I s THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1913. THE MEXICO SITUATION LAXATIVE FOR OLD IN A CONDENSED FORM PEOPLE- H H D EVELOPMENTS in the past twenty-four Hours in revolt-seared Mexico indicate that the ill-fated republic of Madero faces the most menacing situation in many years' history of that country. Bloody battle is being fought in the streets of Mexico City, and anarchy reigns. Americans are in peril. American refugees arrive in Laredo, Texas, from Mexico City from whence they fled to escape danger of the battle in the streets of the Mexican capital. Southern P-cific railroad notified to haw .168 cars ready to trans port American troops rom San Antonio, Texas. Taft orders 5,000 United States ‘roops to be in readiness to leave at once to protect Americans. Six American battleships, under command of two rear admirals, are en route to Mexican waters. American Minister Henry Wilson and the German ambassador have demanded of Madero that the battle cease. American clubs and hotels are directly in path of the fire from Mex ican federal and rebel artillery. The rebels have liberated 5,000 of the most desperate Mexican prison ers from the old Belem jail. The British legation is under fire. . Two hundred Americans have taken refuge in El Paso from an uprising in Chihuahua. Rebels attempted to dynamite a train at Mochtezuma, but were cap tured by federal guards. The battle in the streets of Mexico City was resumed Wednesday morn ing at 6:35 o’clock, after a night of looting. Mexico City lias the appearance of a great armed camp, which is fast becoming a battlefield with dead and dying. Food supplies are almost at a prohibitive price. The fronts of all stores are all boarded up and the buildings are closed. The rebel forces are , s well armed as the troops of Madero, and ignore thf. demands that their leader Diaz surrender. Taft and naval and army commanders held all night conferences in Washington Tuesday night when it was decided to have soldiers in readi ness for intervention. The Seventeenth infantry at McPherson wiil 'be among those who will go, if United States troops are ordered across the border. What glasses are to weak eyes, Cascarets are to weak bowels-Try a 10-cent box TAFT ORDERS 5,000 TO Most old people must give to the bowels some regular help, else they suf fer from constipation. The condition Is perfectly natural. It is just as nat ural as it is for old people to walk slowly. For age is never so active as youth. The muscles are less elastic. And the bowels are muscles. So all old people need Cascarets. One might as well refuse to aid weak eyes with glasses as to neglect this gentle aid to weak bowels. The bowels must be kept active. This is important at all ages, but never so much as at fifty. Age is not a time for harsh physics. Youth may occasionally whip the bowels Into activity. But a lash can't be used every day What the bowels of the old need is a gentle and natural tonic. One that can be constantly used without harm. The only such tonic is Cascarets and they cost only 10 cents per box at any drug store. They work while you sleep.—(Advertisement.)

CHICAGO, Feb. 11.—Prosecution of the Chicago board of trade for violation of the Sherman anti-trust law in fix- in the price of foodstuffs has been or dered by Attorney General Wickersham, according to the Tribune today. It is said f the' proceedings will be instituted in a bill in equity to be filed in the federal district court here today or tomorrow. The big grain exchange is to be ar raigned for fixing what is known as the “call’’ price of grain each day at the close of trading. Under a rule of the board no broker is permitted to deal in grain at any but the “call” price from the closing of the exchange on one day till the opening of trading ■ the next day. The result of this rule is-the fixing of the price of grain during a period of about twenty-one hours each day. Only during about three hours of trad ing is the price subject to fluctuations. The penalty for violation of this rule by any broker is suspension or expul sion. The consequence is, violations are few. NOTHING EQUALS S.S.S, FOR OLD SORES Nothing equals S. S. S. as a cure for Old Sores, because nothing equals it as a blood purifier. The source and supply of every chronic sore is im pure blood; the circulation is infected with germs and morbid accumula tions which are being constantly deposited intotheopen place. This causes jlceration and inflammation of the flesh tissues and produces a condition ipon which salves, washes, lotions, etc., can have no curative effects. The blood must be purified of all I was afflicted with a aore on my face of four years’ standing. It was a small pimple at first but It gradually grew larger and worse in every way jntil I became alarmed about it and consulted sev eral physicians. They all treated me, but the sore continued to grow worse. I b&v 8. S. S. advertised and commenced its use, and after taking it awhile T was completely cured. My blood is now pure and healthy from the effect of S. S. 8., and there has not been any sign of the sore since S. 8. S. cured it. West Union, Ohio TH08. OWEN' infectious matter before the circu lation can nourish the flesh tissues and stimulate them to the healthy condition necessary to heal the sore. S. S. S. heals old sores by going down to the fountain-head of the trouble and driving out the germs and morbid matters which are keeping the nicer open. Then as new, rich blood is carried to the place, the healing begins, all discharge ceases, the inflammation leaves, new tissue and healthy flesh are formed, and soon the ulcer is well. You are not wasting time when you use S. S. S., but you are giving yourself the benefit of the very best treatment for old sores.

(By Associated Press.) CHARLESTON. W. Va., Feb. 12.— With marked money in their pockets, al leged to be the price of their votes in tlie United • States # senatorial contest, i which is causing a deadlock in the leg- jislafcure, four members of the house | of delegates and one member of the i senate of West Virginia were arrested' jin & otel here late yesterday afternoon I by Sheriff Bonner Hill in the presence 1 I of the public prosecutor, Thomas C. Townsend. They were taken before Justice of the .Peace C. W. Dering, where they each waived a hearing and; were held in $5,000 bond. The accused ' men are Representatives U. S. G. ■ Rhodes, Dr. II. F.. Asbury, David E. Hill, Rath Duff and Senator B. A. Smith. Ever since the legislature assembled j there have been rumors that money was being used to influence members of both houses in the interest of some one of the senatorial candidates, but the stories were not supported by. tangible evidence and the entire matter was passed as an ordinary feature of a hard fought political battle. $50,000 FOR VOTES. Recently, however, Rhodes is alleged to have said, according to the prosecu tor. that for something over $50,000 he could change six votes in the two houses. Acting on this report, it is stated. Prosecutor Townsend employed detectives. They had been watching the balloting for several weeks and were in close touch with the situation. After the arrests, it was said, arrangements had been made for the change in voting this week. As reported, It was to start with a change of a vote or two the first day, followed by other changes until the necessary number had been won over. Part of the program was carried out, and yesterday was arranged as ‘pay day.’ The men were called to a ho tel and, it is charged, they were there paid with marked bills. In an ad joining room Prosecutor Townsend and Sheriff Hill awaited the signal that was to lay bare the alleged bribery. They had only a few minutes to wait, for, the transaction over, the door was opened and the men invited to enter.
