versation with the Advance man,
Capt. McAllen said that he had never
seen this country looking prettier or
in better shape at this time of the
year than it is at present. why,
fine corn and cotton could have been
made this year without irrigation, ("
said the Captain In fact" he con-
tinued, there is hardly year that
fine cotton cannot be made here with

as Kaffir corn and milo maize can be
grown here right along on the dry

the most successful tours ever made
by Texas amateur baseball team.
During the trip they have played
IA games, winning of them, los

have played not only the strongest
amateur teams in the state, but,
with probably one exception, their
umpires as well, and then put the

have played has sent to the larger

to be the champions of South and
Southwest Texas. Notwithstanding
the fact that. out of three series of
games played with Corpus Christi,
the latter team has come out the

that, of the three games played with

The Brownies never yet have re-
sorted to dirty playing or foul tao

win fairly and squarely, they would
rather lose them than to bear a rep

Victoria have.

There is absolutely nothing to
that Corpus Christi bunch of ball
players but gas. and por quality of
gas at that. Although claiming to
be the champions of the Gulf coast
country they have not met the
Brownies in series of games where
only clean ball will be played. Cor
pus knows too well that with a
square deal given by an umpire, they
would stand no more show of win

CONCERNING PROPER DIET

cooking authority, in a lecture at HUI
on said:
"A mar who works il the open air
can digest twice as much as those
who work in offices.

Children should feed on bone
building materials.
Water in Huron has plenty of
bone-making material: you should all
be seven feet in height.
1T takes a lean dog for a long

well cooked cereals are the best
things for boys and girls for break
fast.
Some people have a habit of swal-
lowing their food whole and then chew
gum for hours after.
Eat dates, figs, prunes ard baked
apples for breakfast. A child needs
oatmeal, fruit and whole wheat bread
for breakfast.
Don't criticize children for eating
too much, but for eating too fast.
The night meal should be very
light and at 6 o'clock.
Don't let a child lunch from the
time school is out until supper time
do not give a child tea or coffee;
teach them to drink water.
Milk, soft eggs, whole wheat
bread, cereals, milk toast, fruits, for a

WHY MEN WEAR TROUSERS.

No living man of this age, says the
Providence Journal, ever deliberately
chose to adopt trousers" He was
forced into them, and all other eccen
tricities of dress, by woman In the
very earliest sartorial experience of
every man he is swathed in a queer
bundle of incoherent bandages by a
woman. Later she puts him into
cute little dresses SO that the neigh
bors cant tell him from his little
sister. Still later she cuts off his curls
anG puts him into knickerbockers, and
he puts on long pants" when she
gives the word and not before. This
is all that man has to do or ever
had to do with wearing trousers.
Woman forced him into them in the
first place, and 10Y he is afraid to
wear anything else for fear of max
ing a sensation.

CIRCUS COMING.

The Valdon troupe of bicyclists will
positively appear with the Greater
Norris & Rowe circus when it exhibits
here. The troupe is acknowledged by
showmen to be the greatest in their
line that has ever come to this our
try. The demand for their services
has been great. At various times diff
ferent shows have advertised that the
Valdons would appear with their
shows, but it remained for Norris &
Rowe TO finally induce them to sign
contracts for the present tour and so
secured the services of an act that has
been the II big sensation of the
European capitals.
The troupe numbers seven in all,
four graceful young women and
three clever young men. They are
Americans. but their first big success
was scored at the Paris "HippOdrOme,
after which they went to- the Imperial
Opera House. ST. Petersburg, Russia,
and then scored numerous successes
throughout Germany. Charles Sasse
is the European representative for
Norris & Rowe and it was due to his
efforts that the showmen were able to-
ecude the services of the famous troup.
1t was thought hat every feat pos
sible had already been accomplished
upon a wheel, but it remained for the
seven Valdon troupe of expert trick
and fancy bicyclists to show the I'M
limited possibilities upon the safety.
Their act is characterized as sensa-
tiOnal il the extreme. They mount
upon each others shoulders and while
dashing around the stage rapidly turn
single and double somersaults. they
dismantle their wheels and continue
their wild dash in restricted circles.
While riding at top speed they leap
over hurdles, mount stairs and go
through so many difficult evolutions
as to win the admiration of all. 1t is
an act CT absorbing interest and will
positively be seen mere when Norris
& Rowe exhibit here next Monday,
June rs.
