place was twelve miles. Mexico City
was then nearly 200 years old, having
been founded in 1925 by a band or
Aztecs.
Cortez, forced from the capital after
imprisoning Montezuma, and nearly
running the city, returned two years
later and captured the place after a
seventy five day seige. The city was
then rebuilt, and remained under Span.

If Too Fat Get
More Fresh Air
Be Moderate in Your Diet And
Reduce Your Weight. Take
Oil of Korein.

Lack of fresh air it is said weakens
the oxygen carrying power of the blood,
the liver becomes sluggish, fat accumu-
lates and tae action Of many of the
vital organs are hindered thereby. The
heart action becomes weak, work is an
effort and the beauty Of the figure is
destroyed.
Fat put on by indoor life is unhealthy
and if nature is not assisted in throw
ing it off a serious case of obesity may
result.
When you feel that you are getting
too stout, take the matter in hand at
once. Don't wait until your figure has
become a joke and your health ruined
through carrying around burden Of
unsightly and unhealthy fat.
Spend as much time as you possibly
can in the open; breathe deeply, and
get from Central Pharmacy or any
druggist a box of oil of korein
capsules; take one after each meal and
. one before retiring at night.
Weigh yourself every few days and
keep up the treatment until you are
down to normal. Oil of korein is alb
soIutely harmless, is pleasant to take,
helps the digestion and even a few days
treatment has been reported to show a
noticeable reduction in weight.

Dispatch Intimates,
Hooper Is Arrested

Portland, Ore, June 3O--A telegram
from the San Francisco police that
"your number 261O is under arrest at
Joplin, No., charged with murder, " was
not fully explained by the Portland pO.
lice department today.
"Your number 2610, " is John Austin
Hooper, probably the most sensational
highwayman of decade. But in re,
sponse to a telegram, Joplin authori.
ties wired that they had no record of
Hooper's arrest. Local police thought,
however, that Hooper might have been
arrested under another name, and that
his real identity is unknown in Joplin
Hooper escaped from Jail at Grants
Pass, Ore, a year ago after his arrest
on a charge of holding up the Southern
Pacific station there. A dozen other sen.
sational holdups are laid at his door.

DYSPEPSIA
OF WOMEN
Special Treatment Required.

Many women suffer from a form of
indigestion or dyspepsia which does not
yield to ordinary treatment. While the
symptoms are similar to those of ordi-
nary indigestion, yet the medicines
usually prescribed do not restore the
patients normal condition.
There seems to be kind of dyspepsia
caused by arrangement Of the female
organism. While this appears to be the
same as ordinary indigestion it can be
relieved only by a medicine which, be-
sides acting as a stomach tonic, is good
for female ailments. Read what such
a medicine did for Mrs. Williams -

Today's Poem
Don't Let. the Soeg Go Out of

Don't Let. the Sosg Go Out of
Your Life
Don't let the song go out of your life;
Though it chance sometimes to flow
In minor strain, it will blend again
With the major tone, you know.
What though shadows rise to obscure
life's skies
And hide for time the sun;
They sooner will lift and reveal the
rift,
If you let the melody run.
Don't let the song go out of your life;
Though your voice may have lost
it's thrill,
Though the tremulous note should be
in the throat
Let it sing in your spirit still.
There is never pain that hides not
some gain,
And never a cup of rue
So bitter to sup that in the cup
Turks message of sweetness too.
Don't let the song go out of your
life;
All, it never would need to go
If, with thought more true and q
broader view,
We looked at this life below.
Oh, why should we moan that life's
springtime has flown,
Or sigh for the fair summer time :?
The autumn hath days filled with
paeans of praise,
And the winter hath bells that
chime.
Don't let the song go out of your life;
Let it ring in the soul while here,
And when you go hence it will follow
you thence,
And sing on in another sphere.
Then do not despond, and say that
the fond,
Sweet songs Of your life have
flown;
For if ever you knew a song that
was true,
It's music is still your own.

Citizen. His house joineth hard un-
to mine upon the North, and he an
noyeth me continually. He and his
Kids keep up a continual Rough
House, which greatly annoyeth US.
And he hath Daughters, and there
come to see them Young Men, who
sit with them on the Porch till Any
Old Time at Night, and they Laugh
and Raise Ned so that sleep is driven
from our eyes, and slumber from our
Eyelids. Yea, and when we look that
way we see things that vex our
Righteous Souls.

The City Courteous

The American city through its
leaders has come more and more to
appreciate that a community has a
reputation and a character as has
name for being clean and enter
prising and courteous, so a town is
known as clean and enterprising and
courteous. Only those concerned
lump the qualities and call it live
town. Just as a man is slovenly, sell
fish and boorish, so a town may be
slovenly, selfish and boorish and it is
called a dead town. One gets into
trouble trying to put finger on the
qualities that give character to a
town-or to a person either, for that
matter. So is the combination, the
result, indefinable. Some call it
spirit" and let it go at that. What
ever it is that makes up the spirit
of an nstitution-whether civic, re-
ligious, educational or business in
stitution-one of the basic ingredi-
ents is courtesy.
