TELLS OF HELP
GIVEN HUSBAND
Mrs. John Larson Warmly Praises
Tanlac for Relief Helpmate
Gained.

Minneapolis, MIMI, August 3d.
''Tandac did more for my husband in
a month than all other medicines did
in six years." Mrs. John Larson, a
we'll known Minneapolis woman of
31O1 Sixteenth avenue, said on July H..
"Mr. Larson suffered from stomach
trouble in the form of Indigestion" she
continued. Nervousness also bothered
him and his system was in a general
run down condition. It had been this
way for more than six years. He could
eat but very little and was annoyed by
gas formations. He couldn't rest well
at night and had become very weak.
"My husband feels like himself once
again since he has taken two bottles
Of Tanlac. His appetite is good and
the indigestion no longer bothers him.
The nervousness has been completely
banished and he's gaining strength
rapidly. Because of Mr. Larson's re-
lief I want to recommend Tanlac."
Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is
Especially beneficial for stomach, liver
and kidney trouble, catarrhal COM
plants, rheumatism, nervousness,
sleeplessness, loss of appetite and the
! like and has proven fine reconstruct
tive tonic.
Tanlac is now being specially intro
duced and explained in Princeton at
the c.. A. Jack Drug Co.

Slnbad of Indiana was getting by all

mate over the drill grounds, having

Bootblacks' Ewes Open.

Even the Mexican bootblacks who
visit the camp to pick up few dimes
by shining the officers boots are ia
miliar with everything going on in the
camp.
Lieutenant Colonel Charles Danforth
Of the Second Minnesota regiment quiz
zed a couple of the bootblacks, and he
learned the boys had knowledge of the
exact number of troops in camp, the
exact strength of the various arms Of
the service, the number of horses, mules
and guns and even the number Of pa-
tients in the field hospitals. 1t is diff
cult to beat the Mexican spy system.

Cleanup Day.

Members Of the Indiana national
guard in camp at LlanO Grande, Tex,
have not been able to wash or change
their clothes as often as would be done
otherwise. Therefore, in order to have
the men put up their best appearance
for inspection, a general order was
given making one afternoon time for
cleanup. While the men were obtain
Ing that virtue next to goodness their
apparel III some cases was novel. Some
wore blue denims" Tor overalls and
jumpers, others wore nOndescript ma

Il pleasant smile and pair OF shoes.
The camp rcsembled a cooperative
Chinese laundry. The usual Llano
Grandc's serene landscape was broken
by crowds Of soldiers bonding over
buckets. tubs and WaShbOardS, TRYING
to make old clothes look like new and

of stretching clotheslines. Uniforms,

The men have been limited as to
clothing, owing to the fact that there is
shortage of uniforms in the quarter

Why He Joined Army.

A yOungSter who said he was attend
ing school at the University of Mime
sofa stood at a street corner and la
mented his lot. He declared a willing
ness to fight for his country and to sus-
tain the constitution of the state and
nation, but he was not strong for ditch
digging and street cleaning
Il did not have to come here to learn
how to dig post holes and make ditch
es," the youngster declared. 81 could
learn that at home. And I never see
the regulars doing that kind of work."
Just across the street and about fifty
feet away was squadron Of the Third
cavalry pulling weeds, cleaning out
cutters, making drains, and four of
them were driving mule teams scrap
ing the mud off the street.

ed to broad shouldered young fellow.
"Oh, it's all in the game" he laugh
ed, holding an armful of weeds.
But you didn't come here to do that
kind of work. You came here to fight"
was suggested once more.
Maybe so,' he laughed again. "but
it's all in the days work. I know that
when we are pulling these weeds and
cleaning the cutters and doing this
kind Of work we are protecting our
selves against sickness. especially
against malaria, and making our camp
more healthful. 1t may look unsoldier-
like, but really it is the foundation of
making a soldier fit
You talk like a college man." said
the correspondent, to draw him out.
Yes, sir; graduated at the Univer

