M., where the main body of Brigadier General John J. Pershing’'s expeditionary force awaits word to cross into Mex- | ico in search of Francisco Villa, was | the important development today at| Fort Sam Houston. where Major | General Frederick Funston was ar- ranging the final details of the ex-| pedition. In military circles an at- titude of expectancy succeeded the tightening of the censorship. i Giving as his reason for the action making public all the essential facts| that he is trying to keep secret from to General Pershing to seize the tel- egraph office at Columbus, guard telephone wires leading out of the town and closely watch all automo- bile and other routes to telegraph siations in nearby towns. No Troops Cross. After stating late this afternoon that | no troops had yet crossed the border, General Funston also Instituted a close censorship on all proceedings within Fort Sam Houston. It was indicated nouncement from headquarters would come only actual start of the expeditionary force into Mexico. Once General Pershing has 1éd his column across the Rlo Grande, it was indicated the censorship will be loosened and the public will be adequately informed on the expedition's progress. An additional factor in the settling down of silence on the progress of events on the border was the action of the Mex- ican consul general here, T. R. Beltram, this afternoon. He wired every Mexican in his district, which embraces the bor- der states of Texas and New Mexico, not to do or say anything that might compli- cate the present delicate situation. Sup- pression of public discussion and unfa- vorable comment was primarily urged, but the order was expected also to help guard the movement of American troops. At Fort S8am Houston it was pointed out that if the seizure of the telegraph office and guarding of telephone wires and automobile routes did not put a stop to the leakage of important border news at Columbus, it might be necessary to establish martial law. The news situation also will b watshed closely at E| Paso. The transfer of General Pershipg from El Paso to Columbus has necessitated another important assignment. Brigadier General George Bell, jr., commander of the Fifth brigade, with headquarters at San Antonlo, was ordered by General Funston today to proceed to El Paso and assume command of troops t.ere. Gen- eral Funston saild that the growing im- portance of the Kl Paso contingents necessitated the assignn ent of an officer of General Bell's rank to take charge of them. General Bell will act’ under the orders of General Funston in looking after the border situation when the expeditionary forces pass into Mexico. The Twenty-third infantry, from Galveston, passed through S8an An- tonio today on its way to the base of operations. Many Amerlcans are arriving In San Antonio on their way nortu, after for- that the next an- southern department saking their occupations in Mexico be- | with the | enroute | cause of fear that conditions may become unsettled when the American troops pass the border. The bustle and hutry that has prevailed at Fort SBam Houston since President Wilison signified his intention to have Villa captured was succeeded today by quiet. General Funston's staff returned to the disposal of routine business, prac- tically all details for the pursuit of Villa having been taken care of.

NEW YORK, N. Y.—In a_recent dis course Dr. K. Sauer, Specialist, of this city, said: “If you were to make an ac- tual blood test of all people who are il you would probably be greatly astonished at the exceedingly large number who lack iron and who are ill for no other reason than the lack of fron. The mo- ment iron is supplied all their multitude of dangerous symptoms disappear. With- out iron the blood at once loses the power to change food into living tissue, and therefore nothing you eat does yol any good; you don't get the strength out of it. Your food merely passes through your system like corn through a mill with the rollers so wide apart that the mill can't grind. As a result of this continuous | blood and nerve starvation, people be- come generally weakened, nervous and all run-down, and freauently develop all sorts of conditions. One is too thin; an- is burdened with fat; some are 50 weak they can hardly walk; some think they have dyspepsia, kidney or_liver trouble; some can't sleep at night; others are sleapy and tired all day; some’ fusey and irritable; some skinny and. bloodless, but all lack physical power and endurance. In sich cases it is worse than foollshness to take stimulating medi- clnes or narcotic drugs, which only whip up _your fagging vitai powers for the moment, maybe at the ekpense of your lita latér on. No matter wnat any one tells you, If you are not strong and well £, to yourself to mako the fol- ng test: See how long you can work or how far u can walk without becom- ing tired, Next take two five-grain tabs other unhealthy | lets of ordinary nuxated iron three timea | per day after meais for two weeks. Then test vour astrength agaln and see for yourself how much you have od. T wve seen dozens of nervous, people who were alling all double, and even triple their strength and endurance and entirely get rid of their symploms of dyspepsia, liver ana other troubles in from ten to fourteen days' time #lmply by taking fron in the proper form, and this, after they had in run-down the time | some cases 'been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. You can talk as you please about all the won- ders wrought by new remedies, but when you come down to hard facts there is nothing like ggod old iron to put color In your cheeks and good, sound, healthy flesh on your bones. It Is also a Rreat nerve and stomach strengthener and the best blood builder in the world. The only trouble was that the old forms of fnor- ganlc fron, like tincture of from, iron acetate, ete., often ruined people’s teeth, upset (heir ‘stomachs and were not as- similated, and for these reasons they frequently did more harm than good.
