Not Only Popular But a
Chance That is Appreciated
By Men Who Want
To Succeed

There is lots of satisfaction when you sell man a
piece of property and then he thanks you for selling
him and invites the ''house'' to cigars. But that
very thing occurred in our office recently and the
man was among those who purchased one of the
Ssmall tracts in the upper Mesilla Valley There is
always one thing that this firm has done-Sto see
that the property is just represented to prospect
i've buyers.'' That's one reason when we get Gus
toner that he always comes to when he desires to
invest again When we tell customer that five
acres ten acres 20 acres of the small tracts which
we are selling in the upper Mesilla Valley will pay
for the farm IN one year what we say and
can convince anyone who will believe in facts. And
we repeat that one crop of onions cantaloupes will
paw for one of the tracts-whether 20 acre
one. We still give years time the remaining
tracts and the man who wants to be his own boss
make better money than he ever made before and
live an Independent life should investigate this.
We would be glad to tell you all about this PROPOSE

Prof. Phelps and Doas.

Billy Phelps is without doubt the wtttiest member of the Yale faculty. He not only holds the interest of his classes by a. scintillating series of cIev- CT puns and jokes, but often gains a point in discipline by a thrust of hu- nor. So when an obnoxious dog walk ed into his recitation room, and when surreptitious whistles and whispered coaXingS for the animal to come within tail reach were seriously disturbing discipline, he looked up calmly and re- marked: Will some one please re- move that puppy; we will conf1ne our the admiration as well as the attention of his pupils. He carried off another dog strained situation at West Point, where he was giving a special course 1f lectures last year, with characteriS- tic finesse. While he was featuring in the chapel the cadets rigidly paying attention, erect. eyes front, each man 1 ramrod of military etiquette, Irish

Science Itself ChaIIenued

A s2o,0oo damage suit has been in- stituted against Prof Edward Plymp-. ton Adams, head of the department of physics in the Palmer laboratory of Princeton university, and Prof. How ard McClenahan. also of Princeton for careless application of the X-raxs. The claim made is that X-rays were applied to discover the nature and extent of the injuries sustained by patient, but were continued for so long time that the patient was badly burned externally and internally the burns resulting finally in gangrene poison. It is charged that three ap- plications of the X-ray were made, each lasting five minutes, whereas the time should not have been more than that number of seconds
 A charge of this nature demands the most serious investigation, for it affects to a certain degree the whole field of science In the hands of scientists rests an immense responsi- bility, conferred by the knowledge which has been acquired by years of study To abuse this responsibility Is to lessen the opportunity for more rapid advancement of science and to endanger the lives of human beings- New Bedford Standard

COUNTY ROBUSTNESS.

We are gratified to find some of our democratic contemporaries express ing the same dislike for the county as governmental integer that has so often been expressed in these columns.
 When you come right down to the cold facts, the county defines areas or crime A few side issues have been been added to the duties of a county but the chief business is caring Tor criminals and incidentally granting H. censes for the sale of intoxicating liquor. which. in SO many cases helps to i'll the jails up. The county IS merely divison of convenience. There might just well be twice as many or half as many; there happen to be eight If there were none we would stlll be the state of Connecticut with 16S towns, each a little autonomy.
 There have been numerousp divisions or counties Starting with one we have reached eight. There is no sort of logical reason for that county loy atty that IS such a noticeable feature of political conventions. We must stand by the county" you hear from Holland Middlesex. Windham and oth- CT counties: and not one in a thousand Of these devotees of their respective counties knows that such towns as Holland and Stafford Middletown and Chatham or Windham and Plain held were at one time in Hartford county. Occasionally county line is shifted and a town formerly in one
 
 ed to another Nothing happens; the house and barns and fences are right where they were before. but the own CT discovers, in the case. for example of Voluntown. that whereas the day before he had to stand by -Windham county, now it has become equally his duty to go back on all he has been standing by and stand by New Lon don county. Of course, it is ridicu- lous.
 This, however is only a matter of sentiment. In the practical relations of life. the chief question is one of government. In the matter of jails. we cannot see any reason why the state should not maintain those institutions Nobody was ever put in a county jail for an offense against county law for there is no county law to offend. The granting of licenses is a hard nut to crack. It is not job that any estab- lished authority craves. Suggest to judge that the judges should appoint license commissioners, and see what he thinks about dragging the ju- dietary" into politics You can easily find out. But surely some way can be found; and. as for maintaining the free bridges, it is much more fair for the state to do this than to load it upon the county We have called at tention hitherto to the state of things in Middlesex county. The Middletown bridge was freed by the state and now the maintainance falls on the county. ne eitecl oI tuiS arrangement IS 10 throw on lot of Middlesex people who never used or do use the bridge at all the expense of running it and to let lot of people from other coun- ties who used to pay the tolls that maintained the bridge go across now free of cost.
 Whether anything will come of the growing talk about the county may be questioned. But 1t is well to have the public come to a realizing sense of how little that political division really amounts to.-The Courant

"Stop. Look and Listen"

