Once there was a long-headed Father who had taken the Junior into the Down.. Town Of1ce and was trying to eradicate the Greek and Latin from his System.
 The Junior was a Lovely Chap whose Clothes came to about twice his Salary. He resembled the smooth-faced Hero of a Richard Harding Davis $1.50 Book. By keeping his Hair neatly gummed- down and wearing the right shape of Collar. likewise vamping a few tender Chords on the Piano and holding up his end in a light weight Conversation, he had man. aked to elbow his Way into the Front Row of that Select Division of the Hu- man Race known as the Landed Gentry, because they gea landed so often
 Bertrand Flappingdale was the Name of this particular Confection. In Our Set he was known as Bertie and among the Employees at the Shop he was known as Bluff. Bert's Pathway in Life was 60 nicely fabricated and every one was 50 awfully Nice to him that after a while he felt reasonably Certain that the Earth and the Fitness thereof had been dished up especially for his Benefit and he could cancel the Order any time that he saw fit
 F1appingdale Senior. had never smok- cd Egyptian Cigarettes and attended Junior Proms during his Incubator Period He had been too busy trying to make the Meal Tickets last from one Saturday Night to another. The only Time he got real Lungy was when he told how he used to work for Six a Week and plant $lO0 year in the Building and Loan Association. It had been many Years since they took his Boiled Din ners away from him and made him eat Artichokes but he was still a Farmer at Heart And when they threw hin into the long tailed Regalia with th' misflt Tie, he had Tap stencilled all oveI himself.

Very Remarkable Cure of piarrhoea

About six years ago for the first time in my life I had a sudden and severe at tack of diarrhoea," says Mrs. Alice Mil Ter, of Morgan, Texas. T got temporary relief, but 1t came back again and again, and for six long years I have suffered more misery and agony than I can tell. It was worse than death. My husband spent hundreds of dollars for physi- clans prescriptions and treatment with out avail. Finally We moved to Bosque County. our present home. and one day happened to see an advertisement of Chamberlain's Collie. Cholera and Dtar- rhoea Remedy with testimonial of d nan who had been cured by it. The case was so similar to my own that 1 con- cluded to try the remedy. The result was wonderful.

RAN OVER A BULL.
Wreck Between CuyIer and Ditch
tOn-Dispensary Election.

NOu-AJleDc IlCCtAohs
Statesboro, Ga, July 22.-The Savan-
nah and Statesboro Railway had a
wreck between Cuyler and Blitchton
hast night. The mixed train leaves
here at o'clock, returns to Blitchton
arom Cuyler at night so that the crew
may get lodging accommodations. The
run is usually made backwards. Last
might the coach ran upon "a large bull
land was derailed and partly wrecked.
Three persons were injured, the flag
man having his leg broken just above
khe ankle. Dr. Sample was sent to the
scene of the accident on a special train
and dressed the wounds of the injured
men. The track was open again this
mOrning.
The city and county are stirred up
n1ow over the passage of the dispensary
lbill in the House of Representatives
providing for an election to be held in
the county, to determine whether or
not dispensary shall be established In
Statesboro. 1t has gone to the Senate
and will doubtless pass without oppo-
Sition. If the Governor does not then
veto the measure the fight will come
up in the county. The bill provides
that when the Ordinary shall be pre-
scented with a petition signed by 20 per
cent. OF the NOIeFS>Wno quallHed IN the
last general election, he shall call the
election for not earlier than twenty
days, nor later than sixty thereafter.
Every qualified voter. whether for or
against the dispensaTy, will sign the
petition at once. until the required
number is secured, and then the issue
will be fought out at the polls. There
is not any doubt about the dispensary
being defeated but il seems that the

MEXICAN BOIL WEEVIL.
DR.. Howard Does Not Believe II Has
Crossed the Mississsipppi.


Washington. July 22-Dr. L. O.
Howard, chief of the Bureau of Ento-
mology in the Department of Agri-
culture. still refuses to believe that the
Mexican boil weevil has passed the
borders of Texas and is to be found
east of the Mississippi river. When
his attention was called to an account
that has Seen widely published IN
the Southern states of the exhibition
of samples of the boil weevil from
plantation fifteen miles south of Mont
gomery, Ala. he said that he was con-
fident that there had been some mis-
take about the matter. This exhibition
was made at a meeting of the Gin
ners' Association of Alabama at Mont
gomery, Ala, on July 49, and those
who saw the insects do not seem to
have entertained any doubt as to their
being genuine Mexican cotton boil
weevils DIR. Howard has received
numerous samples of weevils from Ala
bama and other cotton states east of
the Mississippi which the senders have
believed to be the Mexican boil wee
vii. In every case thus far an ex-
animation of the insects has shown
them TO be samples of weevils of other
varieties which are well-known to the
CAtO4AOlOSA 1915 anu WHICH are not nafln-
ful to cotton
The season has not yet advanced far
enough for DR.. Howard to venture any
predictions as to the extent of the
damage that will probably be done by
the weevil in the infected districts in
Texas this year. He is receiving re-
ports from time to time from his
agents who are conducting expert
ments on Texas plantations The most
interesting report thus far received is
one bearing out the theories of the
department as to the greater vitality
OF cotton grown from Northern seed.
One OF the experimental tracts near
Victoria, Tex, was completely over
flowed after the cotton plants were well
grown and the plants were covered
with silk. After the flood subsidized
these plants continued to grow while
all the cotton outside of the expert
mental tract that had been overfowed
was killed
