son today began the draft of his reply to
the latest note from Carranza demanding
withdrawal of American troops, or eXpla.
nation of why the United States should keep
its troops on Mexican soil
II is the Administrations present inten-
tion to have Its reply In Carranza's hands
before the end of the week-perhaps before
Thursday-to forestall as much as possible
expected adverse criticism of the Presi-
dents Mexican policy at the Chicago con-
ventlon.
With the personal help of Secretary
Lansing, 1t is said in high Administration
circles. the President might complete
rough draft in time for Cabinet considera-
tion tomorrow.
That the troop withdrawal suggestion
would be refused seemed certain That the
refusal will convey to the de facto Govern
ment officials finalty of decision in this re-
spect seemed also a certainty.
But the answer will be couched in such
terms as to leave the CarranZa Government
ample opportunity to keep itself right" be-
fore the Mexican public.
Completely peaceful conditions below the
border. the note will state, must prevail
with some degree of certainty that whole
sale banditry and lawlessness, and raids on
the American side cannot recur.
Private but apparently authentic advices

hcials as we'll as consular and private ad
vices TO the State Department, which re-
count unrest and some anti-American feel
ing, will be cited as explanation of the
necessity for continued presence of Amer

NO MORE BACKACHE
NO MORE MISERY

Hundreds of people have been relicv-
ed of the agonies caused by weak, dis
eased or cloggedup kidneys by using
SOlvaX, the new remedy that quickly
reaches the source of all kidney com
plants.
If you suffer with pains in your back
and sides or have any signs of kidney
or bladder trouble such as rheumatic
pains, puffy swelhngs under the eyes
or in the feet and ankles, if you are
nervous, tired and rundown, or bother
ed with urinary disorders, SolvaX will
quickly and surely relieve you of your
misery.
SolvaX is probably the most potent
remedy yet devised for ridding the sys-
tenn of uric acid and driving out all
the poisonous impurities which cause
such troubles 1t neutralizes, dissolves
and makes the kidneys sift out all the
uric acid and poisons left by the blood,
and renders the kidneys and urinary
organs clean, vigorous and healthy.
Many of the best druggists say that
no medicine ought to be paid for un-
less it does the user some good. Solvax
therefore sells under a positive guar
antee to quickly relieve the worst cases
of kidney trouble or your money re-
funded. Try Solvax today and if you
cannot see and feel a decided change
for the better just 60 to the druggist
from whom you bought it and tell him
you want your money back and he will
return it without question, This is the
strongest argument that can be offered
in behalf of any medicine. Solvax Is
sold in Salem and vicinity by Daniel j.
Fry and other leading dealers.

POVERTY MAY BE A BLESSING

The question is often asked Why is it that sons Of
rich men are so often poor specimens Of humanity?
The question is not hard to answer.

that aroused and developed what best within them
The sons without necessity for such struggle leave un-
done that which alone can make man.

ever so poor if he have health and energy and noble
