There are more Indians living to
day within the territory originally
comprising Mexico than ever ex
isted at any one time in all the rest
of the Western hemisphere com
bined, according lo a bulletin is
sued by the National Geographic
Society of Washington.
“Of I he If),000,000 inhabitants of
Mexico fully 38 per cenl are pure
Indians and 43 per cent of mixed
blood, only I!) per cent being
whiles,” continues the bulletin.
“These 6,000,000 Indians, many of
whom are descendants of that won
derful race, the Aztecs, arc divided
into many linguistic fafuilics and
tribes, the numbers varying accord
ing lo Hie standards of dilFercnla-
lion adopted by each ethnologist.
Some aulluorilies group them inlo
I I families, wilh 51 languages and
00 dialects, while others make 16
family divisions, subdivided into
132 tribes.
“The majority of the pure-blood
ed Indians of 'Mexico are a quiet,
somewhat melancholy people. Even
on holidays, of which there are 131
on the Mexican calendar, they move
silently among the crowds, the men
either barefooted or wearing woven
sandals, their shoulders covered
with their striped scrapes, and the
women in their dingy blue rebosas
wrapped about them. In attire the
young girls, like the children of
Holland, are miniature replicas of
their mothers.
‘The pure-blood Indians of the
remote regions untouched by civ
ilization is more frequently than
otherwise a stalwart individutl of
upright character, moral, honest and
loyal. One of the finest examples
of his rare was Benito Juarez, a
member of the Zapotecas tribe of
Oaxaco. He was by turns a shep
herd, a student of divinity, gover
nor of Oxaxaca, minister of justice,
and finally president of the repub
lic.
“Porfirio Diaz, the outstanding
figure in Mexico history during the
last quarter of the nineteenth cen
tury, was also born in Oaxaca, and
according to his official biography
was one-fourth Indian. However,
some genealogists hold that he was
more nearly three-fourths Indian.

THE AGREEMENT WITH MEXICO
Our relations with Mexico, like
those with Germany and the En
tente powers, are taxing to the ut
most the skill, patience and re
sourcefulness of the administration.
President Wilson and Secretary
Lansing have successfully extricated
us from a score of difficult situa
tions, although each pitfall escaped
is succeeded by another no less
alarming.
The conference of generals at
Juarez that we hoped would settle
the vexatious questions that grew
out of Villa's wicked raid on Co
lumbus and the sending of an Amer
ica punitive expedition into Mexico
dissolved without putting any
agreement on paper, although, as we
write, there is reason to think that
General Scott, General Funslon and
General Obregio did reach some
private and personal understanding
that will make matters easier at
least for the present.
We are all determined that Villa
shall he caught and that the raiding
of American towns by frontier ban
dits shell stop; but we can see, too,
llial I he Mexicans do not like to
have a. large part of their country
overrun for an indefinite period by
alien soldiers, however praise
worthy is their errand. Il will be
good policy, therefore, to make
some concessions lo the Mexicans’
sense of dignity and permit their
own army to take over the chase
of Villa south of a certain line; hut
it is probably wise to insist on
keeping our own troops across Ihc
border until the Carranza forces
show themselves capable of dealing
with the bandits.
There are still limitless opportu
nities for trouble v with our southern
neighbor. Nearly the entire country
is disordered, and the Carranza ad
ministration has not yet given us
the impression of much firmness of
political capacity. But such as it
is, it lias won io the top in the
struggle of the last three years, and
most Americans hope that it wilt
show itself able to maintain itself
and to restore peace and order lo
a troubled and wasted land. As
long as il is decently regardful of
the national rights of the United
States and the personal rights of
American citizens, ii can count on
the friendly support of our own
government.—Youth’s Companion.

THE PRINTER’S TROUBLES
Just a tittle over a year ago, the
metal used for casting such a line
of type as you are now reading cost
8 cents a pound. The Gazette office
unpacked a lot today invoiced at
17 1-2 cents.
Newspaper is $20 a ton higher
than it was in May. 1915. A blue
ink used in job printing, which cost
$3 a pound, less 25 per cent one
year ago, isnow $4 a pound, net.
And these are only samples.
This prosperity we are having in
war-time is certainly expensive to
the printer.,. And so far no news
papers except a few of the week
lies that are too cheap to begin
with, have raised their prices, cither
for subscription or advertising.
The difference comes out of their
pioflts—and many of them wore
not making money before the war
began.—Tilton Gazette.
MAKE THE WORLD
A LITTLE BETTER
Make the world a little belter,
As you journey day by day;
Share some blessing with- another—
Lift somestone from out the way.
Speak a word of consolation
To Some mirthless misanthrope;
Heal some hurt or heal some sorrow,
If you have not gold—give hope!
Make the world a little better,
As you mingle in the throng;
Spare a tear for him that Sorrows—
Cheer the weary with a song.
When you overtake a pilgrim
Fainting on life’s sterile slope,
Wake his failing courage somehow
If you have not gold—give hope!
Make the world a little better,
As you briefly bide therein;
Break some captive’s galling fetter—
Lift some sinking soul from sin.
All of human resolution
Men require if they would cope
With life’s grief and disillusion—
If you have not gold—give hope!

SAVES DAUGHTER
Advice of Mother no Doubt Pre
vents Daughter’s Untimely End.
Ready, Ky.—“ I was not able to do
anything for nearly six months,” writes
Mrs. Laura Bratcher, of this place, “and
was down in bed for three months.
I cannot tell you how I suffered with
my head, and with nervousness and
womanly troubles.
Our family doctor told my husband he
could not do me any good, and he had
to give it up. We tried another doctor,
but he did not help me.
At last, my mother advised me to take
Cardui, the woman’s tonic. I thought
It was no use for I was nearly dead and
nothing seemed to do me any good. But
J took eleven bottles, and now I am able
to do all of my work and my own
washing.
I think Cardui is the best medicine in
the world. My weight has increased,
and 1 look the picture of health. ”
If you suffer from any of the ailments
peculiar to women, get a bottle of Cardui
today;. Delay is dangerous. We know
it will help you, for it has helped so
many thousands of other weak women
in the past 50 yeara.
