 you are at liberty to do SO. C.S'M. This is only one case out of thousands. You should make the EATON1C test in your own case at once. You have everything to gain--not penny can you lose, for we take all the risk. Your own common sense, your own feelings, tell you that good appetite, good di- gestion, good stomach, with the fever poisons and effects of strong medicines out of your system, will put you on the road to strong, robust health again. You want to enjoy life again after you have battled with the "hu', fever or colds, or any other illness that has taken your strength. You want to get back your old-time vigor, be full of pep and enthusiasm-be able to work with ease, instead of listlessly, half-heart- edly dragging out a mere existence. So be sure to take box of EATON1C home with you today. We cannot urge this too strongly. If EATONlC fails to give you positive beneficial results, it will not cost you penny. There IS no risk-the benefit is surely all for you.

For the Good of
 The Community

l ne Community > DEANUT lard has appeared in Birming-
 ham. It is on sale at several grocery stores and is said to be the equal of the hog product and superior to some of the other substitutes
 The peanut lard sold here is made in an Ohio river city. The peanuts from which it is made are shipped from other states to that city, some of it, most likely from Alabama
 The Alabama peanut is said to be richer in oil and to have better flavor than that of almost any other state It is small and for that reason is said to be discrinlinated agalnSt m some markets.
 Alabama grows more peanuts than any other state, according to the latest govern nnent statistics. Peanut oil has been sell ing at around S8O ton in recent months, q price said to be entirely too low, consid- ering the prices other farm and factory products are bringing.
 Birmingham is favorably located for the manufacture of peanut oil and peanut lard. Peanuts are grown in practically every county in Alabama; the annual crop yield in the district contiguous to Birming- ham running into the millions of bushels annually. The freight rate to Birmingham >- is considerably less than from the farms to the Ohio city to which they are now shipped and converted into lard
 It is stated that a factory for extracting the oil from peanuts and converting 1t into lard could be built and equipped for a con- paratively small sum- and with the many trunk lines of railway radiating in every direction from Birmingham, distribution ! could be made from here with equal facil- tv and at less cost from farm to consumer than from the city that has been enterpris- ! ing enough to first engage in this line of industry.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 23.-
William Mitchell, former manager Of
the Bank Of London in Mexico City,
told the house rules committee today
that the sending Of two American mil
itary expeditions into Mexico and
their subsequent withdrawal was
largely responsible for the anti
American feeling in Mexico. He de-
clared this caused the Mexicans to
believe that America was afraid "a

were withdrawn the Mexicans had
contempt for all Americans.
Mitchell further stated that the
riff-raff in the Mexican army was
largely responsible for depredations
in Mexico, particularly in the Tam

not treated with the same considera-

said The witness said that Am

CLUB FOR SAN
BENITO ENDORSED HERE
Brownsville Rotarans Recommend That Valley City BE-
GiUen Charter Colonel Sayre Asks That w. o. Hoogen
strait be Returned to Y. M. {. A. Work Here.

Brownsvlle's Rotary Club went on
record today noon as enclosing the ap-
plication of San Benito citizens for a
charter in the national organization.
Rotarian David Spero introduced the
subject at the clubs meeting this
noon, at which time he read COM
munication from San Benito, which
included an affidavit TO the effect
that the population of that city was
5,109 persons. 1t is necessary for a
city to have population of 5000
to get Rotary charter.
The affidavit il signed by McMur-
ry Richey, mayor and Charles Green
slade. city clerk.
Twenty-eight names as charter
members of the proposed club accom-
panied the application. They were
John T. Lomax. McMurry Richey.
George H. Winsor. Ben Pupkin. +.
II. Downs, j. c. Mertz. Samuel Spears,
w. @. B. Morrison, f.. +. Ogden.
Charles r. Barber, J. B. Symonds.

Frazier. w. r. Drake, Frank w. Ro-
berts. S. X. Elder, G. NJ. Cash, J
Scott Brown, George b. Falligant,
John G. Bowie and John McDougall.
Rotarian Spero explained how the
San Benito gentlemen had sought
membership in this organization, and
that if they were not successful in
this move they would be compelled
to turn to the Kiwanis or Lions clubs.
II was Mr.. Spero's opinion that Rotary
should be kept foremost in the Valley
and therefore he made the motion TO
endorse the San Benito application
Rotarian A. Wayne Wood recon
mended that the endorsement be
given, and Rotarian Henry Williams
said a Rotary Club in San Benito
cant hurt Brownsville, and can
help Brownsville.
The motion was carried and Ro-
tartan Spero was ordered to take care
Of the matter. Mr. Spero took up the
San Benito application with Rotar-
ian Chcs X. Perry, international sec
retary, some time ago, and that gen
tleman said that if the city had the
population and was endorsed by the
Brownsville club the charter could
probably be endorsed. The applica.
ton, endorsement and affidavit was
forwarded to headquarters this after
noon.
