Boys at Juarez Agricultural

WHAT TAILOR Is
OUT HIS CLOTH?
Two Handsome Pieces Are
Lost and Juarez Police
Find Them.

What tailor OF FL Paso has lost two
handsome pieces of cloth? The Juarez
police have the cloth, a conventional
gray and sassy green brown
Yesterday Manuel Nava, a musician
of the Mexican city, purchased the
pieces from two strangers, at a re-
duced rate of course. Now Nava
has not been arrested. for the po-
lice believe him innocent of any wrong
other than bargain hunting. But the
two men Will be arrested If they can
be found
Both pieces bore an American stamp
and as only French and English goods
are sold in Mexican stores, It is NAT
urally deducted that an FL Paso, not a
Juarez merchant has suffered

Saws She Does Not Believe in
Working for Sympathy
Because of Her Sex-Her
Opinion of Chewing Gum.

81 will make their jaws wag for a
fortnight over it" Harry Lehr is said
to have declared when he gave that
monkey dinner back in New York city.
Perhaps he did make their jaws wag
for awhile.
But there is a woman in Ell Paso
today who makes more jaws wag than
all the four hundred of New York, and
she has her own original way about
doing lit. Last year she sold 100000
worth of chewing gum, and that means
more than 100000 chews. If that
does not beat a monkey dinner what
does?
Now Miss Ida Lawrence not only
makes jaws wag by selling chewing
gum, but she is one of two women
drummers in the United States, and,
Of course. that means the world. Also
she Is by far the best known of the
two, and is proud of the fact. For
eight years Miss Lawrence has been
working the United States from
coast to coast.

When the pure food fad came tearing
along Miss Lawrence went tearing out
for business with a sample case Of
Stuff-and-run Pure Food, made in Bat

heard of one. and she was the very
first to make a success Of It. There
