II was in a terribly rundown
condition and suffered constantly
from stomach trouble. My kidneys
gave me SO much trouble L had to
get UP eight or ten times every
night. I was underweight and had
so little strength 1 could attend to
no business at all that required

the second husband, worn by the

and its attendant hardshipS, fol-

These alliances brought to the
widow a vast stretch Of grazing

Attempts of some of her children
to have her adjudged insane, and
thus invalidate leases she had en-

in failure. She herself began the

a son, Henry Monroe, over a graz

Even in death she left behind ad-

SAN BENTTO, April 19.-The
shortage of labor in produce houses,
especially in those referring to bean

serious, according to Luther Hughes,
president of the Weslaco Chamber
Of Commerce, who is asking all the
chambers of commerce Of the Low
er Rio Grande Valley to take i'm
mediate concerted steps toward a
solution of the problem.
The root of the evil is traced back
to the strict enforcement of immi-
grafton laws here against Mexican
laborers, according to various cham
Der of commerce secretaries, who
will wire Rep. John H. Garner. to
attempt to procure less restriction
on Mexican labor here as a solution
for the shortage Of labor in the
