Paulis Al referred to an ointment of
red oxide of mercury. What you want
is probably a cosmetic that contains car
mine. Ask for this and your druggist
will supply 1t.
Medea-You can use either heat or cold
to allay ordinary pain, whichever feels
most grateful, but in abdominal condi-

used exclusively.

Word comes to US from Palm
Beach, where so many society women
have foregathered to avoid the chill
ing winds OF winter that quite the lat
est fad in needlework consists of max
ing baby kits" The babies who re-
ceive these kits are the war babies of
Belgium or Northern France, or any
other babies who need them. But the
fact that has made the making of
these little war kits popular, we are
told. is not so much that the babies,
more than others are in need of help
at this time, but that little baby things
make very dainty and attractive porch
work After all, heavy woolen nit
tens and mufflers, such as we made a
year or more ago, were, at best,
clumsy work for dainty fingers.

VILLA HAS BEEN SHOT AGAIN.

Francisco Villa has been shot, ac-
cording to Il dispatch from Mexico. He
is said to have been shot from the
rear by Il Mexican he had impressed
into his gang, during the battle with
Caraanza troops at Guerrero, but his
fate is still unknown. The Informal
ton was contained in Il semi-ofiicial
account by Major Robert HowGe, who
was close on Villas trail last April
Major Howsc learned the details of
the wounding of the bandit chieftain
from one Of the McXicans Villa had
drafted and who afterwards desert
ed.
The details of the story agreed with
facts American officers obtained in
their pursuit Of Villa and by their in
dependent secret service work but the
account does not say whether the
bandit died or recovered.
Villa. the Mexican descrter said,
exhibited every evidence of terror
during the early stages of his flight,
after the Americans had defeated his
men ut Guerrero. The informant said
he believed Villa was dead, but if he
still! were alive, he was in the State
of Durango, for which point he was
heading during his flight from Gen
erIl Pcrshing's men.

THE BLUEFIELD-TAZEWELL AU-
TO-CAR SERVICE.

The car service, scheduled to run
daily from Bluelicld to Tazcwcll, has
been discontinued even before it
started. RumorS, not quite compli-
mentary to the council of this town,
have been afloat, to the effect that the
council put the license tax at u pro-
hibitory figure, ostensibly to keep the
service out of town, as it came in
competition with our automobile SER
vice here. The council has gotten the
reputation in some circles of taking
things to death" as the best way of
getting and keeping rid of what is
not supposed to be wanted in our
midst, as was done in the case of
several carnivals, and in one specific
case when carnival band, and Il
good one, too, was not permitted to
give free concerts in the street once Il
day, unless particular tax of $1,000
was paid for each performance. The
council had it's own reason for this
prohibition, which, so far as we know,
has been kept to itself, but as to this
latter charge that the Blucfield auto
service was kept out by any special
tax or ruling, there is no truth in it
whatever. The Blueiield people never
mentioned the matter to the council
or to any member thereof They came
ahead, and when asked by the Sar-
geant for their license rec-the reg
ular fee-they declined to pay it, and
quit the field. The regular license tax
for 5-passenger car, 20 II. p. or
less, run for hire, is $1,000; for Il T.
passenger car, run for hire. $1,000.
These rates are published, and pre-
umably We're known-certainly could
have been ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
We are assured by the Mayor and
one member of the council, that there
was no disposition on the part of the
council to prohibit the auto service.
In fact, they knew nothing i'm the
world about it, MS Il council, until
the whole matter was over. And. so,
any criticism Of the council is unjust,
in this regard, ut least.
An article in The Telegraph (Which
this writer did not see) stated that
license tax of $4,000 was asked the
auto people. If this is true it was n
license tax for two 7-passenger ears.
which is the regular tax paid by all
our people.

Cooper Meets Old Schoolmate.

Washington, June 2G.-Congress-
man Edward Cooper had occasion to
call at the war department. His bust
ness was with the secretary of war
himself. He sent in his card.
When he entered there was very
little man at very large desk pull
ing away on pipe. The little man,
who was Secretary of War Baker,
looked up casually from the work he
was doing. Then he started with q
leap toward Cooper.
Good Lord, boy! What are you do
ing hcre?"
Then Baker learned for the first
time that Cooper had come up from
the mines of Mercer county to the
halls of Congress.
They were old classmates and chum
in those good old college days at the
Virginia Military Institute.
1t nearly broke Secretary Bakers
heart TO urn down his old but new.
found friends first official request
and he said so almost tearfully.
Cooper wanted another regiment of
West Virginia soldiers called to the
colors.

