pepsin that quickly relieves the
congestion of undigested food and
poisonous waste matter, and re-
stores the normal regularity of
natural action. It does not gripe
or cramp and is as safe and pleas-
ant for children as it is effective on
even the strongest constitution.
” Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is
the indispensable family remedy
in thousands of homes and is sold
in drug stores everywhere.
In spite of the fact that Dr. Cald-
well’s Syrup Pepsin is the largest selling
liquid laxative in the world, there
being over 6 million bottles sold each
year, many who need its benefits have

Parade at Fort Worth Marks Opening
of Convention.
By Associated Press.
Fort Worth, March 16.—Lead by Brig.
Gen. F. A. Howell, commander of the
Patriarchs Millitant of Texas Odd Fel-
lows, 1,800 members of the T. 0, O. F. of
the Rebekahs paraded in Fort Worth
this morning. The parade marked the
opening of the ten-day session of the
grand lodge. At Monday night’s ses-
sion, E. Q. Vestal of Dallas, was named
secretary to succeed W. H. Walker of
Dallas, deceased. All other officers
advanced in rotation. The annual de-
gree team contest of the Rebekahs will
be held tonight.
Judging from the countless prepara-
tions and treatments which are contin-
ually being advertised for the purpose
of making thin people fleshy, develop-
ing arms, neck and bust, and replacing
ugly hollows and angles by the soft
curved lines of health and beauty, there
are evidently thousands of men and
women who keenly feel their excessive
thinness.
Thinness and weakness are often due
to starved nerves. Our bodies need
more phosphate than is contained in
modern - foods. Physicians claim there
is nothing that will supply this defi-
ciency so well as the organic phosphate
known among druggists as bitro-phos-
phate, which is inexpensive and is sold
by most all druggists under a guaran-
tee of satisfaction or money back. By
feeding the nerve directly and by sup-
plying the body cells with the neces-
sary phosphoric food elements, bitro-
phosphate should produce a welcome
transformation in the appearance; the
increase in weight frequently being as-
tonishing.
Increase in weight also carries with
it a general improvement in the health.
Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of
energy, which nearly always accom-
pany excessive thinness, should soon
disappear, dull eyes brighten and pale
cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect
health.
CAUTION.—While Bitro-Phosphate is
unsurpassed for relief of nervousness,
general debility, etc., those taking it
who do not desire to put on flesh should
use extra care in avoiding fat-produc-
ing foods.

Grandview, Tex., March 16 Work
preparatory to rebuilding Grandview,
which was almost wiped out by Sun-
day’s fire, was well under way today.
Shelter and food had been provided for
more than 1,000 homeless citizens, while
further relief measures were in prog-
ress. -
First rehabilitation work was direct-
ed mainly at clearing debris from the
streets and restoring the light and wa-
ter systems. Destruction of the two
lumber yards was expected to delay
actual reconstruction work.
After a thorough investigation May-
or Z. P. Williams estimated the prop-
erty loss at about $1,000,000, nearly
one-half of which was protected by in-
surance, Approximately eighty per
cent of the town’s business buildings
were completely destroyed.
Truck loads of provisions, cots, blan-
kets, clothing and tents were sent here
by citizens of Cleburne, Itasca, Burle-
son, Hillsboro and other cities. Two
hundred army tents and blankets also
were in transit from Fort Sam Hous-
ton.
The Cleburne Chamber of Commerce
telegraphed the relief committee to
draw upon it for any amount needed
up to $15,000, that sum having been
collected by popular subscription yes-
terday. Other nearby towns also were
reported raising funds for stricken peo-
ple here.
If you have Catarrhal Deafness or
head and ear noises or are growing
hard of hearing go to your druggist
and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double
strength), and add to it 14 pint of hot
water and a little granulated sugar.
Take 1 tablespoonful four times a day.
This will often bring quick relief
from the distressing head noises. Clog-
ged nostrils should open, breathing
become easy and the mucus stop drop-
ping into the throat. It is easy to
prepare, costs little and is pleasant to
take. Anyone who has Catarrhal Deaf-
ness or head noises should give this

his opinion and stated that satisfactory

Harris county which would cost much
less than the bids opened some time
ago. The matter was referred to the
road and bridge committee, which com-

and decide as to the vats.
A communication was read from Dr.
J. B. Reidy at Houston, replying to a
request from the county for names of
the owners of certain cattle shipped out
of High Island recently. The reply
stated that the information had been

structed to take the matter up with
the state live stock sanitary commis-
sion in an effort to secure the infor-
mation.
Approved claims totaling $402.99 were

