USING UP VITALITY

The struggle for success uses up
vitality in America at a greater rate
than any other thing. Fighting to keep
away from the poor-house we shorten
the distance to the grave.
Especially in middle age, at forty or
thereabouts, do we become impressed
with the necessity of laying up COM
petence and with that feeling in time
comes worry, nervous breakdown, neu-
rasthenia. The entire system feels the
result of the nervous strain. The diges-
ton resents things that it accepted be-
fore, the heart palpitates on slight ex-
ertion, the muscles of the back ache
after a days work. Your blood is
thinner and not SO bright red.
When these things occur, whether
you are fourteen or forty, you need q
tonic. DR.. Williams Pink Pills suit
most peoples need because they are
non-alcoholic and they really build up
the blood and strengthen the nerves.
They are useful for growing children
and for men and women whose nervous
energy has been overtaxed.
Your druggist sells DIR. Williams
Pink Pills or they will be sent BY mail,

POLICE SLAYER
FACING THE CHAIR
Northumberland Says That
the Application Does Not
Appeal to Him

Emphatic declaration against appli-
cations made for clemency for men
who shoot down officers of the law
was given to-day at the session of the
State Board of Pardons by Lieutenant
Governor McClain. chairman of the
board, during the hearing of the case
of Jacob Miller, sentenced to be cleo
trocuted for killing two policemen in
Philadelphia. The application was
presented by the Rev. Father Cowle,
who is connected with st. Francis de
Sales Church.
The board will clear its two-day
calendar late to-day and announce de-
cisions tonight.
The Dauphin, Cumberland and
Perry cases were presented last night,
an evening session being held for the
first time. The board heard some in
teresting cases in which laymen ap-
peared in place of lawyers and in one
case was informed by counsel for a
convict that, contrary to the usual
custom. he was in excellent health.
In Warren county case it was
charged that the man who had killed
the rascal who had broken up his
home had acted in a premeditated
manner. Mr. McClain observed that
premeditation that protects the home
is not so Objectionable as the man who
made the argument tried to make it
appear.

FiUe Americans Hide
in Mountains Fearing to
Make Way to Border

Ell Paso, June 81. - Five Americans
arc in hiding in the mountains in the
vicinity of Parral in Southern Chihua-
hua, fearing to attempt to make their
way to the border, because of the feel
ing of the native populace, according
to reports reaching here to-day
With the exception of these five,
the exodus of Americans from Chihua-
hua was practically complete to-day
with the arrival of the eight remain
ing members of the colony in Chihua-
hua City. All of them told stories of
anti American sentiment.
Much interest was aroused among
El Pasoans, many of whom have large
holdings in Mexico, in dispatches re-
ceiVed from Mexico City at the local
Mexican consulate. These said, in
substance, that a decree had been is
sued by the de facto government hold
ing that any foreigner acquiring real
estate in Mexico, either by purchase
or contract, must renounce first his
allegiance to his native country and
register himself as a Mexican citizen.
IT further ordered that any person
seeking to transfer his property to a
foreigner must obtain permission from
tho proper authorities.
Sentiment on the border is tense and
Carranza's reception of the American
reply to his latest note is anxiously
awaited. Persistent rumors were cur
rent again in Ell Paso that scouting
/ patrols of General Pershing's expedi-
! tionary command had been attacked
south of Namiquipa by Carranza
/ forces but General George Bell, Jr.
commanding the military district, said
nothing IN dispatches he had received
tended to support these rumors.
