WILSON KISSED THE HAND
RED WITH AMERICAN
BLOOD.

President Wilson explicitly
shows that the Carranzistas, not
once but repeatedly, made at
tacks on American towns, and
killed American citizens, and
mutilated them in September,
1915. Yet on October 10th, 1915,
less than a month later, this
same President Wilson, through
his same Secretary Of State,
formally announced to Carran-
za's agent that it was his pleas
ure" to take the opportunity ''of
extending recognition to the de
facto government of Mexico, of
which General Venustiano Car
rama is the chief executive"
President Wilson thus recog-
nized the government which, his
own Secretary of State declares,
had been less than a month pre-
viously engaged in repeated
assaults upon Americans, and in
the invasion of American soil,
the government at whose head
was General CarranZa, who, less
than two months previously, on
August End, 1915, had contempt
uously refused to pay any heed
to any representations of Presi-
dent Wilson on behalf of media
ton, saying that under no
consideration would permit in
reference in the internal affairs
of Mexico" President Wilson
did not merely kiss the hand
that slapped him in the face. He
kissed that hand when it was
red with the blood of American
men, women and children, who
had been murdered and mutilat-
ed with. as President Wilson,
through his Secretary of State,
says, ruthless brutality."-From
the speech of Col. Theodore
Roosevelt, delivered at Lewis
ton, Maine, in behalf of Charles
e. Hughes.

the diseased portion of the ear. There
is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness,
and that is by a constitutional remedy
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in

the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inhamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to it's normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases or
