"The aggregation on the other
side OF the Rio Grande are on a
fair way to prosperity. IT'S true,
they ran against a snag in charg-
ing so cents admission on this side
of the border, and had to leave
their stereopticon outfit in the
hands of friends because it was
too heavy to pack from town to
town and too bulky to carry along
with them on the trucks Of the
freight cars, still the monograph
is reaping for them quite a har-
vest. When the aggrega-
ton succeeds in renting a
hall at the photograph Pro-
fessor has everything inside in
working order, the open air street
parade begins. First comes the
Cartoon Artist, handing right and
left bills announcing the wonder
full and marvellous attraction, and
calling out in German, English and
Spanish, the substance of the bills
for the benefit of those who cannot
read. Then follows the Phono-
graph Professor with parts and fix
lures Of the mysterious machine,
announcing in his loudest voice,
the wonders OF the show. The
assistant, with string of
scantily clad urchins, and
disorderly collection of dogs and
goats and chickens, brings up the
rear. Arriving at the show hall the
professor and his assistant enter,
followed by as many grown people
and urchins as have tie necessary
six cents, and as many dogs, billy
goats and chickens as can slip be-
tween the legs Of the Cartoon Ar
tist, who holds down the door. Al
ter the first rush is over, the aft
able Cartoon. Artist picks up
the aggregation's community
walking cane and rattles it
vigorously against the resonant
door to attract attention, at the
same time calling to the mob on
the outside in German, French,
English and Spanish, walk in
gents! The grandest show that
ever crossed the Rio Grande. Don't
miss hearing the photograph play

composed and whistled by the cal

as: Der Tramps Carol to Der Vat

TIE JAPs CAN'T NATURALIZE

Another attempt has been made
to extend our naturalization laws
by admitting the japanese, but the
House committee reported against
it. It's about time MeXicans were
either admitted or excluded. If
the Japs, who are the equals Of
the Mexicans, can be excluded
because of race distinction, most
certainly the Mexicans who have
come into our country since the
treaty of Gaudaloupe Hidalgo are
ineligible in all cases where they
cannot prove to be either eau
casian or negro.

Edible Thistles.

Almost all varieties CT the
thistle are edible; the best to use
for culinary purposes are the
"marsh thistle" Carduus palus-
tris) and the milk thistle (Carduus
mariaums) by many called the
white" or ladies thistle" This
indigenous plant is we'll known
and used by the rabbit fanciers; it
generally grows in hedges. The
stems OF the marsh thistle, gath
cred before the flowers are thoro-
ughly formed, then stripped Of
their outer rind, should be tied in
bundles, boiled and eaten with
white sauce in the same way as
asparagus. The milk thistle, II
gathered young, makes a good
salad. When the young stalks are
peeled and well soaked in salt and
water, all the bitterness is removed
and they are excellent boiled.
