st. Louis Times.

Il is seldom that physicians endorse a
ready prepared medicine, for they have
their own remedies and treatment to pre-
scribe, and we don't blame the doctors in
the least. Often, however, they have to adj
nit that DIR. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy
will do more for the patient than their own
prescriptions. Only year or 30 ago such
case happened in Kingston, N. Y, where
one of the best known women in that his

the age of GO years. :. 1t was an alarming
case. She was attended by three of the
leading physicians in Kingston and by q
renowned specialist from New York City.
She slowly recovered from the pneumonia,
only to be attacked by severe nervousness,
accompanied by distressing and compli-
Gated heart trouble. She could not sleep
and her entire system became even more

ONE "SANG BOOKE".

The Scotch, Welch and Irish-that is
to say the Celtic peoples of the British
and of the three, the Scotch excel both
the others in the number of world-fa-
nous melodies. Many of the Scotch
melodies are very ancient, and it is i'm
possible to approximate the exact date
of their creation.
But that royalty itself encouraged the
native bards and Ministries as far back
as the Fifteenth Century, we have pos
tive proof. In 1889 the following item
appears in the accounts of the Lord
High Treasurer of Scotland, during the
reign of James w.:
"14S9, July l. Item, to Wilzeam.
Sangster of Lithgrow, for a sang
booke he brocht to the King by
precept XII. ="
This sum was about the value of IA
oxen in those times, which shows high
appreciation of music on the part of the
Scottish monarch. Based on the valua-
ton, Heart Songs" the most wonder
full of modern song books, would be
worth a whole cattle ranch in Texas,
land and all.
The greatest musical geniuses of the
world have arranged the airs of Scot
land, or used them in their own compo-
sitions, sometimes building an entire
symphonic upon them; notably, Beetho-
ven, Mendelssohn, Weber, Hummer and
Pleyel. The most popular tune today in
the world among 200. 900, 900 English
speaking people, is said to be "Annie
Laurie" This is the vote given by 90
600 music lovers, during four-years
song gathering by Joe Mitchell Chapple,
which resulted in Heart Songs"
collection of 400 world famous songs in
one volume, and which is now being dis.
tributed by the paper to its readers,

Auto SIP !eders Must Spend Night
in Jail

New York, March 10. Automobile
speeders who accept Jail sentences to
avoid payments of fine will no longer be
able to escape with an hour or two under
lock and key as many of them were able
to do under former conditions. The
board of aldermen to-day by vote of
AZ to 2S adopted the new speed ordinance
suggested by Chief Magistrate McAdoo,
the object of which is to compel violators
to spend at least one night in Jail.
Under the old order a speeder was
usually fined $25 or given one day in
Jail. Inasmuch as an official day is
from 900 a. m. until 400 p. m. and
many chauffeurs were sentenced at
three o'clock in the afternoon, they
went to prison for one hour and avoided
the $25 fine.
The law as amended compels the
magistrate to impose fine of $25 or
sentence to at least two days in Jail.

Three Injured as Auto Hits Truck

TIN ee persons were seriously injured
in collision between an automobile
driven by v illiam Dunn of Maiden,
sealer of weights and measures of that
city, and truck team driven by John
Karis of % Auburn street, Cambridge
on Irving street, Maiden, last night.
Mr.. Dunn himselfi is most dangerously
injured. He was crushed between
the steering wheel and the seat of his
machine, and is thought to have suf-
fered internal injuries. Karis, it is
feared, also suffered internal injuries,
for he was thrown into the street and
complained of sharp pains in the abdo-
men after the accident. Dunn's three
children were passengers in the car.
Two of the children, Francis, aged IL,
and Elizabeth, aged 6, were not hurt,
bat the youngest child, George, aged 5,
was thrown out and badly shaken up.
The accident, according to witnesses,
was due to the fact that both Karis and
Dunn tried to make too rapid Roadway
in congested traffic.
Both men saw an opening at the same
time, and when they endeavored to take
advantage of it to pass other vehicles
the collision resulted. The injured per
sons were taken to their homes. - Bos

WOMEN ON SCHOOL BOARDS.

