The Baby is perhaps one of the
most colorful of all the Mexican
fighters of today with the possible
exception of Bert Colima. The fans
turn out to see Sal sock 'em vita

go home early.
De Foe is no mean opponent hav-

tricks of the trade and with a little
caution can probably circumvent
the sleep producing punch carried
by the Baby.
While the main event will un-

semi -windup should be equally as

time, and will appear some time after
July in the small size to which the
rest OF the country's paper money is
being reduced.
In making this announcement last
night In letters to the president of the
Senate and Speaker Of the House. Sec
rotary of the Treasury Mellon referred

This conclusion, Mr.. Mellon said. had
been reached after thorough study and
consideration"
There was no indication in the off,
cial announcement as to how long the
Treasury intends to approve circulation
of the national bank notes, but it was
learned informally that no definite time
has been set for their retirement.
The Treasury still is of the opinion,
however, that the national bank notes
constitute an Illogical part" of the
money of the country, and eventually
should be eliminated, as contemplated
by the Federal Reserve act
AS the per cent consols which secure
the national bank circulation are call

Treasury will make plans to put out a
new issue to secure the currency
In his last annual report and in the
previous report of 1924, Secretary Mellon
discussed the undeSirability of the
national bank notes.

C. St. Mother

Don't let constipation and it's
attendant ailments, such as head
aches, biliouSneSS, feveriShneSS,
fretfulness, sallow, "broken-out"
skin, ETC., pull your child down and
make her puny, listlesS and under
weight. At the first sign of bad
breath, coated tongue or feverish-
ness, give her little California
Fig Syrup.
Children love the rich, fruity
flavor of California Fig Syrup, and
it never fails to start lazy bowels
quick, cleanse them thoroughly
and give tone and strength to
them and to the stomach so these
organs continue to act normally,
of their own accord. It stimulates
the appetite, helps digestion,
makes rosy cheeks, bright eyes,
helps build up and strengthen
children.
A well known Washington
mother, Mrs. G. M. Pigott, SIG C
ST., NE, says: MY little daugh-
ter, Helen, suffered from constipa-
ton until I thought it was going
to keep her delicate always. She
was losing weight fast when I
started her on California Fig
Syrup. In few days it made a
world of difference in her looks
and actions Now I'm proud as I
can be of her; she's so ruddy,
strong and plump"
