 I've been in bad health for a. long, long time, and last summer I took a trip to the North Carolina mountains in the hope of being cured, but when l came back I had an attack of the grippe and found myself in a worse fix than ever. I simply couldn't go at all and I couldn't get any rest at night, either, for I wasn't able to sleep.
 My stomach seemed to go back on me, too; for nothing would agree with me and I suffered from indigestion all
 
 or nourishment from my food, and my appetite was poor all the time. suf- fered untold misery and I didn't know what to do, for did not see how any, thing would help me when trip to the mountains and a rest had failed.

CARRANzA TRYING
TO CRUSH BANDITS

FL Paso, Tex, July 8.--Private re-
ports received here confirm statements
from Chihuahua that the de facto gov
eminent is making great effort to
annihilate the bandits of Southern Chi
huahua and Northern Durango.
1t is stated on reliable authority that
Carranza officials believe the elimina-
ton of Villistas at this time would
help to hasten the withdrawal of Cen
eral Pershing's army from Northern
chihuahua.
70 accomplish this result they are
throwing every ounce Of effort into the
running down of the marauders with
superior numbers and better arms and
ammunition.
They are believed to have good
chance for speedy victory.
The information received here, how
ever, is to the effect that the bandits
are fighting desperately, since they
disapprove of a possible agreement
between General Carranza and the
United States.
Reports are numerous and seem well
founded that Villa in person is lead
ing the bandits.