The real estate men of the city view
with apprehension the slow progress
being made on the east end extension
of the Galveston seawall. At yester-
day afternoon’s meeting of the board of
county commissioners, this was made
known by a committee of three real
estate men consisting of Fred C. Pabst,
John Hanna and P. J. Bellew.
. Mr. Pabst acted as spokesman for
the committee and stated that a month
ago a committee of rear estate men had
inspected the work and that it had
been again inspected today, only to find
that scarcely any work had been done.
It was pointed out that the completion
of the seawall was a matter of vital
importance to the city, especially since
the two oil concerns had filled a large
area along the channel and constructed
tanks thereon. He expressed the be-
lief that incalculable damage would be
done this property in the event a high
tide swept across the unprotected flats,
and that in addition to this damage
to private property, there was a dan-
ger that this sand filling would be
washed into the channel, interfering
with the shipping of the port and en-
tailing a heavy expense on the national
government in cleaning out the chan-
nel. More than a million and a quarter
cubic yards of filling, said he, had been
placed in the area referred to and which
had largely been done under the as-
surance that the seawall would be
pushed rapidly to completion and thus
furnish protection to the land behind it.
The real estate men for themselves
and for numerous citizens asked that
the county board at once take up the
matter with the federal engineer with
a view of having the seawall construc-
tion expedited. In the absence of any
known reason for the delay, the non-
completion of the work appeared inex-
cusable. The committee stated that
the people looked to the county com-
missioners to exert themselves in hav-.
ing the work more earnestly prosecut-
ed.
Mr. Bellew added that it was under-
stood that when the county entered
into agremeent with the national gov-
ernment to do this work jointly, it
bound both parties to active prosecu-
tion of the work. The county’s portion
was now completed and it was incum-
bent upon the government to do its
part in meeting the terms of the agree-
ment.
HAD DISCUSSED MATTER.
County Judge McCracken' replied to
the committee that the entire board
had called upon the federal engineer
in charge of the work about a month
ago and urged more rapid prosecution
of the seawall work; for some three
hours they had discussed various fea-
tures of the task, urging that more
activity be shown. The assurance was
given that everything possible was be-
ing done to expedite the work; that the
inability of the government to secure
workmen was one serious obstacle; that
• the filling of the Atlantic hole was an-
other; that the scarcity of lumber was
a third reason. In answer to a sug-
gestion that a high tide would destroy
the property of the Gulf Refining Com-
pany and the Mexican Petroleum Cor-
poration, the engineer had replied that
he did not anticipate the danger sug-
gested, but if this was feared, the plac-
ing of sand bags about the property
would be sufficinet to prevent any

Washington, March, 10.—National
prohibition is clearing jails, boosting
production and increasing thrift
throughout the country, according to
informal reports to the government,
Daniel C. Roper, internal revenue com-
missioner, who is charged with re-
sponsibility of enforcing prohibition,
said.
These apparent economic benefits are
converting many “ex-wets” to the
“dry” cause, according to Commissioner
Kramer.
“Dry” leaders cited the statements of
Roper and Kramer as proof that the
nation is not blacksliding in enforcing
the resolution to be completely “dry.”
“WETS” SEE CHANGING SENTIMENT
“Wet” leaders, however, charge that
public sentiment is changing. For
proof they point to developments of
the past weeks, some of which are:
■ Wet voters won 195 towns in local
option elections in Vermont and ninety-
three in Massachusetts.
A law legalizing the sale of beer
has been passed in New Jersey, where
the legal alcoholic content was in-
creased to 3.5 per cent.
Federal prohibition officials were en-
joined from interfering with manufac-
ture of 2.5 per cent beer in Wisconsin
by a Milwaukee federal judge.

