lily. They must confine themselves to
one child. Well, they invariably bid

hundred of these offers to take In

for girls. What is the cause of this?
The cause must evidently be that
girls are better behaved, more amiable
and nicer all around than boys.

Ography, has taught me that female

PROGRESS IN KANSAS.

| PROGRESS IN KANSAS.
The geography of years ago, says
Gov. George H. Hodges, pictured Kan
sas as part of the Great American
| desert. Hardly a desert now, with
S4,O00,000 acres in cultivation. Very
| little indulgence in Kansas, with an
average of 1882 on deposit in our
banks for every person in the state.
Our citizens pay taxes on S1,765 each,
a little over 800 more than they paid
a year ago, even though this was
the worst drought season in our
history Our agriculturists use the
best for their own tables, and a
plentiful supply at that, but after
using all the butter, eggs and poultry
they needed, they sold $22,O0O,OOO
worth of butter, eggs and poultry last
year. Just a little revenue of $1,000
900 more than this government paid
for about a third of the total acre
age of these United States, the Louisi-
ana purchase. We own one automo-
bile for every as persons in Kansas,
but we hope to do a little better next
year, for our farmers are now stand
ing around waiting for the mayor and
county commissioners to sign mu-
nicipal Improvement bonds, and bonds
issued for the building of permanent
highways that they are endeavoring
to buy at about ten per cent above
par. A great many of our farmers are
complaining because they can't pay
off their mortgage until it becomes
due, though they have decreased their
recorded Indebtedness from So per
cent to 45 per cent in the past 10
years. At the same time they have
boosted the home-owned securities
from $13,OOO,OOO to $67,OOO,OO0.
Every year our state creates a new
wealth; last year a wealth of $4,000
900 a day was the record. We spent
$13,500, 900 last year to run $4,000
schools; that kept $4,000 teachers
busy for about nine months The
salaries of the men teachers in our
public schools have increased from
$44 to 5000 a month in the past ten
years, while the salary of the women
teachers has doubled. All of the weak
school districts have state aid, and we
have no schools which have less than
seyen-month term. We have an en-
dowment fund for the common
schools of $9,25O,OOO. With a popula
ton of 100000 we had an enroll
ment of $500 students in our state
iIniversitieS and T 500 in oi1r danOmi-
national schools. Six thousand stu
dents attended our state university
and agricultural college last year.
This is a remarkable showing when
compared with Missouri, which has
3,5O0,000 population and only 1917
students in her university and agri-
cultural college. Indiana, with about
the same population, has 1861 stu
dents in her combined schools.

DOCTORS AGAINST ALCOHOL

At the annual meeting of the Amer
lean Osteopathic association, held at
Philadelphia, the following anti-alco-
hol resolution was passed.
In view of the undoubted and ter
ribly destructive effects of alcohol
and the very doubtful and slight ad-
vantage to be obtained from its use,
we hereby unequivocally and uncon-
ditionally condemn it's use and place
ourselves upon record as pronouncing
it one of the greatest curses of the
age, detriment to human well-being
and disgrace to our civilization"
DR.. S. P. Ross, who offered the reso-
luton, said he considered its adoption
to be one of the most advanced steps
the Osteopathic association has ever
taken. I'VE are now definitely lined
up" he said, with the forces of mod
ernity and progress and against the
source of graft and vice."

BAN JOHNSON sCoRNS PEACE
viii Be Fight to Finish Now
Denies Owners Met.

Organized baseball has to put the
bee on all reports from Pittsburgh in
dicating that steps would be taken in
the near future to establish peaceful
relations with the Federals. Ban
Johnson, boss of the American league
and member of the national commits
sion, knocked the props out from I'M
der the yarn Immediately upon his re-
turn from hunting trip in northern
Michigan.
There's not a word Of truth in the
story which originated in Pittsburgh
to the effect that club owners of the
American league have been negotiat-
ing with the Federals," said President
Johnson. THE story that Messrs. Gaff-
ney, Lannin, Somers and Baker were
in conference with Gilmore in New
York several days ago is tommy-rot.
II know, however, that President
Weeghman of the Chicago Federals
while in the East asked to be intro
duced to President Bannin of the Bos-
ton Red Sox, who is proprietor of the
Garden City hotel; and the pair met
there, but only for friendly chat. u
There can be no peaceful adjust
ment of this problem" continued the
American league mogul. when the
American league invaded the game the

ton of a compromise in this case
never has been considered by our club
owners.
eve have signed our players for the
future; they are satisfied with their
lots, and will be wearing American
league uniforms next year. The same
course has been pursued by the club
owners of the National league,
Il don't know what the authors of
these fake stories hope to gain by cir
culating such reports" concluded
Johnson. Whoever is sending out the
dispatches is a prolific dreamer"

COURT TEMPERANCE LECTURE.

People do not have to attend church
nowadays in order to hear temperance
sermons. 1t is becoming popular for
the judge from the bench to deliver
discourses upon the evils of the drink
habit. Justice Otto Won Deter, of
Stockton, Cal very recently spoke
pointedly to the dozen men and one
woman who appeared before him
pleading guilty to intoxication. THE
saloons" said the judge, turn drunk,
ards out into the streets faster than
we can handle them in court. The
people and the government license
the saloons that put you in the gut
ters The hard working man, paying
off a heavy mortgage on his little
home, must pay taxes to keep you
drunkards in the hospital and care
for you"

A TREATMENT THAT HEALS
ITCHING, BURNING SKINS

Don't stand that itching skin humor
one day longer. Go to the nearest
druggist and get a jar of resinol ONT
ment (50c) and cake Of resinol soap
(25c). Battle the eczema patches with
resinol soap and hot water dry and
apply little reslnol ointment.
It's almost too good to be true. The
torturing, itching and burning stop in
stantly, you no longer have to dig and
scratch, sleep becomes possible, and
healing begins. Soon the ugly, tor
turing eruptions disappear completely
and for good.--Adv.
