The Mexican situation, which he cIassed
as dangerous and shameful, and prepard-

Indigestion May Be
Due to Constipation
Neglect of Important Function
May Seriously Impair.
The Health.

There are many people who believe
they suffer from indigestion when their
discomfort really is due TO a constipated
condition.
Bloat, with its attendant mental de-
preston, sick-headache, the belching of
sour stomach gases, etc, are frequently
due to inaction of the bowels. Relieve
the congestion and the trouble usually
disappears. The use of cathsrtics and
purgatives should be avoided, however
these shock the system unnecessarily
and, at best, their effect is but tempo
rary. A mild laxative is far preferable
The compound of simple laxative
herbs known as DR.. Caldwelrs Syrup
Pepsin and sold in drug stores for fifty
cents bottle, is highly recommended.
Mr.. Benz. Bassin, 900 Madison ST.,
Gary, Ind, thinks DR.. Caldwelps Syrup
Pepsin wonderful medicine; for four
years he had a severe case of indiges-
ton and constipation before trying Dr.
Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which he is
glad to recommend to all who suffer
with stomach and bowel trouble.

CONFEDERATES EULOGIZE
GEMS. JACKSON AND LEE
Representative Sisson Hits Prepared
ness Plans Says Big Army
Could Be Raised Early.

The memories of Robert E. Lee and T.
]. c'StonewalfO Jackson were eulogized
In words OF eloquence Wednesday night
by Representative Thomas U. Sisson, Of
Mississippi, at the annual reunion OF the
Confederate Veterans Association of the
District at the First Baptist Church. Mr.
Sisson declared Lee and Jackson the
greatest men the country had ever pro-
duced.
In voicing opposition to preparedness
Representative SissOn asserted that the
country could not be made strong by a
large standing army or by soldiers who
enlisted to protect the country for $3.50.
He declared that no greater army than
the Confederate one ever existed, and il
was formed quickly from the farms and
the offices.
Songs of the South and songs that were
popular in the army of the South, march
ing songs and campfire songs, formed the
program for the musical entertainment.
Capt. Fred Beall, commander OF the as
sOciation, presided.

EASY TO CAPTURE U. S.
PORTS, WEAVER STATES
Chief of Coast Artillery Tells House
Committee Hostile Fleet Could
Have Own Way.

Under present conditions the cities OF
New York and San Francisco could be
pounded to bits by a hostile naval
heet," and the way thus opened for a
landing, according to Gen. L. M. Weay-
er. chief of the Coast Artillery of the
War Department, who appeared before
the House Committee on Military At
fairs yesterday.
Gen. Weaver admitted that the guns
now mounted in the approaches to New
York and San Francisco were lacking in
the range sufficient to hold off the high
power guns mounted op modern naval
vessels, and from a military point of
view he described the situation at New
York and San Francisco as "emergent.''
The chief of the Coast Artillery told
the committee that steps were now be-
ing taken by the government to get
New York and San Francisco in a bet
ter state Of preparedness to ward off an
enemy, II attacked. He thought that
with the completion of defenses now
building the two ports could be success
fully defended against a powerful enemy.
''At Far Rockaway Beach and San
Francisco" said Gen. Weaver, I'VE are
planning to install sixteen-inch guns that
will command every approach and will
equal In range any naval gun now on
board any battleship afloat. While we
are waiting for those guns to be built
we plan to mount on high elevation car
riages, with a long range, forty sur
plus twelve-inch guns now at Sandy
Hook These will be installed as soon
as possible, and will temporarily relieve
the situation. 1t must be taken into
consideration also that shore guns have
an advantage over naval guns of eight
to one in accuracy"

New York. Jan. 2o.-I went to movie

It's just as the sS7s magazine articles
And Sunday specials describe 1t.
Except more tiresome.
They do everything twenty-seven times.
And wait between the times
There Is more watchful waiting In a
movie studio than there has been about
Mexico.
A disnifed man with white whiskers
And a silk hat
Was looking on with the rest Of US.
They called him doctor"
An actress sat down beside him
And said:
Listen here, doctor.

Then she told him about the pain in
her side.
And the full story Of her Interior

his whiskers. -.-.- -. .-.-..

She said:

For playing doctor.

That all doctors don't have whiskers
Also that you can't take sixty cents
Out of a dollar
And make change
With one coin.
And I'd like to ask them
How a man can write letter
\ page long
And seal 1t In an envelope
In two seconds?
1t makes you dizzy to watch them.
Also why do starving girls
Always wear black alpaca?
And people hide
In plain sight?

Where they drank lots Of beer,

2A.Year Old Gninea.

G.. M. Siniard doubtless has one of
the oldest guinea hens in North Caro-
lima. He says he bought her when
She was n year old from B. Burrell
and that he has been the owner of
the fowl for % years.
AS to the domestic habits and eco
nomic status of this ga~llinaceous
fowl, Mr.. Siniard said that she was a
regular producer of the fine specimen
of fruit for which her family is pc
euliarly fitted until the past summer,
when senility, he thought, was the re-
suit OF a cessation in her egg laying
~propensities. She has lost weight and
is feeble and shriveled and her mus
cal qualities are waning.
The hen although far past he1
allotted span of life, is dear to the
Siniard family and though her use.
tfulness is a thing of the past, she is
petted and pamDered and receives
at all times most due consideration
