Sales are increasing, prices are looking firmer and there is joy all through the business. In 1907 and 1908 the lumber busi- ness on the Pacific coast went to the bad.

Injections of mor- phine were my only reliefs for short periods of time. - T became so sick I had to undergo an operation in New Orleans, which benefited me for two vears. When the same pain came back one day I was so sick that I gave up hopes of living . A friend ad- vised me to try your Swamp-Root and I at once commenced using it. The first bottle did me so much good that I purchased two more bottles. I am now on my second bottle and am feeling like a new woman. I pass- ed a gravel stone as large as a big red bean and several small ones. I have not had the least feeling of pain since taking your Swamp-Root and I feel it my duty to recommend this great medicine to all suffering hu- manity. Gratefully yours, MRS. JOSEPH CONSTANCE, Rapides Par. Bcho, La. Personally appeared before me, this 15th day of July, 1911, Mrs. Joseph Constance, who subscribed the above statement and made oath that the same is true in substance and in fact. WM.

UNITED STATES MUST HELP MEXICANS, IS BELIEF (Continued from Page 1) place part of a bond issue with Ar- gentine bankers. The bulk cf the transaction must, however, be han- dled by New York financiors. Many Counterfeits. Re-establishing Mexico’s financial system presents many difficulties to Carranza. Hundreds of counterfeit issues of money are afloat. Villa has issued millions of currency now valueless. In Mexico City alone there are a score of repudiated issues. Huerta’s currency is worthless. Carranza, who has announced that he will establish a gold standard for Mexico, with a new currency system similar to the federal reserve act of this country, but he probably will not be able to do it until a new Mexi- can congress is legally elected. Payment to Be Effected. Regarding the immense debt burd- en faced by Carranza, payment will be effected, according to information here, through claim commissions. Carranza will assent to mixed claims commissions to deal separately with each country presenting claims. As- surance by Carranza that he would honor foreign claims was one of the conditions upon which he was recog- nized as chief ‘executive. These claims total about $300,000,000. The Mexican mixed claims com- mission will, it is reported, be com- posed of representatives of the inter- ested nations, but the United States will not officially participate in col- lection of claims of other nations. The claims Carranza assumes runs back five years from the ousting of President Diaz. No claims for prop- erty destroyed and confiscated during that and successive revolutions have ever _been paid. This' involves lengthy and complicated negotiations before payment of the claims, to es- tablish national respomsibility for property losses in the many major and minor revolts. Get Many Claims. Solicitor Cone Johnson of the state department has active charge of the American claims. Many of these have been on file for years, awaiting re-establishment of a stable government from which payment could be demanded. Railroad, min- ing, oil and ranching interests are the principal American claimants. Americans are stock and bond hold- ers of the Mexican National and other railroads and telegraph com- panies which have suffered the brunt of revolutions. Only a small part of the American claims, which now aggregate about $150,000,000, have been filed with the state department. Others are be- ing received daily. Mrs. E. L. Benner and daughters, Dolly and Alice, and Mrs. Keihm ar- Tived this morning from Miessie, N. M., where they have spent the sum- mer with Mrs. Benner’s parents. Mrs. Keihm will visit at the Benner home for some time. Chris Meyers left this morning for Florence, S.
