Begin Right Now to
Conquer Your Rheumatism

If you are going to again rely
upon the lniment bottle to try to
rub your Rheumatism away, you
will be doomed again to nothing
but disappointment. A disease
that can cause so much pain and
suffering is not on the surface Of
the skin, and cannot be rubbed
away.
Many forms of Rheumatism are
caused by a tiny disease germ in
the blood, and in such cases the
only logical treatment is to search
out and remove these germs from

UNCLE TED'S BED TIME
STORIES
A Mexican Disgrace

1.-The other day you pfoHiseo
you'd tell us all about Mexico,
Uncle Ted" said Jack as he pull
led Uncle Ted into his favorite
chair. Il want to know all l can
about it because Tommy Smith
who was a soldier in the big war
is going to help some of us boys
give Mexican show"
"Well. jack answered his
Uncle, Il don't know whether L
can tell you much to help you get
up your Mexican show but l can
tell you d few of the things that
happened in that country in the
past few years and how hundreds
of Americans who live there have
been robbed and killed and how
many others have had their homes
destroyed. 1t is long story and
so you and Ruth will have to be
real quiet SO I can tell you as
much as possible.
Il shall start after the summer
of 1912, the first year that Wood
row Wilson became President.
That summer had been quiet in
Mexico but in October, General
Felix Diaz, nephew Of the former
President Diaz, led revolt against
the government which was then
headed by President Madero. He
failed at the time but after being
sentenced to death was released
and again went after Madero. The
next February. General Huerta
who had been helping Madero.
deserted and the result was the
arrest of President Madero. While
Madero and Suarez, who had been
his vice. president, were being
taken from the Palace in Mexico
city to the penitentiary they were
shot and killed. Huerta became
president then and everyone in
this country was anxious to see
what President Wilson would do,
because of the many Americans
living there and the nearness ofthat
country to our own. 1t was im-
,>orto-& 4bot ho oot Er,,, o,,I N, n L. q
the new Mexican government un-
derstand that we would stand for
no nonsense. Henry Lane Will
son was then our Ambassador in
Mexico and he urged President
Wilson to recognize Huerta as the
Mexican President but our Presi-
dent would not do so altho Spain
did SO in April, 1918. Great Britain
and France in May and many other
countries little later. A great
many people believe that this fail
ure to recognize Huerta was the
first of thousand big mistakes
that President Wilson made in
dealing with Mexico and that had
he recognized Huerta it might
have saved years of trouble and
hundreds of lives
"Why did they think this?"
asked Jack.
Because, Jack, the attitude Of
the United States encouraged
Huerta's enemies who called them
selves Constitutionalists' and
after capturing several towns they
set up another government with
Carranza, who is now president,
as provisional president By
June they controlled nearly all of
north Mexico. Because President
Wilson didn't agree with Am
bassador Wilson he was called
back to the United States and re-
signed July 4, 1913, and John
Lind, former governor of Mime
sofa was sent to try and settle the
troubles in Mexico for Woodrow
Wilson. But he failed and Mr..
Wilson admitted it in a message
to Congress on August 9th of
