There Is a slacker drive being form-

Hugh Smith, sheriff of Bell coun-

the Texas Sheriff's Association.
Wages are to be paid in proportion

When he was a pro-German he is-

'Vie camouflage of the future candl-

"Broken and ruined the tomb

their spirits be reincarnated to fight
again for the grandest prize of all
time.
There will be war time progress for
an Influence so important as the
Fourth Estate. The newspapers will
attain to a higher degree of usefulness
and service.
Sixteen men from each state will
be sent to Camp Perry, Ohio, next
month to take training a.s instructors

Eagle Eye.
Those who are personally involved
in the belligerent controversy now be-
ing waged in the air, on land and
sea, over and under and all around
the world, should keep a record of
the history of the war in a "scrap"
book.
Three phases of world politics now
requiring special consideration consist
of the oil situation in Mexico, bol-

There is a chance that we may win
on each of these three fronts.
Those who desire entrance to offi-

This is the only avenue of entrance

President Wilson will write some of

Anybody can buy Liberty Bonds but it
Is only the experts who can properly
manipulate the publicity needed to
convey an idea from the mind of a
government to the mind of a people.
The German government requires
that all letters from their prison
camps contain statements in praise
of food conditions and the excellence
of general conditions. letters from
soldiers, containing such statements,
are to be taken with a grain of con-
sideration as to the duress under
which the letters were written.

The Kaiser's Dream.
The kaiser dreamed that he would
reign from Naples to Alaska; his sub-
jects would be found In Maine, and
up in Athabasca. He'd ride in state
through Boston town and swagger In
To.-onto, and see the peoples kneel.ng
down—where has the vision gone to?
Oh, Wiihelm ate some liverwurst one
night before retiring, and saw himself
in splendor burst upon a world ad-
miring. He had a throne set up In
Cork, another one in I^insing, he saw,
through Rochester, New York, his
retinue advancing. The nations bow-
ed to hail their lord, revered his two-
faced eagle; he gave the vanquished
as reward a smile sublime and regal.
Oh, Wiihelm ate some rancid cheese
before he sought his slumbers; a lot
of batty dreams like these he had in
endless numbers. If you eat goose
before you sleep, and dream you're
Alexander, you say, "Hereafter I will
keep away from goose and gander."
But Wiihelm thought his dreams were
sane, and not the fruit of sausage;
and so he spoiled with bloody rain
the age of peace, the boss age. May
he be reigning 011 a rock, when this
grim war is ended, some lonely crag
where seagulls flock and all the woes
are blended.
Some of the limited service men
have a chance to go over.
There are to be about 40,000 sol-
diers in the divisions that are to be
set overseas to win the war; eighty
divisions are to be sent by the begin-
ning of the next summer campaign.
After that the fighting will take on
the volume necessary to bring the
war to a close. This seems to be
an outline of the government plan.
The army is being manned with
chaplains at the ratio of one to every
1,200 officers and men. The demand
is for "Sturdy upstanding, bortherly
men who care il good deal more about
the welfare of the soldiers than about
distinction in creeds."
Of all the soldiers sent to the
hospitals only 45 out of every
1,000 die. Of all the soldiers wound-
ed in action more than four-fifths re-
turn to service, many of them In less
than two months.

'And what," asked the heathen of
the missionary, "have you to offer me
that I do not enjoy now?"
"The blessings of civilization," an-
swered the missionary.
"Civilization?" said the heathen.
"Oh, you mean booze, politics and
divorce? Not for mine."
How often have you heard an argu-
ment that was about something that
was worth arguing about? Neither

"What is she, an adventuress?" ask-

"No," replied Smith. "She's mar-

never discovered a blame thing on
her."

