"Thou are like unto flower" war
bles the German poet to bis love. A
certain exasperated old German florist
and nurseryman who iourlshed half
century ago In New York was accus-
toned to assert with equal positive
ness that a flower Is like woman. He
had many women customers whose
trade he appreciated. but whose de-
mands often drove him TO ruinple his
outstanding Teutonic brush of hair I'M
til he looked like an angry parrot. He
finally unbosomed himself TO the hus-
band Of one of them. whose diary has
preserved his words:
81 have so much trouble with the
ladies' when they cooms in TO buy mine
rose. They wants him hardy, they
wants him double, they wants him
mundtly, they wants him fragrand'
they wants him nice COLOR, they wants

German Courtship.

The form in which proposal OF mar
rage is made has undergone great
change In Germany during the past
few years. At one time any young
man who proposed marriage attired
himself In his dress suit and carried
bouquet as an offering to bis chosen
one. We must not seek to pry into the
intimacy of such proposals, but II the
disconsolate lover left the house carry
ing bis bouquet with him II was a sure
sign that he was rejected. Nowadays
proposals are less formal. but engage
ments are no less binding. In fact, a
betrothal Is regarded as almost as SOL
emn and binding as the wedding itself.
On every possible occasion German
lovers appear arm in arm, and the Gus
tom is not confined to one class alone.
Peasants walk thus, and princes ana

A. & M. COMPANY FOOTBALL
TO HAVE HEAVY SCHEDULES

Plans for heavy schedule for the
company football league at the Texas
A. and NJ. College are under way. The
first meeting of the company captains
was held this week when committees
were appointed to arrange schedule
for the season 1918.
Rivalry between the various COM
panies at the College runs high in ath-
letics as well as in military prowess
and the battle for company champion
ship in football, baseball, and other
athletic contests is hot every year.

Horrible DueIinq.

A particularly terrible kind OF duel
was fought on one occasion In Mexico.
The opponents were an Indian settler
and rich cattle owner. The weapons
chosen were butchers knives, and IL
was settled that each combatant was
to hold out his hand In turn to have
one OF his fingers cut of. The hrst
to show the least sign Of suffering pain
was to have a bullet put through his
heart by the other The Indian had
the first cut and amputated the cattle
owners first finger at single blow.
The Indians first injury was the loss
OF a thumb. and he likewise remained
as impasslve as marble. This horri-
BILE drama went on until each com
blatant had lost four digits. Then the
cattleman's second became so fright
ened at the CHASTITY sight that he shot
the Indian dead and ended the fight.

To the Public:

To the Public:
Acting Gov. win II. Mayes has set
'Thursday, October .. by special proc

taken by the citizenship for inspec-

being set up. aud starting Of fires COM

that the fire department is kept bus

that ere caused by flue fires. All
sorts Of trash from snarrows' nests

lects 10 the chlmnevs through the
summer. and when a fire is started.
this material OF the most infldmmable
sort easily igni;es. A little care in
having fues cleaned would save ire
, mendous amount OF trouble and no
small amount of expense.
The cleaning up Of back and front
yards and the disposition of numerous
trash piles in and around promises
and stores would also be good form
OF celebrating fire prevention day. 1t
would only require one days work in
most cases to put the average homo
and store in clean and sanitary condi-
ton so that there would be little dan
ger from fire upon arrival Of cooler
weather.
. We earnestly request the citizenship
OF Bryan to give us their support in
this measure.

Thorp's Corpse.

Testators' requests often lead to
strange results. A scotchman. Thomas
Thorp left all his worldly goods to his
two nephews on condition that they
erected monument to his memory
With at least one verse inscribed there
on. These careful brothers searched
long and ardently for a verse at once
brief and apt, but they found that the
poets were inclined to run to words.
They asked the aid Of the monument
mason, who suggested that the follow
ing couplet would admirably meet the
case:

cry one, the verse found upon the

THE GREAT WESTERN
ROAD OF CHINA

Farther northwest from Taiyuanfu
to Sianfu, in Shensi, and thence to
Chengtu in the province of Szehwan,
runs the Great western road, loo
miles long, built centuries ago, that
the provinces might bring in their
tribute to the Manchu conqueror. Over
it throng myriads of clumsy two
wheeled carts drawn by from six to
eight horses or mules, carrying per-
haps a ton or so of cargo, and among
them crowds of coolies with back
loads of from $50 to 200 pounds, which
they viii transport fifteen miles a day,
and sometimes carry from 500 TO 1000
miles. To feed these and millions of
foot travellers, thousands Of eating
stalls line the road, serving steamed
wheat rolls, noodle soup, dough strips,
doughnuts fried in vegetable oil, pea
jelly, pea and bean soups and wheat
porridge. No Intoxicating liquors are
sold, and even TEA costs too much for
common use, but a kind of postum
Cereal'' made of wheat, peas or mil
Jet. and certain herb teas may be had.
The vegetarian enthusiast would
come into his own in Shensi, where a
cent buys a large oowl Of noodle soup
or porridge, with a big steamed wheat
roll and a sugared doughuut.-Frank-
lin Dent, in National Magazine.

FRA|L, SICKLY CHILD
Restored to Health by Vinol-
Letter to Mothers.

Anxious mothers often wonder why
their children are so pale, thin and
and have SO little appetite.
For the benefit of such mothers in
this vicinity We publish the following
letter.
J. Edmund Miller, New Haven,
Conn, says: MY little daughter, ever
since her birth, had been frail and
sickly, and was a constant source OF
worriment. Several months ago we
commenced to give her Vinol. | I'M
mediately noted an Improvement in
her health and appearance. | gave
her three bottles of Yinol, and from
the good it has done her | can truly
say it will do all you claim"
This child's recovery was due to
the combined action of the medicinal
elements extracted from Gods livers,
combined with the blood-making
and strengthening properties Of
tonic iron. which are contained In
Vinol.
Vinol viii build up and strengthen
delicate children, old people and the
weak, rundown and d~ebilitated. We
return the money in every case where
1t fails.
