Why Clocks Get out Of order.

The reason why mantelpiece clocks

has not been drawn before. A Lon

THE GREATEST KIDNEY REMEDY
On EARTH" SAYS A CRATE
FUL WOMAN.

l want to tell you how much good
your Swamp-Root did me. About four
years ago. l suffered from what the
doctors called fistula and for two
years of that time, l endured what no
tongue can tell. 1 also had infamma-
ton of the bladder and l tried doctors
medicines without receiving any help.
Someone told me about DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root.
After giving It thorough trial, I
received relief, so kept on using it
and today am strong and well wo-
man. If I ever feel badly or out Of
sorts, l take Swamp-Root and it al
ways straightens me out 1 honestly
believe that this medicine would cure
all troubles you recommend it for and
it is pleasure for me to send my tes-
timony and photograph to you. [
think DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is
one of the greatest medicines on earth.

INDIGESTION OVERCOME
Overcone BY Simple Remedy.

overcome by Simple Remedy.
Hurried and careless habits of eat
ing, irregular meals and foods that
do not harmonic, tend to weaken
the digestive organs and result in
/ different forms Of stomach trouble.
If you are one of the unfortunates
who have drifted into this condition,
eat simple foods only, slowly, regu-
larly and take Vinol, our delicious
cod liver and iron tonic.
Mrs. H. J. Smith, Thomasville, Ca,
says: 81 suffered from a stomach
trouble, was tired, worn out and ner-
vous. A friend advised me to take
Yinol. My stomach trouble soon dis
appeared and now I eat heartily and
have perfect digestion and 1 wish
every tired, weak woman could have
Vinol, for I never spent any money
in my life that did me so much good"
The recovery of Mrs. Smith was
due to the combined action of the
medicinal elements of the Gods livers
aided by the blood making and
strength creating properties of tonic
iron, which are contained in Vfnol.
We will return the purchase money
every time Vinol fails to benefit.

Week OF Grace.
While tae ships are under way
Gen. Huerta VIII have a5ou: a week
in which to answer the American de-
mands. The crisis in the 81 uation is
expected to come if Gen. Huerta de-
clines to yeild by the time the At
lan,ic feet arrives. Various succeed
ing steps wee being discussed among
naval officers today and those familiar
with precedent said there was no
exact parallel in international law.
1t was pointed out by some that
the United States might land marines
and seize Tampico to obtain satisfac-
ton for the incident, but this raised
the question of whether or not an act
Of war would be involved. The
Washington administration has pro-
nounced itself on the subject of land
ing marines or marching armed
forces into Mexico as regarding such
acts in the nature of war unless per-
mission is given by the government
in control of the territory invaded:
Inasmuch as no government is rec
ognized in Mexico, but a State of an
archy exists, the American govern
ment may establish its own precedent
in the case. 1t is not considered like
ly that, if marines actually were land
ed and the American flag taken
ashore in satisfaction for the affront
occasioned by the arrest of the ma
rines, any further measures would be
insisted on. Some officers pointed out
that the Huerta commander might
not resist the landing Of American
marines, inasmuch as he is hemmed
in on land by the constitutional
forces. Should he consent to a peace
ful landing it is likely that they soon
would be withdrawn.
The American government has
landed marines in San Domingo and
Nicaragua but has held that permis-
sion was granted in each case. In
Nicaragua American marines kept a )
railroad from falling into the hands
of rebeHious force. Actual war or
Intervention could not be undertaken
without authorization by congress
and even the landing of marines at
times has raised a question in the