Luke Mciiitke Says
What has become of the old fash-
ioned mother who fed her baby in
public while the other women shooed
the nosy men away?
On hot days like these daughter
uses so much violet talcum powder
that mother has to be satisfied with
corn starclr.
After watching the complexions on
the street you always wonder why it
is that all the great artists are men.
The up-to-date tailor-made girl
won't wear as well as the old-fash-
ioned home-made girl.
Speaking of shirt-sleeve diplomacy,
the ice man has his eyes open and
his mouth shut these hot mornings.
A man will roast his better half for
wearing corsets. But he wouldn't go
down town with her if she didn't have
them on.
A woman can sleep soundly through
the combined excitement of an explo-
sion, a thunderstorm and a fire next
door. But If the baby smiles in his
sleep she is wide awake.
Once upon a time there was a man
who let his wife read the paper first
at the breakfast table. But he died.
He was too good for this world.
A man can carry a hundred dollars
in a card case, but If a woman has a
dime she has to have a large mesh
bag with a young rope for a handle.
The wings she may wear in the next
world do not worry a woman half as
much as the plumes and pompons she
needs right here.

CHAPTER 161.
When I was setting la the calf's
stall this morning drinking a glass of
skim milk to show her bow tt was
done sh« stuck her nose out tordst tt
and that was the first time she had
ever done that and so I stopped drink-
ing and let her try it and the glass
was allmost full yet and she tried to
get her whole snoot Into the glass
and she couldn't and then she gave a
bunt and I was not looking for any-
thing like that and the glass hit me
on the chin and the milk went In my
eyes and all over the front of my
clothes and she was standing with her
front feet In my lap and that made
me so mad that I gave her a puntch
on the nose and that made her holler
for her mother and that made the
cow mad. I could tell by the way she
looked at me, and 1 got out of the
stall and lammed the cow with the
milk stool to show her who was boss
and make her stand over and then I
milked her and gave Jubilee his. and
then when 1 went In with the milk I
went in and said to my father 1.00k
what that darn calf done, and he raid
Do not use sutch language before your
little sister, snd then he ssted me
about it and I told him how hard I
had been trying to lern her to drink
and they all laughed and he looked
at the clock and he said he guessed
he had time to show me how it was
done and he went out in the kitchen
anil put some milk in a stew pan with
a long handle on the stove and he
kept putting his finger In It to te!l
w hen it was warm enough and I would
hate to be a calf and have to drink
milk that anyone has had their hands
in, and then we all went out to tho
barn and he went In the stall and said
to her So Bos«y and then he put his
whole hand in the mik and left one
fi^er sticking out and the calf took
hole of the finger and began to suel; !
and my father kept pulling his finger
down under the milk farther till the
calf had her nose In the milk and
was drinking and did not .have enough
sense to know it, and I thought that
was pretty slick and my ant said my
father always did have a way with
animals and my father looked proud
and turned to look at my mother and
my unkel and he said there ain't
mutch anyone can tell me about farm
work, and just then the calf bunted
the stew pan and my father was go-
ing to say something else just then
but he couldn't because his mouth
and face and ayes was full of milk,
and when he had coughed and spit a
few times he said some things that
made my mother tell him to not use
sutch language before his son. All he
said to my mother was to warm an-
other stewpan full of milk and he
would show that calf who was boss
around here, so my mother took the
stewpan and went in and my father
said there couldn't no calf get ahead
of him, and when my mother come
out with the stewpan he tok the han-
dle In one hand and got straddle of
the calf's back with the other and
held her by the neck and stuck the
pan around under her nose and when
she seen she could not keep her nose
out of it she made a run out of the
stall and when they was going past
my mother and ant and unkel they
all got some of the milk and my fath-
er throwed the rest of it all over him-
self trying to not fall off the calf
when it was going out of the barn
door, and he fell off on his back when
he had rid about half ways acrosst the
yard and the calf turned around ami
run back in the barn to the cow, and
my father got up and was mad and
he said to me Now I have gave you
an idee how It should be done you
can attend to It, and I said Yes sir,
and he went in the house and my
mother and unkel and ant went in
too, and they all had a bad case of
the grins.
I did not dast to laugh as mutch as
I wanted to till I had got the calf
in the stall and was on my way to the
pasture with the cow, and there was
not any use putting her in the pasture
because she would get out through the
busted gate anyhow but I put her In
anyhow. Grownups sre not very
brite. When I got back to the mud-
hole the buntch was there all but the
lost bag of tripe whs was hiding out
from the man somewhere and I told
them all about my father and the calf
and they thought that was pretty
good. When I was in sohool my teach-
er asted me how my wen was get-
rms out aoms of th.
buntch wasted to Co dew th* raveen
and make a flrs and mm* of them
wanted to go to the brickyard to see
if we could get a job turning bricks
and some wanted to go to the break-
water so wo all went out back of the
pore house and felt of the river to
see if it was warm enough yet and
It wasn't
When we got out to the pasture our
cow had bust.d out again and the
man that owns the pasture was there
and he said to tell my father he
would expect him to pay for Ax-
ing the gate and he had a new gate
made, but our cow had gone homo
a long time ago. We made it up that
we would stop carrying the calf
around every day so we would be
able to carry her around when she
got to be a cow. for we talked It over
and we could not see any sense In
carrying a cow around even if we
could do It People would think we
was craxy. I swiped the n.pple of
Annabell Lee's bottle and put it in
the pan and the little bugger of a
calf nicked it like she was a baby,
and I put the nipple back and nobody
knowed the difference. I bet if I
would get a patent on that I would
get rich. I went to bed early, but it
was my father's fault I did not pray.

