NO RACE SUICIDE
FOR TEDDYLlNE'
ST. Bernard Gives Birth to Sixteen
Puppies. All Big and Sturdy.
Sired by a Cup
Winner

"Teddyline," the prize st. Bernard
owned by Domenice Ruggiero, has
given birth to sixteen puppies, sired
by Rover, winner of the Bristol cup.
All the puppies are big and sturdy
and it appears as though "Teddyline"
will establish an enviable record for
anti-race suicide by rearing the entire
litter.
Two of the pups are nearly pure
white, with a small orange spot over
each eye and ear. Persons familiar
with the st. Bernard breed of dogs say
the white animals are rare and very
valuable.
Mr.. Ruggiero, the owner, is proprie-
tor of the Milano cafe on North Main
street.

A small audience, about half fill
ing the lower floor of the Seelye
theatre, attended the booster" meet
ing last evening. Rev. DR.. Blayney

talk.
G. B. Irving of Chicago spoke for
nearly two hours. He had gathered
through interviews large collection
of grouches against firms and indi-
viduals and these he read, naming
names and making long list OF al
legged faults of the town. Some were
perhaps deserved; others gave evil
dence that he had been misinformed.

most OF its advertising and the editor
would be licked before seven o'clock

and to buying goods out of town, rip
ped up the newspapers, scolded the
merchants for not advertising more
freely, held up other towns as shin
ing models for Abilene, criticised the
investments of Abilene capitalists,
etc. He advised more loyalty to Abb
lene, advertising the town, said Abb
lene people should always say Getty"
instead of town" and gave other
helpful directions along this line.
The address is one that he gives
in a number of Kansas towns this
month, changing the local references
to suit local conditions.

Keep the Balance Up.

1t has been truthfully said that
any disturbance of the even balance
of health causes serious trIuh's No
body can be too careful to keep this
balance up. When people begin to
lose appetite, or to get tired easily,
the least imprudence brings on sick
ness, weakness or debility. The sys-
TEN needs a tonic, Graves 1t, and
should not be denied it; and the best
tonic Of which we have any know
ledge is Hoods sarsaparilla. What
this medicine has done in keeping
healthy people healthy, In keeping up
the even balance Of health, gives 1t
the same distinction as a preventive
that It enjoys as a cure. Its early
use has illustrated the wisdom Of
the old saying that a stitch in time
saves nine. Take Hoods for appe-
tlte, strength and endurance.

STATE FEDERATION OF CLUBS
WILL MEET IN ABILENE
Next Session Is to Be Held in This
City.

Hutchinson, May S.-The State
Federation of Women's clubs will
meet in Abilene next May. At the
selection of meeting place Mrs. o. L,
Moore of Abilene in well chosen
words invited the Federation to meet
in Abilene. This was laid on the
table until Friday morning on ac-
count of the lateness Of the hour.
Then it was accepted.
Miss Ida Romig of Abilene gave
an interesting talk on Library
Work" She emphasized the need
of better catalogues and more capa-
BILE librarians in order to give the
help to the growing citizens of the
town. Miss Romig urged that Lii
brary Commission be appointed by
the state and an organizer be sent
out to help all librarians. The work
accomplished by the Wisconsin COM
mission was explained that better
idea might be CLEANED by all present.
The teaching of the public that Ii
brary was not luxury but neces-
sity was a thought from Miss Romig's
talk that stuck many as key note
of library work. Speaking of Car
negie libraries she said when Mr..
Carnegie gives to libraries he makes
no contract. There is no reversion
of property to him or his estate. The
only condition is that the city by tax
provide an annual income of ten per
cent of the Carnegie donation. There
is no need to talk of tainted money.
1t is good enough to accept and use
for public purposes. In library
only such books shall be purchased
which are fit for the general public.
Bad books should not be tolerated.
They should be kept out. DR.. Quayle
said the way to stop the epidemic
of unwholesome literature was SIM
ple-'God would kill off the old peo-
pie and we should train the young
people right In answer to questions
Miss Romig said that in her exper-
fence with Carnegie libraries are
great success.

Goddard Sc, Mrs. Hoffman So, Mrs.

HOW ABOUT CEMENT ROADS?
An Authority Says They Are Cheap
and Durable.

Will Abilene soon be building roads
of cement or concrete? Many towns
are now building them and find them
fine and inexpensive.
at is a mistaken idea that cement
and concrete roads are only good for
boulevard traffic." says Perry H.
Wilson, associate member of the
American Society of Cement Engin-
GERS in Concrete Age. ut has been
demonstrated in different places in
the country, and you don't have to
journey further than Chicago to get
a comprehensive idea of their worth,
that cement roads for general traffic
have given better satisfaction than
macadam or asphalt or any Of the
other combinations experimental
with. In the road for general use the
cement must be thicker; that is the
only difference between the boule-
yard road and the other.
"In fact, the steel corks on the
shoes of the horses and the steel
tires on the vehicles only serve to
improve a good road made Of cement
or concrete. The travel makes just
enough of an impression on the ma
terial to create a roughness which is
desirable for the safety in all kinds
of weather.
1.-THE cheapness of the cement road
is an item which cannot be overlook
ed. | estimate that a first class road
can be built Of cement for sixty-five
cents a square yard and such road
will last we'll, can not say how long,
but konw of cement roads which
have been constantly used for the
past ten years that are still in good
condition, and with the continual
progress being made in the industry
from year to year 1t seems such
roads are almost indestructible.
when you compare this kind of a
road with asphalt at S1.25 a square
yard of with macadam at IS cents to
81 a yard, you will readily see that
cement is certain to become a factor
in the solution Of the good roads pro-
blem."
