PARROT CRIES FOR
MADERA; ARRESTED
Sentenced to Have Tongue
Cut Out, so the Juarez
Story Runs.
"Viva Madera."
The Juarez policeman stopped with
a jerk. He knocked on the door of the
house from whence the voice came.
"Who calls?" asked the policeman.
"Madera," came the answer, and then,
"Viva Madera." "
The woman denied that she had
taught the parrot to cry "'Viva Madera"
such a dangerous thing to remark
but the woman who lived in the house
and her talking bird were brought to
the commandery of police, and ap
peared in the civil court, so at least
many declare who ought to know.
As result of the arraignment of bird
and. woman, the parrot was sentenced
to an awful fate so they say. It has
been decreed that the bird's tongue be
cut out, yet that the bird need not die.
The woman was freed, on her word that
she ,dld not teach the parrot to cry,
"Viva Madera." '
Such is the story they are telling
over in Ciudad Juarez where they say
it happened only yesterday.
GIRLS IN DIAZS SECRET
SERVICE, SAYYS BOSTON POST
Like the famous women of the north
and the south who during'the Civil war
performed heroic services in behalf of
their respective causes, is Miss Mary
Garcia, now stopping at Winthrop, Me.,
according to her own story a member
of the Mexican secret service under
president Diaz, and now banished be
cause of her activity in behalf of her
brother.
It was she who, as the right-arm of
the indomitable Diaz, for weeks follow
ed Francisco I. Madero, head of the
anti-reelectionists opposing Diaz, and
she again who obtained information af
ter months of tireless tracking which
led to the European exile of Gen. Ber
nardo Reyes, the military and popular
hero of Mexico.
"Life is too hazardotjs for me in Mex
ico," she said. "I am going to a plan
tation owned bj my brother near Santi
ago, Cuba."
Miss Garcia is of slim figure, slightly
above medium height, with the embodi
ment of athletic grace in her carriage.
Her eyes are black, sparkling and ap
parently frank, though she has proved
in her peculiarly dangerous profession
that they can 1 e otherwise if her
strong woman's mind so wills. Her
cheeks have the peculiar reddish tinge.

Welcome Words to Women
Women who suffer with disorders peculiar to their
sex should write to Dr. Pierce and receive free the
fcdvice of a physician of over 40 years' experience
a skilled and successful specialist in the diseases
of women. Every letter of this sort has the most
careful consideration and is regarded as sacredly
confidential. Many sensitively modest women write
fully to Dr. Pierce what they would shrink from
telling to their local physician. The local physician
s pretty sure to say that he cannot do anything
without "an examination." Dr. Pierce holds that
these distasteful examinations are generallv need
less, and that no woman, except in rare cases, should submit to them.
Dr. Pierce's treatment will cure you right in the privacy of
your own home. His "Favorite Prescription" has cured
hundreds of thousands, soma of them .the worst of cases.
It is the only medicine of its kind that is the product of a regularly graduated
physician. The only one good enough that its makers dare to print its every
ingredient o its outside wrapper. There's no secrecy. It will bear examina
tion. No alcohol and no habit-forming drugs are found in it. Some unscrup
ulous medicine dealers may offer you a substitute. Don't take it. Don't trifle
with your health. Write to World's Dispensary Medical Association, Dr. R.
V. Pierce, President, Buffalo, N. Y., take the advice received and be well.
