Aguirro chief of the Havana (Cuba)
police force, who is here to study
New York police methods, Saturday

powered him. Thousands witnessed
the encounter.
The cabman was turned over to a

vender was also locked up for failure
to produce a license and Colonel

Boil WeeviIs Scarce.

Houston, Texas, July 14.-Boll Vice.
wills are scarcer in Texas this year
than for many years, and except in the
wooded valleys along the gulf coast,
the pest will do little damage to the
cotton crop. According to experts, the
thinning out of the boil weevil family
is due largely tc the two very hot and
dry summers just past and to the dry
weather this season. The excessive
heat causes the squares On the cotton
plant to dry up and fall off and the
weevil is deprived of its principal sus-
tenance and can not thrive This does
not injure the cotton, and in fact
causes the plants to grow larger The
bolls open later, however, and this
adds to the LANCER from frost.

STOMACH REMEDY
Guaranteed by E. ]. Jenkins.

If your stomach is weak and con-
stantly upset, you must quickly do
one or two things:
Allow the rest of your body to be-
come as weak as your stomach. Or
make your stomach as strong as your
body.
There is only one choice for those
who want to live and enjoy life, and
that is to make the stomach as strong
as the body.
This can best be done by using the
prescription Of specialist that in
years of practice gave immediate re-
lief and permanent cure to 80 per cent
of the people who used 1t.
This prescription is known from
coast to coast as MONA.
MONA stomach tablets, most peo-
pie call them, are guaranteed by Il. j,
jenkins to cure indigestion (acute or
chronic) or any upset condition of the
stomach, or money back
In five minutes they give relief from
heartburn, acid stomach, gas on stom-
ach, belching of sour food, fermenta-
ton, heartburn and waterbrash.
If you suffer from stomach trouble
get a large SOC box of MONA stom-
ach tablets today and put yourself on
the road to health. At h. J. jenkins
and leading druggists everywhere.

See Anything Funny?

There is a joke concealed in this
little tariff story, which is the reason
why it appears in this department.
The task of the reader will be to de-
tect the joke, then decide just whom
the joke is on.
This country consumes about 3,000,-
600 tons of sugar a year. OF this
amount 100000 tons is imported and
100000 tons produced at home. The
home product isn't worth as much as
Nebraska's egg and butter crop by
several millions of dollars. Yet under
the guise of protecting" the Ameri-
can sugar raiser the sugar consumers
are taxed about $250,000,O00 a year.
Sugar is retailing at about $1l7 a ton.
We could buy the home product and
give it away, paying the price now
obtaining under protection, then throw
it away, and save $170,O00,O00 a year
by putting sugar on the free list
Who is the joke on?-Commoner.

sUBNORMAL CHILDREN
Without Special Training viii Always
Be Dependent-With That Train
ing May Become Producers.
IBy Associated Press. !

lBy AsSocldteu ffeSS.l
San Francisco, Cal, July 1.-THE
child of today is of greatest economic
interest when considered as father to
the man of tomorrow" said Miss Vim
ME C. Hicks, special psychologist in
the public schools, in an address be-
fore the department of special educa-
ton of the National Education Asso-
citation. 1T follows, then, that the
definition of any type of child, such
as the 'subnormal,' must depend on
the probable conditions in adult life.
We expect the normal child to become
an adult who will be producing fac
tor in the community. We know that
the idiot will always be financially
dependent. Between these two lies an
underlined group which We dub sub
normal secretly wondering just what
We mean.
1--WE may group them according to
school retardation. We may give them
a pyscho-physical examination and de.
eide that those who fall certain dis
lance below the established norm are
subnormal. These and other methods
of grouping are helpful because they
necesSitate study OF the case. But
none of them are based on adult pos.
sbilities, though that is the phase of
the subject in which we are most vital
ly interested, and the one which must
be the practical basis for the sub
normals training,
MY own working definition Is this:
A subnormal child is one who, with
out special expert training, will prob
ably always be dependent, but who,
with that training, may possibly be-
come an Independent producer.
The definition suggests the scope
of the training Certain things the
man must know to be self-supporting.
He must be able to labor reasonably.
This includes both mental and moral
attitude toward his work and fellow
workers. He must know how to
reckon his wages and expenditures.
To help him cope with these necessi-
ties we must give him all manner of
co-ordinating games and exercises for
his physical and social benefit We
must teach him to calculate weights
and measures, time and money

