changes i TO DO the necessary

reduce or increase their weight
by the right sort of thinking
and can alter their facial feat

those physical changes in which

but presents Others Of greater
Importance. al least TO the male
of the species.
He says the reason why men
have not easily lived 10 be at
least 100 years old is because fer
centuries mankind has been
taught and come to believe IN the
70-year limit. II was so because
everybody believed it to be that
way and the constant thinking
completed the process. Now if
mankind Is as consistently taught
that this thesis Is a blunder. that
men should. can and will live
TO be 100 years old as easily as
10-the thing is done. All that
is necessary is the thinking. II
may be worth TRYING to those who

Climbs Abroad Seaplanc and Refuses
to Get Off.
A bold sea lion took charge Of Il
seapIane No. 3, on destroyer range
near the Coronado Islands recently,
says a San Diego, Cal, dispatch.
The seaplane, in charge of Ensign
Edward Dolieck, alighted on the
water to wait for the destroyers to
take their position for practice, and
the side door of the aft compartment
was open to let the ;es from the en-
CINE escape. Suu, lly the ensign
and his crew were surprised to hear a
resounding "woof" from the cOmpart-
ment. In it they found n sea lion
weighing some seventy-fve pounds
which had evidently floundered up the
incline leading to the compartment
and decided to remain.
The crew tried to put the sea lion
off, but he resented that attempt
fighting bravely, and bit one of the
crew on the arm. Then the crew de-
cided to let him stay and piled life
preservers on him to keep him quiet.
In that position he was taken back to
North Island to serve as mascot for
the seaplgne force

TROUBLE FOR MEXICO.
Reported That General Diaz Will Seek
to Gust President Obregop.

Reported That General Diaz WIZ seek
to Gust President Obregop.
Gen. Felix Diaz is expected to move
into Southern Mexico from Guatema-
Ia. at the head of approximately d.
! 600 men and proclaim himself presl-
dent of the Mexican republic within
the next thirty days, according to in
formation in the hands of United
States agents along the Mexican bor-
der, says dispatch to the New YORK
| World.
Gen. Diaz's pojected coup will be
the elimination of several minor rev.
olutions in the various southern states
of the Mexican republic fostered by
generals who have Issued proclnma-
tions backing .Daz for the presidency
Would Be Conservative.
It is said by the United States
agents that former high officials OF
President Carranza' regime were ap-
! preached in an effort TO get them to
throw in their lot with the Diaz fac
tion, but they refused, standing hrm
on the CarranZista constitution OF lslf'
which is very radical. Diaz, If sue
cessfuT in his coup, will force the
adoption of the 1857 constitution,
which Is conservative.
Negotiations still are in progress
between the two factions, but stu
dents OF Mexican politics doubt that
there will be an alignment of the two
/ forces.
Guellermo Rosas, Jr., who claims to
be private secretary of Gen. Felix
Diaz and his political adviser, has
been in San Antonio several days con-
ferrlng with former Carranzistas.
! Gen. Carlos Green, deposed govern
or of the state of Tabasco, is one of
the most ardent workers in the Diaz
cause and is declared to have practi-
cal control of Tabasco, with 5000 men
| in his army; while Gen. Mario Ferrer,
in the state of OaXaca, is reported to
be carrying out successful revolt
with approximately 1000 men. Gen.
Ricardo Morales, in the state Of Vera
Cruz, has just hunched a movement
supporting Diaz, backed by 1900 men.
Small movements are under way in
the states of San Luis Potosi, Nuevo
Leon, Jalisco, Huasteca and Coahuila.
According to nformatiOn Gen. Diaz
will not enter Mexico until assured
sufficient momentum has been given
the revolt to make certain its success.
