doing, and after she gets thru
telling you she'll turn around and
ask you where you were and what
kept you out SO late. And after.
you inform her she won't believe 1t.
sbutsyou must not mind. When you
get into bed she assures you that
she has not slept q wink all night,
yet she will 81 awake two hours
telling you things you don Z want to
hear. You wonder why she doesn't
go to sleep when sne has chance,

The great dangers that pupils run may be

through vanity or for other reasons re-

dwelt upon this question, saying:
II deeply deplore, in the name of

Here's n New One

According to the following story
which appeared in the Pueblo Chief
tain of yesterday a person might plant
honey dew seed and reap broom corn,
barley or most any old thing. The
story:
Frank Wilson, a farmer living in
the Vineland district, had peculiar
experience with seed he planted this
year from the new Honey Dew canta-
loupe. The new variety of cantaloupe
was propogated from winter casaba
and a Rocky Ford cantaloupe with
several other crosses mixed in. This
is the first year the melons have been
raised for commercial purposes and
not every time will the seed produce
the Honey Dew but will often go back
to either cantaloupe or casaba.
Wilson planted a few of the seeds
of the Honey Dew in his farm garden.
AS a result he harvested a dozen var
ieties of melons ranging from can
taloupe to casaba and some others
that he never saw before. OF course
the Honey Dew melon predominated
in the patch but because of the in
teresting experiment, Wilson brought
in seven varieties to be exhibited at
the state fair to show visitors what
was produced from the seed of one
Honey Dew melon.

DR.. HARVEY W. WILEY
TO VOTE FOR HUGHES.
He Says Wilson Has Failed to Enforce
Pure Food Law.

81 favor the election of Mr.. Hughes
to the Presidency for entirely differ
ent reasons than those held by most
of his supporters. 1t Is not because
of the Mexican policy nor the foreign
policy of the Administration nor by
reason of its domestic policies. 1t is
because of the apparent indifference
of the Administration of President
Wilson to the cause of pure food and
drugs. Practically all of the abuses
Which were injected into the Pure
Food Law by the preceding Admins
trations are still in force. Benzoate
of soda is still regnant. The fumes
of burning sulphur are marching along
undisturbed. There is evidently a lull
in the activities of the Administration
of the law. A well-known beverage. de-
clared by the Supreme Court misbrand-
ed and amenable to the Food Law has
not been molested. No attempt has been
made to enforce the law in regard to
the bleaching Of flour. The repeal of
the mixed flour law, that splendid
safeguard to the purity of our bread.
has been tacitly approved by the
Treasury Department.
"Mr. Hughes in his activities on
the Supreme Court has stood like
stone wall for the proper Administra-
ton of the Food Law. I believe his
election would see radical change
in the attitude Of the government
towards pure food and pure drugs, sc
vital to the welfare of our people.
For this reason, sincerely hope thai
Mr.. Hughes may be chosen as our
next President.
II should expect Mr.. Hughes as
President to have the same attitude
toward the pure food and drug law
that he had as Judge on the bench
and to appoint secretary Of agri-
culture with subordinate officers who
would be enthusiastic and earnest in
the enforcement Of the pure food law
for the benefit Of the physical, men,
tai and moral welfare Of our people,"

NO ONE WAS AFRAID OF
HAITI.

Haiti did not behave as badly
to us as Mexico behaved; but
Mr.. Wilson interviewed, fought
the Ilaitiens, shedding their
blood and the blood of our
troops, took possession and now
has our armed forces in control
of Haiti and directing its gov
ernment. His course of action
in Haiti can be defended only
If his course of action in MeXi-
co is unqualitiedly condemned;
for such action was far more
needed in Mexico than in Hal
ii. But there was a difference
in the two cases; and to Mr..
Wilson it was vital difference.