Maybe so, sir. But things didn't 20

TEXANS WELCOME
WHO PROTECT
One Judge Says They Feared
Invasion at Any Moment
Prior to Arrival of
State Troops.
2. SILVERS of Mercedes, Tex,

- p. SILVERS of Mercedes, Tex,
former county judge and one
~ of the men who converted
the Rio Grande valley from
a wilderness into a place of successful
cultivation, has told why the troops
came to this part Of the border: And
this explanation shows that President
Wilson, when he said the troops were
not there for drill or show, but to pro-
tect the country, knew what he was
talking about. But for the arrival of
the troops more than $4,000 Mexican
soldiers would have invaded the Unit
cd States and ravaged the Rio Grande
valley.
1--WE had been having bandit raids
and were calling for soldiers to protect
us Silvers said, land finally we got
some. There were perhaps 5000 sol
diers in the valley, so scattered at diff
ferent points that there were only a
few in any one place. When Villa
raided Columbus, n. NJ, we had posi-
tive information that another such raid
was contemplated and that the Objec-
tive point was Brownsville. Many Of
the citizens of that place sent their
families away, and preparations were
made to defend the town. The situa-
ton was critical. Not only were the
Villa bandits threatening us, but Car
rama was massing his soldiers on the
border for the purpose of invading
Texas. He had about $4,000 troops
al hn Toto
morOs, opposite Brownsville, to Rey-
nOsa, and between that point and Car
mage troop trains Of soldiers were
seen moving. These troops were I'M
der command Of General Nafarrate
whose hatred of Americans is notOri-
GUS, and a crisis was imminent. Gen
eral Funston, knowing the conditions,
rushed the state troops to the border
and that is why they have been strung,
along the Rio Grande valley. 1t was
to stop an invasion OF the United
States by Mexico and the presence of
the troops is what is keeping peace on
the main border even now.
There are plenty Of troops to pre-
vent any attack from the main side by
Carranza army. Now that the troops
are here they are being drilled and
acclimated and put into condition for
service, if needed"
When the troops left Fort Harrison
they were ticketed for Brownsville,
but at Springfield, Mo-, they were Or
dered to Mercedes, and the outcome
of it was that the small number of
regulars at Mercedes was not enough
to prevent an invasion, and the state
troops were hurried there for fighting
purposes If the MeXicans made an at
tack.

As to Eating,

According to Major Austin of the
state of Washington troops, a few rules
of diet can be laid down which if ad-
hered to will enable every man to keep
himself in the best Of physical condi-
ton:
First.-Eat only at mess time, three
times day, and nothing but issued "a
ton or authorized substitute therefor
prepared and served with the mess.
Second.-Keep all organs of the body
functioning normally
Third.-Do not undertake severe bod
lily eXertion Immediately before or i'm
mediately following a meal.
FOurth.-DO not drink large uuanti-
ties of cold water when heated by ex-
ertion, only small quantities. Do not
drink ice water in large quantities
ever, only swallow or two at time
and not at all if heated. The same
rule applies to other cold drinks.
Fifth.-DO not overeat. Too little is
less harmful than too much. Stop eat
ing before there is an uncomfortable
sense OF fullness, no matter how appe
thing the mess may be- Extras should
be as substitute for, not an addition
to- the articles Of the regular mess.
Sixth.-Keep the mouth and teeth
well cleaned.
Too many rules lead to confusion. Ii
these few are followed and all the care
which they imply carried out the train

Tattoo Artists Busy,

"A professional tattoo man has set up
a booth on one Of the principal streets
OF Laredo and is kept busy day and
night decorating the persons of the
guardsmen with bleeding hearts, skulls
and crossbones, pistols and daggers,
snakes, female heads and figures and
the first names of sweethearts to whom
the tattooee intends to remain true
through life. With patience worthy of
a better cause the men submit to the
tedious pricking of the needle and the
injection of the colored inks into their
epidermis.
