SURE WAY TO END RHEUMATISM Ease Stiff, Sore Joints and Mus cles. Make Pains and Back ache Promptly Vanish. It is needless to suffer any longer with rheumatism, and be all crippled up, and bent out of shape with its heart-wrenching pains, when you can surely avoid it. Rheumatism comes from weak, in active kidneys, that fail to filter from the blood the poisonous waste matter and uric acid; and it is useless to rub on liniments or take ordinary reme dies to relieve the pain. This only prolongs the misery and can't possibly cure you. The only way to cure rheumatism is to remove the ,cause. The new dis covery, Croxone, does this because It neutralizes and dissolves all the poi sonous substances and uric acid that lodge in the joints and muscles, to scfatch and irritate and cause rheu matism, and cleans out and strength ens the stopped -up, inactive kidneys, so they can filter all the poisons from •the blood and drive it on and out of the system. Croxone is the most wonderful med icine ever made for curing chronic rheumatism, kidney troubles, and bladder disorders. You will lind it dif /erent from all other remedies. There is nothing else 011 earth like it. It matters not how old you are, or how long you have suffered, it is practically impossible to take it into the human system without results. You will find relief from the first few doses, and you will be surprised how quickly all your misery and suffering will end. An original package of Croxone costs but a trifle at any first-class drug store. All druggists are authorized to Bell it on a positive money-back guar antee. Three doses a day for a few days Is often all that is ever needed to cure the worst backache or over come urinary disorders. Advertise ment.

Orders were also issued to the Tacoma, now at Boston, to procede to Tampico. The torpedo fleet now at Pensacola was notified to stand by for orders to proced eto Tam pico." » | Noval oncers eagerly transmitted the orders to the fleet and there was x scene of activity and anticipation. The feeling that the Washington govern ment had determined, to show the Huerta government its fixed determi nation to insist on an apology and public salute pervaded official cir cles. * It was learned authoritatively that j while further investigation of the I Tampico Incident was being made, ' there was a general feeling that the 1 demand of Rear Admiral Mayo should |be backed up. In the meantime, how | ever, it was determined that negotia • tions with the Huerta government, .through Charge 'Shaughnessy, should proceed in order to represent to Gen eral Huerta the insistence of the United States. (setting in Keadiness Members of the Cabinet were hope ful that no further step would be re quired to secure compliance with the American demand, but they privately : admitted that the Washington govern | ment was getting ready to enforce its demand should it meet with resist ance. i The mobilization of the fleet under I such circumstances as occurred to day, immediately raised, in official cir cles, the question of whether the pos jsible landing of marines at Tampico in 1 satisfaction for the arrest of the ma rines last Thursday, would be an act I of war. It has been repeatedly pointed out | that the landing of any armed forces I without the permission of the govern ment in control of the territory was regarded here as an act of war and military intervention. It was point ed out to-day, however, by those fa miliar with precedent, that should Uie Huerta commander fail to resist any aggressive steps by the American na val officers and retire, no further seri ous consequences might result, as the United States might feel disposed not to press the affair any further. Inasmuch as the United States has recognized no government in Mexico, [ but regards the Southern republic as in | a state of anarchy, it has long been realized here that unusual steps might be taken without using extensively ag gressive measures. John Lind, the President's personal representative in Mexico, who now is in Washington, is known to have held, for some time, the view that a more drastic policy should be pursued by the United States in dealing wrth Huerta. He is understood to have told the President and Secretary Bryan that Huerta would delay and evade the issue Just so long as the United States seemed disinclined to use force. New Two-speed Yales Are Powerful Machines Bather striking testimony of the wonderful power possibilities of the new type of motorcycle comes from Madison Wis. A motorcycte party of four wont from Madison to Middle town, eight miles away, for supper. Scarcely had the return trip begun when one of the machines, to which a side-car was attached, went "dead." The other machine was one of thfc new two-speed Yales, and though It was already carrving tandem, the 'cripple" and its side-car were hitched ; on nrd the party of four swept gaily ! through the sand and over the hill's buck to Madison. It required "some" power to make such a feat possible; and It is doubtful If any motorcycle excent a two-speed cou'd have accomplished It. The two-speed gives the rider prac tlcHlly the same choice of speeds and the same range of power that the driver of the motor car has at his com mend, which explains the great pop ularity of this new t vpe of motor-1 cycle.

SOME WONDERS OF NATURE By Garrett P. Servlss. Now that man has learned to fly. he takes a new interest In other flying animals, the number of which turns out to be surprisingly large when one's attention is called to them. The birds are simply the most advanced type of fliers, for the power of flight is by no means confined to the avian family. The bird Is believed to be a de scendant of reptiles or dragons, which acquired wings and learned to flv ages ago. Some of the family of rep tiles still retain the ability to flv, and since they represent the ancestral line of the birds it Is natural to begin with them In looking over the list of flying animals now In existence. The chlamydosaurus of Australia, a kind of lizard, has a huge Eliza bethan ruff about the neck which serves as a parachute, enabling the animal to jump out Into the air from a height and descend safely to tiie ground. When not In use the ruff is folded alo»' the foreshoulders Ac cording to .e authors, the huge ruff of the cllt dosaurus Is also Intended, or at least ,sed, as a means of frelght ening off enemies, and its aspect seems well calculated for that purpose. The Flying Dragon The flying dragon has a kind of I wings, covered with horny scales. I which It folds along its body when it | is not launching Itself in a flying jump. : The flying frog has its wings at tached to its feet In the form of broad, thin membranes stretched be tween the toes. Of course, none of these reptiles Is a true flier, and vet they do ; manage with the aid of their slng . ular locomotive organs to pass con- I slderable distances through the air. I Their achievements in aerial navigation are about comparable with those of i the earliest experimenters with aero planes. The struggle for existence which leads animals of many soecies to i prey upon one another probably led to the development of a certain power of flight In several species of fish. Furnished with wings, email fish are able to lean from the water when pur sued, and launch themselves for long | distances through the air. Every sea voyager has' seen flying flsli sklnimlng above the waves, and occasionally land ing on the deck of a ship. Flying Squirrels Arboreal, or tree-dwelling, animals might naturaly be expected to de velop the power of flight, as a con siderable number have done. Many of these are nopularly known as flying snuirrels. Their organs of flight "con sist of extensions of the furry skin at the sides of' the body, which can be stretched out like a pair of mantles by extending t'he front nnd hind legs. The animal then launches itself from a tree and glides like an aeroplane to the branches of a neigh boring tree. Until the experiments of the Wright brothers led to the development of mechanical flight by means of aero planes some of the storleß of flights performed by flying soulrrels were looked upon with much doubt by many persons, but now that we know by our own experience what can be done by means of a plane moving edgewise through the air, It is easier to understand what the flving squir rels have accomplished. But it will always be a subject for wonder bow nature could have developed such pow ers. and the organs needed for their use, simply upon file principles of evo lution. For Your Baby.

It is known her grand father objects to the marriage be cause the ex-Governor wanted the nexl husband of his granddaughter to bo an American. The Baron's relatives frown on it because Mrs. Stiness has not more money than her fiance. A few years ago on the eve of the day set for her wedding to Harold Wipenny, a young Philadelphlan, Mrs. Stiness. then 19, eloped with Henry M. Stiness, son of a former Chief Justice of Rhode Island, one of her grandfather's political enemies. The marriage proved unhappy and within threo years the young wife ran away to Paris from her home in Providence, a divorce following.
