VILLA IS CLOSELY

WATCHED DESPITE PEACEFUL ACTIVITY

MEXICO CITY, June 29. Despite his repeated assurances that he is no longer a bandit but a gentleman farmer of the state of Durango, the move

ments of Francisco Villa are being closely watched In official circles here. To some observers it Is difficult to believe that this former guerrila has accustomed himself to the routine of ranch life and 13 now find

ing in his growing crops and lowing herds the contentment that a man of his tremendous nervous energy de5 rived in the past from daring deeds of warfare. Is Villa the staunch friend of the Obregon administration that his friends claim for him? Will Villa stay out of politics and play no part in the forthcoming congressional elections? In the event of a serious threat against Obregon's power would Villa rally his 4,000 ranchers in behalf of the president or would he lead hl3 men in a new revolution? These are the frequent questions of the street here and the answers are as varied as those who make reply. The pacification of Villa Is proclaimed by the friends of Provisional

President de la Huerta as the one big

achievement of his short administration in 1920. To secure the peace pact

with the famous bandit It was necessary for the Mexican government to grant him an extensive tract of land

on which his faithful followers, num

bering some 4,000, might work and

6 prosper. There was also a transfer of considerable cash which Villa said

he needed to develop his new ranches,

It i3 also understood that one of the stipulations of the agreement was i that Villa was to stay out of politics. t Enthusiastic Farmer

Villa settled in the state of Durango and the few persons who have visited

hiB hacienda report that ho is an enthusiastic farmer. Of late, however, stories have been creeping out of the north to the effect that furrowed fields and blooded dairy stock are commencing to pall and that to relieve the monotony, the captor of Columbus Is mixing just a trifle in the state politics of Durango. Some reports are that he has been asked to run for governor and has consented, but persons close to the man deny the rumors. No matter what the facts the uncertainty of Villa's action is causing considerable comment in the capital which within the past two months has been put on the qui vive several times by "authentic" statements that the Durango rancher was on his way

to Mexico City to consult with his president. He has never arrived and there is small possibility that he will

come. All of which has merely served to revive the months' old questioning Will Villa stand fast no matter what 1 turmoil might arise in Mexico City? If one is to believe stories of Villa's

with interest. It is to be shown at the Washington theatre Friday and Saturday. Not only ' is the well

talents have turned an excellent story into one of the best motion pictures it has been our good fortune to see in many months. The theme is undying love the love a wife holds for her husband and which inspires her to make every sacrifice possible for his sake. Miss Stewart as the wife of the young

millionaire, who sticks to him loyally through the storms that break soon after their marriage, makes an appealing figure. Darrel Foss is cast as the young husband, and none could have portrayed the difficult role better than

The story contains some sharp con

We are glad to place "The Woman

The sin of Martha Queed existed

omly in the poisoned mind of her suspicious, tyrannical, bigoted father, a role enacted by that splendid actor, Joseph J. Dowling. Hewas so corrupt of mind that he believed the lying evidence of a scoundrel, instead of the pure truth of his own daughter. She had degraded the fair name of Queed! He was a descendant of a man who signed the death warrant of his own son for sleeping on guard duty. He could also sacrifice his own daughter on the altar of his false family pride. Mary Thurman, whose dramatic talent has not been hampered by her beauty, is Martha, and Niles Welch 13 the romantic lead. Interesting character types are in the capable hands of Frank Campeau, George Hackathorne, Eugenie Besserer, Gertrude Claire and Frankie Lee. A little county seat in the mountains as the locale

Reader Takes Newer Form of Iron Feels Years Younger "Six weeks ago I saw a special offer in the paper telling how thousands of people grow old in looks and energy long before they are really old in

years, because, as examinations by

physicians have shown, an enormous number of people do not have enough iron in their blood. I have been, tak

ing Nuxated Iron for two weeks; the

results are simply astounding. The roses have come back in my lips and cheeks, and I can conscientiously say that I feel ten years younger." The above is a typical hypothetical case showing the results that have been achieved by a great many people since we started this "satisfaction or money back" offer on Nuxated Iron, We will make you the same guarantee. If, after taking the two weeks' treatment of Nuxated Iron, you do not feel and look years younger, we will promptly refund your money.'
