THE PEARSALL LEADER, PEARSALL,
Onion seeds are arriving from
he Canary Islands for local grow-
who will start planting the
part of September. The
u ' Wax seed oroduction was
short and some of our growers
probably be disappointed- Of
he amount ordered through Hud-
vh Woodward all yellows were
sheered and the Crystal Wax
re short only 30 pounds- This
mount was made up when they
• led in a late order for 50
nds for another grower plus
pounds more of yellows to make
]) the shortage in wax. The ea-
rn order was acknowledged and
70 pounds were shipped the
iiowing day, and barring cap-
r at sea should arrive in ample
me to be among the earliest
lanted.

STATE GIRLS TRAINING
SCHOOL.
To The Mothers and Women
of Pearsall and Vicinity.
Do you think that Texas should
have an institution where^ girl
who has made a mistake4in life
may have a chance to correct her
mistake.
We want all those who think
such an institution should be es-
tablished, to join hands with the
Board of Control and Finance Com-
mittee of the “State Girls Train-
ing School” and help us raise the
necessary funds for its establish-
ment The State of Texas is to
furnish $25,000 when we raise an
additional sum of $25,000, and we
now have about $10,000 of the
necessary amount and are asking
the women of Texas to raise the
balance, by giving us $1 00 each
Can’t you give this much for this
most needed and worthy insti-
tution.
The week of Nov. 8th-14th, 1914
has been set aside for the cam-
paign to be waged to secure these
funds and there will be a woman
appointed in your community to
take charge of this campaign. Her
name will be announced later and
you can give her your dollar or
send it direct to the undersigned.
We expect -to raise at least
$15,000 in this campaign which
will insure the establshment of the
Girls Training School of Texas.
The entire amount raised in this
special campaign by the women
of Texas will be used in the erec-
tion of a Main Educational Build-
ing. This building is to be dedicat-
ed to the women of Texas and an
inscription to that effect will be
placed on the cornerstone.
If you haven’t a dollar that you
can lay aside now, you can surely
lay aside at least ten cents a week
so that by Nov. 8th you can have
the much needed dollar.
As mothers and women, you
should certainly feel very much
interested and join us in showing
the men of Texas that the women
of Texas believe in lending a help-
ing hand to a fallen sister.
Any information you may desire
will be gladly furnished. -
A Sincerely,
Quentin D- ('orley,
Chairman, Finance Committee,
State Girls Training School.
REFUSED
“Refused Notice.” Every ed-
itor has received them. The post-
master sends them to the editor.
For instance, there is a man by
the name of John Blank, who re-
fused to take his paper out of the
postoffice. He did not want it any
longer, and we wondered what was
the matter. Upon investigating
our subscription book we found
that John was $7.50 short He
stopped the paper as a matter of
economy to us. One evening we
went to church and John’s voice
rang out loud and clear in that
soul stirring song. “Jesus Paid it
Ail.” We might have been mis-
taken but his earnestness impress-
ed us., The next day we sent him
a receipt in full begging his par-
don for not knowing he had made
arrangements for his liabilities in
that manner.—Ex
TEACHERS’ EXAMINATION.

Wmc*, Texts, says tint Grigh’i UV-
Most people of sedentary occu-
pation as Editors, Bookkeeper!,
office employees, stenographer!
and others who spend their lives
indoors are more subject to the
ravages of malaria than those who
take a large amount of exercise
out of doors.
Mr. Shannon devotes much of
his time to writing and was a
great sufferer from bilious head-
aches until he took LIV-VEB-
LAX.
On his own statement, this re-
nowned remedy cured him, just
as surely as it will cure you of
Constipation or other malarial
symptons. These symptons are
the signals ahead of serious com-
plications if not eliminated.
There is no compromise with
malaria. You must get it^or it
will get you. The ounce of pre-
vention in the form of LIV-VER-
LAX may save even your life
from Malaria, from which nearly
every one in this climate suffers
in a greater or less degree, de-
velops rapidly when it once gets
a hold on your system. Adv

there seven weeks ago. He trav-1

“lCAN’T WAIT.”
This is an absurd statement and
usually comes from one who has
done nothing but “wait” and has
nothing to show for it. Have you
a Will, or are you all Can’t? You
are a professional man, became
you willed to be a professional
man. You are a business man
because willed to be such. Did
you wait? surely these men have
waited, but the secret of their suc-
cess is due to the fact that they
started.
Do you find many business or
rofessional men who are renters?
o. Why? Because they have a
Will, and because they have the
determination to start.
Do you find many wage,—earn-
ers who are renters? Yes. Why?
Because they have never known a
plan like ours where they make a
start and where the going is easy.

ing loan.. Others profit by i t.
