There is no reason why there

The expenses connected with the

Washington, D. C., Mar. 17.—Higher
wages were paid to American farm la-
borers in 1910 than at any time in the
last 45 years, according to statistics
just made public by the Department
of Agriculture. The average wages
for the country was $27.50 a month
in 1910, while 20 years ago they were
only $18.33. With board, the average
wage was $19.21.

"It is just a year ago that my sis-
ter came over hero to us. She had
been here only a few weeks when her
eyes began to be red, and to burn and
sting as If she had sand in them.
Then we used all of the home reme-
dies. She washed her eyes with salt
water, used hot tea to bathe them
with, and bandaged them over night
with tea leaves, but all to no purpose.
She went to the drug store and got
some salve, but she grew constantly
worse. She was scarcely able to look
in the light. At last she decided to
go to a doctor, because she could
hardly work any more. The doctor
said it was a very severe disease, and
if she did not follow his orders close-
ly she might lose her eyesight. He
made her eyes burn and applied elec-
tricity to them, and gave her various
ointments. In the two and a half or
three months that she went to the
doctor, we could see very little im-
provement.
“Then we had read so much how
people had been helped by Cuticura
that we thought we would try it. and 1
we cannot be thankful enough that we
used it. My sister used the Cuticura :
Pills for purifying the blood, bathed
only with Cuticura Soap, and at night
after washing, she anointed her eyes
very gently on the outside with the
Cuticura Ointment. In one week, the
swelling was entirely gone from the
eyes, and after a month there was no
longer any mucus or watering of the
eyes. She could already see better,
and in six weeks she was cured.’’

Washington. Mar. 20.—Chairman
Underwood expects the democratic

papers denounce our mobilizing of
troops and proclaim our intent to find
another Groce-Cannon incident as a
pretext for invasion and control of the
country. A wont train sent out from
Torreon was halted by a band of alleg-

learned that an American named
Brackenhow was in charge of the en-

BIBLE IS FOUNDED ON MYTH
That Is the Statement Made by Rock-

Dr. Aked.
The most complex question to come

tariff questions will be placed upon the

( cides should be revised, shall be treat-
ed as separate measures.
New York, Mar. 20.—That many of

New York. Mar 20.—Bathetic de-
tails of the sufferings from famine in
Anwhei and other provinces of China
reach the mission boards here in every
mail. A letter came to the board of
foreign missions of the Presbyterian
church from Rev. Thomas Carter, a
missionary stationed at Hwai Yuen, in

lesson thut myth teaches. Myth has
beauty and meaning, for it lies at the

New 100-Mile Motor Record.
Eos Angeles. Cal., Mar. 20.—Teddy
Tetzlaff, in a Lozier, established four

ed to loot the ranch but the colonel
prevented this by asserting that Amer-
ican property must be respected. From
this it is judged that the wholesale
stealing that has been going on .is done
by irresponsible bandits who call
them insurrectos, but the result is
none the less serious to American in-
vestments.
It is evident that both in Sonora and
Chihuahua money is* scarce and provi-
sions scarcer.
Starving Out the Towns.
Insurrecto leaders have forbidden
store keepers in the towns to buy any
grain from ranchmen and the country
Is so terrorized that these orders are
being obeyed. The insurrectos are do-
ing their best to-prevent the towns
from accumulating provender and witlj
success. There is intense suffering
among the poor class of laboring peo-
ple who have laid up no store of food.
The country is full of cattle, but these
are being corralled by the owners
where they can be and are driven off
by the insurrectos when possible. This
city is full of cattle buyers who are

Greatest Little Invention.
The greatest little invention that
has been given to the world is the
lucifer match. It was invented in
1827. It is small, but like Portia’s
candlg, it has shed a great light into
the world. It gave man mastery of
fire. Before this fire had bdfen a con-
trary hired man, but now it became
an obedient servant.
All Snakes Are Killers.
But aJl snakes, great and small, are
killers. All of them eat creatures
which they slay. None eat vegetable
food of any kind, nor will they eat
animals which they find dead. That
is one reason, no doubt, why they have
always been shunned and dreaded by
human beings.