YOUR HEALTH

Uric Add Condition.
German Mines Off Australia.
Sydney, New South Wales, Aug. 16.
—The finding of enemy mines along
the Australian coast Is announced. It
is believed that the mines were laid
by a German commerce raider.
Mln c.—wm yew Hndty pubhsh
on article on uric oddity 0/ the
stomach or the urie acid condition,
vhich teems to be my trouble f I
have no rkenmatlrm Ist frtnulation
of the eyelidt, fever Miller* on my
month most of the time, feel the
cold very much ia winter, Juice con-
itipation, coated tongue, bad taste
in the month, etc., in »t>if« of itrict
abstinence from red meats, tomatoes,
acid fntits, vinegar, and the free nse
Of cathartics.
A.—The uric acid csnditlon Is
n perverse and obstinate one,
find, as in your case, often visits
those who have lived a perfectly
abstemious and correct life, and
eeMiingly overlooks others who have
recklessly disregarded the laws of
health.
But that would not justily yot» nor
me In disregarding sanitary precau-
tions and throwing scientific rules
overboard.
We are sorely safer, as a rule. In
being particular about our habits and
modes of living, as you have appar-
ently been, and as, 1 hope, will con-
tinue to be.
An eminent physician and dletetl-
tian of New York, Professor Porter,
lays that uric acid results from the
thenilc&l changes which take place
!n the albuminoid foods—fish, meat,
milk, and eggs principally; but that.
It is never found in these foods nor
ippears anywhere during the diges-
tive process, nor in the blood under
normal conditions, but Is tuanufac-
lured only in the cells of the
kidneys and is a waste, or final
product of food changes.
It is discharged with the urine,
•1 when there Is too much of It
* ation is not going on properly
u the body.
When oxidation proceeds as It
should, uric acid combines with
jther substances in the kidneys or
bladder and Is discharged from tho
body as such compounds.
One of these compounds, for ex-
tmpie, is sodium urate, which Is
'frmed by combination of uric acid
vith sodium ehlnrido tor table salt)
which circulates h» solatia* in tho
blood.
Too much arlc acid also means Im-
proper chemical changes In the albs*
minoid food, and that tho uric aclS
has produced disease.
The tendency to excessive forma.
Uon of arlc acid Is common In mid-
dle life and old age.
It may come from worry and want'
of sleep, over exertion, Improper diet,
and free use of wine or beer.
It Is seen In sucb diseases as rbeti-.
mattsm, goat, joint diseases, and
various forms of Indigestion.
It may lead t,o the formation of
hard stonos in tho kidney or blad-
der, which are vry much mora
troublesome than those which are
soft and easily broken.
It may be absorbed from the kid-
neys into the blood and deposited 1b
the Joints and other tissues.
When it Is present or suspected,
the bowels and kidneys must be kept
moving freely, water and milk drunk
in abundance, and simple, laxative
food eaten, such as bran, oils,
prunes, figs, and baked apples.
Albuminoid foods must be eaten
sparingly, especially meat, fish, and
egfcs.
As these substances are responsible
for uric add, the less they are eaten,
the less, as a rule, will there be o(
uric acid.

Answer—If you have read the ar-

have noted that I suggested, as the
proper treatment for varicose veins
—when not too enlarged or thick-
ened—the pressure of a bandage. If
tho veins are very troublesome ar.d
make walking or standing uncom'
