GRADES IN MEXICAN ARMY
American Woman Learned Something
From Visit Paid Her BY a Detaeh-
ment Of VilIistas.

Some years ago a humorous story
went the rounds of the newspapers.
about a young lady who. at a gather.
ing Of the Sons and Daughters Of the
American Revolution. held her head
exceedingly high. explaining her
naughty demeanor on the ground that
she was descended from a bona fide
private sOldier-the only private, she
was convinced. in the Revolutionary
hosts. The following incident would
seem to indicate that the Mexicans
who are fighting tolay are almost as
well oficered" as the patriot army OF
the young lady's lively fancy.
An American woman-now safe in
the states-writes that five soldados of
the Villista following one day rode in.
to her remote mountain camp. They
we're very decent fellows, and made no
threats: still. in the absence of her
husband. it seemed only wise to give
them plenty of food and drink. also tc
yield gracefully to the request OF one
OF the number, who said he was thC
captain. for the loan" OF a blanket.
Pretty soon a second warrior init
mated that he, too. could use a blanke

third made the same request, also ar

REAL MONEY FROM THE OCEAN
Fishing Grounds Yield Abundance OF
Profit 20 Those Who Can Take
Advantage Of Them.

When one hears Of the discovery OF
q new gold mine one is very apt TO
wink the other eye and hold trihe
tighter to the pocketbook. Also, there
is no very great rush TO the scene. But
II is a different story when some al
TRUST fisherman discovers new fishing
grounds and lets the world know OF
It. Then there is a real rush Of fish
ing boats. for the owners thereof
know that such new discoveries are
often real gold mines.
Such has proved TO be the case with
the new halibut grounds discovered In
the Pacific. lying due west from North
Head. Wash, from q to 35 miles OF
the mouth OF the Columbia river.
These grounds. whose area and exact
location are yet unknown. probably
| constitute a veritable bank lying i'm
mediately between two areas which
/ the bureau Of fisheries surveyed with
the steamer Albatross last year.
They are reported to be from 81
TO 95 fathoms deep and are beyond
the 1OO-fathom line given on tn
charts
A small vessel fishing out Of Puge
sound caught $4,000 pounds Of hal
but on these grounds in one day tn
largest single days take this vesss
had ever made. During the thre
weeks ended June 2. 1915, over 10000
pounds Of halibut were brought
from the new gold mines Of the oceai

PALE BEAUTY FADES

The girl who comes home from school or shop tired out every day may be beautiful but she will soon fade. She will be fortunate if she escapes physical breakdown because the ease with which she tires is probably the first warning symptom of thinning of the blood that cannot be disregarded.
 Thin blood may give an attractive pal Tor for short time but soon the patient becomes thin, fat-chested, hagcard and angular The only beauty that endures is that of rich, red blood shining through a transparent skin.
 Almost any girl can build up her blood by using Dr. Williams Pink Pills. They are useful to growing girls, to pale girls, thin girls and those who get tired or out of breath easily. Mothers of such girls should see to 1t that the tendency to anemia is checked by the use of Dr. Will liams' Pink Pills before the trouble be; comes chronic.
 Dr. Williams Pink Pills will build up the blood if anything will. They are free from opiates or harmful drugs and can be taken with perfect safety by any one. Your own druggist sells them so you can begin the treatment at once.
