"Holeproof" Costs No More Than Others
There are just two kinds of hosiery—the kind
that wears and the kind that tears. Yet they both
•ell for the same price.
Certainly you would not buy unguaranteed hosiery
when for the same money you can get the famous
"Holeproof'' guaranteed against holes for six months.
You pay no more for "Holeproof" but it wears
■is times as long.
Every box of Holeproof Hosiery contains a written
guarantee. 1! any holes appear within six months you
present the guarantee and get new hosiery free.
This hosiery is as smooth and soft as silk. It is
shaped to fit the ankle like a glove firs
the hand—it is both stylish and comfort-
able.
Learn what this hosiery really is—come
in and see it for yourself today. Price
from 25 to SO cents a pair.

The Wrong Spirit.
Frederick Townsend Martin was
condemning the spirit that animates
too many "slum" expeditions.
'•A little girl from the East Side,"
he said, "was invited the other day
to a garden party given by a very
aristocratic lady to a group of little
East Siders.
"The little girl, as she dradk her
; tea and ate her plum cake on a vel-
: vet lawn under a white-blooming
cherry tree, said to her hostess:
"Does your husband drink ?"
"Why er-no, not to excess,' was
the astonished r ply."
' How much i >es he make?"
"He desen't work,' said the lady ;
"he is a capitalist."
"You keep cut of dept. I hope?"
"Of course, child. What on
earth—."
"Your color ijoks natural—I trust
you don't paint "
"Look here, explained the host-
ess, "what do you mean by ail these
jimpudent questions?"
"Impudent?" said the little girl,
j "Why, ma'am, mother told me to
be sure and behave like a lady, and
when ladies call at our rooms they
always quest: mothet/ffke that."

Lsgislatiws New* Letter.
Austin. Tex —This is political
kit# season in Texas and many a
queer craft can be teen floating In
the breeze, and. lest the grandstand
forget, a iky rocket now and then
illuminates the horizon, but the signs
ablase in the political skies point to
rough weather.
The investigation has been going
merrily on and many a politician
has been playing hands with the
Goddess of Justice by confessing the
sins of others. Many Antis refuse
to recognize the authority of the
committee, and a contest to deter-
mine its jurisdiction is now on.
Three members of the House were
arrested Friday and a jail sentence
was imposed in one instance, but the
committee rescinded the action
The life of the present committee
will end on August 30th, but a joint
committee to continue the probing is
contemplated.
The Appropriation Bill is about
ready for the consideration of the
Governor. As a whole, the Bill is
quite an improvement over anything
of the sort passed in recent yeats,
and an examination of the items re-
veal that our solons tried to seize the
swift liorse of progress by the bridle
as it passed. Of course there is
human nature all through it and
many of ihe items have had bad
latin upon them, but the Legislature
struck the trail of civilization oc-
casionally. Another Legislature
and Texas will be getting on its feet.
The State Senatorial and Siate
Representative District Bill passed
the House and Senate and the bill is
as dry as a powder house. The
Governor, however, may oot approve
the bill and the Pros have not a suffi-
cient majority to pass over his veto
In the event of the failure of the
Legislature to harmonize with the
views of the Governor, it is likely
that there will be no Legislation at
this Session and the Districts will re-
main as they are for the present.
There has been eighteen subjects
submitted for general Legislation to
date as follows :
Appropriation, Re-Districting, Re-
pealing the Automatic Tax Law,
Payment of deficiencies, Special ap-
propriation for prosecution of elec-
tion frauds; prescribing a uniform
system of text books. prescribing
and fixing jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court; reforming and revising Civil
and Criminal Codes; creating a State Mrs.
Normal Board of Regents, creating Eirl
the position of Public Highway En-
gineer ; amending the fire insurance
law; an eighteen hour law; Con-
Castro Cs«aty Clippings.
Prom The Diamitt Plainsman of
Friday, August 18.
Taxes were levied on general funds
sixteen and two-thirds cents on the
hundred dollars for roads and bridg-
es and S cents for the staking funds.
There is being agitated plans for
having a cotton gin put up st Dim-
mitt if the promoters can raise suffi-
cient money. They believe that
such a thing would pay here. Sev-
eral gentlemen have promised ten
.dollars and more toward the enter-
prise, and the promoters have no
doubt but that they can raise the re-
quired amount in time for the fall
crop.
