Lower Rio Grande Texans Drink Much
Goats Milk Because II is
Healthier.

Cuevitas, TeX.-Drink plenty of
goats milk and you will enjoy good
health and long life. This is the
chief rule of health known to the Mex
lean sages of the lower Rio Grande
border of Texas and among the ma
tives of many other localities on the
other side of the international border
stream
Goat dairies are scattered all
through this region, Notwithstand-
ing the fact that the land extending
back from the river is devoted largely
to cattle grazing, mich cows are al
most unknown among the Mexicans.
They obtain their milk supply almost
exclusively from goats. In doing this
they are not guided altogether by the
alleged healthfulness of the milk of
the latter animal.
There is not much work or ex-
pense involved in raising and look
ing after herd of goats. A few
well trained dogs will do the work
of as many men. In many instances
the dogs perform all the work OF
herding the goats, taking their
charges out to the grazing grounds
in the morning, remaining with
them faithfully all. day, and driving
them into their corral when evening
comes on

GIVES HOME TO GIRLS

There are thousands of girls en-
ployed in Attleboro shops. OF course,
many of them live here and are the
daughters of our citiz is, but there is
large number who come from the
provinces and from Maine, where
there is but little employment for
girls, and who are without home
until they have enough money to
bring their families here. Attleboro
is as kind as any place in the world
to working girls. but in spite of that
there are many girls who have only
bare room in which to live"

JeWeIer Turns Over House to
Homeless Employees.
Massachusetts, Manufacturer Moved
to Action by Pleadings of Woman
Who Is Devoting Life to Cause
of Women Workers.

Boston, Mass.-Moved by the earn
est pleadings of woman who is de-
voting her life to the cause of work
ing girls, Back Bay jewelry manu-
facturer has decided to give up his
luXuriously furnished residence for
use of those girls who have no home
of their own.
If his experiment proves successful,
fellow manufacturers will either adopt
the same plan or will contribute gen
erously to a fund for the erection OF
a home for the accommodation of all
working girls in the community who
live long distance from their work
and cannot go home daily.
E. A. Sweeney of Attleboro is the
man, and his residence at School
street will be occupied by IA working
girls early in the fall.
This home will be in charge of the
Methodist Episcopal church of Attic
boro, but it will be conducted along
undenominationa lines and every at
tempt will be made to secure all pos
sible comforts for girls employed in
Attleboro who have their homes else
where.
The opening of Mr.. Sweeney's resi-
dence as home for working girls
will represent the fruition of the plans
of Miss Margaret Eckley, deaconness
of the Methodist Episcopal church,
who for the last five years has en-
deavored in every way to help the
working girls of Attleboro. She has
gathered statistics which show that
many hundreds of girls employed in
the great jewelry shops of Attleboro
come from other parts of New Eng
land and from the provinces, and it
has been her constant effort to make
these girls as comfortable as possible
under the circumstances.
Miss Eckley has succeeded in rails
ing sufficient money to guarantee that
the home for working girls will be
conducted for at least one year. 1t is
planned to make the home self-sup-
porting and each of the girls will pay
for her care.
The undertaking is backed financial
ly by prominent Attleboro manufac.
turers, who are greatly interested in
the plan and who are willing to do
their full share in making it sue
cess The present home is merely an
experiment If it is successful others
will be established, and there is a
good possibility of a big home being
erected and conducted on Young
Women's Christian association prin-
ciples.
81 would like It understood at the
outset" said Miss Eckley, that our
home will be only for girls of good
moral character Our efforts are to
encourage them to lead Christian
lives, and for that purpose we want
to provide them with a home where
they will have every comfort and will
be subject only to uplifting influences.

The Nisky choir sang IN O hearty manner
II am going to enlist Besides several
hymns were sung by the choir and audience.
Archdeacon Petersen delivered an earnest
and practical address, He showed that the
Old Testament spoke plainly against
drunkenness. Under the Mosaic DISPENSE
ton the command was given that a drunk
ard was to be starved to death. And in
Proverbs we read, 'For the druukard and
the glutton shall come to poverty: and
drowsiues5 shall clothe q man with rags"
This is Just az true today as when it was
frst written. Th4 New Testament says
plainly, no druDkard shall inherit the king
dom Of God. Drunken parents cannot ex-
pect their children TO honour tbem as they
are commanded to do in the fifth command
meut in order to teach their children that
law, they must be sober, industrious parents.
Now on what principles shall we as O
Society pursue our work ?
I've must believe that Christ came to
save the lost-and this includes the drunk
ards, and we must tell them that fact.
2-We must try to lead the druukard to
Christ, who can save him and no matter
how oftep a person breaks the pledge we
must never give HIM mp. Mr.. Moody told
of a man who broke it each time, but he did
not give him.up, but got him to aign it the
twenty-ffth time, and since then he has kept
it.
3-Christ had compassion for sinners.
so we must pity the drunkards and try in
every way possible to shew them that they
can be converted by God and thus thorough
ly SAVED. This ought to be the great aim Of
our Tomherddpe Society, to assist the drunk
ard to get new friends, new associations and
surroundings, and help him to lead q higher
spiritual life.
Rev. Mr.. Romig IN a few closing words
urged all parents, wives and husbands, as
weH as sons and daughters, to join our Socio-

that we have not had . public Temperance
