( What VIII Be Obr9gOnS
Fate as President Mexico

still whispered in Mexico that the
without difficulty or cost, have been
trivial compared to the blood and
tears caused by the use and abuse OF
the habit-forming drug of executive
power within the last ten years. Be-
cause of it the terms of General OBJ

it seems, probably will relinquish
his post tomorrow of his own free
will, in safety and security.
With General Porfirio Diaz began
the ten-year cycle of unrest. For
years he had ruled Mexico with an
iron hand until the welding of power
was a second nature to him. Al
though he had grown old, he could
not bear to relinquish it's use. So on
March 8, 1910 he had himself elected
for another term of six years. The
iron hand had lost its grip, how
ever, an it was no longer an impair
tial hand. Advisers, through whose
Vaccinations he would have seen in
stantly in past years, began to sway
him not for his good or Mexico's but
for their own.
They took advantage, it is said, of
his failing powers about which he
was most sensitive.
"Don Porfrio," one would say,
"you did not sign that concession
you promised me. What have / done

"Why yes, you did. Don't you re-

many Of It's characteristics, the extinct
dlnosaur, huge reptile Of the Meso-
zoic period, fossils Of which have been
discovered by paleontologists In the
sandstone strata both of the African
and American continents.
It lives in Lake Victoria Nyanza
and its numerous tributaries, and
there is no record of the monster hav-
ing been seen in any other part Of the

with but slight notifications through

whether IL is an unclasslfied reptile
or amphibian, it is equally impossible
to say, as no specimen exists either
Of its bones or Of Its skin. That this
monster does exist, however, there can
be no particle Of doubt, as the testi.
mony of authoritative eye-witnesses
cannot be reasonably discredited.

TEST GOOD ROAD MATERIALS
Much Detailed Technical information
Secured In Experiments BY
Public Roads Bureau

It is believed that the bureau OF
public roads, United States depart
ment Of agriculture, through its test
ing division has done more than any
other single agency in developing the
intelligent use of bitumens in road
construction. For example, expert
ments conducted under service con-
dltions by this bureau decided wheth-
er a soft stone could be used In
bituminous macadam and bituminous
concrete: whether rocks having
marked cleavage could be used to ad-
vantage In such construction what
quantities of bitumen give the best re
suits when used as surface treatments
on water-bound macadam and what
kind of covering material and what
quantities should be used In any case.
A large amount of detailed techni-
cal information valuable to highway
engineers generally has been secured
by the bureau in the course Of It's
research and experimental work. The
ability of the highway engineer to
construct roads which would accom-
modate automobile traffic has, in no
small degree, been the underlying
reason that the automobile industry
has developed to its present enormous
proportions.
In 1916 fine passage Of the federal
aid road act marked a new epoch in
/ highway construction in the United
States. The war then in progress EN-.
phasized the need Of further develop

Speedy Relief
From Habitual
Constipation,

The liver is the largest and most inn
nortant organ In the body, and when the
liver refuses to act, 1t causes constipa-
ton. biliousness, headaches, indigestion
gas. sour stomach. bad breath. dyseh-
terry, diarrhoea, pains in back ana unoer
shoulder blades and under ribs on, rlsne
side. These symptoms lead to colds, IN
auenza or other serious troubles unless
corrected Immediately.
An inactive liver places an extra bur
den on the kidneys, which overtaxes them
and causes the blood to absorb and car
~ into the system the impurities that the
liver and kidneys have failed to elimi-
nate.
When you treat the liver alone. you
treat only third of your trouble, and
that is why you have to take purgatives
every few nights. Calomel or other ordi-
nary laxatives do not so far enough. II
you would treat your kidneys and blood
while treating the liver, you would put
your entire system in order and frequent
purgatlves would then be unnecessary.
