War is an institution Of ignO-
rance. There is today new
patriotism in the world. Patri-
otism now means honest dealing
with your fellow. man instead of
shooting him in battle. The in
telligent man no longer wishes
to die for his country but live for
it. He wishes to build up conf
dence in officers.
1t is not possible for country
to make progress without conf
dence in its officers. Civic hon
esty is impaired without conf
dence.
Capt. Phillips illustrated the
new spirit Of the age in the bat.
tie of Santiago Harbor. When
the battle ships Of the Spaniards
were sinking the American sol
diers began to wave flags, shout
and rejoice. Capt. Phillips ex
claimed, Don't shout, boys, the
poor devils are dying" Why
should they be dying! Those
young Spanish boys with life
before them were sacrificed on
the altar Of the god of Mars.
The Spanish-American war
directly cost the United State
enough money to build q nation
al university with an endowment
of SO, 900, 600. 90; in every state
a university with $40, 600, 600, 90;
100 high schools, $4,000, 5 nor.
NAL schools, 500, 900, or 5 tech
nical schools 500, 900; 80 girls
SIS, 900; and one million to public
schools. The civil war indirectly
cost the United States 81 bill
lions dollars. This amount
would build the Panama Canal,
build canal from Chicago to
New Orleans, drain all the
swamp lands of the United
States, control overhows, irri.
gate all ar rid land, build 5000
miles of good roads in each state
1t would build a s $500 house for
every family in the United States
My flag is red, white and bule,
and my battle cry is Educate
the Children"

The June crop reporter issued
by the Federal Department of
Agriculture reports 33, 418, 600
acres of cotton in the Uuited
States and of this acreage Texas
is credited with 10, $4,000. We
have approximately one-third of
the cotton acreage of the United
States and 10 per cent of the
world acreage. The cotton con-
ditiOn in Texas is reported at
1O5 per cent as compared with
last year and the recent rains in
the cotton belt districts of the

CALOMEL IS DANGEROUS
Is 4 Powerful Chemical Made From
Murcury-People Should
be Careful.

The only sure way to avoid
the danger of calomel is to take
no calOmel.
Dodson's Liver-Tone, a vegeta,
BILE liquid of pleasant taste, more
than takes it's place. Where
calomel shakes you up and
shocks your liver, Donson's
Liver Tone, mild, but effective,
builds up and strengthens. 1t
'livens up the liver"
It may be taken without any
restrictions of diet or habits.
You can give it to your children
with fine results.
Get a bottle at the Rexall Drug
Store and if it doesn't do all that
you think it ought-if it doesn't
make bilious spells mere tritles
ii it doesn' "liven up your liv.
err" your money will be waiting

Letter TO ". I. Gillespie,
Jefferson. Texas.

Dear Sir: Todd & Downing,
contractors and builders, Nor
gan City, La, have painted De-
voc for three or four years.
They say it takes less gallons
Devoe than any other paint they
have used. That means that a
job costs less with Devoe; not
only for paint, for labor as we'll.
They paint nothing else, Devoe
exclusively.
They have said nothing about
the comparative wear of Devoe
and others; oversight maybe:
perhaps too soon for that. But
Devoe is the strongest paint;
that's why least gallons; best
wear, same reason. Least cost
and longest time between jobs.
Yours truly
