Up the beautiful Panuco river in
steamboat, 60 miles the way the crow
flies, from Tampico, is located the La
Bolsa Colony and town site, consisting
of over 10000 acres of the richest land
In Mexico and equals that of the Nile
is sub-divided into 5, 10, 20, so and
100 acre tracts. All the land is level,
free from rock, with soil from a to so
feet deep, with a climate second to
none and where the healthful gull
breezes fan you in a perpetual sum
mer.
What the Land Will Produce.
This land is especially adopted for
the growth of all kinds of citrus fruits,
two crops of corn each year. that sells
Tor rs cents, gold, per bushel; sugar
cane that requires only one planting
in twelve years; cotton, tobacco, fiber,
potatoes, beans. tomatoes and all 9th
er vegetables known to the American
farmer. You can plant every day in
the year and get results.
Transportation.
We operate our own steamer from
rampico to La Bolsa, giving cheap
transportation for all produce, and
from Tampico, ocean liners are run
regularly to New York, New Orleans,
Galveston, England, Cuba and all
ports of the world Being twenty-four
hours nearer the United States than
any other tropical port, Tampico is
destined to furnish the United States
and Canada with a large portion OF
their delicacies, for we produce them
so much earlier than Florida or Cali
fornia, and our orange groves bear in
lone-third less time.

Five acres of this land set to or
anges will give you an income not
less than $4,000 gold each year after

A Savings Bank Conducted
on Right Principles.

The Bristol Herald believes that the
Hyde Park Savings Bank is conducted
on right principles and gives its rea-
sons in the following language:
The Lamoille County Savings Bank and
Trust Company of Hyde Park is one of YER
monts banking institutions that is worthy Of
increased patronage from the citizens of the
state. Its money is loaned to residents of the
state to foster and increase Vermont's institu-
tons and industries. The fact that it has just
passed the million dollar mark in assets shows
that it is conducted on right principles. The
state needs more such banks.
Commencing January, 1908, this Bank
will pay four per cent compounded semi
annually on all deposits large and small
alike; will pay taxes on all sums up TO
$4,000, and will issue pass books with no
limits as to times of withdrawal or other
restrictions or limitations save those
common to all Vermont Saving Banks.
Deposits made on or before Feb. 10Th will
draw interest from Jan. LIST, those after
Feb. 18th from April LIST.

PROTE CTION
FROM FIRE
BOARD OF EDUCATION WILL
HAVE NUMEROUS CHANGES
MADE m SCHOOLS, WITH SEMI.
MONTHLY FIRE INSPECTION.

That the public school officials will
take warning from the recent school
fire in Collinwood. which cost the
lives OF nearly 200 children, was quite
apparent in Thursday nights meet
ing OF the board OF education. Supt.
Marundale submitted lengthy COM
munication recommending amend
ments to the rules relative TO fire
drills and precautions TO be observed
by teachers and janitors. such as
keeping doors and windows unfastened
turing school hours. The suggestion
was referred to the committee on
rules.
The superintendent also suggested
that the board request the co-opera-
ton OF the fire commission in an eff
fort to insure greater protection from
fires. His plan Is to have the fire.
men from engine houses nearest
school buildings visit the schools
twice a month To see that the exits
are properly safeguarded. He would
also have the firemen re-charge the
fire extinguishers at stated intervals
and instruct principals and teachers
In the use of them.
Another suggestion made by the SUI
perintendent was that supplemental
estimate be put In for the purpose CT
making numerous changes In school
buildings that would make for greater
safety. 1t Is his idea to have exits
placed on the stair landings between
the first and second floors Of several
school buildings, these exits leading
TO fireproof stairways to be construct
ed on the outside of the building. The
schools picked out by the superintend-
emit are the Alger, McGraw, Scripps,
Estabrook, Farrand, Fairbanks, Cary.
Mckinley, Garfield, Poe, Clay, Dickin-
son, Bellevue, Jackson, Preston and
Potter.
The suggestion was referred to the
real estate committee with power and
supplemental estimate win probably
be submitted for the purpose OF Sc
curing these changes.
Inspector Johnson wanted the Pitch
er school included, saying that the old
school reminded him Of the cata-
combs.
An appropriation for the purpose Of
installing and maintaining systems Of
electric gongs In all schools will also
be asked.
Inspector Goldberg came forward
with suggestion that portable stair
ways be placed at some of the lower
windows OF all three-story schools to
enable the pupils in primary grades
to go out without going into the hall
In case of fire.
AS a result of the Collinwood fire,
changes looking to greater precaution
are already being made IN the city
schools.
Doors that have been inclined to
stick" have been shaved on; signal
systems have been improved and fire
drills are being held with greater reg
ularity.

COLLEGE GRADUATE
Found Clear Thinking Assured by

A college student should know that

Il have now been using Grape-Nuts
steadily four years and having passed
the experimental and over-enthusiastic
stage, | feel sure of myself and have

This I have derived largely from that
excellent little booklet, The Road to
Wellville.' which have largely adopt
ed as my faithful guide in matters per-
tanning to eating, exercise and health
In general.
ION first reading the booklet was
struck with its plain. common sense
and moreover found that II was in
harmony with physiology and psychol-
cgy so far as had learned them In
my study OF these subjects at college.
For at least ten years before I be-
gan TO eat Grape-Nuts. had been ac-
customed to eating freely OF fried
meats. white bread. biscuits and what
rot. with resultant headaches, some
dizziness and an appetite that waJ
capricious and uncertain. All this
too. seemed TO affect my brain and
nervous system, for.N while engaged
in study found It hard to concen.
trate my thoughts. M
Il could think very well for little
while, but soon grew restless and In
attentive. Nor can emphasize too
much the change that I have brought
about by adopting rational habits in
food and exercise.
There Is now an elasticity In my
