GREAT NATION UNDER AzTECs
Mexico Got Its Name from Mishtiest
Indian Tribe.

Mexico Got Its Name from Mightiest
Indian Tribe.
Why the Aztecs left their northern
home is not known, even in legend,
but they we're instigated to their wan
derings, tradition says. by their tabled
war god Huitzilopochtli, or MeXitl,
from whom came the name "MeXica"
or "Azteca," by which these people
called themselves. From the beginning
of the tenth to the beginning of the
thirteenth century, A. d., this tribe
journed and sojourned on its south
ward way from valley to valley, from
lake to lake, from Chapala to PatZ-
cuaro, and thence to Tula, the old
Toltec capital. Once more dispersed,
they wandered on and guided by their
oracle, reached their final resting
place at Tenochtitlan.
In company with Teotihuacan at
Texcoco, and Papantla, in the State
of Vera Cruz. ChOlula is ascribed to
the Toltecs. The Toltecs were a pre-
historic people of Mexico and Central
America. To them the Aztecs and the
Mayas ascribed their arts and all the
ancient monuments whose origin they
did not know. According to some writ
ers, the Toltecs are fabulous. The Az
tees are so called from Astlan, the
mythical northern land of the Seven
Caves from which they migrated to
the south to set up a powerful empire
in the valley of Mexico.

The friends of Judge Russell, and
they are many, were panied to hear
of his death-the poor man has lost

BY THE GRIP

The grip is no respecter of persons.
No age or station of life is exempt
from it. The grip is not fatal dis
ease. but 1t leaves it's victim in such a
debilitated condition that one of our
foremost medical writer's has been led
to say, "It is astonishing the number
of people who have been crippled in
health for years after an attack" 1t
is a common thing to hear people date
various ailments from an attack of
influenza.
The condition of those who have
had the grip is one that calls for a
tonic for the blood. DIR. Williams
Pink Pills are especially adapted to
meet this need, as they purify and
enrich the blood, tone up the nerves
and give vigor. strength and health
to the debilitated system.
The grip left me without any
vitality whatever" says one who has
