There was large crowd at the
dance last Saturday night and they
all had a jolly time. Everybody
seems to be well pleased with the
fine hall we have in Capulin. The
attendance was about $50 people.
Our well known friend, Mr.. Lu-
ciano Trujillo, died last Tuesday
morning at 9 O'Clock. He leaves a
wife and about nine children. Mr..
Trujillo had been suffering with
rheumatism for about year. He
was 10 years old. He got along
nicely with everybody during his
lifeand had many friends who regret
very much to learn of his death.
Funeral services were held by
! Father Penella, of Conejos.
At the big dance last Saturday
night. given by the S. P. d. j.

them were, Chas. d. Weist and his
two brothers Harry and Ed, Jason

from being drowned while crossing
La Jara creek on their way to
Conejos. The horses became en-
tangled i'll wire from fence
along the river and fell in the mid
die of the stream. The water was
higher that day than it had ever
been, but Mr.. Martinez succeeded
in getting them all out of the water
safely.

BOW CtYLON AND
HONOLULU Do II

Manila Times: Apropos of an article
published in these columns a few days
ago about the ACCESSIBILITY of appoint
ing a commission to visit other coun-
tries. more especially those in the
Orient, with view to seeing and
studying economic conditions and meth
DDS in vogue there so that we might
profit by their experience. there may
be mentioned one practice which pre-
walls in Ceylon and, we are informed,
also in Honolulu.
This consists of the levying of a
small tax on the principal export of
the country, the revenue from which is
devoted to world advertising.
In the case of Ceylon the article
which contributes to this purpose is
tea, and in Honolulu, sugar.
on each chest of tea which leaves
Ceylon there is assessed a small fee.
The money derived in this way is used
to send out men specially fitted for the
work TO France, Germany, Great Brit
ain and other countries to present the
claims of Ceylon tea. In one large
Continental exhibition recently millions
of small sample packages of Ceylon tea
with attractive reading matter setting
forth the superior excellence of Ceylon
tea and the general advantages of the
country, We're intelligently distributed.
In Honolulu the money derived from
the sugar levy is appropriated to the
work of the Promotion Committee,
which keeps strict accounting of every
cent disbursed, thus giving the mer-
chants full opportunity to see that their
contributors are put to proper use.
Here in the Philippines it would seem
advisable to adopt some such method
In advertising the9e islands. Our hemp
export naturally suggests itself as our
revenue substitute for Ceylon tea and
Honolulu sugar.
This is only one of the features which
contribute to the success of other east
ern countries which we believe such a
commission as we have suggested
might study with great benefit and pro-
fit TO the Philippines. If we ever hope
to achieve prosperity we must be-
think and bestlr ourselves. We are not
going to wake up some fine morning
and find ourselves prosperous. Pros
perity doesn't come that way.

INFANT MORTALITY.

The attention of the Town Council at
Johannesburg, Transvaal. was last year
directed to the fact that out OF eighty
four infants, who died in December.
forty-four of them had died of dysen-
terry. An investigation with view of
tracing the source of the disease was
authorized. Under the best OF condi-
tions attacks OF dysentery are very
prevalent among children in warm
weather, but in large majority of
cases the lives of the little ones can
be saved by the use of Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
This remedy always brings prompt re-
lief, and has never been known to fail.
