ROAD TO HEALTH is

part Of all sickness today can be avoid.
ed by keeping the kidneys working
properly.
Most any reliable druggist in this
vicinity can probably tell YOU of many
well-known people whom Solvax, the
standard kidney remedy, has restored to
health often after they have tried
many other methods of treatment with
little or no benefit.
There are hundreds of peonle who
were not the least bit surprised when
they read awhile ago that Daniel 7.
Fry is selling Solvax on a guarantee
to refund the money in case it did not

We doubt if any other kidney remedy
has made such large percentage of

owners are perfectly safe in standing

ARE AMERICANS FINANCING REVOLUTION?

The indications are there is another revolution hatch
ing in Mexico to be correct in this country for use
that war ridden republic. General Funston has been
notified by the department that such is the case and
that munitions have been and being smugged
the border for the use of the reyolutiOnists.
tits to be hoped this is mistake and that peace which
has apparently forgotten that country may at last find
home there. While Villa is at least temporarily obter
ated and Carranza is seemingly getting in full control
the spirit of revolution still sways the bandit class and
the whole country is in terror Of that element
There has been for a long time pretty well based
suspicion that the money to finance all these Mexican
revolutions came from Americans who had to grind
There was time when the mining magnates of the
Pacific coast had their fingers pretty deep in this pie and
stirred up revolution in some other of the Mex
lean states in order to get concessions from those tenn
pOraiy in power and get them in such shape that their
successors had to recognize their acts or get into trouble
with this country There is well grounded suspicion in
circles that Standard Oil and The Pearce Oil Com
pany of England have been putting up the Snews of war;
one for Caranza and the other for Villa
Whether there is any truth in these rumOrs and
suspicious one knows definitely but the ease with
which any Mexican conspiratOr get credit and coin
in this country for any kind of revolution gives color to
the stories
1t is claimed that Standard Oil owns concessions in
Mexico that are worth now $500000000 and which, if
the United States interviewed and finally took over
Mexico, would be worth ten times that sum.
If this is true it would account for the trfng diff
culte anyone wanting to start revolution beyond the
of the necessary supplies.
The latest story that plan was perfected for the
blowing up of the battleshp Kentucky at Vera Cruz but
short time ago, for the sole purpose of getting this
country into with Mexico. There are no MeXcanS
omater how much they may be fighting each other
but would bury their quarrel and unite in fighting the
United States if should invade their country it
sarly follows that influence outside of Mexico is
behind such moves and behind them for selfish purposes
1t natural to suppose that those who would most benefit
by such they who putting up the necessary
coin to bring it about
In this connection it might be added that while there
has been in some newspapers bitter criticism of the adj
mnisraton for not ayengng the "horlibe murders of
Americans" that the number of such murders in the
years 1913 to 1915 inclusive was 76 while during the
previous three years under President Taft and when that
country not nearly badly demoralized the number
killed was AZ.
Camanza is doing good work in furnishing the murder
and is demonstrating that President Wilson is follow
ing the right course in permitting the unhappy MeXicans
to work out their own salvation

FRITZ ERFISLFR.

Among the older and time-honored
forms in music that the ultra-moderns
are seeking to cry out Of court is the
concerto with its three movements,
the first long and deliberately develop
ed. the second songful and the third
merry. usually in a rondo form. The
doom of the concerto has been pre-
dicted chiefly because of its proper
ties of display which. it is said by
some, are no longer a. successful
means of holding modern audiences.
Fritz Kreisler, master violinist and
master musician. who appears at The
Playhouse tomorrow evening. repudi'
ates this charge with emphasis. Tee
Beethoven and the Brahms concertos
are equally great to Mr.. Kreisler; he
finds in them the finest that there Is
in the literature. But the concerto
most grateful to the violinist is In
Kreisler's opinion, the Mendelssohn
