We do not know whether the great
office of Governor of Texas has been
cheapened, or whether the number of
men eligible to fill the office has in
creased. 1t certainly looks like a joke,
however, to see fifteen or twenty men
running for Governor.

The city Of Chicago, in granting the
franchise Of the Illinois Tunnel Co.,
provided for the future by stipulating
that II the company consolidated with
the old phone company Its rights and
franchise would be forfeited to the

Now some Of the aldermen want to

the city's rights and make the trust
supreme. And these are the fellows
who kick against state utility regu-

This is Guaranteed fc Jt0P Your Cough Make this Family Supply of Cough Syrup at Home
 and Save $2s

This plan makes a pint of better cough syrup than you could buy ready made for $2.50. A few doses usually conquer an ordinary cough-relieves even whooping cough quickly. Simple as it is, no better remedy can be had at any price.
 Mix one pint of granu1ated sugar with 42. pint of warm water, and stir for 2 cents, worth in pint bottle; then add the Sugar Syrup. It has pleasant taste and lasts family a long time. Take a teaspoonful every one, two or Shree hours.
 You can feel this take hold of a cough in way that means business. Has 8 good tonic effect, braces up the appetite, and is slightly laxative, toa, which is helpful. A handy remedy for hoarse- ness, spasmodic croup, bronchitis, bfon- chia1 asthma and whooping cough.
 The effect of pine on the membranes is well known. PineX is most valu- able concentrated compound of Nerwe- gian white pine extract and is rich in guaiacol and other natural healing pine elements. Other preparations will not work in this combination.
 This Pinex and Sugar Syrup remedy has often been initiated, though never successfully. It is now used in more homes than any other cough remedy,
 A guaranty of absolute satisfaction. or money promptly refunded, goes with this preparation. Your druggist has Pinex, or will get it for you. If not, send to The Pinex Co.,, Ft. Wayne. Ind.

cHINA.s PRESIDENT.

With the selection of Yuan Shi -Kai as the president of the new republic of China for a period of five years. this important country of the far east en- ters upon another period of great op portunities under the direction of the man who has served as provisional executive and is regarded as one of China's greatest men. He has long been connected with the affairs of his country even to being delegated to have charge of the change from the old form of government to the new republic Not of the class which has had the advantage of American or European education, but a practical man of modern ideas. he stands on a middle ground which is likely to ac- complish steadier and frmer gov ernment than would result under the efforts of the radical leaders to over turn at once a nation which has shown only the slowest development in many centuries
 The selection of a president places the republic onl still stronger basis. It is now in exposition to receive the support which recognition by other countries bring. It has experienced not a few of the difficulties which face a new republic but there is great amount of work which remains to be done. which YuantShi-Kai is well quail flied to undertake and accomplish. It is the problem of development in all directions which is faced, the solution of which gives the newly chosen presi- dent a task which must necessarily be slow to be sure.

RULES MUST SERVE PURPOSE.

Efforts which promise to have good results are being made for the purpose of overcoming the strained relations between the New Haven road and it's engineers existing because of the atti- tude of the employees to strike as a l2st resort if changes in the new rules can not be obtained otherwise. The new rules lave been put into force solely on the grounds of securing grea ter safety in operation. They have been drawn in accordance with the demands of the interstate commerce commis- sion's and the public utilities commis- sfon's recommendations and with the intention of having them enforced for the insurance of greater safety to the public. The engineers oppose the reg uIations which apply to the matter of promotions feeling that discrimination would not be fairly used when 1t came to filling vacancies. The new rules are much different than the old based on The position maintained by the railroa d that If they must bear the responsi- bi1ity, as they must, the control right ly belongs with them
 What will be the result of the con ference is uncertain. but it should be realized by the engineers as well as the road officials that changes which are going to weaken the securing of greater safety should not be made. If notifications can be made concerning fromotions, which will not impair the aim of the rules, a compromise would be justifiab bic, but it must not be over looked that both parties to this affair are answerabIe to the public and must do their part in overcoming disastrous railroad wrecks

ceNseLieArEp scHeeLs.

The establishment of consolidated ar centralized schools, the value of which has been widely recognized and the idea put into extensive use, Is strongly advocated by the United States bureau of education when 1t recommends such course where 1t can be done without too great ex- pense and without breaking up or dis lntegrating existing communities. A survey has been made of Montgem- cry county, Maryland in the hope that by close view of one rural district that other rural communities may be encouraged to investigate their school systems and make them more efficient. The conditions found were typical of what is still found in country districts everywhere and the efforts have been directed towards showing that the de- fects such as poor teaching, low sal- aries, lack of thoroughness in the com mon branches and few special subjects, are inherent in a system of one room country schools and that the way to remedy the situation is to have fewer and better schools, with transportation furnished to pupils living at a distance.
 The one room country school where necessary must by no means be neg lected It must receive the best at tention possible in the way of teach CTS and supervision, and 1t is doing so. but such is necessarily limited. Side by side with the effort to make the one room school as efficient as possible has gone the movement for consolidation and the existence of sew eral thousand consolidated schools in the country today tells of the demands for the best in education and appre- citation of results.

 This comparison amused Dorothy, and she began to wonder how Tom would look.
 i've invited him to breakfast with us tomorrow, so we will have an op- portunity to see how his hair becomes him.
 Dorothy did not face the next morn ing in a spirit of buoyancy. She came into the dining room IiStlessIy and with 8 feeling that her life was a des- olate waste,
 Her father and mother were already at the table, and Tom soon entered. looking sheepish and conscious. An un- willing smile of amusement was fore ed back by Dorothy as she looked at his hair and expression. It was in congruous, but she was not going to admit it.
 Her words were few, her voice sad, her manner martyred throughout the meal. When, later, Tom came to take her. for a drive she was patiently and evening she was again on schedule time.
 Three days of methodfcal life drag ged on, and then Tom felt that he could not longer endure the new life and the surprised glances at his head.
 Dorothy" he said, irnpetuously. you seem unhappy Will you tell me why Is it coming to breakfast?"
 No, Ton," she replied with a little laugh that was more like a sob T think it's your hair. I can't bear to look at you,' and she burst into tear fuI laughter

To come in from the ctl. where all the people were on a mad rush for trains and see your de- Hcious oblivion to the 12 figures on a timepiece was most restful."
 Then shall we go back to our old life 2" she cried joyfully.