Pedestrians are slowly but steadily learning the lesson tfaah before they step off the curb they must stop, look and listen." in accordance with the old fundamental doctrine of law governing the responsibility of individuals when approaching a potential source Of dan ger. such as a railroad crossing. It should not be necessary for the motor ist to sound a horn to let anybody know of his presence in the neighbor- hood. Of course occasionally condi- tions develop when such a warning is required, such as when a car suddenly come sout from behind a screen of other vehicles, and which it is overtak- in or at some congester crossings Yet with everybody footing at once the value of the warning of such a horn is diminished.
 Unless some check is put upon the volume or character of the sound pro duced by the auto horns pandemohium will quickly ensue. There is now a large premium awaiting the man who can invent some new form of shocker. screeches howler or other arrester of attention, and at the present rate of progress our streets will soon be a bed lam of hideous sounds. with pedestri- ans more confused and in greater dan ger than ever unless they rely strictly upon the eyes and place no faith what ever in their ears for their protection.

Waller on the Campaign.

Former Governor Thomas M. Waller of New London, a warhorse democrat and a careful student of Connecticut politics, has handed out some advice to the leaders of his party. and he has done it in ample time to leave no ex- cuse on their part if they fail to fol- low it. He thinks he sees. this year conditions which afford the demo- crats a fair chance of winning in case they will do the right thing at the right time- The right time. he be- ieves, is the near future, and the right thing, he ayers, is to nominate as their leader former Judge Simeon F. Bald win. This advice coming along at the same time that similar sentiment has been publicly expressed in the leading newspapers of the state, regardless of political preferences, is significant. It indicates a oneness of osinion asmonA thinking men as to whit should De done by Connecticut democrats if they would not leave themselves open to censure for failure in the coming cam paign.
 MT. Waller says in part: It's time the democrats got busy and nominated some one to head the state ticket who is fitted for the office of governor rath- CT than that of alderman. The party should revert to the policy in force years ago of putting up a strong can didate, a man that stands for some thing in democratic politics. Select a man or the cdnDre or the men that won out in democratic politics before the people acquired the habit of nomi- mating men of my stamp. The party can stand occasional lapse from the policy of putting up it's best man, as in my case. but it's not a good habit to acquire and it's time to go back to such men as Morris and Ingersoll and others, who have stood for something g in years past Judge Simeon F.. Bald win is just the man for this year. I don't mean to infer that there are not other strong men at the present time in the democratic party but Baldwin is the man for this particular emer- gency. Not a candidate that has been mentioned in connection with office is in his class this year It's a. case this time of the particular man for the particular time, and Baldwin is that man."
 MT. Walters advice is good. This is not a year for either party to hand out gubernatorial nomination to a man who is of no larger than alder manic caIibre. The position calls fer something more than a wire puller. something more than a candidate who must buy his way in or stay out. MT. Waller suggests that it needs a Nor ris. but perhaps 1t would be just as well if we had a Hawley, a Mclean, or-why not a Waller?

BASEBALL POOL GAME
 STOPPED IN NEW HAVEN.
Has Been Running Here for Short
 Time on Similar Plan.

The following from the New Haven Register of Wednesday evening, will be of interest in view of the fact that here are interested in such plan:
 Following complaints from mothers that their sons who work in shops and factories were spending too much of their weeks wages n chances in base ball pools, Chief of Police Cowles this morning sent detectives and police officers to the shops and saloons, mo- tifying those who were conducting baseball pools that they will be ar rested if they do not stop the games at once. Charges of gaming will be placed against them.
 In almost every shop in the city baseball pools made upon tn the scores were running. This is prohibinted by Section 1859 of the genea1 statutes, which provides a penalty of not more than $500 ir i'm priSonment for one year or both-
 Chief of Police Cowles this morning said that he had sent police officers and detectives to all shops and sa- looms where he has Knowledge of the running and conducting of pools, and warned them that if the practice did not stop they would be subject to ar rest. He also gave instructions to all police officers to notify saloonists or any other places where baseball pools were likely to held on their beat, re- garding the same. Chief Cow1es fur ther stated that the order goes into effect today, and if the pools are not ended arrests will follow before the week is up
 Not in years has any craze swept through the ranks of the sorting fra ternity in this city as has the baseball pooling scheme, played this season. Nearly a dozen places had installed large score boards. contracted for thousands of tickets and engaged the services of men to dispose of tickets and boost the game. The warning from Chief Cowles certainly acted in a very dampening way and there were few tickets seen about the streets this noon.
 The system was simple and the idea most inviting. One drew a card seal ed in an envelope. Printed on the ticket were the teams in the three leagues. There was a punch in the name of one team in each league, mak- ing a combination of three. If the three teams in the combination drawn were the leaders in run getting during the day the lucky one received $10. There was also D rize for the weekly total There were many notifications of the idea. but the one quoted above was the most popular and most gen. eraIIV followed.

FEED CHILDREN On P1operIy Selected Food. It Pays
 Big Dividends.

