A poor hat is about as unsatisfactory an investment as man can make. Not always does the price paid for this necessary article of wear assure good quality. Perhaps in no other bit of adOrnment for men is it more neceS- sary to have the endorsement of a re- liable name than in hat. There may be style and good appearance when newly bought, but wear soon shows the stuff of which hat is made. Meigs & Co. $ hat department has an enviable reputation for the high quail ity of the hats sold at moderate prices. This firm makes it a rule to have only the very best hat the best makers of hats can produce to retail at each price, and back their faith in their judgement of hats by putting their la bel in every hat as guarantee of qual- ity. This endorsement means some thing to the buyer and wearer of hats, because it assures him satisfaction. The leading blocks in both soft and stiff hats are always to be found at MeigS & Go. $ hat department and in sufficient variety to provide becom- ing head covering for every man. Spe- cial attention is also paid to head-wear for boys, caps, tams and fancy hats for children are shown in variety seldom found except in the stores of great cities. Just now Meigs & Co.,, of Bridgeport, are quoting end-of-season prices on fancy suits and overcoats for men and boys and children's suits and OVercOatS.

 There Is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy fufills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver. bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing 1t, or bad effects following use of liquor wine or beer. and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night.

Stephen John Paul Kruger, Presi-

affectionately known by his fellow
citizens as Dom Paul, is dead. He
was born in Rastenburg, Cape Col
ony, October 10, 1925. In his early
days he was a great fighter of lions
and Zulus, and in 1872 he was made

command of the forces which gave
the British their memorable defeat
on February 81, 1881, at Maiuba

Republic fell in it's war with Eng

Editors Progressive Farmer:

While the crops are growing and
the outlook is fine for a big crop anc
fine prices, it is an easy matter tt
spend such a crop on the imaginary
yield. This is a bad plan and has
brought trouble upon thousands Oh
farmers. Thousands of farmers have
lost their homes by spending on the
basis of an imaginary crop.
Then there are others who plant
cotton and tobacco, hoping that this
time thee rop will be large and the
prices high and then they can buy
corn, meat and other necessary
things which they are bound to have
for the coming year. This is all
wrong. The big GRO and high
prices rarely ever come. These
phantoms should never be followed
by any farmer. Many have run after
these imaginary dollars until they
have lost all and brought their fami.
lies to want. Ny friends, you can't
do this sort of farming, and if you
could, it is by far the most ruinous
way to do. If you will think about
it, you cannot afford to make a to-
bacco crop or cotton crop to sell at
any price, and then buy corn, meat,
potatoes and peas.
There is one true and sure way
to be independent on the farm, and
that is to make an abundance of
corn, meat, potatoes and peas.
With these four things in abund-
ance and a good garden, you will be
OF a sure foundation. You can
make cor at thirty cents a bushel.
One of my neighbors planted a field
in corn and peas, and the peas paid
every expense and the corn was, a
clear profit. The pea crop properly
put in and managed will pay all the
expenses of making the corn crop.
Now if you can turn your labor into
a crop at a cost to you of only thirty
cents a bushel, don't you think it bet
ter than paying eighty cents cash
for it? Now you remember that this
eighty cents came to you from sell
ing a crop which cost you very nearly
the price for which you sold it. You
e that your efforts in producing
corn is worth four to five times more
to you than if this same labor was
put into a cotton or tobacco crop.
My farmer friends, when you learn
to turn your labor into the crops
which you are bound to have for the
support of your family and stock
during the coming year, and not have
to spend one dollar lin cash or on
time) of your money crop for them,
you will begin to prosper as you never
have. Make this your rule to go by
for the next five years and see how it
works.
The crops at this time are fine In
this section, but if you begin to
spend them, on their good looks, on
time, they will not amount to much
TO YOU. Your labor will have been
given to benefit some one else and

Trail OF THE SERPENT.


The Roosevelt administration, to
explain It's waste and extravaganza
il the public expenditures, Is driv-
en- to make comparisons with the
expenditures Of foreign nations
that keep up at the expense Of the
people the full equipage of empire.
The American people are not ready
10 be classed with the monarchies
Of the old world III matters Of gov
ernmentaI economy or civil liberty.
Their large armies and navies are
supported that foreign possessions
may be held in subjugation and
colonial wars carried on at the ex-
pense Of the common people, who
must furnish the soldiers and pay
the taxes, while the people so held
and governed are deprived of liber-
ty and independence. It IS this
system we are now apeing III the
Philippine Islands. Il IS IL sup
port of this system that hundreds
of millions Of the peoples money
are being spent to maintain a mil
itary establishment that Will equal
or outstrip the strongest mOnar-
chial power of Europe. And IS
there any wonder that when this
administration IS called to account
for its extravaganza its advocates
point to imperial Europe as all eX-
ample for the people of this repub-
lie to follow.
This is another track that the
snake of imperialism is making in
this campaingg. For nearly one
hundred and thirty years the peo-
pie of this republic have looked
with horror upon the vicious mil
itary establishments of Europe and
the expenses they entailed. But
at no time did any administration
of national affairs in this country
attempt to justify extravaganza
and waste by pointing to the eX-
penditures of imperial Europe until
Theodore Roosevelt was driven to
do it as a last resort to relieve the
odium of his administration. But
of all the odius comparisons ever
instituted this one IS the most
odious.

ODE TO CARRIE.

Carrie came to San Antoine
To see the Alamo;
But bartender turned the siphon on,
And Carrie had to go.
Then Carrie went to Austin,
Little hatchets for to sell;
She told the boys to quit the jobs,
That send their souls to hell.
Carrie IS a daisy,
And stubborn as mule;
But after all, you're bound to say
That Carrie Is no fool.
Whisky, cigar and cigarette,
Are things she does despise;
She hammers one and knocks t'others
And smiles at your surprise.
Should Carrie then to Brownsville come
To free US from our vokes;
She'd have a job for all her life,
For everybody smokes.-and a few drink
sometimes.

MAKING IT ToPHEAvIER

The recommendation of the board Of
school inspectors with reference to
the construction of new school build
ings for st. Paul proceeds along the
old familiar line. Of total of 1918, 500
asked for new school buildings, $780,
900 is to be devoted to new high
schools. For that portion of the edu-
cational system which touches the
smallest number of pupils, and is
therefore of least practical value,
there is to be given nearly twice as
much as is assigned to the grade
schools, in which the great number of
pupils receive the only education that
they get. Thus we are setting the ed
ucational pyramid little more firmly
on it's apex than before.
Probably this solution of the oues-
ton could have been foreseen for some
time. In the absence of interest by
the public, we have to assume that
they are satisfied with it. In principle
II Is utterly and absolutely wrong.
Until the grade schools are equal to
all the demands upon them: until
every child seeking educatio in the
grades can be accommodated: until
there is no need of further buildings
or teachers or appliances for the many,
the establishment of new high school
centers, each of which will in time de-
mand a full corps of instructors and
all the expenses and appliances of the
Central high, cannot be defended
1t is making the public school sys-
tenn topheavy and still more out of
proportion. 1t is expanding the orna-
mental at the expense of the useful. If
that is what the people want, then
that is what the people should have.
