"TEXAS" is COMING,

The Norfolk Landmark has the fol
lowing to say of the play Texas
winch recently played to a packed
house in that city, and which is billed
for Hattiesburg at an early date:
The audience that taxed the capaci.
ty OF the house was present last night
in the Cranky theatre when Texas"
was presented there for the first time.
Texas" an unusually interesting story
of the Lone Star State, is easily the
equal of Arizona" the only difference
being that the show of last night is
minus the military features of the
Thomas play. Texas" was magnifi.
Gently staged and superbly acted, the
presenting company being unusually
clever. The scenic effects were a fea.
ture and carried one right down into
the heart of the great ranch in the
southwest. A particular feature of the
play was the comedy part. The pa
thos and comedy were cleverly blend
ed. Texas" is high-class play in all
ne name implies. 1t is a play for the i
masses and that 1t will draw large au-
licences all week goes almost without

Importance attaches to an article on
Last Stand of the Indian" by Emer-
son Hough in Hampton's Magazine
for April Mr.. Hough was in Okla
homa making a study of the Indian
problem when Gov. Haskell and Sena-
tor Owen were indicted. In a scath-
ing arraignment of the whites for
their shameless pillaging in Oklaho-
ma, the article reviews the story of
the Indian since the time of Lewis
and Clark
When cases of squatter occupancy
on Indian lands, or Indian claims on
treaty land, came before Clark, our
first Indian commissioner" says Mr..
Hough, "he stood for a square deal
and justice even to the Indian. The
white men came to hate Clark be-
cause of his honesty and few of them
chose to abide by his decisions He
gained the confidence of the Indians
and no one of them was ever known
to appeal from his decision.
I'm 1915 all these despairing In
dams concluded to go to st. Louis
and ask the Red-Head Chief, as Clark
was called, what was best for them
to 90. This was one of our greatest
Indian councils. 1t was the real foun-
datlon of these Indian lawsuits which
are now going down in Oklahoma.
Since 1889 the United States had
tried eight distinct policies upon him
and it has been small wonder If he
has been confused. First, his tribes
were treated as independent nations.
Next came the trading-post scheme;
then the ward idea with the war de-
partment as guardian, to be suppressed
ed, in 1S49 by the interior depart
ment. AS fifth move the red men
IN each state or territory were organ
lied (until President Grant abolished
the system in 1869 under a superin-
tendency, with, generally, the COM
monwealth's governor for superin-
tendent That was followed by the
reservation plan which fell before
the constant demand for more land
by prospective white settlers, and
this was finally superseded by the
DRY that the Indian could be made
INTO ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, seeds,
clothing, and rations being issued to
each red man. Then, as an eighth
and last resort, we fall back upon the
idea of education.
There may be some in the benight-
ed East who fancy the Indians of Ok

but as a matter of fact, the term
indian does not mean real Indian to-
day. Black blood is not socially re-
ceived in any part of the United
states today, but Indian blood con-
stltutes no social disqualification
rather to the contrary, speaking at
least for this part of the country;
because each Indian, man, woman and
child' has farm, and many of the
farms have rich oil wells and coal

What 1t Is

What 1t Is
Is liquid and dgests ALL foods.
Because food must digest.
Undigested food trouble sooner
later
Long continued Indigestion results in various
kinds of dyspepsia, rheumatism, neuralgia and
other diseases, hard or impossible to cure.
At the least indigestion deprives the system
of nourishment. A poorly nourished body falls
an easy victim to the prowling microbes of con-
tagious and infectious diseases.
Someone had to make a dgester-a perfect
digester.
We did it and named it Kodol!
Why 1t Is
The perfect digester must be in liquid form
that its action may be quick it be
swallowed. The perfect digester must be
harmless Kodol contains narcotic other
hurtful ingredients. The perfect digester must
have tonic qualities
Kodol is a liquid.
Kodol increases food enjoyment, and that with
out the illehects of toncs based on stimuants.
Kodol is the result of careful analysis of all
of the digestive fluids in the mouth, stomach
and intestines and of observation of their eff
fects separately and in combination, all class
es of food that people eat
Albumen is digested by pepsin Kodol
tains pepsin. 1t also contains hydrochloric
acid because pepsin cannot do complete work with
out it; and pancreatin because that too is neces-
sary. There fats and starch and other food
elements, to be looked after.
Kodol will take care of any or ALL
What 1t Does
1t stops Indigestion by taking the place of the
digestive fluids. 1t prevents disease by reducing
the tendency 1t tones the system by restoring
(not stimuating) the appetite. 1t induces sleep
without being sedative. 1t empties the bowels