fight for a higher birthrate has been

wash. It was also stated by the en-
gineer that even if the seawall was
hurried to completion, the present ap-
propriation would not be sufficient to
complete the structure to the south jet-
ty; that there would still remain a gap
of some 200 feet. The aid of the county
board and the citizens of Galveston
was asked toward securing an appro-
priation for this gap.
Commissioner Boddeker thought the
board should again visit the end of
the seawall in order to note what
progress had been made since the visit
made a month ago, it was agreed
to make this trip of inpsection after
the adjournment of the meeting.
COUNTY CAN’T COMPLY,
County Attorney Theobald reported
that he could find no authority for com-
plying with the request of the Fair-
view Cemetery association at League
City for furnishing and placing shell
on the roadway through that property.
As to the complaint that garbage had
been ‘dumped in the ditch near the
cemetery, he suggested that this had
probably been done through ignorance
and that a sign forbidding the prac-
tice would probably cure the complaint.
On motion of Commissioner Stoner, the
sign was ordered erected.
The county attorney also reported as
to the claim of E. E. Lowe of Hous-
ton, who asked payment of damages
to his automobile, claimed to have been
done through negligence of a driver of
one of the county trucks; that so far
as could be ascertained the driver was
not at fault, and that under the law
no claim could be made against the
county. This report was adopted and
the clerk instructed to send the claim-
ant a copy of the finding of the county
attorney.
BIDS FOR BONDS.
A number of bids to sell county bonds
to the county were presented by County
Auditor Murch and referred to the
finance committee and the county au-
ditor for recommendation.
The matter of dipping vats at San
Leon and Friendswood again came up
Referendums have been invoked in
thirteen states to disapprove the ac-
tion of the legislatures in ratifying
the national prohibition amendment.
NOT COMPLETELY RECONCILED,
HOWEVER.
Despite these events, it is as yet too
soon to presume that public sentiment
has crystallized toward prohibition, ac-
ocrding to Commissioner Roper.
“But many things are occurring,”
Roper said, “which may be regarded
as symptoms, so to speak, of the atti-
tude of the people. The internal rev-
enue bureau has received, unsolicited,
scores of letters and reports from in-
dividuals indicating that prohibition
is working out satisfactorily in their
communities.”
In some localities, police officials
are accredited with the statement that
crime has diminished.
Much has been said of the expense of
enforcing prohibition. So far as the
experience of the internal revenue bu-
reau thus far is concerned, the predic-
tion of a heavy tax burden does not
seem justified.
. Judicial decisions unfavorable to pro-
hibition are not alarming, nor do they
show any public sentiment against pro- •
hibition, according to Wayne Wheeler, !
counsel of the AntiSaloon League.
“When any law is passed against an |
intrenched evil,” Wheeler said, “the !
first decisions are usually unfavorable
because opponents of the law choose
their courts in bringing injunction and
mandamus suits.”
: ment stores expect to install smoking
rooms for women. Apparently every
store owners is waiting for others to
take the lead.
Many of the little beauty shops
along the avenue have ash trays and
match boxes scattered about the place,
but there are still a few women in
New York who object to being seen in
public while smoking, hence the lim-
ousine smoking car.
There is one little shop on Forty-sec-
ond street, just east of Fifth Avenue,
whose owner says he sells scores of
fancy cigarette holders to women each
day. Formerly, he says, women used
the straight stemmed holder. But that
was unwieldly for women, so the
smoking ring was presented.
The latest smoking rings come in
almost unlimited variety of designs,
and most of them are made to order.
But the principle is the same, whether
it is made uptown or downtown.
RINGS EXPENSIVELY MADE.
Usually they are of gold or platinum
and are worn on the little finger. A
short, perpendicular bar is attached
with an oval or round ring on the
known as a strong friend of large fam-
ilies. Three others of the new cabi-
net are advocates of measures to in-
crease the French birthratt.
War cost France roughly 1,500,000
lives. A low birthrate, during the war
years, cost France 1,272,735 loss of pop-
ulation. These statistics, made into
striking pictures to illuistrate their ef-
fect on the nation, industry and war-
danger, are being used in a vigorous
campaign by the National Alliance, for
the increase of the French population.
This campaign is being conducted by
letters to members of parliament, post-
ers, a magazine, The Woman and the
Child, and through the many socially
and politically powerful persons inter-
ested in the movement.
The plainest sorts of truths are told
the French about the decreasing birth-
rate. The National Alliance and gov-
ernment officials hold that a family
should have three or more children. To
encourage such families government
allowances of 60 to 200 francs a year
are granted for each child .after the
second under 13 years. The alliance
asks also for legislation to provide for
the construction of cheap attractive
homes available only to large families,
establishment of “supersalaries” in in-
dustries to heads of such families, pref-
erence in government employment, the
plural vote, giving the father as many
votes as there are persons in the fam-
ily, and real war, on “birth control,"
known here as neomalthusianism.
