A lady who had family of three children didn't want any more because she had heard that every fourth child born in the world was Chinaman.
 As ludcrous, perhaps, as an old misconcep- tion some skeptical folks used to have about ad- vertising.
 There was time, when some advertise ments had to be taken with grain of salt. A few misguided advertisers thought they could sell their goods better by misrepresenting them: Those advertisers have long since gone out of business or mended their ways. Hard exper- fence taught that untruthful advertising didn't pay.
 Other advertisers proved that the only way to advertise successfully, make regular custom ers and build up good will was to tell the dbso- lute truth about their goods in their advertise ments.
 You can depend on the merchant or manu- facturer who advertises. The concern that tells you frankly what it is doing is a good concern with which to do business The store that adver- tises is progressive store that has something really worth while to say to you. And compan- ies that advertise their products or their service have confidence in them. You can safely share their confidence.
 Inferior merchandise cannot masquerade Tn the quality clothes of advertising.

 NEW YORK. Sept. -2AThe theory that Mrs. Grace Laws. losing the friendship and financial assistance Of Miss Mildred Hanan, was driven to a frenzy which resulted in her shoot ing the shoe manufacturer daugh- fer and then committing suicide was advanced today by John s. Borland, a central figure in yesterdays trag- edy.
 Borland. Dartmouth graduate, inn porter and friend of both Miss Ha- nan and Mrs. .Laws, advanced his theory only after he had been pressed to do so by Assistant District Attor- ney Wilson
 He asserted that the ending of the friendship, carrying with it with flrawal of Miss Hanan's financial as- sistance had left Mrs. Laws nearly .ebroke." He expressed belief that this was followed by the excessive drinking for which Mrs. Laws wrote her regret in a letter addressed to her sister in San FranciSco and was found among her possessions. Then, in turn, according to the Borland theory, came the homicidal frenzy.
 It was learned that when the as- sistant district attorney attempted 10 QueSllOIl MISS I1dfdIf AS HE Ail d Brooklyn hospital, the girl answered all questions except those pertaining to the question of whether Mrs. Lewis had owed her money.
 When a detective asked Miss Ha- nan why the other divorcee had shot her, the girl closed her eyes and barely moved her head from side to side to signify she did not know.
 Did Mir Borland have anything to do with it?' asked the detective.
 Not in the least" she replied.
 This statement concerning Miss Hanan's condition was made by one of the surgeons attending her:
 q don't say she is going to get well. for her condition is critical, but she is much better than we ex- pected."

Arizona's proportion of money which this state

 This means much to every person in the state, as the amount of money raised by taxes for the consrc tion of roads is considerable part of the entire sum and instead of meeting federal aid dollar for dollar for the building of roads which Arizona has done up to the present time if this proportion which the state must appropriate is reduced it will result in material reduc- ton in taxes, reduction which would be more than welcome especially at the present time.
