Huerta and became the first stronghold
of the Constitutionalists. General Gar.
rama fought to establish a stable gov.
eminent for the state.
Meantime Huerta sought the recog
milton Of this government. On Apf1
IL. 1913, it was announced unofacialF
at Washington that the United States
would not recognize Huerta or his gov
ernment.
In the few months that followed ths
federals were forced to evacuate EN-
paleme and then were besieged at
Guaymas. On April 20 Carranza was
named supreme chief Of the Constitr
honalists. The next victory OF the
rebels was the capture Of Durango On
Aug, 8. That city was made Carrar
zass capital -.
Last November General vfl1a began
to display remarkable strength as 4
military leader, giving new vim to The
rebel cause.
The rebels hesitated In their onward
march when President Wilson sent ths
feet to Vera Cruz, occupying that city
Within short time, however, they
were moving on Tampico and took
that place on May IA. The next I'm

capture of zacatecas, stin nearer Me1t

Guadalajara fell into their hands.
The end of Huerta was near. On
July IL he appointed Carbajal as min.
lister of foreign affairs, and on July Is
he resigned, Carbajal succeeding him
Carbajal sought to make peace with
Carranza, asking that his soldiers re-
ceive the honors Of war In yielding
Mexico City, but Carranza refused to
give any promises. He moved his men
steadily on the capital. Carbajal re-
signed and left for Vera Cruz.

WAR

The thrill of wars base deceit;
The rattle Of the drums a lie.
II lures brave men with scurrying fee.
To go where many dangers lie;
II sings soldiers death is sweet;
II tells how great It Is to die.
And yet no death can splendid be
That's caused by selfishness and pr,a,
The weeping widow-does not she
Long for the husband at her side?
Can any selfish victory
Restore the loved one that has died,
To die for others may be fine.
But not to die for others gain.
The thin and faltering battle line.
The dead men on the bloody plain
Are seldom there by Gods design:
Some human soul must wear the stan
Murder In uniform is war,
Exalted only by a thrill
And how long must It be before
Men will not blindly rush to kinf
How many generations more
Before the cannon's voice is still7

DIET AND GOOD HEALTH.
Food should Be Carefully Selected and
Properly Varied.

Food Should Be Careruity Setected ana
Properly Varied.
The eminent American psychologist
Lusk says that nature. through the de-
vice Of appetite, usually provides
against the use Of improper food, but
that reason must play a part in food
selections. A glass of milk and piece
of pie are poor materials for the brain
of an active business man whose seden-
tary life requires $500 heat units or
ealories to maintain his body machin-
cry.
We need also water. salts, proteins
and certain newly discovered sub
stances called vitamines. All these
materials are to be found In milk.
beans, bread and other great funda-
mentals of nutrition. Solutions of cane
sugar or of glucose are not the exclu-
sive mainstays of life. and yet glucose
taken alone yields $500 calories at a
cost of 4 1-6 cents, and $500 calories
in the form of cane sugar cost 1-3
cents.
Glucose is the cheapest food fuel
known, but. like cane sugar or butter
fat, is not a complete food in that it
does not contain everything necessary
for life. Commercial glucose is abso-
lutely harmless. A man must have
sufficient calories in bis diet if he is
to live properly and perform labor sat
isfactorily.-New York WArld.

Power Of Failing Water.

Still water gives no power, no en-
ergy. Falling water has only as much
power as is represented by It's weight
A gallon ofsfallfng water will develop
as much power as d faiiing block of
iron weighing 62.5 pounds. OF course.
the greater the fall the greater the pow
er developed Water falling one foot
will develop a pressure Of .4S pounds
per square inch of pipe. The same
amount Of water falling 100 feet will
develop pressure of 43.31 pounds per
square inch Of pipe. Falling 1000 feet
it would produce pressure Of 1890
pounds per square inch Of pipe. To
compute the power Of falling water it
is necessary to multiply the volume of
flowing water in cubic feet per minute
by its weight. 62.5 pounds. and this
product by the vertical height of the
fall in feet, and divide by $4,000, the
number Of foot pounds representing
one horsepower for one minute.-New

the case that the kaiser always speaks
Of him as @der traurige julius (the

General Joffre is the most determined
supporter of the policy of attack in
war.
At the age of eighteen he command
ed battery of artillery throughout the
Eiege of Paris. He took part in the
Formosa and Tonkin campaigns and
later was engaged in West Africa, di-
recting the construction of railroads
there, heading the relief column which
went to the assistance Of the BONNER
expedition and penetrating as far as
Timbuktu and selling that mysterious
city which for centuries had been the
headquarters Of the native trade of
central Africa.
He likewise had large share In the
conquest Of the island Of Madagas-
