Apparently Improved

When DIR. fMassie arrived the COVER
ror's condition had apparently inn
proved, and after remaining with him
for a time the physician left the room
to cali on another patient in the sani-
tarium. He was hurriedly recalled
when it was realized that the COVER
nor was dying, but he did not reach
the room until after death had re-
suited.
After ~conversing with Mrs. De Baca
fer several minutes, Governor DE
Eaca closed his eyes, and at first
those in the 10 believed that he
was dropping asleep. Instead Of
sleep, it was the final collapse.
Governor De Baca's death was due
to pernicious anemia, a malady which
it is now believed first assailed him
se,eral years ago. During the last
session of the state legislature, in
1915, his health was poor, and col
tinued so after his return to Las
Vegas. but serious symptoms did not
manifest themselves until last Nav.
AT that time he suffered a physical
breakdown, and was confined to his
bed for some time. 1t was not until
he went to st. Louis, in June, as one
OF the New Mexico delegates to the
Democratic national convention, that
his malady was diagnosed as per-
nicious anemia. This diagnosis was
made by a specialist there, and he
was placed under treatment, at first
III st. Louis and later at his home.
Hope Held Out
Governor De Baca's condition grad
uaDy grew worse, and when he came
to Santa Fe as a San Miguel delegate
to the Democratic state convention
his many friends and acquaintances
were shocked at his appearance. At
that time, however, his physicians
held out hope of being able to arrest
the disease, and when his nomination
for governor became practically GER
tain he consented to enter the politi-
cal ace
Medical science failed to stop the
rayages of the germs that were
destroying the red c~orpuscles in his
blood, and Governor De Baca gradu-
ally grew worse, and was able to take
but little part in the campaign that
made him the second state executive.
Following his election, he went to Los
Angeles in the hope that the lower al
titude would result in benefit, but
when he returned here for his inau-

Loss Of Appetite

Is the first signal Of disorder and
decay. The usual loss Of appetite
is often caused by functional distur-
Dances in the stomach. The stomach
fails to do the work required, the
appetite Is gone, and the body suf-

a stomach needs to ne cleaned and
