MEXICAN PATRIOTISM

The word patriotism or its Spanish equivalent appar-
emily does not exist in Mexico Not long ago General
Murga was sent to relieve General Trevno who hard
pressed by Villa who had him penned up in Chihuahua.
Instead of going to Trevnos aid Murgia moved by
selfshness and desire to take Trevinos place COM
mander Of the de facto troops in Chihuahua, stopped
with his reinforcements for whole week only 70 miles
away from where Trevno for putting up real
fight. Murgia held back his troops until Treyino was
whipped and forced to abandon the town to Villa who
proceeded to loot it. Just the other day Colonel Coma
duran was sent to relieve General Gonzales at Juarez
Instead Of obeyng orders and turning over the command
to him. Gonzales turned his soldiers loose Comadurans
little company of no and they were forced to sur
render Their leader fled across the border to Ell Paso
and subsequent events show he did wise thing. Con
zaes made demand General Bell that the colonel be
turned over to him. This Bell refused to do saying the
matter was political civil and out Of his jurisdic
ton General Gonzales then sent word that hereafter
he would encourage and aid deserters from the American
army in every way He ALSO asserted that he wanted
Comaduran, so he could hang him for stealing public
funds as he would not waste ammunition on him. All of
which shows the Mexican idea of government and of
patriotism. The whole and single aim of all Mexican
leaders seems to be self aggrandizement

the presumption is that the baby probably only partly

mystery but the question is how to get rid of the

that caemen take the value from the brand by venting
which is placing the same brand in another place.

GLASS OF SALTS
CLEANS kidneys
If Your Back Is Aching or Bladder
Bothers, Drink Lots of Water
and Eat Less Meat.

When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore. don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean, by flushing them
with a mild, harmless salts which re-
moves the bodys urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys is to
filter the blood. In "a hours they strain
from 1t 500 grains of acid and waste.
SO we can readily understand the vital
Importance of keeping the kidneys
active. -..t
+, Drink lots of water-you can't drink
too much; also get from any pharma-
;eist about four ounces of Jad Salts;
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast each morning
for a few days and your kidneys will
act fne. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
juice combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to clean and
stimulate clogged kidneys; also to
neutralize the acids in urine so ii no
longer is a source of irritation, thus
ending bladder weakness!
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
lure; makes a delightful effervescent
Whitewater drink which everyone
should take now and then to keep their
kidneys clean and active. Try this,
also keep up the water drinking, and
no doubt you will wonder what be-
came of your kidney trouble and back

ISAAC CANS LECTURES
ON BUSINESS ETHICS
Manager Of Saks & Co. Addresses
Western High School Students on
Morals in the Trade World.

Isaac Cans. vice president of the Re-
tail Merchants Association. and mana
ger Of Saks & Co, spoke yesterday be-
fore Western High School students on
Business Ethics" The speaker gave
general description of store manage
ment and business methods and then
Centered his address upon the ethics of
business. That integrity in advertising
is worth striving for was one Of his
statements.
Here as in all other business opera
tions of the present day the proverb
concerning honesty being the best policy
still obtains" he said at pays to ad-
vertise what you have for sale honestly"
Mr.. Cans spoke OF the "one-price" sys-
tenn now in use, contra sting 1t with the
old method of buying and selling. The
old method he said, resulted In useless
haggling and bargaining and perhaps
fostered opportunities for fraud. People
usually know they are getting their
moneys worth in purchasing under the
''one-price" method, he declared.
Mr.. Cans explained advertising meth
DDS, the handling Of customers and the
general organization of the department

TO DARKEN HAIR
APPLY sage TEA
A Few Applications Of Sage Tea and
Sulphur Brings Back Its Vigor,
Color. Gloss and Youthfulness.

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea with sulphur added. will
turn gray, streaked and faded hair
beautifully dark and luxuriant. Just
a few applications will prove a reve-
lation If your hair is fading, streaked
or gray. Mixing the Sage Tea and
Sulphur recipe at home, though, Is
troublesome. An easier way is to get
a 5O-cent bottle of Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound at any drug store
all ready for use This Is the old
time recipe improved by the addition
OF other ingredients.
While wispy. gray. faded hair Is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our
youthful appearance and attractive
ness. BY darkening your hair with
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound,
no one can tell, because it does 1t so
naturally. so evenly. You just dampen
q sponge or soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taking
one small strand at a time; by morn
ing all gray hairs have disappeared,
and. after another application or two,
your hair becomes beautifully dark,
glossy, soft and luxuriant.
This preparation is a delightful toll
ct requisite and is not intended for the
cure, mitigation or prevention of dis
ease.-Adv

inches, according to accepted army stand

Broadway the distance between them is

Bowling Green to Thirty-fourth street,
Broadway cars of the stepless type pass

greater than ten inches and half.
