CHILD HAD 60 BoIls
And Suffered Annually with Red
ScaId-Like Humor on Her Head.
TROUBLES CURED BY CUTICURA

"When my little Vivian was about
six months old her head broke out in
boils. She had about sixty in all and
l used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment which cured her entirely. Some
time later humor broke out behind
her ears and spread up on to her head
until it was nearly half covered. The
humor looked like scald, very red
with sticky. clear fluid coming from
it.. This occurred every spring. l al
ways used Cuticura Soap and Ointment
which never failed to heal it up. The
last time it broke out it became so bad
that was discouraged. But continued

VOTE IS VERY lIGHT.
Election Last tuesday Causes No Great Stir
Among Voters Of County.

So for as Randall county is
concerned it does not make much
difference whether or not the
people of the state do want TO
change the constitution. The
Randall county people are too
busy doing well and attending to
their own business to vote upon
such things as a constitutional
amendment. At least so it APP
peared from the light vote polled
last Tuesday when three amend
ments were to be voted upon.
Only one box, so for as heard
from, in the entire county held
an election and that was in this
city, the total vote being only IL
and the expense of the election
was about 80 cents for each vote
cast. Anyhow T. people Of this
city had an idea that they didn't
spend their one. six bits for no
thing and therefore took advan.
tage of the occasion to use their
poll tax receipt.
Each of the three amendments
received almost a unanimous
vote. one of them having seven
against it, another three while
the other took the entire mum
Der. Indications from all over
the state show that the three
amendments would carry by a
large majority, the first time in
the history Of the state when
more than one amendment was
proposed at the same time, and
all proposed amendments car
ried.

ENGINEER EMPLOYED.
Prominent Engineer Of Dallas Will Have Charge
Of Work of Installing Sewerage System,

Last Friday afternoon the city
dads got together and employed
a civil engineer to prepare the
plans and specifications and to
supervise the construction of
the new water and sewerage
systems for this city. This
man is Engineer Dalton of Dial
las and he has already begun the
work of making preliminary
survey.
On Wednesday the engineer
and city officials were looking at
various locations for the disposal
plant of the sewerage system
and when approached by the
News representative stated that
until further arrangements had
been made with the various
owners, the engineer nor the
city council would have nothing
to make public.
This is the first step since the
bond election looking toward the
installation of the plant. Mr..
Dalton has had a large and ex-
tenSive connection with the wa
ter and sewerage systems of the
South and comes to this city
well recommended. He thinks
that sufficient system for this
city can be installed for the mon
ey which will be available.

OPPORTUNITIES.
There is an Old Saying-That Opportunity
Comes but Once This is an Exception.

There is an old saying that
fortune knocks but once at every
mans door, which in some cases
is true, but not in every case.
Every dime saved is that much
towards a fortune.
For the last thirty days there
has been opportunities TO save
money offered to the people of
this county and a great many
have taken advantage of them. a
few have been unbelievers and
let the chances pass by. If a
man should tell you that he
would give you fifteen dollars for
ten fifty, you would think he was
crazy. Wouldn't you: We would,
but for Saturday, Monday and
Tuesday we will give you the
chance to get a fifteen dollar suit
for ten fifty because we have too
many in stock. We will give you
just that much to get them off of
our hands and make room for
our fall line. We will also give
you the choice of any of the Hart
Schaffner and Marx suits from
the spring stock at fifteen dollars.
You can also save money by buy
ing your oXfOrds even if you
don't need them. for shoes are
advancing every week and next
spring you will have to pay at
least fifteen per cent more. a
five dollar oxford for three eigh-
ty, four dollar one for two nine
ty five. The ladies will have an
opportunity to buy any of our
ready to-wear at a discount of
from twenty five to fifty per cent.
This will be the last time this
season that we will put on sale
on these lines and we intend to
clean them up, so don't wait un-
til they are all gone and be sorry
that you missed your opportu-
nifty.