Editor Register:
l enclose clipping which appeared
first in the Mortified News, which con-
tains good sense.
If a man was looking for a manager
for his farm he would not hire a lawyer
or merchant, OF doctor, or clergyman;
on the other hand he would hire a
farmer who understood the business he
was to look after. 1t is equally logical
to require the school board to know
something about teaching school and
the management of children. If l am
wrong in this opinion, will some reader
set me right. TAXPAYER.
In almost every State in the Union
there is at least one woman on the
school board. Why does not Vermont
adopt this plan? 1t would be one small
step in the right direction, and it would
not increase expenses. Mortified
might take the initiative in this matter
and have a woman school director and
try it out. 1t has certainly worked tc
good advantage, wherever it is prac.
ticed, ard the States which do have
women school directors are all States
that stand away ahead of Vermont ir
educational lines. There are few mer
who know the needs of the schools as
the mothers know them; few men have
the time to think of many details that
should be looked after. Mortified has
not had the best possible schools, and il
there is chance of increasing theil
efficiency by having the advice and CO
operation of woman on the board, by
all means let US have one appointed.

MANY PERSONS BURNED TO
DEATH.
Magnificent 100000 Club
House Destroyed by Fire.

st. Louis, Mo-, March Six men
were killed, about 81 are unaccounted
for and about 80 were injured in fire
that destroyed the seven story building
of the Missouri Athletic club today.
Three of the dead are unidentified. The
fire which started during the early
morning was still burning at noon and
it would be unsafe to send anyone into
the ruins to search for the missing until
tonight or tomorrow.
The building was owned by the Boat
mems bank, which occupied a part of
the first floor. In the vaults of the
burned bank building officials said were
81, 349, 900 in currency and $27, 900 in
coin.
The exact number of dead within the
mass of brick, rock and twisted iron,
where the magnificent clubhouse stood,
may not be known for several days.
Officers of the club differ as to the
number of persons who were in the
building when the fire alarm was given.
Estimates as to the number now miss
ing vary between % and 100.
One hundred and thirty-five pei sons
were registered at the club last night.
How many there were in the building at
the time of the fire is not known. OF
those who were in the club 35 have been
accounted for.
The property damage is estimated at
more than 81, 100000. At daylight only
part of the front and rear walls re-
manned. The roof had caved in, carry
ing several floors with it and the side
walls had collapsed from the roof to
the ground floor, which is occupied by
the bank.

assumed to be the protector of the
citizens and subjects of all other ma
tions and insisted that such nations
should leave this duty and RESPONSE
bility to us.
''This case was one to put our good
faith and our courage to the test. The
poor widow asked for the body of her
dead husband, buried on Mexican soil.
What did our government do to secure
this right? 1t humbly petitioned Villa,
his murderer, to allow his remains to be
removed. The state department spent
days in trying to find out whether this
man was shot by Villa or put to death
by order of a drumhead court-martial,
called not by soldier, not by a bellig-
erent, but by a brigand and profess
sonal murderer. What possible differ
ence could it make whether he lost his
life one way or the other?"
What should the government have
done in the case? Just what it should
have done for one of its own citizens
sent our soldiers into Mexico and
brought out the body. What right had
Villa to say whether the body of the
victim of his wrath and cruelty should
be removed or not? What has become
of our courage and manhood that we
could leave it to him to settle such q

Girls Injured as Auto Hits Post.
One girl was thrown to the street and
sustained injuries to spine, legs and
arms, and second young woman was
severely shaken up Tuesday night when
a motor truck crashed into lamp post
at Brookline Village. The more seri-
ously injured of the girls claimed that
the truck struck her, while the driver
asserted that part of the post had in
flicted the injuries.
Miss Mary Conway of Sachem street,
Roxbury, and Miss Catherine Tobin of
Calumet street, were the two injured
The driver of the truck was Ralph
Wheeler of Roxbury.
Wheeler insisted that the collision of
his machine with the lamp post had
been due to another motor that he said
ran into his auto. A car was hastily
chartered and was run to Ruggles street
and Huntington avenue, where the
driver of the machine, Wheeler claimed
to be responsible was overtaken. He
was brought back to Brookline Village,
and invited the police to inspect his
machine for any indications of collision
such as would have been apparent if he
had hit Wheeler's car and forced it into
the post. None was found, and the
police allowed him to depart, although
by doing so they did not officially dis
credit Wheeler's story of having beer
struck. BE ston Herald.
