Small encouragement In West

frage to all citizens. The officials at
state headquarters OF the West Nir-
ginia Equal Suffrage association have
Kept an eagle eye upon the situation
and have found no evidence that
there is any desire among either men
or women within the state to organ
ize in opposition to the proposition.
But there is opposition outside the
state against the proposed amend

the people within West Virginia
would not array themselves against
such popular proposal. have under

that the state campaign committee
learns that these agitaSbrs have met
with little or no sympathy in the

Prof. Alexander McAdie OF Harvard.
In an article in the Geographical Re-
view, describes some of the recent ex-
periments in the upper air performed
by sounding balloons. The atmosphere
has. roughly, two layers. tho lower
called the troposphere and the upper
the stratosphere. Tho strongest winds
are found Just below the stratosphere,
and 1t would seem that pressure
changes originate in this region.
The stratosphere is highest over the
equator and lowest over the poles. but
It's height varies with the seasons. AT

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

| Much Of the discomfort which com
monty receives the name "dyspep-
sia'' and which harnesses people in
middle and late adult life has had it's
origin in childhood. Many child
who was always able to eat any
thing''is now grown into man or a
woman who needs carefully to watch
at every meal to avoid articles that
destroy intestinal and mental peace.
We pay for everything We get some
how, somewhere, and sometime. Flu
ture care in diet is one form Of pay
ment for early carelessness.
Speedy meals and gulping is ano-
Their cause of indigestion. While the
habit is frequently begun in childhood
it can be broken in later life. Chewing
the food is the beginning of the di-
gestiye process. AS one physician
says to his patients, it is the only
one of the steps in digestion which
man can control. And yet how few
intelligent people there are who thus
control the mastication of their food.
The average person whose work or
play does not create thirst, does
not drink as much water as is needed
to properly flush the intestinal tract
and rid the body of it's wastes. Ano-
Their physician bluntly says that the
individual who doesn't drink an album
dance of water with which to wash
the insides Of his intestines is as
dirty as the individual who doesn't
battle his body or clean his teeth.
Sluggish bowels are responsible for
much of the indisposition from which
people suffer. Millions of dollars have
been accumulated by makers of So
called "tonics' the only virtue of
which lies in some cathartic remedy
they contain. 1t is far better to
take drugs for constipation than to
remain constipated but it would be
far better to overcome the disorder
by natural means. Drinking larger
quantities of water and eating more
stringy vegetables furnish two econo-
mical and efficient natural methods
Of overcoming constipation.
The mixture of a little human
brains will be found to improve the
planning, cooking, and eating of
meals.

able Troops Summoned.

FL Paso, Tex, Nov. 28.-Villa is
moving northward from chihuahua
City, according to dispatch from
General Trevino received by General
Gonzales at Juarez.
General Gonzales was ordered to
concentrate his forces at Juarez.
A private message coming over the
same route adds that not only is Villa
proceeding north, but he is in control
of Chihuahua City.
General Trevino, this message said
has abandoned the capital and is pro
ceeding southwark. General Trevino
said that after effecting a junction
with General Murguia he would re-
turn and recapture Chihuahua.
The message from General Trevino
was sent in code from Sauz by way of
Ojinaga, opposite the Texas town OF
Preside, where it was relayed.
1t said, according to Carranza Off
Gals, that Villa was moving north and
ordered the detached garrisons along
this section of the frontier and on the
Mexico Northwestern line to concen-
trate in Juarez. The message, they
added, spoke of this as the fifth day
of Villas attacks.
The countenances Of the civil and
military men in the Juarez headquar-
ters disclosed clearly the seriousness
of the news.
1t is understood there are about
500 men, most of them infantry, in or
near Juarez.
Telegraphic communication was still
open with Sauz, about twenty-six
miles above Chihuahua City, the mill
tary men said. They protested con-
siderable anxiety about the Carranza
garrison there.
General Murguia with his large
forces had been expected daily to
come to the rescue of the besieged
city.
