When Dog Sought His Master.

There is a story in the American
Magazine in which a writer says:
"He had come many miles. He had
many miles yet to go. From sleeping
farmhOuses dogs bayed him as he
passed, running like big fox, silent
and swift. The road turned and twist
ed among the hills and small noun
tains. Ahead in the sky was a glow
of coming day. 1t grew brighter with
the passing miles. 1t drew him on.
The distance would have meant little
to him, except for the tremendous
speed at which he had been travelling.
Now his chest was flecked with foam.
His tail, carried usually so proudly,
followed the curve of his launches.
His overstralned muscles worked me-
chanically like pistons. His heart
pounded his long, lean, red ribs.
''Dizzy, almost famished, he came
at last to the top Of a hill, and stop
ped, ears erect. Below him stretched
rows Of twinkling lights that, all to-
gether, made up the glow in the sky.
That was the city with the strange
building into which they had carried

Texas is now enjoying it's first
dose of women in politics and
the fur is flying in all directions.
One dear woman, is so elated
over her first chance to help her
sex purify Texas politics
that she lets the cat out in a
letter to a friend by telling that
after this campaign is over she
will be able to take George and
spend the rest of the summer at
Atlantic City, N. j., where she
has already engaged hotel ac-
commodations at $40 per day. "
That's mighty fine and shows
that the dear woman isn't work
ing just for glory like many
man does. She is picking

the kaiser being very jealous of

SUMMARY ACTION TAKEN TO
STOP SUGAR LEAKAGE ACROSS
LINE TO MEXICO

Acting under instructions from the
federal food administrator for Ari-
zona, county food administrators and
their deputies located on the Mexican
border are taking steps to prevent
the expectation of sugar into Mexico.
Heretofore customs officials have
allowed the expectation of sugar in
five pound lots. The United States
Food Administration has now abro-
gated this rule by directing the fed
eral food administrator for Arizona to
prevent this practice.
Large quantities of sugar are said
to have been purchased at 10 cents
pound on American soil to be carried
across the border and disposed of at
from II to 25 cents a pound.

KEEPS VITAL POINTS SAFE
Medical Explanation of Work Per
formed by Fluid Which 5athes
Brain and Spinal Cord.

Until very recently the exact role
played by the cerebro-spinal fluid
that watery substance which bathes
the brain and spinal cord-was no.
understood. But nowadays it is q
common practice among surgeons to
squirt drugs into the tissues conto'h
ing this fluid or to draw out drop or
two of it for examination.
The Journal of the American Medi
cal Association, commenting on an ad
dress by DR.. w. y, Halliburton be-
fore the Royal Society of Medicine,
says he describes the cerebrO-spinal
fluid as an ideal physiOlogfc solution
in which the exquisitely sensitive nerv-
Gus system is always bathed.
This fluid does not, like the lymph,
arise from the blood by exudation of
serum through the walls Of the capil-
laries, but is the product Of the Sc
creting cells of what are called the
choroid plexuses In the ventricles of
the brain. The pressure under which
the fluid always exists is due to the
secretOry pressure Of these cells and
not to the blood. And there are
scarcely any prOteins found in 1t.
Halliburton says that in order to keep
out the harmful prOteins, which would
poison the nerves, the harmless ones
also are almost completely excluded.
The membranes that line the spaces
In which the fluid is found seem to
permit substances 20 pass from it to
the blood, but to be impermeable lex

the blood to the fluid. The value of
this arrangement is that when poi
sons enter the blood, as they do so
easily, they are kept away from the
delicate nerves.

From dear old Ireland there
comes a call for our Teddy.
Ireland is in a furious state.
Something must be done to save
her. Some of Ireland's leaders
have appealed to Col. Theodore
Roosevelt to come over and help
save Ireland. If Roosevelt must
get permission from Secretary
Baker for such a mission he will
not go. The Democratic hosts
are determined to keep Roose-
velt at home. Roosevelt's four
sons are distinguishing them
selves right up front, and the
Colonel's only regret is that he
hasn't four more "chips off the
old block" When some hide
bound ignoramus makes the
statement that Roosevelt is pro-
German we have only to answer
that the worlds stock Of idiots

OWN YOUR
HOME

Mrs. Annie Nelson of Tay-
lor deserves special mention
for her efforts and success in
saving which has enabled
her to own a home. Mrs.
Nelson is a careful, method
ical, systematic saver and by
placing her savings on depos-
it in this Bank enabled her
to further accumulate on her
earnings. We mention this
one instance because it is a
home affair, not a news story
from a foreign land. We
also mention this because we
want to impress upon our
people the important matter
of forming the habit of saw
ing, not stinting, but inteIli-
gent and systematic saving.
What Mrs. Nelson has done,
we say
Go Thou and do Likewise.

