The woman who died was Hackett's s

that others than he should inherit her

money.

LESS DYSPEPSIA NOW
HERES THE REASON

The fact that there is less dyspepsia and
Indigestion in this community than there
used to be is largely, we believe, due to the
extensive use OF Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets,
hundreds of packages of which we have
sold. No wonder We have faith in them
No wonder we are willing to offer them to
you for trial entirely at our risk
Among other things, they contain Pep
SIN and Bismuth, two of the greatest diges-
tive aids known to medical science. They
soothe the infamed stomach, allay pain,
check heartburn and distress, help to digest
the food, and tend to quickly restore the
stomach to its natural, comfortable,
healthy state
There is no red tape about our guaran-
tee. 1t means just what it says Well ask
you no questions Your word is enough fol-
us. If Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets don't re.
store your stomach to health and make
your digestion easy and comfortable, We
want you to come back for your money
They are sold only at the 1000 Rexal
Stores, and in this town only by us. Three

CARRANZA WILL Do HIS DUTY
Declares Intervention Would Not Ac.
complish It's PURPOSE.

New York, March 5.-General Ven
ustfano CarranZa, supreme chief OF
the Mexican rebels, in an interview at
Nogales, published in the New York
world, said:
81 can say positively that interven-
tion would not accomplish what the
United States thinks, but would pro
woke a war which. besides it's own
consequences, would cause a profound
hatred between the two countries and
between the United States and the
whole of Latin-America-a hatred
which would eEdanger the whole po
litical future of the United States.
IF Intervention came | would com
ply with my duty. | can say no more
on that subject. | do not believe in
tervention probable, because such a
step is contrary to the interests oi
the United States. | do not believe
the United States will intervene on
account of the Benton case. Anyway
II is not the business of the United
States to intervene, because Benton
was British subject and not an
American. will accept negotiations
from the British government so far
as Great Britain is concerned
CrticIses Foreign Powers.
Great Britain now has an accred
tied representative to the Huerta gov
ernment. He is man who accepts
ticpC from Huarfa toEac ~rF hie
hat and shakes hands with him
When Madero was murdered all the
foreign powers fed to the spot as a
lot of vultures flock to the dead and
recognized the murderer, because
they had the interests of men who
had petty business in the republic
THE killing of Benton was due to
a malicious attack on Villa by an
enemy of the revolutionists and Eng
land, the bully of the world, found
herself In position Of being unable
to deal with us unless she humiliat
ed herself by sending her representa-
tives to the Constitutionalists; so she
attempted to use the United States
as a catspaw.
More shame to the United States
that she allow herself to join with
these infamous powers.
1T is true that Villa recalled the
invitation to investigate the body o1
Benton, because l informed him that
he was not to treat with any nation
concerning international affairs. Wills
and | are in perfect accord"
