Men and Women

The one surpemely good health
building tonic that is also the one
great weight producer known to
modern science the country over Is
McCoy's Tablets.
They build flesh where flesh is
needed-sunken cheeks. neck and
chest-and many a man and woman,
skinny and scrawny have thanked
McCoy's after a few weeks treat
ment for the decided Improvement
in looks and figure.
Many times the increase in weight
is astonishing-one exceedingly thin
woman gained 10 pounds in 22-days.
Mccoy takes all the risk-Read
this ironclad guarantee. If after
taking sixty cent boxes of Nc
Coy's Tablets or 2 One Dollar boxes
any thin, underweight man or woni-
an doesn't gain at least pounds
end feel completely satisfied with
the marked improvement in health
your druggist is authorized to re-
turn the purchase price.

AFRICAN CHEF
TO BROADCAST

H0 AONGl experience OL listening
to a savage chieftain attempting to
shed light on darkest Africa will be
the experience of listeners who tune
WRC at 6:15 this evening. Chief
Amoah III. of the Fanti tribe, will
make 15-minute address on Africa
and Its Needs" We are informed
that the clief-who has been an.
nOunced several times but whose
talk was postponed for one reason
or another-speaks yeTy good Eng.
lish, acquired in an English univer-
sity.
BY some curious chance the talk
on Darkest Africa displaceS from
the WRc schedule the regular
Monday evening debate which, this
week, deals with the question Are
Sunday Blue Laws Defensible?".
1t would be interesting to have the
debate come before the chiefs talk
and let him discuss the debaters!
Only those dial twisters who tune
WEAF constituents will be able
to hear the debate however, which
comes at 7:10 o'clock from that
station and will not be broadcast
by WRC.
The usual Waldorf concert starts
things for WRC and the Roxy con-
cert at $40 clock promises to
feature Lew White, organist Of
the gang. In the United States
Navy Band concert, which may or
may not follow Roxy, depending on
the state OF the Capitol police

will be the usual excellent pro.

Der radiotics will hear-and it IL
worth hearing. The chief feature,
of the program. as we see 1t, will
be Saint -Saens Dams Macabre''--s
the weird, fantastic tone poem that
tells of dance by spirits to the
tune of q satanic fiddler. There
will also be a medly of airs from

By the Associated Press,
LOS ANGELES. April 14.--Adolfo
dc la Huerta, once provisional presi-
dent of Mexico and now proclaimed
by his followers leader of a revolution
there, lives IN humble bungalow
here, apparently in satisfactory ad-
herence to neutrality laws.
There is no mystery about him. His
portfolio bulges with secret communi-
cations from rebel camps, but friends
or government agents are welcome
to inspect them.
When Huerta's position became un-
tenable in Mexico he came to this
country. That was in 1924. Few
knew of his presence here until gov
ernment agents made public secret
missives carried to him by couriers
from Mexican rebel camps. He ad-
mits he still receives these surrepti-
tious communications. Some are writ
ten on small pieces of silk and
brought through the federal lines in
the mouths of couriers.
"Yes, my friends in Mexico have
chosen me their leader" he says.
What should l do? / cannot ig-
more the call of my. country. Every
few days l get communication from
a general In the field. They tell of
fresh military successes. | am TAX
ing no part in the movement, since
| am on American soil. / do not di-
rect affairs of my supporters, but
when the time comes / shall recross
the border
De la Huerta proudly presents his
wife to callers.
do YOU not think she is a bit
old fashioned with her long hair?
