THE MOSQUITO NOT A JOKE.

The mosquito is not to be consid- cred lightly. He is not joke. He is more than painful nuisance--he is positive menace to life and health. The seemingly harmless mosquito that hites you tonight may instil into your veins the. germs of some loath- some and deadly disease. For aught you know, he may have just come from some pest house.
 Rexall Skeeter Skoot has our posi- tive guarantee to protect you from mosquito bites-or your money back. While easy and pleasant to use, yet it is regarded with great aversion by mosquitos and insects. and they will not come near any person using it. Prices, 10, 25 and 30 cents Sold in this community only at R. G. Morris Drug Co. SOP Central Ave, phone 242, The Public Drug O., Cor. Ouachita Ave. and Market, phone 645, The Rex all Stores.

Girls Stunned by Men.

There are many such, and for the
most part the fault lies with them
selves.
The girl who never even exerts her
self to be agreeable unless she can
have everything her own way is one Of
them. for there is not man alive who
will give way in everything to a girl.
The girl who scolds is another type.
She may be perfectly good tempered,
but she has contracted the ScOlding
ha Bit. and so she is left alone to scold
at her pleasure.
Then there is the girl with the haugh-
ty manner and cold stare. No man
dares to make love to her. because
there is nothing whatever to love in
her
SO the girl scowls at what she consid-
ers his bad taste, utterly ignoring the
fact that her own foolish conduct is
the sole cause of his neglect.
Another girl without a lover is the
painfully shy maiden. She likes to see
men at a distance, but the moment
they draw near she drives them back
with her embarrassment. They retire
simply out of pity, seeing her distress
and awkward bashfulness.
Last on the list comes the girl who
always has something to say about
every one she sees. ridiculing people in
order to be considered clever. little
knowing how men intensely dislike to
hear her pulling everybody's character

The All Day Bag.

Even though you never would dream
of carrying a hand bag in America,
you must take one with you to Europe,
where they are considerably more ex-
pensive to buy than at home and where
you will need one every time that you
start for single days excursion"
warned an experienced tourist while
advising a friend about to depart for
her first trip across the Atlantic. This
all day bag need not be weighty. but
it must be sufficiently capacious to
hold extra gloves and a handkerchief,
a very slender folding comb and tooth
brush, tiny cake of soap, hand towel.
self feeding powder puff, rubber san
dals. hand mirror, chiffon veil of good
size, fountain pen, notebook, needle
case and a tiny flask of brandy. With
that sort of equipment a woman can
keep herself looking tidy for number
of hours, and she is prepared for al
most any emergency likely to arise"

Bill Nve's Disappointment.

Representative Nye came to the
brea kfast table at his hotel one morn
ing. chnckling to himself, and he ex.
planned that he had just thought of a
boyhood incident for the first time in
many years. 1t was when the Nye
family,were living on farm in Wis
consin. He went to the pump one noon
to wash his face after toiling in the
fields all morning and was met by
Bill Nye. his elder brother. who had
been at work in another part of the
farm. Bill looked at him as If he
were a stranger and asked seriously,

lated. Ever have any brothers?"

DYNAMITE and Tree PLANTING.

Possibly what at first sight appears
to be the strangest applica ton of dyna-
mite is for the purpose of planting
trees. Yet it's success in this connec-
ton is said to be peculiarly remarka
Bile. When a hole is made with a
spade the surrounding soil is left in
its hard condition. The result Is that
the roots find it difficult to start. They
are cramped in the tight quarters of
the hole and cannot pierce the sur.
rounding hard wall OF earth. With
dynamite a large clean hole is blasted
out. and, in addition. the soil on all
sides Is loosened for FIVE or six feet.
When the tree is planted the young
and tender roots force their way with
out effort through the crevices. suck
ing up nourishment, and commence 70
grow from the moment they are set
without any retardation whatever.

Well. it had been noticed that the
innkeeper's wife had got the prize
pretty frequently. but nothing was

was her mothers turn. and she did not
draw forth her mothers disk in her

Cats as Food In China,

One often sums up the value Of cheap
fur by describing it as having been OBJ
tanned from the domestic cat. but in
China garments of catskin rank as high
and are as precious as garments of 81
BILE in this country. In the Flowery
Land cats flesh is also much eaten
and is especially recommended as a
cure for consumption and all lung dis
eases. 1t is vastly superior to cod liver
oil. and therefore cats are considered
extremely valuable possessions Black
cats provide the best meat. and in a
great many parts of China this food is
SO highly esteemed that cats are reared

was once on a trip with a party of
friends in private car. While in Den

Williams long story of his domestic
unhappiness. The next morning, when
sober, he mentioned the fact that he
had talked too much the night before
and requested that anything he might
have said would not be repeated. Mr..
Williams. In order to relieve the mans
embarrassment. said: That's all right

That night the man returned in the

listen to ,me last night. so I'm going to

steal paddy (unhusked rice)-the idea
had doubtless been impressed upon
them by punishment for stealing-they
would not touch it themselves. but If
q boy went to see them he would be
seized by one, the little trunk would
be coiled around his arm, and he would
be led to where the paddy was kept in
bags. ..> s..~.-.
The elephant would make cats paw

turn up the end of his trunk. open it
and coaxingly invite the boy to drop in
the paddy.
Should the boy, however. put 1t back

seized by the trunk, and his hand
would be again inserted into the paddy
bag.
The boy. anxious to be released.
would usually drop the paddy into the
trunk. and the elephant would blow
the rice into his mouth After repeat
Ing the operation several times the
elephant would seamper off. feeling
that he had got the paddy without
stealing it.-Harper's-

whether DR.. Zimmerman will become a

he holds the office of police Judge in

However, the judgship of the city

The question now is whether. in
case he should resign as police Judge,
he could become a candidate for con.
