No Man ts Stronger
Than His Stomach
A strong mas is strong all over. No man can be
Strang who is suffering from weak stomach with its
consequent indigestion, or from some other disease
of the stomach and its associated organs, which im
pairs digestion and nutrition. For when the stomach
is weak or diseased there is a loss of the nutrition
contained in food, which is the source of all physical
strength. "When a man " doesn't feel just right,"
when he doesn't sleep well, has an uncomfortable
leeling in the stomach after eating, is languid, nervous, irritable and despond
tat, he is losing the nutrition needed to make strength.
Such m man should use Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. It cares diseases of the stomach and other
organs of digestion and nutrition. It enriches the blood, .
invigorates the liver, strengthens the kidneys, nourishes
the nerves, and so GIVES HE3.LTH 3ND STRENGTH TO
THE WHOLE BODY.
You can't afford to accept a secret nostrum as e substitute for this mom' ,
alcoholic medicise op known composition, not even though the urgent dealer
ssy thereby make a little bigger profit. Ingredients printed on wrapper.

CLOSE OUT KENO
The Mayor Thinks There Is
Good Order; Mexico iAl-
lows Lotteries.
Juarez officials seem unmoved by tho
anti-keno campaign.
Francisco Portdllo, acting "efe politico,
denies the insinuation that he is con
sidering means to close the keuo houses
of the Mexican city,' as made in the
current number of El Trabajo, a Juarez
weekly. "I think there is very good or
der there," he says. It is pointed out by
comandante Ponce de Leon that since
public lotteries are sanctioned by the
federal government the closing of or
,derly gaming houses -would be Incoo
sistant. Still the movement against keno gam
bling is not alone confined to the press
of the Mexican city. "All the talk in
the -world cannot down the- great fact
that gambling is immoral In its result,"
said a prominent Juarez professional
man yesterday. "The federal govern
ment is considering the means of event
ually closing all lotteries,, and even the
long established fiesta gambling season.
That -work needs to be done slowly and
will take years. But tgive new per
mits for new and strange games unfre
quented by Mexicans is only to bring
income for the state government, of no
benefit to the municipality, and, by 'is
degrading force, a great danger."

Engineer's Report.
F. H. Todd, city engineer, has submit
ted an interesting report, handsomely
supplemented by city maps, illustrating
the -work of the department and show
ing the condition and growth of the
city with reference to paving, side
walks, sewers, street lights, fire pJugs,
fire alarms, water mains, property val
uations, tax rates from 1880 to date.
This is one of the most comprehensive
and exhaustive reports it has ever been
my pleasure to see, and I desire that
you gentlemen make a personal in
spection of this report.
Mr. Todd reports the expenditure of
$19,765.15 in salaries in his department
since Feb. 1, 1909. The city contains
9.13 square miles with 153 miles of
streets 70 feet in width; of this 30.7
miles are graded, 47.2 miles are pas
sable; add to this the paved area and
It makes a total of 94.7 miles of streets
in use.
From 1907 to 1909 the department has
collected and paid into the treasury
$1619.75 Tor surveys, blue prints, etc.
From February, 1908 , to February,
1910, the department has built and cov
vered 129 monuments.
Durlntr ho VMr th rtcn.irtmpnt Tin?
given grade staked for and superin
tended tne construction of street pav
ing, costing $293,637.74, approximating
16S.S13.88 square yards, of which
amount the city paid $77,453.29 for street
and alley intersections.
Paving Laid.
Under the direction of the department
there was built from Feb. 1, 1909, to
Feb. 1, 1910, a total of 254,679.44 square
yards of paving of all kinds, which Is
equivalent to 8.7 miles of roadway 50
feet wide.
The total paving of the city amounts
to 478,S04.7S square yards, or 18.03
miles of roadway 50 feet wide.
Previous to your administration, the
engineer reports that the total, mileage
of paving in the city was 3.23 miles;
therefore you have constructed 14.SQ
miles under your administration.
The department has during the past
three years given grade for sidewalk
and curb for 35.4 miles, of which 8.7S
miles were given during the past year.
Fourteen miles of grade has been given
during the year for street grading n.nd
paving.

well lighted streets, 12.4 miles of par
tially lighted streets, 11.5 miles of near
ly dark streets, and 5S.1 miles of abso
lutely dark streets. The department re
ports the sanitary sewers of all sizes
to total 54.67 miles.
The report shows eight manholes haV
ing been built, 12 double manholes cut
down to grade and three flush tanks
constructed. - A
The city engineer reports 21.3 miles
of street railway track within the city
limlts.
Recommendations.
The office of assistant city engineer
should be created with a salary of $175
per mohth, and this official should be
directed -to assume some of the burden
now borne by the city engineer. This
would render the department more ef
fective and afford the city engineer
better opportunity to devote more time
to his administrative duties.
The department should also be equip
ped with vehicles for transporting
crews promptly to different portions
of town, and facilitate inspection,
thereby avoiding the loss of much val
uable time.
Revolving Paving Fund.
It Is interesting to note that you in
augurated the system known as the
revolving paving fund, and that your
experience In handling same has amply
justified your expectations. The fol
lowing is a financial statement show

Remarks and Recommendation-.
This department ha? made angx
ceptionally good showing, demonstrat
ing the ability of Mr. Hadlock as an
organizer and economist. He has laid
and manufactured all sewers required
during the year, and has built a pump
ing station and equipped same and still
remained within his budget allowance.
TtppansA of offin'pnov and abilitv of
Mr. Hadlock I would recommend an 1
increase of at least $25 per month in
his salarj. The city has a good sewer
commissioner, and it would be economy
to pay him a reasonable salary atul
thereby insure the retention of his ser
vices. A cheap man is never of any
-value.
This department should be equipped I
with a team tor .drayage purpose. .

Janitor, City Hall.
Amos Williams, janitor of the city
hall, reports ihat all expenses of the
city hall, embracing repairs, mainte
nance, etc, during the year, amounted
to $2697.79, including janitor's salary.
He recommends that the entire building
should be painted, inside and outside;
that the building should be rewired,
and that the basement boiler used for
heating, necessitates overhauling and
repairing previous to further use. I
endorse all these recommendations.
Williams is a most careful and effi
cient janitor and by reason of the fact
that his duties have very materially
increased during the past 12 months- I
recommend a bsustantlal increase in his
salary.
