Aside from tlie unpleasantness and an-

With the first indication of a cold, take
steps to check it at once. A simple, in

Much business of Importance was
transacted last night at the annual
meeting of the United Consumptive
Relief society, at the V. M, C. A.
Reports were made of the work
during the past year, officers were
elected for the coming year, the con-
stitution was amended In several sec-
tions, and the name of the organiza-
tion was changed to the K1 Paso
Health League*
Old Title Discarded.
The new name was adopted because
it gives a broader scope to the work
of the society. The word “consump-
tive” in the old title often aroused un-
just criticism and antagonism, it Is
said. However, the t»ork of the so-
ciety is stilt the same, i e. the pre-
vention and cure of tuberculosis.
Following are members of the ex-
ecutive committee- for the coming
year; T. J. Jones, .! A Potter, Rob-
ert Moore, J. H. Nations, E. M. Itray,

M. Urwlricks, It. B. Homan, J. M. Dicks j
and Howard Deafly volunteered to take 1
charge of the clinic. On February 15th, Jc
IfKib, our clinic was finally opened, and j
its need wan Immediately apparent. The
visiting nut to* revealed condition* that we
did not dream <»f and the number of vlsl-
tors to the clinic proved that It filled a ,
long-felt want.
Money Needed.
But a movement like fhls cannot stand
«*till: II must grow. In order to do this
it must have money for carrying on tMe
work. A canvas for membership met with
j fair response and assured the work for
a few months. An appeal to the city
council for funds brought uw $15 a month.
But the work unfolded and it became ap-
parent that a special visitor was needed
for the Mexif an settlement. Mr. FT. M.
Brav. Mr. Felix Martinez and your * bnlr-
mar» met the officers of the Mexican fra-
ternal ho< holes on Sunday*, September
15i.li, 1509. and placed the rnattei> he -
fore them. In a. short lime they agreed

sary for carrying on the work, and

this effect for six months.

Mr. Qrocer=
Did you ever stop to consider the fact—“That a man cannot serve two mas-
ters” and do the work successfully and satisfactorily?
Therefore a manufacturer or wholesaler ( ?) cannot hope to supply you with
an article, and at the same time supply your trade with the same article.
How can you expect to make a success of your business when you are deprived
of the right to sell your own customer?
os*
of the Association of American Hos-
pital Superintendents, bus boon con
nected with the work in El Paso only
since Oct. .18, but in that time she
has made a fine record and gives
promise of doing great, work next
> ear.
After Hie first of next year the new
nires- Ei Paso Health League will maintain
a free dispensary in the rooms of the
county court house now occupied by I
the Associated Charities.
By endeavoring to serve you and at the same time serve your patrons, would
that no* be like “serving two masters”?
Where do you come in? Is not the consuming trade your livelihood?
One “master” would be enough for ,us. We sell you and you alone. We
give you a chance for that livelihood. You make the sale and the profit, and at
the same lime know you are protected. That is “live and let live.”
Which loofe the best to you? ~K I,
When you sell our products you have the satisfaction of complete protection,
and every package sold is sold through you. Consider this.

for the society. It was said that

was only as 'personal favor to Mr.

Review* History.
1 feel sure that you will pardon me if
I take a few moments this evening: in re-
viewing the early history of this move-
ment. On April 20, 1908, at the .all ot
your chairman, delegates from different
lodges and so* letles met in the * hamper
of commerce to discuss ways und means
for organizing a society for the relief of
the needy tubercular who come to our
* itv. Tills meeting, attended by ovur 60
delegates, was far from a Jove fens!. in
the call for a meeting the chairman had
overlooked the Woman's Missionary Un-
ion, through no fault «»r his, but because
their names did not appear in the *itv
directory. This latter organization hud.
adopted a constitution in which, among
other things, it had pledged itself to take
up the work for consumptives, and had
Mtiietiy considered a leu-at ion at Atmpr.i,
N. M. It naturally felt that it was n
presumption for anyone else to und* r-
, take what they felt had been pre-empted,
arid tlielr members . anie fc> the meeting
to file their complaint But cooler head"
prevailed*. Finally the meeting elected
Martin Zlelonka. temporary chairman,
and Mrs. J. A. Potter, secretary, un mo-
tion, the chairman appointed a commit-
tee consisting of II. H Htevcns, .1. A.
lift per, Felix Martinez, liev Henry
Easter, Who, with the « hairmnn and »ec-
1-clary, were to devise ways and means,
and present a constitution at the, nex.
./•ailed meeting.

