Both sides in MeXico's latest revo-
luton are claiming minor successes
in the desultory lighting which thus
far has taken place. The decisive
struggles for which they are mar
shaling their forces. however. have
not yet occurred. judging from the
meager reports received.
The. area of operations is divided
roughly into two zones, the first be-
tween Mexico City and Vera Cruz,
where government forces are oppos-
ing an advance upon the capital by
the insurgents und"r Gen. Guadalupe
Sanchez. The other is to the west of
Mexico City. where the federals are
proceeding against the rebels under
Gen. Enrique Estrada.
Obreson Directing Activity.
President Obregon for the time is
giving his personal direction to the
western campaign. Adolfe de la
Huerta. the presidential candidate
heading the revolt against Obregon,
is apparently remaining in Vera Cruz.

The government forces are reported
to have abandoned the important rail-
way junction of San Marcos, about
seventy miles east. of the capital
This report comes through the revolu-
tiOnary headquarters in Vera Cruz,
which also claims the adhesion to
their cause of Gen. Maycotte and the
Governor of Oaxaca. clearing the way
for their further advance from the
east toward Mexico City. The rebels
also claim the Obregonists are
evacuating Puebla City in the race
of superior forces.

To the west of the capital the
revolutionists announce the capture
Of Uruapan, in Michoacan, and
Acambaro, a few miles south of
Celaya. The latter success. ii sub

army. which is pushing toward

the capital Of the state of Jalisco.

MALONE, y. Y. December 10
While searching for bootleggers along
the Canadian border, federal agents
and the BLACK Horse" Troop of the
state police have stumbled on what
is evidently gigantic plot to SNUG
gle aliens into this country.
SO far this month, fifty aliens have
the four northeastern counties of the
state, it was authoritatively learned
today. This partly confirms a report
made public at the national industrial
conference in New York quoting &
Secretary of labor Davis as saying
that as many as 1000 aliens daily
were being brought Illegally into the
United States.
Men of Desirable Type.
The aliens. as a rule. are Of de
sirable type. but have been barred
/! from enterting this country because
the Immigration quotas for the year
have been filled Most Of the aliens
taken into custody in recent weeks
have been Irish. English and Swedish
A small proportion were Italian
Many OF them are trained workmen
and expert farmers.
According to reports. there are
organizations ip the Dominion. with
some apparent connection on this
side of the border. which guarantee
the anxious alien that he can be
smuggled safely across the line for
small fee. While many aliens un-
Ioubtedly escape attention. through
various devices, others are caught be-
cause of clumsy methods. The

The authorities reported today that
they believed they had the liquor
smuggling situation well in hand
Admitting that large quantities had
been poured over the line in recent
weeks, they pointed to the fact that
they had seized more than seventy
five liquor laden cars in the last two
and on e-half months as proof OF
their -:igilance.
Bootleggers, meanwhile. with q big
stock on hand, and chafing at the en-
forced delay. were reported TO lie

LABOR Cut IN TWO

Just a little of the wonderful new
preparation, NACO, dropped in the
scrub bucket, and your work is at
once cut in half, while the results are
twice as thorough and satisfactory
Naco cuts the CRIME and grease like
a knife. enabling you to take 1t off
with the least possible scrubbing and
rubbing. BY softening the water,
Naco greatly increases the cleansing
action of your soap.
Floors. thing, linoleum. Oilcloth.
walls and woodwork are made spot
lessy clean and fresh. Washbowl,
bathtub and sink are cleaned and
sweetened in a jiffy. Yet though
r.arvelously efficient in its work and
an excellent disinfectant and deo-
dorant, the new liquid is as harmless
in its action as pure soap.
As a washday help in the tub NACo
is without a peer. Never have you
seen your table lines and white linen
and cotton garments so lustrously
white, SO spotlessly clean. Fruit
stains, coffee stains. Precipitation
stains-even ink stains-dissolve and
diappear. Dirt and CRIME are quick
ly loosened and made easy for the
soap to carry of.
You can get NACo at your grocer's
r-1s cents for generous sized bottle.

Alkai in Soap Bad for Washing Hair

Many soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much free alkali, which is
very injurious, as it dries the scalp
and makes the hair brittle.
The. best thing to use is Mulsifed
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
and entirely greaseless. 1t is mex
pensive and beats anything else all to
pieces. You can get this at any drug
store, and few ounces will last the
whole family for months.
Two or three teaspoonfuls is all that
is required. Simply moisten your hair
with water and rub it in. 1t makes an
abundance of rich, creamy lather,
which clcanses thoroughly, and rinses
out easily.
The hair dries quickly and evenly,
and is soft, fresh looking, bright, fluffy,
wrvy, and easy to manage. Besides, it
