Mr.. Lloyd denied this. however. and
stated that little Weston was fed by nat
ural methods
DR.. o. F. Baerens was seen and pro-
nounced young Lloyd the largest baby
for it's age he had ever heard CT. Dr..
Baerens said he could not tell what was
the cause OF the baby's exceedingly ro-
bust condition without making diagao-
sis. but remarked that it was evidently
hereditary case
The baby's system evidently has
tendency to turn everything it ccE-
sumes into fat.
But it makes no difference what doc
tors think about him, young Lloyd just

bet On IT,
Weston Lloyd weighs just thirty
pounds and is apparently as healthy and
happy as any youngster of his own age
at normal weight.
When Weston was born four and
half months ago he weighed liz pounds
and since then he has actually grown
out of his boots.
Comparatively speaking. young Wes-
ton has had sort of mushroom career.
He grows so fast that his mamma is
kept busy continually making new
clothes for him, but she says she does
not mind that. She wouldn't care if she
had to make new dress every day, and
SO Weston can grow Just as big as he
likes.
Weston hasn't word to say for him
self as yet. He simply follows the old
adage. laugh and grow fat" The new
adage. Grow fat and be laughed at"
doesn't worry him In the least.
Mr.. Lloyd has had his sons pictures
taken lately and the photos show that
he is indeed a phenomenal baby.

Young Lloyd, weighing eleven and one
half pounds at birth, If developed nor
uaIIv. ought therefore weigh at present
about seventeen pounds, which would be
considered by doctors an exceedingly
good weight for age.
None of the doctors seen would volun-
teer an explanation OF the cause OF the
baby's feshiness. One who refused to be
uroted stated that it was evidently
sign OF giantism and that Mr.. Lloyds
ancestors must have sprung from a race
of large people.
Mr. Lloyd. however. never heard that
auy of his ancestors were out of the or
dinary ms to size. Mr.. Lloyd himself
weighs but $50 pounds. and measures
about teet irphes in his stocking feet
Mrs. Lloyd. the mother OF this remark

THIS DOG WATCHES

Nightly. at about 1880 o'clock the in
dicator on the gauge that marks of the
supply of electricity for dwellings be-
gins TO move over toward the mark at
which a switch must be thrown.
Mr.. Frales had been throwing this
switch for ten years. and always at the
same hour. II O'Clock.
The switch. when thrown, sends out
the fluid by a smaller dynamo than that
which generated the current up to II

TO the smaller one for night.
Mr.. Frales has had Tyro about three
years. and the dog is his constant COM
panion.
The electrician is at the electric plant
Tyro soon noticed that his master al
ways climbed up on the running board
before the gauges at certain hour and
manipulated something on the wall.
Tyro socn after noticed the hand OF
the Indicator move in circle about the
gauge. and his canine senses must have
grasped the idea that his master must
climb IN when the indicator reached
that certain mark.
So one night, when Mr.. Fraies was in
another part of the building. Tyro OBJ
served that the indicator was very close
to the mark at which the switch must
be thrown and the electrician was not
there to climb up the running beard.
Tyro barked and barked loudly. The
electrician came hurrying in to see what
was the matter and saw Tyro barking
at the gauge.
Mr.. Frales then moved the switch and
Tyro wagged his tail.

placed before the electric board and in
it Tyro sits and keeps his bright eyes

T. LOUIS claims the distinction of
possessing one of the largest
~ babies in the United States. At
any rate this infant prodigy is
the largest child for its age in St.
Louis. and, as he has been described in
newspapers from one end of the coun-
try to the other and no one has come
forward to dispute the claim, it is gem
orally taken for granted that little
Weston Robert Lloyd. the son of Mr.
and Mrs. hiram Lloyd. of 3111 Laclede
Avenue, of that city. holds the cham
pionship.
At least his parents and relatives
think SO, and they have been backed in
their opinion by some of the most noted
physicians in St. Louis, who pronounce
him a "whopper."

thirty pounds at four and one e-half

Dr. Louis Starr, Of Philadelphia, a
notable authority on babies, in one Of his
worke. states that the average baby at
birth weighs seven pounds, and that its
weight for the first year increases at thA
rate of from one-quarter TO three-quar-
ters CT an ounce daily. Therefore a

Santa Fe the Oldest City

There is no doubt that st. Angus
tine is the oldest settlement of white
men in this country, but Santa Fe is
called the oldest city because It was
a city before the coming of the white
men. When the Spaniards first made
their way to the heart of this coun-
try. about 1912. the site Of the present
city OF Santa Fe was occupied by
prosperous and populous pueblo
(town) of the indians. The expedition
OF Alvar Nunez penetrated New Mex.

They literally cnslayed the natives,

Santa Fe the capital of their new do

GOOD ASPHALT IN MEXICO
American Company Formed to Work
the Deposits There.

Attention has lately been turned.
says Modern Mexico, toward the de-
posits of asphalt in Mexico. That
these exist in various parts of the re-
public has been known for some time.
but no effort has been made until late
ly to place this material on the mar
ket. Now several companies are at
work quietly exploiting beds of as
phalt in different parts of the south
and southeast of Mexico. Among 9th
ers who are investing money in this
enterprise is ex-Gov. Hogg of Texas,
who has secured a concession along
the line OF the Monterey and Gulf road
in the state of Tamaulipas. A strong
force of skilled workmen from the
United States is at work. and machin-
cry is on the way to further develop
the asphalt deposits. 1t is the inten-
tion of ex-Gov. Hogg to export most OF
the asphalt from his mines to the
United States. He claims that the as
phalt deposits of Tamaulipas are OF
vast extent and excellent quality.
