Popes Never Preach.

OF all the many strange restrictions
which hedge about the Pope, one of
the strangest is that he should not be
allowed to preach. Only once in three
hundred years has a Pope delivered
a sermon, and that was in most eX-
ceptional circumstances.
On the Octave of the Epiphany, 1S46,
a celebrated preacher, Padre Ventura,
was to have occupied the pulpit in St.
Peters, but was suddenly taken i'll.
To prevent disappointment to the
vast crowd which had assembled, Plus
TX broke through the custom of ages,
ascended the pulpit and delivered a
simple, homely sermon which per-
haps impressed its hearers more than
the finest eloquence might have done,
because of its uniqueness.-Tit-Bits.

pected that the cotton growers OF the
south will adequately enrich their soil
That prices of commercial fertilizer
are almost prohibitve from a cotton
growing standpoint is evidenced by
the comparison which was recently
made by southern firm. They point
out that acid phosphate is now SIS a
ton as against "A normal price of $ll;
nitrate of potash Sal ton as against
$37: cotton seed meal $40 a ton as
against $25 and nitrate of soda $50 as
against SAC, and they further say that
they see no hope of these basic in
gradients being reduced in price in
time to help the next crop. War or
no war, the fact cannot be gainsaid
that another short crop on top Of this
seasons limited supply would bring
about conditions little short Of calami-
tous. There is nothing in the immedi-
ate situation on which to base the eX
pectation of any material price change,
but fundamental conditions are such

tuition. 1t is the policy of the board
of regents to provide the necessary
equipment for demonstration of the
best methods of farming, stock rails
ing, poultry, dairying, engineering
and other such departments as re-
late to the work of the college.
THE financial support which the
institution receives insures the fu-
ture strength and stability of the
school. Congressional enactments eX-
tending from 1862 to 1918 have grad
ually increased the revenues of the
college from the federal government
until those revenues represent much
more than many colleges received
for their entire support. The institu-
tion also has permanent funds pro-
vided in territorial days out of pub
lie lands, the income from which
adds largely to and revenues of the
college, thereby enabling the insUtu'
tion to feel a sense of relief from
the uncertainty that attaches to
schools which must have annual ap'
preparations for support.
The attendance of the college has
gradually grown to about 1,2O0 at
the present time-SOO boys and 400
girls. Almost every county in the
state sends one or more students each
year. The attendance at the institu-
tion is by no means local, as is some
times the case with state institutions.
There is, however, a manifest inter
est in the college in scattered locali-
ties. Some counties will show a large
each year. In such coun-
ties the institution seems to be well
known, and a sort of propaganda is
in those counties with the
students themselves"

GIRL OF 12 PLAYS MATADOR
Saves Life of Man in Fight With an
Enraued Bull

Brighton, H., Jan. 3.-How a 12-
year-old girl, riding a saddleless horse
and armed with pitchfork, played the
part of matador in a real bull fight,
overcame the enraged animal and
saved the life of man on a farm near
here last night, became known tonight.
The heroine was Ruth Deatherage,
The man whose life she saved was
Richard Lyons, a farm hand on the
Deatherage land. Lyons was attempt
ing to drive the bull into a barn, when
the animal became enraged and at
tackled him. Lyons was thrown to the
ground and the bull began to trample
and gore him.
Ruth and her mother, Mrs. w. A.

Deatherage, heard Lyons cries for
help. Throwing only bride on the
head of her favorite horse and grab
bing pitchfork, Ruth rushed to the
rescue. Two or three times she cir
cled around the bill, seeking advant-
age of position Then she rode directly
at his head and struck. Two of the
pitchfork tynes pierced the bulls nose.
He became a very much subdued ami
NAL, and the battle was over.

WHAT CAUSES COLDS?

This question is asked every day.
A cold is really fever, not always
caused by the weather but often due to
disordercd blood or lack of important
food-elements. In changing seasons
fat-foods are essential because they
distribute heat by enriching the blood
and SO render the system better
able to withstand the varying elements.
This is the important reason why
SCOTS Emulsion should always be
taken for colds, and it does more
builds strength to prevent sickness.
SCOTS Emulsion contains Natures
rare strength building fats, SO skillfully
blended that the blood profits from
every drop. 1t is free from harmful
drugs or alcohol. Sold at drug stores
always get the genuine.

waste time and suffer unnecessary

need. The pain goes at once.