How TO Tell When a Watermelon
Is Ripe,

Luther Burbank is said to be eX-
perimenting with watermelons, but it
is not to be hoped that he can do any
thing to improve the Texas product,
for the simple reason that perfection
can not be surpassed. Maybe, though,
he can discover an infallible test to
determine exactly when one is ripe,
which is the only thing that the Texas
melon lacks.-Bryan Eagle.
Why, that's the easiest thing in the
world to accomplish. Exchange has
never found it the least bit of trouble
Just you get a knife or a column rule
and split it-when you hear it snap
ping and popping, you can put up your
money that It's ripe. And then our
faster has never went back on us. If
any of our farmer friends wish to
know about this. just bring your mel
ons along. Well test them free of
cost.-Temple Telegram.

Wherein Girls Compromise Themselves

Girls, did YOU ever stop to think that
boys have more self-respect than the
members of your sex? There is not a
young man of any responsibility that
would be seen with girl that was in
toxicated. You might search the
streets with a fine-tooth comb and not
find young man who would lock arms
and go promenading with girl who is
putting cigar or squirting tobacco
juice around on the sidewalks. Some
girls have no hesitancy in accepting
the company of such characters and
too many of them are anxious 20 ac-
cept the hand of anything that wears
pants. Society will never be refined
until the girls demand of the boys the
same purity of character that the boys
demand of the girls. Over the heads
of the young ladies hang the POSSIBLE
tiles of the greatest moral reform that
ever swept over the country.-Elgin

Another large irrigation project is
in progress near Maria, in Preside
county. A large Kansas City irrigation
firm owns 1900 acres of land and
will construct dam across the
997 feet long and 10S feet high. With
the exception of the Medina river DAM
which is now in course of construction,
this will be the largest dam in the
state. Ii will be built of concrete and
the reservoir will have a capacity of
l120 acres, with an average depth of
80 feet. The improvement of this
13000-acre tract will cost over mill
ion dollars and will mean much to that
section of the state from an agricul-
tural standpoint.
The cotton field has aroused The in
ventive genius of the country, and 1t
is an important factor in medicine and
arts. The seed is food for man and
beast and cotton products appear in
numerous forms on all markets of the
world.
Brownsville has organized deep
water association and is falling in line
with the movement now on for deep
water at many places along the Texas
coast. Brownsville depends largely
upon overland shipments to get her
products to market, but the citizens of
that place are determined to continue
in their efforts until they secure one
of the most profitable waterways in
the country. Texas is a worlds factor
in commerce. and the opening mp and
improvement of our ports will greatly
lower the cost of transportation.
For the past half century cotton
has engaged the brightest intellects of
the world in science and commerce,
and many of its problems are only half
solved. The inventive minds of the
universe have poured over its fiber;
merchant princes have studied its
markets, and the ablest fnanciers have
sought to fix its value.

COTTON FIELDS BARE.

We noticed last week while out in

been practically covered by the army

ing few II any fields that have not
been entirely denuded of the leaves.
Fortunately, the worm seem to be do
ing no damage. but on the other hand
many farmers claim that by their ac-
ton in removing the leaves of the
plants has been an actual advantage
by causing the bolls to open earlier
than would have otherwise have hap
pened. II has been the fear of farm
ers that much of the cotton might not
open before the coming of the killing
frost. We have never looked for such
a demonstration of the old saw that
