numerous places by the recent bom
bardment which destroyed the civil

TOBACCO
HABIT
A very interesting book has been
published on tobacco habit how to
conquer it quickly and easily. It tells
the dangers of excessive smoking, chew
ing. snuff using, etc., and explains how
nervousness, irritability, sleeplessness,
weak eyes, stomach troubles and nu
merous other disorders may be elimin
ated through stopping self-poisoning
by tobacco. The man who has written
this book wants to genuinely help all
who have become addicted to tobacco
habit and says there's no need to suffer
i that awful craving or restlessness
i which comes when one tries to quit vol-
I untarily. This is no mind-cure or tem
! perance sermon tract but plain common
sense clearly set forth. The author will
send it free, postpaid, in plain wrapper.

~■———■___________ J
Washington, Aug. 22. The admin
istration hopes to withdraw the Na
tional Guard from the Mexican border
by November 1. This hope, according
to persons close to the Administration,
is based on the belief that the joint
commission to settle the Mexican dis
putes will be able to complete its work
by the end of October.
The representatives of the United
States and of the defacto government
of Mexico are expected to complete
their task of settling the points at is
sue without lengthy parleys.
This settlement will include
guarantees of the Carranza govern
ment of the safety of life and proper
ty of foreigners in Mexico, it Is indi
cated.
It is planned to withdraw the regu
lar army forces from Mexican soil and
to have them continue on patrol duty
on the border. This will give Major
General Funston about 11,000 more
regulars than he has now on a similar
duty, and would permit the demobili
zation of the entire National Guard.
Secretary of War Baker yesterday,
in answering a score of letters from
many parts of the country complain
ing that the State troops were being
held in service after the emergency for
which they were called out apparently
had passed, intimated that it was the
Administration's policy to keep the
National Guard on the border only so
long as American lives and property
are in danger.
By its presence on the border, he
wrote to one, the guard is "winning
bloodless victories daily." He declared
that Americans resident along t'he in
ternational line were enjoying a peace
and security they could not know
without the military forces to protect
them.
The department appreciates, Mr.
EaJcer said in another letter, the fact
that a call for military service upon
militia organizations must "inevitably
present cases of hardship." He added:
"The emergency, however, which re
quired this call for the militia was one
of a grave character, affecting the
safety and lives of citizens of the
United States—men, women and chil
dren. The presence of the militia on
the Mexican border has restored order
and given a higher degree of safety
and security to the lives of our peo
ple in that troubled country than they
have for a long time had. The militia
is, therefore, performing a valuable
service; and the fact that this service
is being performed without active mil
itary operations entailing loss of life
to our soldiers is a cause of congratu
lation and happiness."
Referring to the elaborate and ex
tensive training the militiamen are
receiving under supervision of regu
lar army officers, the secretary ex
pressed the opinion that it would fit
them to act in time of war or other
emergency as a supporting arm, or
second line, for the regular army, fur
nishing an asset to national prepared
ness that could not have been obtained
otherwise.
"Clearly, so soon as a restored state
of order on the border Justifies it. these
troops will be returned to their
homes," he wrote, "In the meantime,
It is not possible for the department
to say how soon such a situation will
arise, although the Mexican situation
is one of increasing hopefulness."
To another correspondent, the Sec
retary explained that the National
Guard was maintained for just such
exigencies as that which now exists on
the border, and that it had cost the
government many millions to prepare
and keep It ready for such emergen
cies. He pointed out that National
Guardsmen were fully aware of the
duty they undertook when they en
listed.

that America stands for in China.
This commercial arrangement is all
she has wanted in the past, and all
she wants to-day.
Given an equal chance, the legiti
mate business that we might do in
China is staggering in its proportions
There is enough of it to make all the ]
difference in crucial periods between j
national hard times and national pros- j
perity.
China's chief need to-day is for
railroads. At a conservative estimate
there is room for the investment of
five billion dollars in Chinese railways.
China can by no possibility supply the
capital, the materials or the technical
skill necessary to their construction.
I Yet they are as badly needed for the
development of the country as were !
our own transcontinental lines that
opened up the West, or as the Canad- |
ian Pacific was needed by Canada.
China knows it. She is anxious to
have them built. There are only four j
nations on earth who have capital to
build any considerable portions of
these lines, who can supply the engi- j
neers to see to their building and turn
out the rails and the rolling stock
necessary to their operation. Those
nations are France, Germany, Eng
land and the United States. Allowing ;
for the share of the smaller industrial
nations, it is putting a low estimate on
our business acumen to say, that with
our capital, our trained technical men
and our steel plants, we would secure '
only one-fifth of the business.
I If we did secure that fifth, matters
I would proceed somewhat in this fash-
I ion. The Chinese fe-overnment would
issue railway bonds to raise the neces
sary capital. Those bonds would be
offered for sale in the United States.
Any man with five hundred or a thou
sand dollars to invest could put it into j
a Chinese railway bond guaranteed by
a stable Chinese government. If
China boated a billion dollars worth
of railway bonds in the United States,
it would mean first that this country
would draw an annual fifty millions
in interest alone, to be added to the
wealth of the nation at large.
Of the billion dollars thus raised in i
| the United States, however, a large

proportion would thus be spent in the
United States at once. All the neces
sary materials of construction, all the
rails and cars and locomotives, would
be purchased in American mills and
car shops. Whole Industries would
receive a big impetus, that would be
! reflected not only in those industries
: but throughout the nation, exactly as

' fleeted to-day. Not only would em

The business thus started would bo
