During the last six years a
preparation called Halltina has
been sold by the Delta Chemical
Company, st. Louis, as a cure
for the morphin habit. Any
man, women or child who wrote
for it was sent sample of Habi-
tana containing eight grains of
morphin sulphate and four grains
of heroin hydrochlorid. Com
menting on this matter, The
Journal of the American Medical
Association said.
"There is not a reputable drug
store in the United States that
would dare to give layman eight
grains of morphln on no other
authority than his simple re-
quest. Yet the human vultures
that carry on this body and mind
destroying traffic in drug cures
are permitted under our present
laws-or lack of laws-to put in
to the hands of the ignorant or
the criminal, for the mere ask
ing, the most dangerous and
treacherous of poisons.
No longer does this criticism
apply. X. c. Prewitt, M. D.,
and Ryland c. Bruce, who con-
stitute the Delta Chemical Com
pany, we're on April 80, 1912,
each fined $4,000 and sentenced
to five years Imprisonment at

Penitentiary at Leavenworth,

of sending poison through the
mails and of using the mails for
fraudulent purposes. The pun.
ishment meted out to Bruce and
Prewitt was evidently well-de.

There is nothing good or glor-
ious which war has brought forth
in human nature which peace
may not produce more richly
and more permanently. When
we cease to think of peace as the
negative of war, and think of war
as the negative of peace, then
shall shine forth the higher sol
diership of the higher battles.
Then the first military spirit and
it's works shall seem to be but
crude struggles after, and re-
hearsals for, that higher fight,
the fight after the eternal facts
and their obedience. "The war
drum throbs no longer, and the
battle flags are furled." But it

Baby browns in Water Tank

Monday afternoon the one and
a half year old baby, Bessie,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin
]. Hudkins, who resides eleven
miles southwest of Liberal, was
drowned in the drinking tank for
stock near the farm house. The
little one had been playing at the
tank during the morning, and
had the tops Of onions blowing
water through them. The par
ents feared that the baby would
fall in the water, had taken it
away, but at the first opportun-
ity in the afternoon the child re-
turned the tank and later when
found, her body was floating on
the water, face down. Evident
ly the little one had suffecated.
The funeral was held yesterday
and interment made in the Tv-
rome cemetery. David Curtis of
Liberal was the funeral director.

$1O5,OOO for Kansas

Topeka, May II. Kansas
eventually is to have $105,000 of
the million dollar farm improve
ment fund announced by Sears,
Roebuck & Company in Chicago
yesterday. Each Kansas coun-
ty, it is planned, is to have 81 900
of the fund to pay the salaries of
the farm improvement demon
strators. Bert Ball, secretary
of the grain improvement COM
mittee of the Associated Com
mercial Clubs, which has charge
of the distribution of the fund,
has notified Kansas officials that
as much of the available money
as needed would be used in Kan
sas at once. r
The Kansas Agricultural Col
loge will select men to act as
farm improvement demonstrate
ors in the various counties of
Kansas. There are not enough
of them to put a man in each
county at present, and the avail
able men will go into the big
wheat and corn counties this
summer to show the farmers
how to increase the wheat and
corn yields. These are the crops
the grain com mittee is chiefly in
terested in now.
The agricultural college has
about fifty men available as farm
demonstrators this year. Leav-
enworth and Allen counties al
ready have established farm i'm
provement demonstrators and
these men are now at work.
"The farm demonstrators will
be paid partially from the fund
created by the grain committee
of the commercial clubs" said
H. ]. Waters, president of the
Kansas Agricultural College.
"Mr. Ball told me he had mil
lion dollars to do this farm dem
onstration work. The counties
will be expected to pay part of
the salaries of these men, furnish
them an office and supply them
with stationery. The men will
have to have horse and buggy
and an expense account.
eff the demonstrations can in
crease the wheat yield in Kansas
three bushels an acre and the
corn yield five bushels an acre
it will mean 20 million more
bushels of wheat and 80 to 40
million more bushels of corn
year in Kansas alone. You can
we'll understand what a tremen-
dous proposition it is. 1t is the
biggest farm improvement prop
osition in recent years.
The farm improvement dem
constructors are going directly
into each county, carry on ex-
periments of their own in Coop
Grafton with farmers and actual
ly go to the farms and show the
men who are tilling. the soil just
what to do toincrease the yields.

The procession was halted while
Gov. Wilson leaned over, took the
lads hand and said:
I'm mighty glad to see you, my
boy. How are you getting along?"
Fine, thank YOU" replied the
little shaver. "and It's all because
Miss Jessie helped me-"
Turning to the serious politi-
clans who were conveying him to

said:
II frequently meet boys and
women in New Jersey and eastern
Pennsylvania who stop me and
want to shake hands because I'm

in quest of waters which have the magic properties
of warding off old age.
But there is youth and youth. Nobody par
ticularly admires the youth that is callow, the
better things. But the youth that wins you and
me and all the world is the youth which is born
of and not spoiled by experience, and 1t comes
after maturity; it is youth which makes as GODS
knowing good and evil. Youth is not matter of
years nor lack of years, and, alas, it cannot be
obtained through the media of scented soaps, face
creams, gymnasiums, and beauty doctors-t is a
thing of the soul.
Youth is not Peter Pan-the boy that never
grows up-charming though he is; rather it is he
who, having grown up. retains the freshness and
wholesomeness OF the boy. Youth ia the character
istic of the man and woman who continue to think
the long. long thoughts" of fragrant glorious boy

We can all keep young-blissfully. perenially

line but nothing need destroy the freshness
of our outlook on life nor the sweetness of our
smile And never until the verge of eternity is be-
fore need the light die out of our eyes,

to be had save at great price,, We must rid our
selves of petty grudges, small prejudices little
vices borrowed worries, and untold woes It
means the ruthless and impartial slaughter of the

1t means confidence in our fellow men and fellow
women.

We all know few enviable and
