CARRIERS GOAT AND
SHEPPARD'S SHEEP.

Washington, Republican Sena-
tors are beginning to wonder if a
great white light is dawning in the
mentality of Senator Sheppard, OF
Texas, whodduring his entire service
in Congress has been pronounced
free trader. 1t is vel known fact
that Texas turned its face away from
free trade some years ago, although il
has not yet mustered up courage to
send rrotectionist to the United
States Senate. Last November, how
ever, Texas drew long breath and
elected a Republican to the Lower
House, Representative Wurzbach, OF
Seguin who has been serving his state
to general satisfaction.
Last year Hon John Kirby, of Peach
Tree Village, Tyler county, Texas, and
also Of Houston, assumed leadership
of the Southern Tariff Congress and
began an active campaign in the Lone
Star State to secure converts to the
protective doctrine. They came for
ward in droves. Kirby was formerly
a political supporter of Representative
Jack Garner, whose solicitude for the
Texas goat has been one of the "touch-
iingest" things in the tariff debates
of the past decade. When the Demo-
Gratis placed wool on the free list in
1913, Garner saved his goats with a

On March 18th Senator Sheppard
inserted in the Congressional Record
an editorial from the Fort Worth,
(Texas) Star-Talegram ION the sub
iect Of the proper tariff policy toward
the South" The article quotes Col.
Ike Pryor, chairman of the tariff
schedule committee of the Southern
Tariff Congress as saying: 1--WE have

LITTLE GIRL WAIF DIES,
PARENTAGE NEVER KNOWN

Lawrenceburg. - The little girl left
on the doorsteps of Albert Nichols,
near Slavisa, a year ago, and legally
adopted by the Nicholases, died. At
the last Lawrenceburg fair a strange
man asked Mrs. Nichols to permit him
TO take the child to another part of the
amphitheater, saying the infants real
mother desired to see it. Mr.. and Mrs.
Nichols believed this was an attempt
to kidnap the infant, and they imme-
diately returned home. No other hint
of the parentage of the child ever was
received.

YOUNG GIRLS need CARE
Mothers, watchyourD aughters'Health
Health Is HAPPINESS

From the time Q girl reaches the
age Of twelve until womanhood is es-
tablished, she needs all the care a
thoughtful mother can give.
The condition that the girl is then
passing through is so critical, and may
have such far-reaching effects upon
her future happiness and health, that
it is almost criminal for q mother or
guardian to withhold counsel or ad-
vice.
Many a woman has suffered years
Of prolonged pain and misery through
having been the victim of thought
lessness or ignorance on the part of
those who should have guided her
through the dangers and difficulties
that beset this period
Mothers should teach their girls
what danger comes from standing
around with cold or wet feet, from
lifting heavy articles, and from over
working. Do not let them over-study.
If they complain Of headache, pains
in the back and lower limbs, thew
need a mothers thoughtful care and
