NEW VERSION
OF OLD TALE.
Story of Arms from Japan
for Huerta So De-
scribed
GOVERNMENT
OF EMPIRE
Has Not Furnished War
Munitions - Business
Houses May Have

Washington, Jan. 90. Reports have
been published that Japan was supply
ing arms to the Huerta government and
that President Wilson discussed that
phase of the Mexican situation with the
members of the Senate foreign relations
committee Monday night.
This was said at the White House
yesterday to be "an old story re-
yamped."
1t was stated yesterday on the au.
thority of senator who attended that
during general talk those who favored
raising the embargo on arms expressed
the view that the Huerta government
was able to procure ammunition with
ease from abroad.
They did not contend that the Jap.
anese government was directly concerned,
but declared that ammunition had been
bought of Japanese commercial houses.
1t was stated yesterday that the sub
iect was discussed incidentally in con-
nection with the argument that the
constitutionahsts We're at disadvantage
in the present struggle without ports OF
entry, such as the Huerta government
holds.
White House officials declined abso-
lutely to say what the views of the pres
ident were on the subject.

Cheap and
Easily Made, But Ends
a Cough Quickly
Cough Remedy at Home.
Fully Guaranteed.

This pint of cough syrup is easily
made at home and saves you about $500
as compared with ordinary cough rene
dies. 1t relieves obstinate coughs-even
whooping cough-quickly, and is splen-
did, too, for bronchial asthma, spas
modic Group and hoarseness.
Mix one pint of graduated sugar with
n pint of warm water, and stir for
minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty
cents WORTHY in a pint bottle, and add
the Sugar Syrup. Take a teaspoonful
every one, two or three hours. Tastes
good.
This takes right hold OF cough and
lates the appetite, and is slightly laxa-
tive--both excellent features.
Pinex, as perhaps you know, is a
Norway white pine extract, rich in
guaiacol and the other natural healing
pine elements.
No other preparation will do the work
OF Pinex in this mixture, although
strained honey can be used instead of
the sugar syrup. If desired.
Thousands of housewives in the United
States and Canada now use this Pinex
and Sugar Syrup remedy. This plan has
often been initiated, but the old success
full combination has never been equaled.
Its low cost and quick results have made
1t immensely popular.

RATE INCREASE
OUTLOOK is POOR
Frisco Report and New Haven Scandal
Likely to Aid in Denial of
Petition.

Washington, Jan. 29.--It is already
apparent that the revelations in the
Frisco report by the interstate COM
merce commission will be made the basis
of strong opposition in congress to the
5 per cent. increase in freight rates
which the railroads in eastern territory
are demanding.
On the heels of the Frisco report SEN
ator Norris is expected to introduce a
resolution calling for investigation as to
the inside of the New Haven high fl
nancing. Senator Norris wants to know
what became of all the money raised in
the Mellen regime which did not go into
improvements.
The Frisco report will be published
as a Senate document. 1t will be made
the basis for demands for strict control
OF capitalization as well as of opposition
TO increasing freight rates.
The opinion is growing here, follow
ing the tap line decision, that instead
of permitting the roads to increase rates.
the interstate commerce commission will
point out to the roads how economies
can be made.
The great pile of statistics presented
to the commission by shippers of the
official classification territory to back up
their protest against per cent. in
crease were augmented yesterday with
data on the tile, brick, and clay indus
try. Witnesses from many parts of the
brick territory agreed with witnesses
representing other industries previously
heard that the carriers could increase
their revenues more than 5 per cent. and
eliminating unnecessary expenditures.

EDUCATION OF IMMIGRANTS.
The Problem Is of Great Importance TO
United States.

That immigrants are keenly interest.
ed in schooling for their children, OF
at least conspicuously obedient to school.
attendance laws, is the declaration OF
DR.. 7. p. Claxton, United States COM
missioner of education. "The least il.
literate of our population are the ma
tive born children of foreign parents,
says DR.. Claxton, in a bulletin on edu.
cation for immigrants just issued. "The
illiteracy among the children of native
born parents is three times as great
as that among native-born children OF
foreign parents"
Dr. Claxton reviews the whole prob.
lem of education for immigrants, in and
out OF school. "To the people of no
other country is the problem OF so much
Importance as to the people of the Uni
ted States. No other country has SO many
men, women and children coming to
its shores every year from all parts OF
the world.
"Many of those who have come to
us in recent years are from countries
having very meager provisions for pub
lie education. According to the feder-
al census of 1910 more than % per cent.
of the foreign-bo born population OF three
states was illiterate, from 10 to % per
cent. of states, from 10 to Is per cent
of Ii states, and from five to 10 per
cent. of states, from 10 to Is per cent.
was the percentage of illiteracy of the
foreign born population less than five.
"Most of the immigrants in recent
years have little kinship with the old.
er stocks of our population, either in
blood, language, methods of thought,
traditions, manners, or customs; they
know little of our political and civic
life and are unused to our social ideals;
their environment here is wholly differ
ent from that to which they have been
accustomed Strangers to each other,
frequently from countries hostile to each
other by tradition, of different speech
and creeds, they are thrown together,
strangers among strangers, in strange
country, and are thought of by US only
as conglomerate mass of foreigners.
With little attention to their specific
needs, they are crowded into factories,
mines, and dirty tenement quarters, too
often the prey of the exploiter in bus
mess and the demagogue in politics.
Immigrant education is not alone the
question of the school education of chill
dren. The millions of adult men and
women, and of children older than the
upper limit of the compulsory school
attendance age, must be looked after;
they must be prepared for American
citizenship and for participation in our
democratic industrial, social, and relig-
ious life; they must be given sympa-
thetic help in finding themselves in their
new environment and in adjusting them
sleeves to their new opportunities and
responsibilities. The proper education
of these people is duty which the ma
ton owes to itself and to them. 1t can
neglect this duty only to their hurt and
its own peril"

THIS new MEDICINE
SAVES YOU MONEY

We are druggists right here in your
town and make a living out of the drug
business, but it is because people have
to have drugs and not because we like
to see people suffer-we don't. Our duty
is to render the best service we can, and
when someone is ailing, we are interest
ed in seeing them take the best medi-
cine there is for their particular trouble.
We don't recommend "cure-alls," as we
don't believe there are such things. We
don't want you to spend more than you
have to. Some of you get small wages,
and when you're sick, none at all, and
you should get the most you can for
your money.
We recently came across new rem
edy for increasing strength and building
up people who are rundown and ema-
ciated. We know that slight trouble
sometimes grows into a serious one, and
to stop it in the beginning, will save
you money in the end. This new COM
pound is called Rexall Olive Oil Emul-
sion. 1t is the best remedy, when you
are rundown, tired out, nervous--no
mater what the cause. 1t doesn't mere
ly stimulate you and make you feel
good for few hours, but takes hold
of the weakness and builds you up to a
healthy, normal condition. It is a real
nerye-food tonic and builder of good
blood, strong muscle, good digestion. II
contains hypophosphites, which tone the
nerves, and pure olive oil, which nour-
ishes the nerves, the blood and the en-
tire system. Pleasant to take. Contains
no alcohol or habit-forming drugs. We
promise that if you are not perfectly
satisfied with it, Wen give back your
money as soon as you tell us. Sold only
at the 1000 Rexail stores, and in this
town only by us. Sl00.--R Red Cross
