TRUTH REVEALED
ABOUT VJALiTAS
Repeated Analysis bj' Chemists Prove
Certain Points Beyond
Question.
There are constant inquiries from
people who want to know something
of the scientific nature of Vitalitas.
The question is asked whether its ef-
fectiveness is due entirely to its
chemical properties which include
iron sodium magnesium sulphur
aluminum and traces of other min-
erals or whether there is some un-
known added force of Nature that
makes it so quickly responsive.
Vitalitas is new to the chemist
and its Ingredients as compounded
within the earth have a different
meaning in chemistry and medicine.
Vita litas must be considered as a
whole and not with respect to its
indivdual properties. The truth of
this is clearly shown when an effort
is made to build up Vita litas synthet-
ically. The ingredients may be
compounded in the same proportions
but the result is no more Vitalitas
than water is wine and its use as a*
medicine is practically nothing com-
pared to VJtaMtas.
There is nothing known in Nature
that equals Vitalitas as a tonic and
corrective. It is wonderfully ef-
fective and daily thousands of suf-
ferers are finding new health in its
use. For derangements generally of
stomach liver kidneys bowels and
blood and wherever a tonic is need-

by the Italian war office today.
The announcement says:
"In the steep rugged zone of the
Furva valley the enemy who on the
fourth had reconnoitered by patrols
which were immediately driven back
through the Vicz pass (10000 feet
high) delivered an attack on the
night of the 10th across the Forno
glacier against our troops posted
near the hotel of the same name
while another detachment advanced
through the Cedevalespass (11000
feet) against those of our troops
who occupied Capanna Cedez. The
watchfulness of our Alpine troops
who notwithstanding glaciers and
high peaks are Incessantly active
succeeded In frustrating this bold
double maneuver and the enemy was
soon repulsed. He was then counter
attacked and forced to flee.
"On the Carso plateau during the
day of the 11th no event of special
Importance transpired. Only small
skirmishes are reported."

no more troops and that none would
be sent without his request.
General Funston has been author-
ized to show Governor Ferguson his
message from Secretary Garrison
saying he can have as many troops t s
he thinks necessary.
The Carranza agency’s dispatches
today contained a categorical denial
from General Nafarette that any of
his troops had crossed into Texas.
Other advices expressed the opinion

BROWNSVILLE Tex. Aug. 14
One Mexican was killed today near
Lyford. a short distance north of
here by soldiers and peace offi-
cers. Soldiers shortly before day-
light went to a ranch house near
Lvford where It was reported a
Mexican accused of wounding Night

last w’eek was in hiding.
The Mexican was arrested and was
shot when he made a break to es-
cape from an automobile in which
he was being taken to Lyford. Rang-

Plain of San Diego Rules.
That the raiders are acting under
the “Plan of San Diego" was indl-
rated in the reports of I'nitcd Slates
: army officials reaching the head-
quarters of the Southern Depart-
ment. at San Antonio. The reports
quoted from literature said to have
been distributed in large quantities in
the border counties of Texas.
The killing of a Mexican supposed
to have been a member of one of the
bands of marauders at Mercedes
Texas last night was the latest death
to be reported in connection with the
outbreaks. Near Mercedes three
Mexicans had been killed several
hours previously and twenty-two
horses belonging to the raiders cap-
tured.
Numerous unconfirmed reports of
killings and battles between the raid-
ers and soldiers reached here.
No Fight at Edinburgli.
Reports of fighting between Mexi-
can bandits and citizens last night at
Edinburgh today are shown to have
been erroneous and to have origin-
ated through failure of a messenger
who called Brownsvilh by teh
to give any details before he left the
Instrument. The messenger evident-
ly had been sent from the scene of
the Impending attack to call for aid
and without having definite informa-
tion told the Brownsville end that
fighting was in progress. A few
armed men were seen but there was
' no firing. No further outbreaks
I have been reported today.
Officials here in answer to the
statement of General Nafarette Car-
ranza commander at Matamoros that
i he had but 500 troops on the
t border say that there are more than
i two thousand troops in the zone de-
scribed by the Mexican genera l . Naf-
farette had made the statement to
i show that the supposed 1000 Mexi-
cans reported to have crossed into
Texas to breed uprisings were not

SAYS WOMEN MUST BE DEMOCRATIC
Miss Betty Lee of New York grandniece of (.eiicral Robert E. Lee

Lee of course had to draw an analogy to the Civil War. She says that the
mistake which the women of the south made and a mistake whi ill but
ruined the country was the lack of democracy and incentive t< rk. To
rehabilitate a country after a war. in her opinion requires the forgetting
of all social distinction and the buckling down to real hard work. Tr ue
democracy and work. Is Miss Lee's recipe. Sire herself has plenty of social
position but is inclined to work.
