BQSCHEE'S SYRUP
Why use crtlinnry cough retried leu
when Iiosehee's Syrup has been used
so successfully for fifty-one years in
al! parts of the United States for
«oughs, bronchitis, colds settled in the
throat, especially lnng troubles? It
gives tlie patient n good night's rest,
i'ree from coughing, with easy expec-
toration in the morning, gives nature
a chance lo soothe the Inflamed parts,
throw off the disease, helping the pa-
tient to regain his health. Made in
America and sold for more than half
a century.—Adv.
Short of Help.
It seemed (hat when Itastus and
Sam died they took different routes;
so when the latter gf>t to heaven lie
called Kastus on the phone.
"Kastus," lie said, "how yo' like it
down thnr?"
"Oh, boy! Dis here am some place,"
replied liustus. "All we has ter do Is
lo wear a red suit wid horns, an1 ebery
now an' then shovel some eoal .011 de
fire. We don't work 110 more dan two
liours out ob de twenty-four down
here. Hut tell me, Sam, how Is it with
you up yonder?"
"Mah.goodness! We has to git up at
fo' o'clock in the niawnln' an' gathah
lu de stahs; den we has to haul in de
moon and hang out de sun. Den we has
ter roll de clouds aroun' all day long."
"But, Sam, how come it y' has ter
■work so hard?"
"Well, to tell the truf, Rastus, we's
kin' o' short on help up here."
The Early Mistake.
"Didn't Eve ask Adam to eat the
apple, thereby bringing sorrow to the
human race?"
"Yes," said the woman with snappy
eyes. "And I'll bet ninny's the time
Eve wished that instead of inviting
him to have something to eat she had
asked him to carry In wood or mend
the roof or something he'd be sure to
refuse."
KEEP IT HANDY
If you paid a specialist $25.00 for a
prescription, you would not get any-
thing that would give quicker relief
for Croup, Catarrh, Colds, or Sore
Throat, than VAGUER BALM, which
only costs 25c In Jars, or tubes.

AMENDMENT TO P!KK BOLL
WORM LAW RECOMMENDED
Governor Says Congress Appropriates
Money and State Must Act Prompt-
ly to Complete This Work.
Austin, Tex.—In a special message
to the legislature Wednesday Govern-
or Hobby recommended an amend-
ment to the pink boll worm lnw so as
to be able to withdraw noncotton zone
proclamations and issue proclamations
regulating cotton growing in described
zones.
After reviewing the pink boll worm
invasion of certain parts of Texas, the
efficacy of the law and what was ac-
complished thereunder, the governor's
message concludes:
"It is the judgment of the commis-
sioner of agiiculture and the entomo-
logists of his department, as also the
opinion of the entomologists of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, that it would bo unwise to re-
lease this territory from all super-
vision. The commissioner recommends
that the law be so amended and its
provisions so modified as to provide
tor the creation by proclamation by
the governor of a regulated zone in
which such reasonable measure of su-
pervision may be exercised ns to en-
able the state department of agricul-
ture to detect promptly any n6w out-
break of the worm, making it possible
to prohibit or supervise the growing
of cotton in an affected zone, instead
of giving power to prohibit it only.
"I fully concur In this proposed
amendment, and inasmuch as the time
will soon be here when planting will
begin, I am presenting the subject of
amending the present pink boll worm
act to the legislature with the recom-
mendation that prompt consideration
be given and that such action be taken
as will authorize me to withdraw the
present noncotton proclamation and
issue a proclamation providing for a
regulated zone in which cotton may
be grown under such general rules as
may be deemed essential by the com-
missioner of agriculture to the protec-
tion of the cotton industry of the re-
mainder of the state and that of other
cotton-growing states.
"It would have been impossible to
have done so much and effective work
in oradicating the pink boll worm had
not congress appropriated a large sum
of money for such purpose. After the
initial appropriation by congress for
such purposes as the pink boll worm,
It is the usual custom to conflno
their appropriation to a fifty-fifty
hasis with the state—e. g., citrus cank-
er. Slight infections having been
tound this season in other parts of the
state, I suggest that you make ample
appropriation for completing this very
Important work."
Governor Signs Suffrage Resolution.
Austin, Tex.—The signing of the
full suffrage joint resolution by the
governor in the senate chamber Wed-
nesday was made an occasion for an
impressive ceremony. The governor
signed the resolution at the speaker's
desk, using two gold pens, which, by
amended resolution of Senator Smith,
were presented to Mrs. Minnie Fisher
Cunningham and Mrs. Nora Boren Ma-
honey. Ranged on the platform were
the president of the senate, Senators
Smith, McNealus, Dean, Dudley, Buch-
anan of Bell, Mrs. Cunningham, Mr.
and Mrs. T. A. Coleman of San An-
tonio, Mrs. D. H. Doom of Austin and
Mrs. E. H, League of Galveston.
The governor made no speech, mere-
ly stating that he was delighted to af-
fix his signature to the document. A
photographer came into the chamber
and made a picture of the group. The
equal suffrage amendment is to be
submitted May 24.
All Will Have Jobs.
Washington.—"Every soldier who
put on the uniform of the United
States, who fought or trained to fight,
will have a job if he wants one," Sec-
retary Baker declared Wednesday in
delivering the opening address at the
fourteenth annual convention of the
national rivers and harbors congress.
Mexican Export Tax on Cotton.
Calexico, Cai.—President Carranza
of Mexico Thursday sent a telegram
to Governor Estaban Cantu of Lower
California at Mexicall, Mexico, inform-
ing htm that the cotton export tax of
$30 a bale, recently established, bad
