The Cheery Dandelion.
Of ell the merry, happy go lucky
flowers the yellow dandelion takes the
prise. It is “bon camarade” with the

smiles cheerily up at you from the
dusty highway. In the crowded alloy,
reeking with filth. It bravely opens its
yellow petals. Anywhere and every-

Croup and Cough Remedy
Croup is a terrible disease, it attacks
children so suddenly they are very apt
to choke unless given the proper rem-
edy at once. There is nothing better
In the world than Dr. King’s New Dis-
covery. Lewis Chamberlain, of Man-
chester, Ohio, writes about his chil-
dren: “Sometimes in severe attacks
we were afraid they would die, but
since we proved what a certain rem-
edy Dr. King’s New Discovery Is, we
have no fear. We rely on it for croup,
coughs and colds." So can you. 50c

SHERMAN, Dec. 17.—Prof. A. E. Mill-
er, assistant State Entomologist and
connected with the A. & M. College at
College Station, who has been spending
several days past in the wheat and oat
fields of Grayson County, was in Sher-
man yesterday. Prof. Miller came into
North Texas on account of reports
from this section to the effect .that the
little green bug which played such
havoc with the grain fields of Texas
and Oklahoma fourteen years ago w’as
again operating on the growing grain.
Speaking of this matter, Prof. Miller
said that while he had found the bugs
here to some extent, he does not be-
lieve they are here in numbers large
enough to do much damage. Another
encouraging feature, according to Prof.
Miller, is the fact that a parasite which
is the natural en$my of the. aphis is
here in larger numbers than the aphis,
and he says that by the time spring
arrives the parasite will have the aphis
extinguished, provided conditions re-
main anything like they are. A sudden
freeze would also do away with the
aphis, for he is now active, and to be
caught from under cover in a freeze
would mean his instant death.
Prof. Miller also calls attention to
the fact that there are more ladybugs
tnis year than usual at this season,
and aiso reminds grain men that when-
ever there are large numbers of lady-
bugs the grain crop is nearly always
a sure crop.
Prof. Miller, however, while In North
Texas, will visit all the grain fields that
he can reach on the railroads, and es-
pecially desires to go Into the large
fields in west Collin County and south-
west Grayson County.
While In Sherman he was a guest of
Tom L. Tennison, former county
demonstrator for the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, but now of-
fice deputy in Sheriff Lee Simmons’
office.
Stomach Troubles Disappear
Stomach, liver and kidney troubles,
weak nerves, lame back and female ills

be without a'bottie in their home.
Eliza Pool of Depew, Okla., writes:
“Elictrlo Bitters raised me from a bed
of sickness and suffering and has done
me a world of good. 1 wish every suf-
fering woman could use this excellent
remedy and find out, as I did, just how
good it is.” As it has helped thous-
ands of oOiers, it surely will do the
same for you. Every bottle guaranteed,

Different Names For Waves.
They bare curiously different names
for waves about the coast of Great
Britain. The Peterhead folk call the
large breakers that fall with a crash
on tbe beach by the grim name of
“Norrawa (Norway) carpenters.” On
the low Lincolnshire coast, as on tbe
southwestern Atlantic fronting shore
of these islands, the grandly long un-
broken waves are known as "rollers.”
Among east Angllans a heavy surf,
tumbling in with an offshore wind or
In a calm, is called by tbe expressive
name of a “slog." while a well marked
swell, rolling in independently of any
blowldg, is called a “home.” “There is
no wind.” a Suffolk fisherman will say.
“but a nasty home on the beach.” Suf-
folk men also speak of tbe “bark" of
the surf, and a sea covered with foam
Is spoken of as “feather white.” Tbe
foam itself is known aa “spoon drift”
So. In tbe vernacular, we have ft “Tbe
sea was all a feather white with spoon
drift"
