Worms i'm Children.
By ON. Ja.Ae

If mothers only knew the tortures the
little ones may suffer from worms!
Thousands of children have stomach
worms or pin worms and their parents do
not know it. They doctor them for other
ailments.
Signs of worms are:
Indigestion, with a variable appetite /,
abnormal craving for sweets; nausea and
vomiting; swollen upper lip; sour tongue;
offensive breath; hard and full belly with
occasional gripings and pains about the
navel; face at one time flushed, then pale
and in few cases the face takes on dull
leaden hue. Eyes heavy and dull, twiich-
ing eyelids; itching of the nose; itching OF
the rectum; short, dry cough; grinding of
the teeth; little red points sticking out on
tongue; starting during sleep; slow fever;
pulse quickened and irregular; body maybe
hot; and often, in children, commissions.
Don't delay Delays are dangerous.
Give the children at once some of DR..
True's Elixir. Directions on the bottle.
Sold by all dealers a. 35c, SOC and Sl.00.
Thousands of grateful mothers have given
my DR.. True's Elixir to sick children and

NEW MEXICO COAL OUTPUT.
Production in 1912 Increases Half Mil
lion Dollars and Breaks the
Previous Record.

New Mexico is now accounted one OF
the important coal-producing states OF
the West, much Of her output being dis
tinctly of high grade In the Ration
| field, which furnished about Is per cent
of the production in 1912, the coal is
a true coking coal and most OF the OPP
erations are conducted on an extensive
scale. In 1912 there were II mines that
produced each over 100000 tons, and two
of these produced over 100000 tons.
Nearly $4,000 tons of coal was made
into coke
In point of area the San Juan river
field, in the northwestern part of the
state, is the most important It has
in New Mexico an area Of about 10000
square miles and contains both sub.
bituminous and bituminous coal In Me-
kinley county in the San Juan river
field, three mines produced over 100000
tons each, and one of them over 100000
tons.
The Los Cerrilos field and the White
Oaks field are relatively small in area
but contain true bitumnous coal. In the
former some Of the coal has been locally
altered into anthracite. of which 32,4ll
tons was mined in 1912.
The output of coal in New Mexico in
1912 was the largest ever made, the pro-
duction increasing from BIAS short tons
in 1911, valued at S4,525 ,925, to 3,536,S24
tons in 1912 valued at Sa.037 ,O5l,
gain of 1913 per cent. in quantity and
of ll.3 per cent. in value.
The first record Of coal production ia
New Mexico was published in 1882, when
the production amounted to l57 ,092 tons,
about 4 per cent. of the annual output
at the present time.

A CAMPAIGN OF ODDITIES.
When the Log Cabin and Hard Cider
Enthusiasts Rejoiced.

Il
Political enthusiasm has taken many
forms during the lifetime OF this ma
ton. The Harrison-Van Buren, presi-
Dental campaign Of 1910 was in some
respects the most remarkable the coun-
try has ever seen. From May till No
vember," says one historian, lit seemed
as IL all ablebodied citizens simply
went about in professions to attend
mass meetings"
The great oddly of the campaign
was the log cabin, the coon and the CT
der barrel. The log cabin idea origi-
mated with an opposition paper which
had said slightingly that William
Henry Harrison better go back to In
diana and stay there in his log cabin
drinking hard cider"
The taunt was taken up by Harri-
sons followers. Log cabins sprang up
all over the Union. In every town
there was house warming. and the log
cabin was thrown open to the public
amid general rejoicing on the roof

cider stood before the door. where any
one who desired might drink all he
chose

COKE BREAKS RECORD.
Production in 1912 Greatest in History
of Industry.

The coke industry in the United
States has now reached, in good years,
the $i00000000 mark, and moreover
there is steadily growing increase n
the proportion OF coke made in by
product and retort ovens whereby the
valuable by-products of gas, tar, ammo
MIA, etc, are saved to the value of tens
of millions of dollars annually. Where
the coke is made in the old-fashioned
beehive coke ovens all these valuable
by-products are entirely wasted.
In 1912 the total production of coke,
according to Edward w. Parker, OF the
United States geological survey, was
43,9l6,S34 short tons, valued at SILL
523 1886, an increase of 1886 ,345 tons IN
quantity and of S27 1892 ,4S7 in value
over 1911. In 1912 the production Of
beehive coke increased 5,164,701 tons, or
IS per cent, while that of the retort
coke increased 3I20O,644 tons, Tor 40
per cent. Although larger than in 1911
the output of beehive coke in 1912 did
not reach the record figures for 1910,
whereas the production OF by product
coke in 1912 was by far the largest vet
reached in any one year.

NEW BOOK ON VERMONT
Issued by the Vermont Publicity Bureau
Recently.


vermont the Land of Green Noun,
tsins," book of POS pages, has jus.
been issued by the Vermont Publicity
bureau from the press of the Vermont
Printing company. 1t is printed on
high grade paper. and upon the en-
bossed cover is the state seal. There
are many illustrations of beautiful
Vermont scenery pieturing the attrac-
tions of every county in the state. The
first edition consists of 10000 copies.
The purpose of this book first of all,
is to attract tourists to Vermont and
having brought them here to furnish in
a condensed form such information as
visitors might be expected to desire. The
introduction or foreword sets forth in a
general way the attractions of Vermont
as a tourist resort. Special emphasis is
laid upon the Green mountains. The
great asset OF New Hampshire as 4
tourist state has been the White noun
tains, but the Green mountains domi-
nate the state of Vermont to a far
greater extent than the White noun
tains dominate New Hampshire. There
is a charm in the name Green noun
tains. Business men realize the value
of an appropriate name for the prod
ucts they have to sell The name Green
mountains ought to be worth a great
deal to Vermont in the contest for the
summer tourist business.
A brief sketch has been printed Of
each town in the state, the towns being
arranged by counties. The plan has been
to give a few facts of general historic
something of the scenic attrac-
tions, a mention of the fish caught in
the waters of the town as indicated by
the report of the state fish and game
and an allusion to any
natives OF the town who have gained
national reputation.
