THE ONE WHO MIGHT FAIL

In a club the other night the con-
versation drifted into musical chan
nels when an appropriate story was
recalled by Senator Miles PoindeXter
of Washington.
Recently man who was prone to
toot the cornet day and night began
to have a few conscientious pangs
about playing the thing on Sunday,
and decided to consult his pastor
"Parson." said he, meeting the
good man in the street one afternoon,
"do you think there is any harm in
the cornet'
'T can't exactly say" returned the
parson wonderingly, 1T altogether
depends"
DO you think, for instance" per-
sisted the musician. that il man
played a cornet on the Sabbath he
would go to heaven"
u don't really see why he
shouldn't" smilingly replied the
domino, "but / doubt if his next door
neighbor would. d."-Philadelphia Tel

VOLCANO WAS ONCE
ACTIVE IN TEXAS
Says Geologist; Data on
South's Greatest Phe-
nomenon, Vitalitas.

One Of the most interesting sub
iects OF scientific research that
biologists have ever had to work upon
in Texas is the Nitalitas deposit found
upon a small tract of rugged ground.
SO far as known such a phenomenon
does not exist elsewhere on earth.
This is the report one scientist has
made regarding the deposit
'Vitalitas is the remains Of a GER
tain mOulton lava or cOnglomerated
mass that was melted in the bowels
Of the earth by the terrific internal
fires. il was spouted UP through
seams and crevices Of rocks and
poured from the crater Of an active
volcano that existed millions Of years
ago. This was gradually sOlidifled
and the result is the peculiar sub
stance called Nitalitas"
SO much is theory. But there is no
theOrizinR regarding the energized
liquid that is extracted from this
volcanic lava 1t is rich in a remark
able combination of mineral chemicals
and forces Of nature. No one OF the
earth's natural mineral waters can
compare with II, in tonic and correc-
tive effects. A display Of Vitalitas is
soon to be made in this city and the
place OF holding II will be announced
in the next few observation-disclosures.
