You Should Confine
or Vaccinate Your Dog
I
Drastic steps are going to he neces-
sary to curb the scourge of rabies
that In sweeping Lamar and Red River
counties. During such weather as
we are now having every dog should
either be muzzled, kept tied up or vac-
cinated. Animals that were bitten by
mad dogs last winter of which there
■were a great number, are just now
going made with the arrival of sum-
mer heat.
In scfuthw^st Lamar county several
head of stock have gone mad from
the bites of dogs, and there is scarce-
ly a community in either county that
has not had from one to half a dozen
raids made by mad dogs, and there is
no way of learning Just how many ani-
mals these dogs have bitten.
One man living near Bogata and a
Deport family are now taking the ,
serum treatment for protection against
rubies after having been bitten by
(logs. In Port Worth two people have
died horrible deaths with the diseasa,
and that city is thinning out the dog
population, killing all strays and
worthless animals and making their
owners keep them on their own prem-
ises or muzzled.
The grave situation that confronts
the people of this community makes
It necessary to adopt similar methods
for protection of life.—Deport Times.
A REAL SALESMAN.
"Did you ever have any real ex-
citing experiences?" I asked a travel-
ing salesman.
"About 20 years ago." he replied, "I
was ordered out of of a Wyoming town
by a notorious two-gun man who did
not like the cut of my colthes."
"Well, I suppose you lost no time
in getting away?"
"No, sir; I bought him a couple of
drinks and sold him the suit." t
Smile—Don't Worry
i The world knows but little of fail-
ures and cares less. The world .,pnly
I watches the successes. Stop worry-
i Ing over things that can't be helped
j and go out and do things that can be
i done. Pew people care a continental
for your failure. Few, if any, will
' help.
I You will sit and magnify yotir mis-
takes, mourn and go mad over your
blunders, but men will only smilAtluu
cynical smile and say of you, "He's
no good."
Self-pity, sympathy soliciting and
wishing and waiting will only let you
down lower. Brace up. Think up.
And you are bound to get up. Paint
your face with a great big smile. Ad-
vertise that you are a success, then
think and work for it—Exchange.

Is New Law a Joke, Too?
"Is ihe new 'trot check' law In Texas
i joke?" is the editorial query of the
Dallas Times Herald, which goes on
to say:
The district attorney thinks It is,
and, so thinking, the district attorney
has instructed all of his assistants to
tie "very careful" in taking complaints
for the violation of that b'w.
Primarily, or fundament t>'ly, accord-
imr to the district attorney, the law U
li.isi ,( on the old swindling statute,
which made it nn offense t'.ir any per-
son to Issue a i heck or draft for t1i^
payment of money by :i hanking insti-
tution in which he or she had no
funds, or insufficient funds to cover
the payment requested.
And the new law differ^ from the
old. almost exclusively and entirely, in
that it allows the check waiter 15
days fn which to "make good" a check
issued against no funds or insufficient
ones.
Instead of being hard on the trans-
gressor. the new law therefore is easi-
er.
But is it easier on the tradesman,
too? It placed the check writer un-
der the fear of the law'-! penalty: and
rorces him. under fear of jail sentence,
io "make good" the worthless check
which he caused to be Issued.
Perhaps It will serve to prevent
many business losses but even though
tt does so. It will make convictions
harder to obtain.
Therefore the district attorney has
requested care in the taking of com-
plaints—has advised his assistants to
beware of the "joker" that requires
the state to prove that each writer
of a worthless check had the required
15-day notice before the prosecution
Is started.—Benton Record-Chronicle.
DREADFUL PAINS
Georgia Lady, Who Had Lost Too
Much Weight, Was Advised
to Take Cardui and Is
Now Well.
Columbus, Ga.—-Mrs. George S. ^
Hunter, of this city, writes:
"After I married, thirteen months
ago, I suffered with dreadful pains
in my sides during ... My side
hurt so bad It nearly killed me. I
had to go to bed and stay some-
times two weeks at a time. I
could not work and I just dragged
around the house.
"I got very thin—I went from 126
pounds down to less than 100. My
mother had long been a user of
Cardui and she knew what a good
medicine it was for this trouble, so
Bhe told me to get some and take it.
I sent to the store after it and be-
fore I had taken the first bottle
I began to improve.
"My side hurt less and I began to
improve in health. ... The Cardui
acted as a fine tonic and I do not
feel like the same person. I am
bo much better. I am well now. IB
I have gained ten pouuds and am
Still gaining. My Bides do uot
trouble me at all.
"I wish every suffering woman
knew about Cardui." NC-160
