Demands for action camr from minority members, and while ths Administration leader counselled pa tience, even Senator flona. chairman of the Hrnata foreign relations committee. admitted that If Carranaa after a fair trial failed to protect foreigners In Mexico, Intervention was Inevitsble.

I here realised tMa difficulty confronting the Admin istration and have no disposition to embarrass It simply because It Is not of my own party. "The Senator asks what I would do. If I were President todsy I would de mand protection for American citizens of Mr. Carranaa. and If ha were un able to give It t would ask Congreaa what my further duty was. I am not going to argue, but I think we ought lo settle now. once for all. whether the lives of American cltlxens ar safe across the Rio Grande." sWaa Crtllelaee I-ellcy.

I would demand protection for Americans of Carranza. and If he did not gtv assursnces of protection In a way that would leave no aouoi as to Ita being carried out. 1 would inter vene." "Party politics has no place in con slderstlok of a question of this char acter, replied Senator stone. ine men who committed this crime should be hunted and punished as tbey de serve with th law. It must b re membered that they were Irresponsible bandits and that there could be a crime of th kind In any state. It la only within two months that snythlng ap proaching a government haa been ea tabllabed In Mexico. I am as concerned as any man in the protection or uvea nd property In Mexico." "TEAUTIFUL SNOW!"

Is your digestion good t JJo your bowels move regularly?" The oculist knows that eye strain is frequently caused by a disor dered stomach or by constipation. Any doctor will tell you the same thing. Constipation throws the whole system out of gear. Its effects are felt almost immediately in biliousness, headaches, blurred vision, nervous depression, and other symptoms of auto-intoxication. Laxatives and cathartics won't cure constipation. They irritate the bowels into action and give temporary relief, but at the expense of upsetting completely the normal processes of evacuation. A far safer and more effective means of restoring normal bowel movements is the mineral oil treatment, advocated and prescribed for years by eminent specialists both in this country and abroad. Nujol is the purest form of refined white mineral oiL It is not a drug nor a bowel stimulant. It acts solely as a mechanical lubri cant, facilitating the passage of waste matter and helping to restore normal bowel activity. Nujol is odorless, colorless and tasteless. It is not absorbed by the system, hence may be taken in any quantity without harm. Write for booklet The Rational Treatment of Constipation." If your druggist hasn't it, we will send a pint bottle of NUJOL prepaid to inj point in United States oa receipt of 75c money order or stamps.
