Why Suffer
From Migraine or
Sick Headache?

Dr.. Caldwell says that tthisexceedingiy
distressing disease does not shorten life,
but does not appear to be curable. suffer-
ers from this affliction are condemned to
undergo the periodical attacks every few
weeks until they are forty years OF age, after
which the attacts are less frequent, and
finally disappear entirely. Palliative meas
ures during the attack are oil that II IL
possible to suggest, while care in the diet IL
the best preventive measure. An attack
may often be prevented by taking two
antl-kamnia tablets when the frst symp-
toms appear. and one ant!-kamnia tablet
every two hours during the attack shortens
81, eases the pain and brings rest and quiet.
Anti-kamnia tablets may be obtained at
all druggists. Ask for AK Tablets. They
quickly relieve all Pain.

WASHINGTON. April 6,-Categori
cal denial 10y Secretary Lansing late
today was the official answer To per
sistent reports that the American
troops might be withdrawn from
Mexico shortly regardless of develop
ments in the hunt for villa. Both
Mr.. Lansing and Secretary Baker of
the war department indicated that
there was no present intention Of
changing the original orders given
General Funston.
Official comment WAS refused re-
garding statements credited to Con-
sui Garcia of the de facto government
at III Paso, that the punitive eNpedi-
ton had accomplished its ends in dis
pcrsng the outlaws and that he would
be glad to see 1t withdrawn. The mat
ter was given scant consideration by
high officials, who apparently deemed
IL an unauthorized expression 10y the
consul.
supplies Leave JuarcZ.
News from the border that a train
load of supplies shipped by private
firms had left Juarez today for Casas
Grandes and Pearson, where they will
be available to General Pershing,
caused satisfaction here. Although the
army authorities were not the actual
shippers IL was believed the practical
result would be the same.
Even without further action by or
concessions from CarranIa such use
oi the RAILWAYS, some officials think.
rtay meet the needs OF the United
States without causing cmharrass-
mcnt TO the oe facto government.
Secretary Baker indicated today
that in the present status OF the Mex
lean campaign the motor truck lines
from Columbus are to be the princi-
r;d artery for supplies with what
ever use may ne gained from the rail-
ways as merely supplementary. State
department dispatches during the daN
from Special Agent John l.. Rodgers
AZ Oueretaro told OF continuance of
negotiations with CarrauZa on the
railway question.
Interest Renewed.
Interest in political questions al
fecting tho Mexican situation was re-
rewed by receipt at the state depart
nCnt of correspondence between
Nogst Won Der Goltz. alleged German
spy and nd of Captain Won Paren, the
former German military attache. II
was understood some OF the cores
pondenCc dealt with activities of Won
Der GoltZ in Mexico.
Official attention also was gwen to
the reported revolution Of Felix Diaz
in southern Mexico. Information OF
the department of Justice locating
niaz in Mexico has beer laid before
the state department. The latter also
has uncontirmed rumors that DiaI
is securing both mer and supplies
from Guatemala.
The only dispatch received today
from General Funston Was regarding
distribution OF recent army recruits
among the border patrol.
Delivery of the first OF the eight
new aeroplsnes recently ordered for
Mexican service is expected next
