Only a short time ago Villa was at the head of a large army of fierce, undisciplined and highly soused troops and was only two jumps re- moved from the presidency of Mex- ico. To-day he is a scattered and dis- organized force, a menace to society, having lost his modus operandi and dther weapons, and being looked up- on in polite circles as a human cock- roach delegate from Kingston Lodge.

Personally, Villa is a coarse, un- pleasant man, with loose domestic ties and the unrefined tastes of the American coyote. A reward has been put upon his head, and there is a keen, bloodthirsty" desire in this country to sea him removed from the haunts of man with the aid of a hemp rope. The murder of one plain American citizen cannot be. avenged by the prompt and squealing demise of a thousand Mexican cut-throats in a state of hopeless inebriety, and while we are not a vindictive. peo- ple it would seem for the best inter. ests of society that Villa be put whee he will not murder anybody else unless he throws him into the furnace. .

WHY CHILLY WEATHER BRINGS RHEUMATISM Bays skin pores are closed and uric acid remains in blood. Rheumatism is no respecter of age, sex, color or rank. If not the? most dangerous of human afflictions it is one of the most painful. Those subject to rheumatism should eat less meat, dress as warnily as possible, avoid any indue exposure and, above] all, "drink lots of pure water. Rheumatism is caused by uric acid whichi is generated in the bowels and absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the Kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the hiood of this impurity. In damp and ly, cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do {double work, they become weak and | this | _ sluggish and fail to eliminate uric acid which keeps accumulating and circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness | and pain called rheumatism.
