AMERICAN DRUG
Store TO Open
in MEXICO CITY
(By The Associated lress.l

MEXICO CITY, Aug. 16.--The
conversion of the "House of Tiles"
into typical American drug store
marks the passing of one OF the most
palatial and unique structures ever
erected in this city of interesting
buildings. Many persons ~ the Unit
cd States remember the hoase as the
Jockey club, the most exclusive and
aristocratic place of its kind in the
republic, put for the past few years
II has stood or prominent dcwntown
corner, a bleak, decrepit structure,
whose shiny and gaudy exterior Of tile
gave evidence of its former glorv.
Some time soon it will open for bus
mess as drug store.
The date when the buildings foun-
dations were laid is lost in obscurity,
but il is though that it was started
about 1896. Later it came into the
possession Of Don Luis de Rivero, a
man of varied career, who was re-
sponsible for its exterior coat Of tiles
These latter are of blue, yellow and
WHlNts AipVi ilSii hNSiEif anu Ntit
made by artisans brought from Tala-
vera, Spain, by the Dominican friars
in the sixteenth century. They were
modelled in special ceramic factory
at Puebla, about seventy-five miles
distant, and the completion Of this
decoration was the occasion for a
public celebration.
The family Of Don Luis dc Rivero,
who later became the Count of Ori-
zaba, remained in possession of the
house until the time of the Inflated
Emperor Macmillan. Its last occu-
pant was a sister of the then Count
de Orizaba. upon whom the emperor
conferred the tile of Marques de
Ciria.
Later the structure was taken over
by the Jockey club and converted into
sumptuous club house. Stories of
fabulous sums won and lost at its
gaming tables persist to this day. Stir

fire AT PHARR
BURNS A LARGE
PART OF TOWN
Fire Department from Mission
Comes to Aid and Pre-
vents General Disaster.
SOLDIER Is INJURED
Three Other Persons Hurt in
Fighting Flames.

The Phelps garage, five store build
ings in the Mexican quarter and a
couple Of restaurants were destroyed
by fire last night at Pharr, and it
was only by hard work that the en-
tire Mexiquita section of the city
was prevented from burning. The
fire started in the Phelps garage,
which was completely destroyed, to-
gether with all its equipment and sew
eral autos. From the garage the fire
spread rapidly to adjoining store
buildings, occupied by Mexican stores,
and in short time the entire block
was a roaring mass of flames.
The Pharr fire department found
the water supply and pressure Who'll
ly inadequate to fight the rapidly
spreading flames and calls for as
sistance were sent to adjoining
towns. The Mission fire department
and large detachment of soldiers
from the post at McAllen promptly
responded, and it was largely through
the work of the chemical engine from
Mission and the assistance rendered
by the soldiers that the citizens of
Pharr were finally able to get the
flames under control. Private Brown
Of the Fourth cavalry, stationed at
McAllen, was severely injured when
he was overcome by heat while work
ing on the roof of one of the build
ings and fell to the ground. He
was Immediately taken to the hos
pital at McAllen, and late message
from that place states that though
his injuries are serious, he win re-
cover. Three or four other persons
were injured, but more seriously, ac-
cording to reports received here.
The fire started about eight o'clock
and soon the flames broke through
the garage and their spread was rap
i'd. At 10 o'clock it was feared the
depot could not be saved, and it
would have been destroyed if the
Mission fire department had not sue
ceeded in checking the spread in that
direction by the use of the chemicals.
The fire was working in the direction
Of the cotton gins and the oil station,
and it was at one time considered inn
possible to prevent it from spreading
to them. The use of explosives was
suggested, but none were obtainable.
The loss was estimated at approx
mately $4,000, but as it was not
known at the time how large were the
stocks of goods in the stores it was
impossible to make anything like a
correct estimate of the loss. Every
building burned was used for store
or some business purpose, and the
loss will be a severe blow to that en-
terprising town.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. 16.-
Warning was given today by repre-
sentatives Of farmers organizations
before the congressional agrficultur-
al committees that unless the pres
ent disturbed conditions resulting
from profiteering in goods and wages
and strikes are settled soon the coun-
try will face worse conditions from
high costs next year. They stated
that the farmers are preparing for
next years crops under very unccr-
tain conditions and they are unable
to estimate what production may be
because industrial production has
been placed ahead of farm output.
Reports received here state that
federal seizures Of boarded foodstuffs
throughout the country continue to
day and grand iuries in several states
have been called to investigate hoard
ing and profiteering next week.

THEY HAD ID
 SEND FOR
 HER MOTHER
Mrs. Gist Suffered Complete Break down-Gains 53 Pounds taking
 Tanlac.

When I began taking TanIac I
 weighed just one hundred pounds,
 and after finishing four bottles of
 this medicine I now weigh one
 hundred and thirty-three," said Mrs.
 Myrtle L. Gist, residing at 326
 Chestnut Ave, South Pasadena, Los
 Angeles, Cal. Mrs. Gist is the wife
 of a we'll known member of the
 Los Angeles police force, and her
 improvement since taking Tanlac
 has created a good deal of favor
 able comment among her neigh
 bors and friends.
 But making me gain thirty-three
 pounds isn't all Tanlac did for me-"
 continued Mrs. Gist, as she told of the wonderful change. 'I had been in a dreadfully run down condi- ton for three years and finally suf- fered complete physical break down. I had not appetite and the little I ate didn't agree with me. was so dreadfully nervous I could get no restful sleep and would oft en lie awake all night long wor- rying over my condition. Practic- ally all my strength left me and I lost weight until I was almost a shadow.
 My condition finally got so bad they sent for my mother in Ore gon to come here and stay with me and when she got here I was down. I had no appetite and the my head from the pillow. Mother said she had several friends in Oregon who had taken Tanlac with wonderful results and she got me a bottle of the medicine. It seem ed to nelp me from the very start and in a few days I started to get hungry. Then I began eating nour- ishing food and could feel my strength returning. began to sleep soundly and would wake up in the mornings feeling rested and refreshed and I soon was able to walk about the house. I improved every day and now I feel simply fine, have a splendid appetite and can eat just anything I want and enjoy it without any bad after ef- fleets. As I said before, I have actually gained thirty-three pounds and for the first time in many lliO4iIllo dlll dDlc lO QO OWu housework without any trouble I now feel so happy over my won derful improvement that I just get out in the yard with my two chil- dren and romp and play with them and enjoy it thoroughly.
