heart-breaking march from Old Mexico

a settlement which was destined to
grow into the present great common

as it's Gem City,, as it has come to be
known. -
The Romantic Past
Here at. Old Town are many OF the
interesting old adobe dwellings of the
Spanish and Mexican regimes, inc'ld
ing the large building, erected in 525,
which has become famous as the "Niar.
riabe Place or Ramona" This st NC
ture was really the scene of the we'd
ding described by the late Helen Fl int
jackson in her immortal story of SOU
thern California. In recent years the
etlif1ce has been restored and is row
maintained as a museum, being fl led
with hundreds of rare and interes. rlg
relics, documents and pictures of the
early days of California. Here also

AS one OF the most beautiful and
healthful cities in tho world, San Diego
has long enjoyed q most enviable dis
tinction. The city healthc department
officially reports that the death rate per
1000 residents is 3.73, one of the lowest
of all the cities of the United States.
The outstanding reason for this is the
equality OF temperature, almost contin-
ual sunshine, tempered by the cool
breezcs from the Pacific( pure, filtered
mountain water in abundance, an ex-
ccilcnt sewer system and a rigid sani-
tary inspection. San Diego has one of

Municipal Government
San Diego has a modern form of city
manager plan OF government, with a
common council of five members elect
ed at large, Of which the mayor is pre-

manager of operation are the sewers,
water, harbor, public buildings, streets,

A City of Homes
While San Diego, with it's magnificent
harbor, is steadily becoming great
commercial city, it has long been a
favorite city for homes, and is yearly
attracting more and more dwellers
from the eastern and less favored eli

whom its unsurpassed climatic and
scenic surroundings appeal with pecul-
lar force.

Paris, Tuesday, March IS (By the As.
ISOLATED Press The military terms of
the treaty of peace have been amended
by the elimination of the clause proyid-
ing for the control of Germany's arma-
ment for an indefinite period. Admiral
w. S. Benson of the United States navy
pointed out that the original terms com
mitted the United States to firtually
indefinite occupation OF Germany, and it
was chiefly on his insistence that the
terms were modified. American delegates
also pointed out that control of, any por-
ton of Germany for such period would
delay the return of American troops and
would amount to annulling the sover-
eighty Of Germany.
As amended, the terms provide for
control through the time fixed for the
delivery of materials of war, guns and
ships, but not through the period during
which war damages viii be paid by Ger
many.

Your Other Brain

Down in the abdominal cav
ity lies a great "pIexuS" or
network of nerve centres,
that has been called the "ab.
dominal- brain. :" 1t cannot
think. Its functions are to
superintend and keep in
operation various mechsn-
ical processes, such as the
proper secretion of mois-
lure by intestinal-gland and
adequate action-o intestinal
muscles in the walls of the
bowels.
1t receives messages from
nerves in various regions of
the body, but being unable TO
reason, it often acts blindly,
imperfectly, or improperly.
1t may stop secretion, lessen
muscular action and the
result is constipation.
Castor oil, pills, salts, min
eral waters, ETC., do not
reason with the abdominal
brain, they force it to tenn
porary action, to unnatural
effort, until the bowels
move. But this is followed
by a sulky attitude or even
"a J" strike" by your other
brain, and the constipation
is increased not cured.
