GIRLS TOOK OATH.
Seven High School Lassies Swore
They Obeyed Rules.

Seven senior class high school girls
who desired to take a formal oath
that they are not members of any Sc
cret society, for the purpose of clear
ing up any doubts about their eligi-
bility to be graduated next June, sent
out how they might take a solemn
vow that the grim faculty members
will accept as proof of their sincerity.
The emisSary brought a male escort
with her. 1t looked so much like a
pair of juvenile clippers that there was
craning of neckS as the couple made
their way along the corridor, but they
ter and turned in at the office of Os
car Swayze, county clerk.
Yes" replied the genial county
clerk, Il guess I can fix you up. I
am vested with authority to acknowl-
edge an oath. Do you want to take
it now?''
There are seven of u.s." explained
the girl, through her escort, who act
ed as attorney Can we all take it
in one statement?''
There being no obstacle, it was ar
ranged that the entire seven who de-
the contraband social organizations
under the faculty ban, should come in
together and hold up their right
hands and take the pledge in unison
and the emissary and her Man Fri
day scampered joyfully away.
And the cupid clerk from Judge
MacFarland's office, who had tiptoed
in with a blank marriage license in
her hand, pouted with disappointment.
'fOh, fudge! I thought it was an
elopement that had gotten into the
wrong place. said she. I'VE haven't
had a wedding for two days and they
would have made such a cute couple,

Funston's Guns Stationed to Command
Villa Batteries.

Brownsville, April 16.-Outpost fir
ing and hand grenade throwing were
of frequent occurrence today about
the western Matamoros trenches. The
Villa army which had tried to sur
round the city now has concentrated
to the west but the Villa attack still is
delayed.
The Third United States field artil-
lery is stationed near the Fort Brown
parade ground, where it would be
within range of any field guns which
in firing on Matamoros, sent shells
into Brownsville.

Don't Hide Them With a Veil; Remove
Them With the Othinc Prescription

This prescription for the removal of
freckles was written by a prominent
physician and is usually so successful
in removing freckles and giving a
clear, beautiful complexion that it is
sold by druggists under guarantee to
refund the money if it fails.
Don't hide your freckles under a
veil; get an ounce of othine and re-
move them. Even the first few appli-
cations should show a wonderful i'm
provement, some of the lighter
freckles vanishing entirely.
Be sure to ask the druggist for the
double strength othine; it is this that
is sold on the money-back guarantee.

Taxpayer Failing to Do His Duty
Has No RIGHT 10 Kick

The taxpayer who declines to accept
his full share Of the responsibilities
fuses to accept any Office under the
city government-has no right to COM
plain because taxes are high.
Leavenworth taxpayers complain at
the mayor and council, for things done
and for things left undone, yet when
asked to become candidates for Office
on the municipal ticket themselves,
they decline to allow the use Of their
names. Some of them even decline to
vote and then kick like the devil at
what is done By those who might not
have been elected to Office but for
their own Indifference. The legislature
ought to pass law making it an ofense
for any voter to complain at what is
done By those in Office when he had
himself refused to accept Office or vote.
