Heads-She Lost.

The room was full of little girls In
pink slips and pigtails. They sat in
rows at wooden desks, as quiet as
mice. Over them presided a sweet
faced damsel, stern withal. The lesson
concerned coins Of the realm, and they
had been through the entire range,
from pennies to silver dollars. One
little miss, however, was singularly In
attentive. Her gaze was fixed upon a
playful sparrow on the window-sill, and
she had no thought for coins. Sudden
ly the teacher p0unced upon her. Plac-
ing half-dollar on the pupils desk,
she demanded: whats that?''
Heads" came the instantaneous reply.

Knew the Game.

One Of Rob's pet rabbits had disap-
peared and having searched in vain for
the bunny, Rob appeared before his
little playmate suggesting that with
the assistance of Harold's bird dog
they might recover the pet. The play
mate, delighted that his dog might be
of service, rushed to his mother for
permission to accompany Rob and the
dog. "But where are you going to
look?" inquired the mother. ooh,
down the railroad" replied the small
son. 'But why must you follow the
railroad, Harold?" "Why, mother,
don't you know, the dog has to smell
the tracks," he replied in disgust.

Roger Williams.

Roger Williams was the founder of
the state of Rhode Island. He was
born in London in either 1904 or 1905.
He refused to join the congregation at
Boston because the people would not
make public declaration of their re-
pentance for having been in communion
with the Church of England. Banished
from the Massachusetts Bay colony in
1885, he escaped to the shores of Mar
ragansett bay, accompanied by few
of the adherents of the extreme puri-
tanism which he advocated; he pur-
chased land of the Indians and found

Celery Always Valuable.

The flavor of celery is one totally
distinct from any other plant, all of
Its own, and, above all, remarkably
delicious; whether mixed as a salad or
put in a puree, or added to other vege-
tables as soup, or as a sauce, 1t al
ways retains it's original and delicate
flavor, which blends as no other plant
Or flavoring vegetable will blend.
Celery, too, possesses remarkable medi-
cinal value. Celery soup, celery cream,
celery sauce, braised or stewed eel
cry, and, simple celery salad form the
more ordinary styles of preparing this
vegetable

Then rub briskly on wood or metal.

DYNAMITE OLD
WATER TOWER
ANCIENT TANK AT FORT BROWN is
WRECKED TODAY-FELL INTO
DsSUSE SEVERAL YEARS AGO.

Three blasts that shook the northeast
crn end Of the city Friday sent the tall
tower in Fort Brown topping 10 the
ground with the third shot al one o'clock
in the afternoon.
The familiar red water tower, shaped
like a gigantic kerosene can inverted on
ring supported by four spreadink legs,
Is no more the chief landmark Of Browns
vile. From north, south, east or west, as
one approached the city the first feature
"a hc distinguished was always the big
bulb of the red water tower hazy against
the far horizon Some clever woman in
the army post last year said she believed
the familiar spirit who guides Brownsville
lived mp in the empty, diSused water Tow
er and broodcd over the city from IL
far-up haven. If he did he has fallen,
and great was the fall thereof.
AT almost exactly one o'clock, after two
IF the legs OF the tower had been shot
away by dynamite blasts earlier in the
day, the third blast rang out, and with a
shuddcring. grating shrek of strained
metal the tower topplcd. Il fell toward
the west, as its wreckcrs wished 1t 10.
This afternoon the tank lies like fallen
Titan along the road that skirts the Ia
goon. As it lies on the ground it, size
can be appreciated better. Up nearly a
hundred and fifty feet in the air the tank
kaksds Lar smaller than u really =.
The water tower was built 10 supply
water under pressure to Fort Brown some
eighteen or twenty years ago. When the
city laid mains III the army post three
wears ago the tower was cmptcd and
never rcfilled. Since that time it had ~
riistcd and weakened under the strain of
the trade wind, that it had become
menace to safety, and Its razing became
imperative.
