Uk, "Can ca-

kind of catarrh
that one has in

And if so, what
does it do to the stomach T
Tea, the same kind of catarrh that
one has in the nose the same kind of
catarrh that affects the cavities of the
head, the same kind of catarrh to
which the throat is subject, may af-
fsct the mucous membranes of the
stomach.
As I told you in previous articles,
ths stomach is lined with a mucous
membrane. So la the nose and the
throat. Wherever there Is a mucous
membrane there is a liability to ca-
tarrh. Catarrh is essentially a dis-
ease of the mucous membrane.
Pe-ru-na Removes the Cause.
It la perfectly useless to take ar-
tificial dlgestants. or to take dyspep-
sia ramsiUos. What Is needed Is a
catarrh remedy,
P*-l u-na is not only a catarrh
rftaisdy, hut is a dlgestant. There-
fore Pe-ru-na will not only tempo-
rarily assist the stomach in Its func-
tion and thus give prompt relief, but
it tends also towards eradicating the
catarrh. The cause of most cases
of dyspepsia, heart burn, sour rls-
ln|, fall feeling after meals, coated
tongue, constipation, the cause of
moat cases of this sort is catarrh of
the stomach.

Children's Home and Aid Society,
does not believe parents of an adopted
baby can give proper attenUon to it
after twins ha\e arrived in that same

district court against J. M. Carpenter
and wife to recover possession of
Alma Kodgers, a child which was
placed in the home of the defendants,
Jan. 31, 11*11, by Superintendent Mor-
ris.
Twins recently have been born Id
the Carpenter home, and these with
the other children. Rev. Mr Morris
believes will prevent the adopted child
receiving proper attention. He asks
the court to issue an order that the
Carpenters deliver the child over to
the children's home.

Wants Divorce
So Can Marry
Former Husband
(Special to The Telegram)
FT. WORTH, Jan. 18 —Mrs. Pearl
Wiley has paid dear for the sweet
words that Charles Wiley whispered
into her ear, according to a divorce
petition filed for her by Attorney
Clarence Parker Saturday morning in
the district court. For seven years
she alleged that Wiley persuaded her
with protestations of love, and finally
induced her to divorce her first hus-
band, Henry Russell, a citizen of
Riverside, and to marry him.
When Mrs. Wiley goes before the
court to tell her story she will relate
frankly how she realized her great
mistake and learned too late that Rus-
sell was the only man that she could
ever love, and that it is their Inten-
tion to marry again, provldiug the di-
vorce is granted.
Mrs. Wiley says in her petition that
she and Wiley were married in Falls
county, Sept. 28, 1912, and lived to-
gether as man and wife until Nov. 3,
when they separated and have since
lived apart.
She states that for seven years prior
to their marriage and while she was
living with her first husband, by per-
suasion and misrepresentations Wiley
induced her to secure a divorce and
marry him, promising to allow her
two children to live with them. So
persistent was his wooing, she al-
leges, that she became incapable of
cool reflection and that she was over-
persuaded to take the steps as he de-
sired.
After their marriage, Mrs. Wiley
continues, her husband would not
permit the children to live with
them and told her that If she per-
sisted In her determination to have
them live with them he would leave
her. She also alleges cruelty and
drunkenness on the part of her hus-
band.
Mrs. Wiley was married to her first
husband, Russell, Dec. 24, 1906, at
Balllnger, Texas, and they lived to-
gether as man and wife until July 16,
1912. She secured the divorce from
Russell Sept. 21, and was married to
Wiley Sept. 28. Russell did not con-
teat the divorce.
MANYARESTARVING
IN OUR CITIES
Robert Clark of Houston Comments
On Plant Juloe, the New Tonic.
Our cities ars filled with starving
people, not with starving stomachs
but starved nerves, nerve-racked, dis-
traught, debilitated people are found
everywhere. The following letter
from a well known suburban resident
of Houston tells of a nerve condition
that is applicable to thousands of
others:
Houston, Tex., April 25.
Dear Sir"—I have been a sufferer
from nerve derangement, constipa-
tion and stomach troubles for years
I had headaches, could not sleep and
was nervous and Irritable all the
time. I was really In a desperate con-
dition when I began taking "Plant
Juice." It braced me up at once and
has removed all my troubles and
made me well and happy. I shall al-
ways be grateful to "Plant Juice."
Tours truly,
ROBERT CLARKE,
R. F. D. No. 2.
"Plant Juice" Is the greatest nerve
tonic of the age. It embodies all
the essences that the starved nerves
need. Those who are dyspeptic, de-
bilitated, nervous and run-down will
find It Just what they are looking for.

