suspicioned by many. President Wil

of that country belong to Mexico

country to ileal With and has used
his endeavors, as a big brother

its own differences. There h:is been

Better Light
For
Better Sight
At your work you insist
upon good white light—the
white steady light of Nat-
ional Mazdas. Good light is
equally important at home.
National Mazdas not only
give better light and better
sight, but cost less for cur-
rent. For the same light
they take one-third the elec-
tricity. For the same co t
they give three times the
light of carbon lamps.
We shall be happy to aid
you in selecting the proper
sizes and styles for the cor-
rect, economical lighting of
your house.

\ company of very new soldiers
were out on a wide heath, practicing
tlie art of taking cover. The officer
111 charge of them turned to one of
the rawest of his men.
"Get down behind that hillock
there," he ordered, sternly, "and,
mind, not a move or a sound."
A few minutes later he looked
a round to see if they were all con-
cealed. and, to his despair, observed
something wriggling behind the
small mound. Even as he watched
the movements became more frantic.
"I say, you there!" he shouted,
angrily, "do you know you are giv-
ing our position awav to the en-
emy?"
"Yes, sir," said the recruit, in a
voice of cool desperation, "and do
you know that this is an ant-hill."