New York Tribune:

New York Tribune:
The United States is Enthusiastically
on the edge of another declaration of
war with Mexico. If there is any
chance OF peace it must flow from the
recognition of the Carianza govern
mcnt that the people of the United
states stand unitcdly and wholchcart-
eddy behind President Wilson to his
determination to protect American
lives, American soil and American
honor.
Such being the fact. The Tribune as
Il Republican newspaper pledges itself
to support Mr.. Wilson in every act
which is designed TO defend American
interests and protect American lives
We believe that the people of the
United States will loyalty endorse his
step in calling out the militia and will
follow him unhesitatingly in any fur
ther and similar action that he shall
deem necessary.
Discussion of the mistakes in policy
of the administration which have
brought us to the very edge of war
must now be adjourned until the de
clslon for war or peace is made The

that the country is ready and willing

Today we must all practice Il little
of the Americanism some of US have

This Americanism, it seems to The
Tribune, must begin by supporting the

demonstrating that ut the point that
we have now reached all 'conSdcra-
tons save those of establishing our
unity in purpose and our determine

SENATE PASSES MEASURE TO
DRAFT MlLITIAMEN.

Washington, June 26.-The house
resolution authorizing the President
to draft national guardsmen into the
federal service was adopted by the
senate today after a one million dol
lar appropriation to aid dependent
families OF those so drafted had been
stricken out and provision submitted
under which guardsmen having fami-
lies dependent on them could be ex-
cused from service. A preamble de-
claring that an emergency now exists
requiring the service of the troops
other than the regular army also was
eliminated.
There was some confusion tonight
over the exact meaning of the reso-
luton as finally adopted. Senator
CLARK, of Wyoming, who moved to
strike out the declaration of an emer-
gency, included in his motion a pro-
posal to eliminate also qualifying
clause hinging the draft authorization
on section Ill of the army rcorgani-
Zation bill.
The preamble and qualifying clause
were stricken out by unanimous con-
sent.
The language of the resolution as
adopted was construed in some quar-
ters as giving the President an I'M
qualified power of CONSUMPTION over
all national guardsmen. 1t reads:
Resolved, ythe Senate and the
House of Representatives of the Unit
ed States of American in Congress as
sembled that the President be, and he
is hereby authorized to draft into the
military services of the United States
any or all members of the National
Eunrl and of tho Orroniznd militia of
the several states, territories and the
district of Columbia and any and all
members of the National Guard and of
militia reserves to serve not exceed
ing three years unless sooner dis
charged"
Senator Clark said tonight his mo-
ton did not contemplate giving con-
scription power to the presidency and
he did not construc the amended res
olution as comforting much author
ity.

difficult to imagine that he is superior
to President Wilson.

difficult to imagine that he is superior
to President Wilson.
Americans without strong partisan.
ship feel i'll ut ease and very uncertain
as to the wisdom of elccting Mr.
Hughes President for the next foul
ycars-the most trying period in the
history Of the Nation.
Americans do not want war with
any nation and Presircnt Wilson has
tried to keep US out of trouble. He has
had to contend with not only the OBJ
strepcrous and provoking and some
times humilating activities of for
cign powers, but also with the in
ccSsant and irritating criticisms of the
frcnzicd jngocs of our own breed. He
may he deceived quite as often and as
astonishinEly as most of us are de-
cclvcd, buc he cannot be bullicd. lie
certainly has stood firm against being
bullicd into war.
In the present emergency Col. Roo
scvclt, Mr.. Hughes and others who are
leading in the opposition to President
Wilson'S reelection should be Amcri-
President Wilson's efforts to guide
cans first instead of specializing MS
partisans, and they should sustain
the countr" and prevent Il war of any
kind
President Wilson now heartily fa-
vors the preparedness which the pco-
pie ask for. But beyond the powerful
cotcric of jingocS the people do not
want war, and the common people will
surely work together to sustain Prcsi-
dent Wilson in the awful trial which
confronts the Nation.
Col. Roosevelt is Il partisan, Il great
politician, and Il still greater states
man If he were just common, ordi-
nary, rcd-bloodcd American he would
support President Wilson in this cri-
sis. lie would call for a Suuarc deal
for Il man who is doing his utmost.
unscliishly and periodically, to keep
the ship Of state in clear water.
Mr.. Hughes is wholly unlike Col.
Roosevelt, and il is impossible to i'm
aginc that he would stand by to help
Il fellow American who happened to
he on the other side of the political
fence as Il candidate against him for
the Presidency.
IL is Imaginable that Mr.. hughes
would rather be President himself
What has he said as To what he will
do, or try to do, to show that he cares
Il fig for the consequences of his can
didacy to the country? All that he is
trying for is to defeat President Will
son and we common folks don't think
that he should be defeated, and we
find it hard to reconcile ourselves to
the idea of Mr.. Hughes as Il successor
to President Wilson.