Texas Is still the home of the cow-
boy. South America as a land of
promise to the cow yunchex is a de-
lusion and o snare, the people un-
friendly. the climate disappointing,
and conditions there in general, not
conducive to the prosperity of Amer-
icans without capital
Elmo Holcombe, formerly a "boss'
at the Swenson ranch in Jones county,
is authority for this statement.
Holcombe, one of a party of seven
cow punchers who left last' August
for "Tex" "Richard's . 6,000,000-acre
ranch In Argentine Republic, has re-
turned to Fort Worth and is effect-
ually cured q/ any desire to follow
his calling la that southern republic.
Texas Good Enough for Me.
"Texas is good enough for me," he
declares. "Cattle punching in Argen-
tine Republic la a big joke. We camp
ed for six weeks in the jangle three
miles from Richard's land without
so much as swinging a rope or hand
ling a branding iron. Richard hadn't
bought a single head of stock other
than a few mules when I left a few
weeks ago, and had taken no steps
toward improving any part of his «,-
000,000 acres. He had two or three
cattle deals under consideration dur-
ing the time I was there. When the
last one fell through at Buenos Ayres
I decided I had about all I wanted, so
I took the next steamer north.
"All this talk about opportunities
for cowboya to make big money In
Argentine Republic Is without any
foundation. The pay Is no better than
here. The food is no good and the
mosquitoes and ticks and tha hot
weather make life miserable.
Foreign Cowboys Punk.
"The South American cow punch-
ers are so punk they're funny. A
tenderfoot could ride better than most
of them. They can sure handle a rope
and they can hit a bull's eye with a
knife at thirty feet every time. That's
about the best I pan say for them.
My advice to cowboys Is to stay away
from South America.
"I had lots of interesting experien-
ces on my trip, b}it I don't care to
take It over again."; „ ' ]
Holcombe left port Worth August
17. Accompanying tti£ were Capt.
Prank ojhnson ofi We*»tberford, the
leader of the paTO; iGlenn Cunning-
ham and James Henrietta,
Lawrence Clary from the Swenson
Brothers' ranch and Frank Waddell
and Dick Harris of Midland. The
party was formed by Johnson. tHio
acted as Richard's representative.
Went by Now York.
They went to New York City by way
of Chicago and there boarded the first
steamer that left for South America
Their first port of fall was Liverpool.
The steamer remained there for sever-
al days and the cowmeh paid a brief
visit to London.
"We wore our big hats and our
boots and we were a sure enough
curiosity to Englishmen," says Hol-
combe. "People wo,uld watch us for
a block away and turn around and
stare when we had passed them.
There were lots of things to amuse us,
too. We couldn't get used to the
stovepipe hats and the tight payts
worn by men. I didn't see a well-
fitting pair all the time we were in
England. The barber shops aren't
fitted up much like ours. They have
stlffback chairs and you have to sit
bolt upright all ths time you are be-
ing shaved. "
I asked one barber who had a
pretty nice shop why fie didn't have
chairs like ours. He said the duty on
them was too high.
Sees Foreign Bands.
The ship stopped at ports in Spain
and In France, at Lisbon, Portugal and
at the Madera Islands. The cheap-
ness of a peculiar white seedless grape
sold at Lisbon ImpreMKd Holcombe.
For two bits you could get enough
to half fill a washtub," he said.
The Madera Islands were one of
the most Interesting sights of the
whole trip. From where we anchor-
ed off shore we could see hundreds
of white villas half hidden among
trees."
The ship as it lay at anchor was
visited by hordes of bqys and young
men who swam out to dive for coins
thrown overboard by the passengers.
The skill of the youthful swimmers
created much comment among the
cowboys.
Travel 1,000 Miles Inland.
On its way down the South Ameri-
can coast the ship touched at Pef-
nambuco, Bahia, Rio de Janeiro afld
Santos, and then ascended the river
to Buenos Ayres. Here the Texans
disembarked and boarded a train for
the interior. They reached the end
If the line, 1,000 miles inland, after
three days and nights of travel. Un-
der the guidance of Warren Fitzgerald
a former Texas deputy sheriff, who
had met them In Buenos Ayres, they
started to Richard's land, 260 miles
distant. Two wagons hauled by mules
were required to transport their bag
gage and supplies. The progress of
the party was slow, for the roads were
of sand "two feet deep," according to
Holcombe. The mosquitoes and the
heat and the dust rendered the trip
anything but agreeable to the cow-
boys. Indignity was added to discom-
fort, for their saddle animals were
mules.
Boy, 10, Is Guide.
The first night out they camped on
the line of the Tropic of Copicorn.
The last thirty miles of the Journey
which required forty-eight hours, were
traversed under the direction of a 10-
year-old native boy with a marvelous
knowledge of the country. Innumer-
able trails forked o'iit before them as
they progressed, but their youthful
guide was never at a loss how to pick
the right one.
They pitched camp four miles from
a creek In the midat of a semltropical
Jungle, with ten times the brush
snd undergrowth than any of the
Texans had ev#r seen before. They
were to wait here until Richard com-
pleted a purchase of cattle and then