On the face of the election re-

majority vote and was given a
certificate of election. Gov.
Hunt locked him out of the office
until the court ruled t h
Campbell was entitled to it
as the holder of the certi-

test and Campbell was COM
PEELED to defend his Office to
which the court had ruled he
was entitled. At the close of
the contest on appeal the court
gave the office to Hunt by a few
votes overruling the findings of

costs and attorney fees, Camp

 The Turks have this fable which has a great deal of truth in it: As woman was walking, man gazed intently at her and then followed her at a respect full distance. The woman stopped and waited for him.
 Why" she asked. "do you follow me?"
 Because" he replied, T have fallen in love with you"
 Why so, returned the woman. My sister, who is coming after me, is much handsomer than I. Go and make love to her.
 The man turned back and saw a most unattractive woman. Greatly displeased he returned and said, Why did you tell me falsehood?''
 Because you told me one,'' answered the woman. For, if you were in love with me, why did you look back for an- other woman?"

Alabama Gardens and
 Winter Crops

M ANY of the war gardens that
 4VU were cultivated with intelli- gence and enthusiasm in the spring and early summer are now growing up in grass and weeds, which will make gardening more difficult next year. Such gardens, as the Alabama extension service at Auburn points out, provide place in which insects and disease may pass the winter.
 Other gardens are now used tenn porarily as pastures for live stock when the pea vines and corn stalks 4sshould be worked into the soil.' Still other gardens, says the extension service, are producing eggplants, kale and string beans, which are retailing at 10, 15 and 20 cents, respectively.
 It is urged that those gardeners who fall into either of the first two classes should feel it their patriotic duty to "desert at once and take an even start with those who are all-year-round vegetable producers" In order to do so it will be necessary that all garden land which is not producing fall and winter truck be planted to some late fall, winter or early spring crop be-

ITS SOMETHING LIKE THIS Elizabeth Frazer, in the Saturday Even


 Elizabeth Frazer, in the Saturday Even-
 ing Post.
 Briefly, it is something like this: A soldier is wounded on the field, in the trenches, in a wood. If alone he ap- plies his own first aid. If he has given it away to comrade, he uses his felt for tourniquet his bootlaces-any- thing. If he cannot get at his wound or if he is knocked unconscious, he lies until he is picked up by friend or foe If he is not picked up, he ''goes west" joining the great host of immortal com rades, and all is well. That is the first step, where each individual attends to himself. is attended to by others Or is lost.
 The second step consists of getting him to a dressing station, usually in some abri, where he is bandaged, given a hot drink, an injection of anti-tetanus on his forehead to indicate that he has received the same. If he is suffering acutely he is in addition given mor- phia tablet. After this he is transported by ambulance to the divisional field hos- pital, where iG he is in good condition khe is not even unloaded but sent straight on to the evacuation hospital few miles farther back. All of which, if he is lucky, he may get inside of two or three hours, and be safely tucked away in his cot coming out from under ether, raving not oi home and mother. but of going over the top, shouting in stentorian accents, "Shoot 'em to hell, boys! The dirty skunksi Shoot 'em to hell.' to the in- definite delight of his comrades in the tent ward, who cheer him on: That's s the stuff, buddy! Attaboy! Eat 'en alivev'
 Finally after much batting of wobbly eyelids, he opens his eyes feebiy upon the white-capped nurse at the foot oi the bed and murmurs h weak flat tones of pleasure: "Well. hello. chicken How'd you get over here?

 The county's allotment is nine mill

 something like three million seven
 hundred thousand dollars has been subscribed, and most of the corpora

At the rate the campaign is moving it is |safe to assume that the six million dollar mark will be reached within the next few days. z If the people of moderate means continue to respond liberally-and they willie -Jefferson's subscriptions Twill easily total ten million dolla.s. Other Liberty Loans have aroused patriotic fervor, and have gone over the top, but the appeal for the pres ent loan is/ more urgent than any heretofore made. The government needs the money-six billion dollars from the country at large-for the successful prosecution of the war. If the nationwide campaign has started off with less snap than might have
 been expected, let no one be discour- |aged in the least. There will be a great speeding up from now on.
 The money is in the country and if seven or eight billion had to be raised,
 the goal would be passed. Never was patriotic solidarity in so strong evi-
 dence as it is today and no matter
 how many Liberty Loans may follow each will be oversubscribed.

Kaiser Is Answered
 By American Press

6NHERE is gratifying unanimity N of opinion among the leading of America that Ger Imany's latest peace proposal is noth- ling more than diplomatic trick. It will be cold comfort for the Kaiser to learn that the American press, from one end of the country to the other, instantly saw through his ruse and condemned it.
 The crux of the matter is this: Pres ident Wilson's fourteen basic princi- |ples for world peace cannot and shall not be used as basis for negotia- tions. They must be accepted in ad- vance by Germany, as they were ac- |cepted by Bulgaria. Then and then only can the allied governments pro-
 ceed to further discussions, and there must be guarantees that Germany is
 acting in good faith.
 If there was any hope of interfer- ing with the fourth Liberty Loan by
 this new s.peace offensive" which is lin fact but continuation of previous efforts, it will be disappointed. Amer |ican newspapers mirror public opin- ion. They are practically as one in demanding that there be no compro- mise, no cessation in our drive to vic
 tory until Germany acknowledges de- | feat
