Senor Zamacona boars a name which has occupied a promi nent place In the history of modern Mexico. His father, Manuel do Za macona, was distinguished In the early history of the Mexican Republic as it statesman, orator and scholar. He assisted Diaz to win his political leadership and was at one time Mexi can Secretary of State. In 1S77 ho came to this country as Mexican am bassador to the United States.

Custom among Spanish Freaking peoples has dictated that surnames shall be composed of the family names of both father and mother, but the Inconvenience of be ing addressed in this manner" has led the new Mexican ambassador to drop the final part of his signature and terminate it with his paternal name of Zamacona. "When L was national treasurer of Mexico some years ago," said Senor Zamacona, "I found it economical both in ink and time, when signing bonds, to use merely my father's name Americans are so likelv to con- (Jakes Home Baking Easy II Absolutely Pure The only baking powder made from Royal Crape Dream of Tartar HO alum.no lime phosphate sider the last part of a Spanish name ns the supname proper that I think I shall dispense with it."
