ONE DOLLAR SAVED REPRESENTS
TEN DOLLARS EARNED.

The average man does not save to ex-
ceed ten per ceut of his earnings. He
must spend nine dollars in living expen-
ses for every dollar saved. That being
the case he can not be too careful about
unnecessary expenses. Very often a
few cents properly invested, like buying
seeds for his garden, will save several
dollars outlay later later on. It is the
same in buying Chamberlain Collie and
Diarrhoea Remeky. 1t costs but few
cents, and bottle of it in the house Of
ten saves a doctor bill ofseveral dollars.

him ransacking the upper floor OF

HIMALAYAS IN SECOND PLACE
Exploration in Tibet Have Revealed
Existence of More Massive
Mountain Range.

Among the greatest results achieved
by the Hedin explorations in Tibet
was the discovery of a continuous
mountain chain, 1000 miles long,
stretching east and west, and which,
taken as whole, is the most massive
range on the crust of the earth. Its
average height above sea level is
greater than that of the Himalayas,
and although it's peaks are from 1000
to 5000 feet lower than Mount Ever
est, its passes average 5000 feet high
er than those of the Himalayas.
The eastern and western parts of
this range we're known before, but the
central and highest part, in Bongba,
was UNEMPLOYED previous to Doctor
Hedin's visit. He crossed ten passes
in the range.

Tex. Indians first reported it. Then
Spanish missionaries and soldiers,
working their way northward from the
outpost of San Antonio, heard of the
''honey mine" twas said to be high
up on hill and inaccessible, except
by hanging over cliff.
IIyAater years, after the Indians and
SpaMgh were gone, efforts were made
to 9her this cave, and one adventur-
err iHtaid to have been stung to death.

sessiN At ReeS, who. is making his
heaCf jfters in Fort Worth during his
queS -s from San Saba county. There
a hg1y cave exists, and is high up on
the Hillside. Residents near there,
how er, will not venture an opinion
as IS the amount of honey stored
away in the cavern recesses or as to
the age of the cave. But they say
positively no one has ever been able
to reach the honey.
At one time young men living near

The leader, armed with a blast of ex-

the cliff and down to the cave en-