If parents will give just a little in telligent thought to the feeding of their children the difference in the health of the little folks will pay, many times over. for the small trouble
 A mother writes saying: Our chil- dren are all so much better and strong CT than they ever were before we made a change in the character of the food. We have quit using potatoes three times day with coffee and so much meat
 Now we give the little folks some fruit, either fresh, stewed or canned, some Grape-Nuts with cream, occa- sionally some soft boiled eggs, and some Pestum for breakfast and supper. Then for dinner they have some meat and vegetables.
 Ut would be hard to realize the change in the children. they have grown so sturdy and strong. and we attribute this change to the food ele- ments that, I understand, exist in Grape Nuts and Postum.

HERBERT Nj. LEROU
 ELECTED VICE PRESIDENT
At Annual Meeting of State Pharma-
 ceutical Association at New Haven.

The Connecticut Pharmaceutical as sociation Wednesday at New Haven quietly buried the recommendation that a druggist be expelled from the association for the illegal selling of liquor upon conviction. The matter was laid over for 8 year.
 The pharmacy laws are left to the legislative committee Advertising private disease remedies was heartily condemned and a recommendation adopted that patent medicines be pro hibited from window displays, that is medicines the fornulae of which is unknown to the druggist. Preparations made by the druggists are not barred.
 The recommendation that the physi- clans prescriptions be not shown to any other physician without written consent was left to the judgment of the druggist.
 What "country stores meant is still an open question Attorney General Holcomb leaving it to the supreme court to decide and says the location has nothing to do with the appellation.
 Endorsement was given to the rec ommendation dispensing with perni- cious advertising of pills and herbs and anything containing a suggestion of harmful results with regard to race suicide.
 The officers were elected as follows:
 Clarence E. Spalding. New HaNen, president.
 H. NJ Lerou, Norwich, and Arthur h. I|dInrOp, SlnSDuFE- wee pIeSlueHlS-
 Carlo Cyrus. Bridgeport, treasurer
 John Ebbs. Waterbury. secretary.
 The members presented to P F. Gar van, the retiring president, a gold jewel badge as a testim monia1 of their esteem for him.
 It was recommended that the pres ent methods of the Connecticut experi- ment station be abolished and that they follow out the method adopted by the pure food commission whereby they purchase three samples in the open drug market, leaving one sealed with the druggist, the commission holding one and send the third for analysis.
 The Connecticut experiment station cbases one sample, taking it out for analysis, with the result that the druggist has nothing to offer as evil dence that what he sold was of stan dard quality.
 The association went on record as endorsing the Connecticut pharmacy commission in enforcing the laws as they found them. There has been con siderable discussion of an unfavora'ble character throughout the state in re- gard to the present law. which went into effect last August. and which the commissioners are compelled to enforce at the present time This discussion arises through ignorance of the law
 The following names will be sent to the governor from which list he will select one member of the pharmacy commission: Clark H. H. Newton. Wa terbury: James P. Woods, New Ha- ven: Charles L. Finch, Stamford: P. J. Garvan Bethel; Samuel Chesbro Willimantic; Clarence II. Dubball Torrington.

NOTED VEGETARIANS.
George Bernard Shaw, Marie Corelli and Sarah Bernhardt Among Those Who Eat No Meat.

Waves of vegetarianisn come and go and on the whole it is likely that the fleshiess diet Is gaining favor. High priced meat has helped the movement and the testimony of brain workers continues to support it. At the pres ent time many of the worlds most famous men and women eat no meat at all.
 George Bernard Shaw is one of the vegetarian elect. He has not tasted flesh food for a quarter of a century And he will not touch tea. coffee. or alcoholic liquors. Otter his dinner consists entirely of three or four ba- nanas. The vigor of his writings seems to refute the charge that strength of intellect demands meat for nourishment.
 Marie Corelli, too. is a vegetarian. and. like Shaw, she loves a war of words and pens. The Countess of Warwick is a recent convert. Since she has been living on two meals a day, consisting of fruits, nuts, grains and vegetables, she has lost her stout ness and regained her youthful lines, we are told.
 Then there was Sarah Bernhardt. the ever youthful old woman of the French stage Alarmed bE~Ser ac- cumulating years. she took to a diet of uncooked vegetables and salads, in- cluding raw peanuts avoiding wines and other liquors. They say she looks almost girlish again. Cleo de Merode, the famous Paris dancer, started a year ago to follow Madame Bern hardt's example. She left the stage for several months and came back slen- derer, healthier and lovelier Raw vegetables did it, she said.
 Even royalty is numbered among the converts Princess George of Greece, who was Marie Bonap parte, has not eaten meat for two years and she de- clares that she will bring up her little son as a vegetarian. The ancient Greeks, she says, became a. powerful. intellectual nation a diet consisting chiefly of fruit and nuts; then why not the modern Greeks and the French too? The czarina of Russia likewise had stopped eating meat.
 Auguste Rodin, perhaps the greatest of living sculptors is a vegetarian. He says he can work better and longer without meat with stronger and finer inspiration. Mime. Maeterlinck, delving in mystic studies. agrees with Rodin. The great poets of the past, she in sists, and the old mystics and sages lived on a fleshless diet, and their thought was finer and their life hap pier because of it.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
