New York Bench Show Opens.
(Herald Specially


New York, Feb. 9.-The barks,
bays and yelps of three thousand
dogs, representing every breed known
to the fancier, resounded today
through Madison Square Garden,
where the thirty-fourth annual show
of the Westminster Kennel Club was
opened under promising auspices. The
Boston terriers and French bulldogs
have the largest numerical representa-
ton this year. Other breeds that at
tracted attention among the early
visitors were the Yorkshire and Nal
tese terriers, Japanese and Pekinese
spaniels, toy poodles and Chihuahuas,
Airedale terriers, English, Gordon and
Irish settlers, Russian woolhounds,
American and English foxhounds,
bloodhounds, st. Bernards and Great
Danes, collies, daschunds and beagles.
The Judging began as soon as the
exhibition opened today and will con-
time until the close Saturday night.

FILE SUIT AGAINST i. & G. N.
Alleged That Road Has Refused to
Provide Protection For Employees.

Austin, Texas, Feb. 7.-Joseph S.
Myers, head of the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, today called upon the coun-
ty attorney of McLennan county to
proceed against the international and
Great Northern Railway company for
failure to comply with the act of the
last legislature requiring receivers to
provide sheds over car repair tracks
for the protection of the repairers. 1t
is charged by Mr.. Myers that the In
ternational and Great Northern has
violated the law at Mart, where it
has division shops. The law says that
such protection shall be afforded
where five or more men are employed
in repairing cars.
Mr. Myers has also given informa-
ton that the Cotton Belt has violated
the same law in failing to provide
shelter for car repairers at Waco.
Mr.. Myers is inclined to think that the
International and Great Northern has
wilfully refused to obey the law for
the purpose of furnishing a case to
test the constitutionality of the law
Pat Neff is county attorney at
Waco. His cases may furnish the
litigation which will determine the
status of the car repair sheds law of
the Thirty-first legislature.

condition is in many cases due to a
| catarrhal condition of the whole sys-
tenn which finds its expression in sal
low, muddy complexion, dark-circled
eyes, general weakness of the system,
and perhaps most plainly in the weep
ing of mucous membranes that is
commonly called catarrh.
In fact this whole tendency is, prop
erly speaking, catarrh. Danish this
catarrh and the complexion will

en- faces become rosy and shoulders

perfect health, and perfect health for
women can only be obtained through
one certain treatment-that which
will cure catarrh.
Nine Swift, New York, the famous
beauty specialist known throughout
the world and an accepted authority
on all relating thereto, states that the
one positive and permanent relief for
catarrh is Rexall Mucu-Tone Here is
her letter:

made for ReXall Mucu-Tone as a cure
for systemic catarrh Its tonic effects
are remarkable 1t builds up the
strength and restores vitality. If wo-
men who are tired and run down,
lacking in energy and vitality, will
use Rexall Mucu-Tone, they will
praise as l do the strengthening and
healing qualities
Rexali Mucu-Tone works through
the blood, acting thus upon the mu-
cous cells-the congestion and in
Illumination of which causes local ca

be expelled from the system, and the
blood is purified and revitalized. Thus
the natural functions of the mucous

THE BEGINNING OF LENT
Social Pleasures Will Give Place to
Season of Fasting and Prayer.
Effect In New York.
(Herald Specially

New York. Feb. 9.-Today, Ash
Wednesday, marks the beginning of
Lent, when social pleasures are sup
posed to give place to season of fast
ing and prayer. So far as New York
is concerned the social season has
been on the wane for several weeks,
many of the notable contributors to
the winters entertainment having al
ready taken their departures for the
south, the Pacific coast OF Europe.
For those who remain in town, how
ever, the Lenten period does not nee
essarily mean sackcloth and ashes.
Dinners, operas, bridge parties and
sewing classes, varied by numerous
concerts and other entertainments for
charity, with a few very small and
private dances thrown in, comprise
the usual diversions for the peniten-
tial period.
This is the time when society wo-
men remaining in town rest and re-
cuperate after their winter of gaiety
and get themselves in good condition
for spring travels and summer dissi-
pations Lectures are a daily diet.
Art, literature, politics, history and
hygiene are discussed to the mental
and physical improvement of the lis
teners 1t is harvest time for teach
ers of various arts. Riding lessons
form a part of the program during
Lent, while singing, fancy dancing,
fencing, swimming, ice skating and
gymnastics all are practiced by the
fashionable young women of society
who, as matter of fact, enjoy these
occupations as a contrast to their
more conventional life of the winter.
Nor is the religious aspect of Lent
wholly lost sight of in the metropo-