Look for Nurse.
Tliioughoui ab this time we were look-

not be laid for the asking and that women
of *xe< ullve abllltv and proper mcilical
training were difficult to obtain. But w*
made haste slowly; we felt that the work
needed an efficient porker and none other
would v.e employ.' Finally, on October

Treasurer Has Balance.
The report of the treasurer showed
balance of *l.504.25 on hand. This
(hum will enable the society to contln-
■ue Its Work for some time to come,
which Rteatly pleased the members,
as the lack of funds has been the
greatest handicap in the past.
The report of Superintendent 11
Grace Franklin showed- ihat 192 per-
sons had been treated at the free
elinie since its opening last Febru-
ary Of these 124 were males and
58 females The Americans number-
ed 103, the Mexican 64 and the bal-
ance was made up of persons of all
nationalities. Tho number of re vls
its made by the 192 patients was
over 900 and the number ot free pre-
scriptions filled was 579.
Miss Franklin advocated the estah
llshment of a sanatorium or tent city
where tubercular patients could be
treated to the best advantage and
where they would not have to do
their own cooking ns is the case at
present. She also showed the great
necessity of a ejt.v hospital.

WOOL SALES POSTPONED.
Sydney, N. S. W.. Nov. 1« Wool sales
have iu-,-n postponed Indefinitely as a
coitseuitenco of tho miners' strike. Tlte
railroad lines to the north are refusing
consignments m wool because of the con-
gestion of their territory traffic. The as
present laws providing for the dis-
position of these coal lauds are not
what they should be. Some improve-1
ments have been made in recent years!
but the rights of the public are not |
safeguarded. None of these land
should ho disiwsed of until legislation
is enacted which will provide a method
by which the coal can be developed
and as it is needed under such regula-
tions as will prevent speculative or
monopolistic holdings by a few great
interests and will yield to the nation
a fair monetary return. Under a leas-
ing system all these conditions can
be readily improved.
"Congress has wisely provided for
the great irrigation projects that have
been started but there Is immediate
need of legislation to control tin* use
and development of water power to
the end that as with other resources,
the public may, under a system of
franchise or lease, protect its own
great interests and obtain just com-
pensation.

made through the recent years will

Bluefields, Nicaragua Nov. 1C (via
wireless via Colon)—The provisional
government is transacting affairs in
an orderly manner and all American
interests are fully protected. Zela
va’s troops still hold Greytown, but
General Chamerro. with a large force
of. revolutionists, has a well fortified
position on the beach.
Prisoners in the hands of General
Chamerro say that many of the gov-
ernment soldiers are sick and that
the others are losing courage on ac-
count of the exhausting march through
the swamps and jungles.
Davila Issues Statement.
Puerto Cortez, Honduras, Nov. 16.
(via New Orleans Nov. 16)—As many
conflicting accounts of recent engage-
ments between the revolutionary and
government forces in Nicaragua have,
been reported here, the Associated
Press correspondent today wired Pres-
ident Davila of Honduras for the latest
official news from Nicaragua and re-
ceived a reply stating that the gov-
eminent, of Nicaragua has scored an-
other triumph over the revolutionist
froees at the junction of the, river
Colorado and the river San Juan,
where Gen. Salvador Toledo in a bat-
tle that lasted three days defeated and
dislodged General Emiliano Chamerro.
The government troops now occupy
Greytown.
It is probable that General Chamer-
ro has fallen back to effect a junction
with the army that General Estrada is
leading. It Is conceded here that al-
though General Estrada will make a
desperate struggle to regain lost
ground the odds Against him are very
great.
Vigil Explains His Position.
Mexico City. Nov. lti.—Francesco
Vigil, who has been appointed as the
representative of the Nicaraguan rev-

said tonight that his office is diplo-
matic. He explained that his posi-
tion was temporary and that his ap-
pointment came from the revolution-
ists' representative in Washington, in-
stead of from his chiefs In Nicara-
gua.
Mr. Vigil said the purpose of his
appointment was "To expose in Mex-
ico the methods of the government
of President Zelaya and do away
with the impression that the revolu-
tion was patronized by the United
States."