Holcombe grows sarcastic when he
refers to his experiences In this camp.
"We expected the cattle to arrive
almost any day," he says, "so we
didn't at first mind the waiting. We
built a little shed of bamboo poles
and brush for our supplies and tried
to keep busy. Our princlpa' occupa-
tion was 'toMn'' spools of fence wire
and other stuff to the camp from a
creek four miles away. The native
freighters had a habit of dumping It
here and It was up to some of the
bunch to finish the trip for them.
'We had lots of visitors, though the
natives seemed to regard us more
as curiosities than friends They ex-
amined our guna and saddles and oth-
er equipment and apparently thought
their own outfits a whole lot better.
Visit Other Ranches.
"We made the moat of our oppor-
tunity to return the compliment and
made several trips to neighboring
ranches.
"The Argentine cow puncher is a
human freak. His saddle Is about the
size of a postage stamp. He piles a
lot of skins on top and keeps the
whole works oiujrlth two cinches. The
saddle hasn't any horn and when he
wants to rope a steer he knots his
rope into a big ring fastened to thie
cinch just back of his right leg. He
rides barefoot, with stirrups just large
enough to stick in three toes. He's
the poorest excuse for a horseman that
ever happened. There's no broncho
busters there and not one man out
of a hundred will tackle a horse or
mule if he shows a little temper."
The Argentine cowboys excel the
Amet-lcans in roping, however, ac-
cording to Holcombe.
l^jHTts Ht>pe.
"You have to gi«e fhcsn otedlt fo^
that," he admits. "I^e sden them run
along on foot swinging a loop twice
as big as a man and tangle a steer
up so quick he didn't know how it
happened. Their game wouldn't suit a
Texas cowboy in lots of ways. If they
want to cut out a bunch of cattle, they
do It on foot and it takes all day.
One reason for this, I suppose. Is the
frequency of armadillo holes. The ar-
madillo burrows like a gopher. He
is bigger, however, and he makes a
bigger hole-—so big In fact, that when
a horse steps into one he sinks up to
his knees.
The cattle themselves didn't suit
me. They are pretty fair to look at,
but are tall, 'rangy' animals, not filled
out like our Herefords."
Though the Texans were camped a
few miles from a tribe of Indians,
they were never molested.
Indians Didn't Bother.
"Sometimes when we were eating
dinner we would look around and see
ten of fifteen sitting a hundred yards
away watching us, without a word,"
Holcombe says. "They came so quiet-
ly that We did Hot hear them. After
a bit we would look around again and
find that they bad gone away just
as quietly as Obey came."
Thodgh of fine physique, these In-
dians, according to Holcombe, are
very Indolent. They can say but one
English Word—"tobacco." This they
smoke in a "pipe" mads of a bamboo
stick. A section of a joint serves as
the bowl. Thefr food is fruit and a
bean similar to that of the mesqulte
plant. They are fond of a fermented
drink made of these beans soaked In
water in a large cowhide. While the
beans are ripe, Holcombe declares, the
Indians remain constantly Intoxicated.
Their "Jag months" are October, No-
vember and December.
Cut Way Along.
The only weapon which these In-
dians appear to use Is a species of
machete or long knife, with which
they cut the underbrush and tough
running vines as they travel. The na-
tives make a similar use of this knife
and according to Holcombe can pro-
ceed on foot much faster than a man
can on a horse can ride.
At their camp the Texans were
forced to sleep out of doors sxposed
to the attacks of what Holcombe de-
clares to be "the meanest mosquitoes
I ever struck."
This with other conditions with
which he oame In contact, caused H6I-
combe's sudden decision to return to
Texas when he went to Buenos Ayres
six weeks after, his arrival at the
borders of the Richard's ranch. He
left Buenos Ayres together with Cun-
ningham and Clary. They boarded a
steamer returning to the United States
by way of ths West Indies and land-
ed at New York. Cunningham and
Holcombe returned direct to Texas,
while Clary decided to go by steamer
to New Orleans and make his way
back by easy stages.
Have Many Souvenirs.
The cowboys brought back many
quaint souvenirs of their trip, includ-
ing ostrich eggs, which can be bought
In the Argentine Republic three for s
Bolivian half dollar.

Fleets of Turks and Allie Engaged In
Throe Hour Battle.
(By Associated Press)
ATHENS, Jan. 18.—The fleets of
the 'Turks and the Allies engaged In
a general battle this morning. Ths
engagement lasted three hours. Only
one Oreek was wounded, while tha
Oreek warships were not damaged,
according to a long dispatch sent by
Admiral Countourlotls to the govern-
ment.
The reports state that the Turkish
fleet consisted of the battleships
Kheyr-Ed-Dln, Barbarosa, Targut
Rels, Messudieh and Assar-I-Tewflk,
the cruiser Hamldleh and 12 destroy-
ers and torpedo boats The Oreek
fleet Included battleships Averoff,
Hydra, 8petsal and Pesara and eight
gunboats and destroyers.
The following description of the
engagement was sent by the Gov-
ernor Tendeso:
"The naval engagement began at
10:25 o'clock In the morning. Both
sides fought desperately. The Turks

firing at long intervals against the
Averoff, which was pursuing at a
distance of 6,000 metres and rapidly
overhauling ths enemy.

ended at 2:3-0 p. m. when the enemy
re-entered the Dardanelles.

In smoke but continued to fire slow*
