FROM TADPoLE TO FROG.

There is probably nothing In the
animal kingdom which meets with
more remarkable changes in its nat
ural life than frog. 1t begins as

In it's early days, however, a tad
pole soon loses the outside part OF
its gills and breathes air, so that ii

ter every few minutes, like a porpoise
to take fresh breath.
During the early part of Its career
the tadpole swims by sculling with q
long tail. After awhile it's legs begin
to grow out, the hind legs coming
first. The tail gets to be shorter and
shorter, and when the tadpole is q
complete frog 1t has no tail at all
but swims by kicking.
When half frog and half tadpole II
still has u good deal Of tail, and In

The tadpole eats water plants, but

Later Ashton confirmed McIntyre's

Conditions In Mexico Are Getting
Worse Instead of Better-Amer-
leans Leaving the Country

NOGALES, Ariz., May 3.-What
ever the prospects Of peace at E
Paso and JuareZ, there are no peace
ful signs along the western coast OF
Mexico. News that dribbed into No.
gales from the various quarters OF
the states of Sinaloa and Sonora tel
OF scenes of disorder and almost con.
tinuOus fighting.
Apparent sedition and strife in
these states are rapidly increasing and
Americans in this city, familiar with
conditions across the border, regard
the situation as very grave. Not only
is the political welfare of western
Mexican states affected, but Ameri.
can interests are involved and in dan
ger, even the lives of Americans, hith-
ertO held sacred by federals and reb.
els, are no longer regarded as safe
il, the interior of Mexico.
Prominent railroad officials who
reached Nogales from Mexico today
brought with them warning from
the rebels to remove all their families
as quickly as possible into the Unit
ed States, and to advise all of their
American friends to do likewise. Cou-
pied with these warnings was the
threat of insurrectos that they intend
ed, before the end of the week, to
launch attacks against all the Mexican
border towns. Many American fami-
lies are coming across the border to-
day.

THE PLowBoY AND HIS HORSES.

Consider the horse how he plows,
or, for your greater profit consider
two horses and the difference between
them.
They stand at the end of row Of
trees in an orchard, and the plowboy,
who is paid for his time, has rolled .
cigarette and is resting and smoking
on full pay. His excuse for this kind
of work is one of the horses. Less
than an hour Before the team had
been put to the plow, and this horse
is breathless and covered with sweat.
He looks as If another furrow would
kill him. But, strangely enough, his
mate, which is of about the same
size and strength, shows no signs of
distress. He is calm and collected,
ready to rest and also ready to work.
The plowboy explains between puffs.
1t seems that the painting and
sw weating horse is the victim of an un-
fortunate temperament. He Ii high
strung and fretful. When he works
h, thrashes about and wears himself
out with excitement. He is not lazy,
but he is always worried. A large
percentage Of the energy with which
hs is endowed is wasted. The result
Is that he is exhausted after very
little labor.
The other horse takes things as they
come and frets not at all. He IL at
peace with the world as he stands
there waiting for the next command,
and when the command comes he will
go ahead in the same even temper.
He could do twice the work Of the
fretful horse and not feel 1t half as
much.
AS II Is with horses, so it is with
men. When there is fire-alarm at
tachment for every little task, Ill tenn
per, a waste of energy in nervous ex-
citement, there is a tremendous splut-
tering, but no getting anywhere. The
greatest work is to conquer the fret
ting. After that the real work Of
our lives will come easy.
This Is the moral preached by the
horses, but possibly the plowboy is
also an instructor who should not be
overlooked. He belongs to class
that Is rather common among the
youth of the land. Much Of his energy
disappears in the cigarette smoke and
in the strong epithets with which his
conversation is adorned. While he Is
consigning the tired horse to all sorts
Of troubles It is evident that he Is
glad Of an excuse for taking va
cation and charging 1t up to his en-
ployer. II his is the promise Of sffi-
cheney In fhe rising generation psr-
haps theI p an incidental uss for
horse-whipl ln farms that might be
o. great ben1Rt TO society.

enceless driver. Given team like
