TO REVIEW GUARDSMEN
General Bliss on Border to Get First
Hand Information.

San Antonio, Tex, July 14.--I have
come to get a first hand view of the
national guard organizations that are
being stationed along the border said
Maj. Cen Tasker H. Bliss. of the gem
eral staff, up his arrival here from
Washington.
The secretary of war wanted the
sort of information that one gets from
a personal inspection" continued Cen
eral Bliss, land he sent me to talk
things over with General Funston and
visit the various points at which the
national guard regiments are stationed
on a general tour of inspection. After
some days here, l shall go first to
Brownsville and after that make my
way along the concentration points
along the Rio Grande, Laredo, Eagle
Pass, FL Paso and probably Columbus,
Douglas and Nogales.
II have no task of organization for
the national guard into divisions, nor
anything like that. General Funston
will attend to all such matters without
my assistance"

Colonel Says He Didn't Back
Out of Moose Party.
'sIt Was Progressive Party That
Deserted U.s." Said He.

Detroit, July 14.-Theodcre Roose-
welt. in a letter to w. H. Hill of De-

the national Progressive party but
that the national Progressive party
deserted him.
Hill was a candidate for congress-
man at large on the Bull Moose ticket
in 1912. He is close personal friend
of the colonel. In writing to the for
mer president, Mr.. Hill said he did not
approve of the action of the recent
Michigan Progressive conference at
Jackson, when some speakers dubbed
Roosevelt a traitor to his party.
Colonel Roosevelt's reply is as fol-

To look ones best and feel ones
best is to enjoy an inside bath each
morning to flush from the system the
previous days waste, sour fermenta-
tions and poisonous toxins before it is
absorbed into the blood. Just as coal,
when it burns, leaves behind a certain
amount of incombustible material in
the form OF ashes, so the food and
drink taken each day leave in the ali
mentary organs certain amount of
indigestible material, which if not
eliminated, form toxins and poisons
which are then sucked into the blood
through the, very ducts which are in
tended to suck in only nourishment to
sustain the body.
If you want to see the glow Of
healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
arising, a glass of hot water with a
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate
in it, which is a harmless means Of
washing the waste material and toxins
from the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels, thus cleansing, sweetening and
purifying the entire alimentary tract,
