Health a Factor in Success.

The largest factor contributing to a mans success Is undoubtedly health. It has been observed that a man is seldom sick when his bowels are regular-he is never well when they are constipated.

El Paso, Texas, May Desperate
 fighting is in progress before Saltillo
 but the wires direct from the from
 are silent, it is believed, under the
 order of Gen. Francisco Villa, have
 brought no details of the engage
 ments Whether Villa has fought his ! way through the outer defense of the l federal stronghold and is knocking on the gates of Statillo itself or
 whether a desperate defense of the | positions north of the town have suf-
 feed to check the constitutionalist
 advance, was uncertain from the liC | tie news that came through. The only direct information reach ing here was in a dispatch from lsidro Fabela, acting minister of for eign affairs in the constitutionalist government, which informed the con stitutionalist junta here that Villa had defeated d force of 5000 federals at Paredon, inflictng heavy casual ties, capturing eight hundred pris- oners several machine guns, G00,000 rounds of ammunition and other val uable munitions of war. Two federal generals were among those said 10 have been killed
 Neither the time nor date of the engagement was specified in Fabea's dispatch, which was sent from nu- rango early this afternoon and which reached here four hours later Gen eral Carranza and his staff, among whom was Senor Fabela, returned to Durango late last night from Som brete, zacatecas. It is regarded here as possible that the news contained in the dispatch may have been sent in a wire from the front some days ago.
 The mention of the engagement of 5000 troops at Parednn has proven puzzle to men here who have followed the campaign closely. The first serious engagement, of the campaign was reported to have occurred near that point Friday, when three huu- dred men of the Zaragoza brigade under Gen Raoul Madero surprised and scattered a federal force of four hundred Madero then was reported to have occupied the town of Pare don. The federal garrison was said later to have retired to Ramos Arizpa, six miles north of SaltiIlo, after cutting the railroad from Pare don as they retreated.
 This is the last direct news of the campaign to reach here from the front, although other minor skr mishes were rumored. The question of how the 5000 federal troops could reach Paredon anu participate in battle there, miles from the federal base at SaltiIlo, remained unsolyed tonight.
 If the Durango dispatch is correct and the enga cement took place after the defeat administered to the federal force by General Madero it may indi- cate that the federals have advanced in force from Salulo driving before them the consttutioualists scouts and reconnaissance parties known 10 be operating in the country between Saltillo and Paredon. Another possi biity is that an augmented force ot federals from Moncova. fleeing be fore Gen. Francisco Murgia, who ad- yanced from %iedras N2Eras against them. stumbled into a brush with General Villas forces.
 lt is possible the news from fabeld may be an exaggerated account or the first Paredon engagement.

The Advertiser
Takes No Chances

It's an easy matter to find big
stories of advertising success in
the commercial, professional and
industrial enterprises that stretch
across every contentment. If you
seek for information, you can find
many of them right at home. In
Fitzgerald, for instance, advertis-
ing has done and IS doing some
wonderful things pulling little
business ahead; swelling its volumn
of trade. The want of advertising
is also pushing, here and there, a
little business behind; leaving it
out of the public eye.
Lack of advertising has helped
many men out of business. They
were afraid to take chances as
they thought advertising was a
gamble. On the other hand, the
business man who takes chances
is he who neglects his advertising.
Because this is the force back of
every business that is making sue
cessful commercial history. You
search for the policy behind every
failure in business and, in nine
cases out of ten, you will find fail
ure to advertise.
A small ad now and then doesn't
help much but regular advertising
pays and pays we'll. So let this in
centive pull your business out of
the common rut and place it along
side those that will grow into a
profitable old age.
Don't take any more chances.
For results use.
