Squads of policemen guard the Mexican quarter day and night. Food and other necessities were sent through the cordon under strict supervision. The mortality rate of the disease, which is allied to the bubonic plague, approaches 100 per cent. Ground squirrels probably brought the disease to Los Angeles.

Strong political influences are at work to have either the American born peeress, who was elected to par liament at Plymouth for the fourth time, or the Duchess of Atholl, an other successful woman candidate, in the next ministry. Lady Astor has had the greater political experience. It was confirmed today that Ram say MacDonald will present the resig nation of his government Tuesday. The prime minister put in a busy day winding up his affairs at No. 10 Downing street. King George has arrived at Buck ingham palace to receive MacDon ald’s resignation and commission Baldwin to succeed him. Baldwin’s task is an extremely dif ficult one. He must decide within the next few days how to allot 52 ministerships and under-secretary ships among 77 persons. Advocates of inclusion of Lady Astor in the cabinet point to the fact that Labor had Margaret Bon field in its cabinet, and that the women’s vote yvas a considerable factor in the Conservative landslide.

Dawes Concludes Campaign Without Single "Hell Maria” EVANSTON, 111., Nov. 3.—(By the Associated Press.) Charles G. Dawes made something over a hun dred speeches in his campaign as Republican nominee for vice presi dent without a single “Hell Maria”— the phrase with which he broke into print and into national prominence in 1919 when he returned from France after the World war. A backward look today over Dawes' campaign utterances showed he had left a collection of such terms as “pee wit politicians,” “political demagogues,” and "cowardly, trim ming, time-serving politicians” from Wyoming to Maine. But the “H:ll Maria” for which some of his au diences obviously waited never came forth. Mr. Dawes today, admitting he was "just a bit tired,” rested and read and smoked his pipe at his home here while waiting to see whether he would go to Washington next March, illness to the shock caused by Gen eral Sawyer’s recent death following so closely the death of her husband a little moie than a year ago.

VITAMIZEt TwATeT MAKES HENS LAY New Vitamine Discovery Gives Amaz ing Increase in Egg Yield Spring and summertime egg pro duction in the fall and winter months may now easily be had through the discovery of a remarkable new meth od of supplying those essential vitamines that are necessary for egg production and which are lacking in the feed at this season of the year. It has been found that loafing or molting flocks, when supplied with these vitamines, quickly begin to lay many times as many eggs, are out of the molt much sooner, and are put in prime condition for heavy winter laying. These essential vitaminds can eas ily be supplied by simply dissolving Vita-Gland Tablets in the flock’s drinking water. In addition to pure, concentrated vitamines, these tablets also contain Ovarian Gland Sub stances which rebuild and revitalize the egg producing glands of the hens, and hasten the development of the egg organs of pullets, starting them laying much sooner. « How to Get Yours Free To quickly introduce them to new users, the Vita-Gland Laboratories, 1221 Gateway Station, Kansas City, Mo., are offering to send two regu lar SI.OO packages of Vita-Gland Tab lets, postpaid, for only SI.OO. Or, If more convenient, you need send no money now, but give the postman SI.OO and postage on delivery of the two boxes. By selling Qne box to a neighbor you can get your own sup ply free. Moreover, if you are not gratified with the results, just say so and back comes your money. Now is the time to give your flock * good start for fall and winter lay ing. Eggs are high and going high er, and it Is by getting them now that bigger poultry profits are made, especially with the high cost of grain feed. As Vita-Gland Tablets are fully guaranteed you take no chance in Using them.
