OPINION IN LANDRY CASE.
Altomey dcncral Holds Concern
Not a Business, hut a laborer.
Austin. Tex., Oct. 5. - Resnhdions
adopted by the Texas I-aundryuieu's
Association dealing with the question
of compensation for personal service or
personal lals»r, and not being restric-
tions in pursuit of business author iced
by law, are not prohibited by the anti
trust statutes of Texas.
Such is the gist of an opinion given
by the Attorney deneral's department
yesterday to Eugene Cherry of Sher-
man, president of the Lfuindrymen'a
Association. The opinion was prepared
by Assistant Attorney General
Sweeten.
It also was held that a laundry is
not engaged in trade or commerce, nor
does it sell or exchange articles of raer
chundisc and commodities, m>r Is it
.manufacturer. Its business is that of
performing service for hire. It is
laborer. The opinion says:
“Our anti trust laws do not prohibit
combinations affecting personal i-
vice or i<ersonal la Ivor unless such com-
binations restrict the pursuit of a bus-
iness authorized by law,”
CLEAR BAH SKfN FROM WITHIN
Pimply, muddy complexions are due
to impurities in the blood. Clear up
the skin by taking. Mr. King's New
Life Pills. Their mild laxative qual
ities remove the poisons from the sys-
tem and brighten the eye. A full, free
non griping bowel movement in the
morning Is the reward of a dose of
Ur. King's New Life Pills the night

WAS CLEOPATRA UGLY?
Of muck raking there is no end.
Now the numismatists of the country
who are in convention at Baltimore
are seeking to impugn the beauty of
Cleopatra and they |>oint to her por-
trait on coins as proving that the
Queen who ensnared Caesar and An-
thony had big ears, small eyes and a
scrawny neck. Would the fair auto-
eraf of Egypt have allowed her ovin
coinage to malign her (charms?
Clearly the numismatists are not 1.00
per rent chivalrle. But as against Ibis
evidence there is a silver coin minted
Antioch and showing the bust or
Cloopara on the obverse side and that
of Mark Antony- on the reverse, which
gives the queen a neck by no means
scrawny, full eyes, and a chin sug-
gestive of that of our own Goddess of
Liliert.v, though lacking the graceful
curve. The ears are invisible as those
of a modern New York girl, and only
the nose Invites crieism. It is quite
long enough to disprove rascal’s say
tug that if it had been shorter It would
have ehauged the whole face of the
world.
The Antioch coin rails the Queen “A
later goddess.” Was (lie coiner a cour-
tier, and did the official coinage more
truly depict her In the Cromwell way,
with all the warts On?” It is more
satisfactory in put the blame on rude
workmanship, if Cleopatra's charms
did not "beggar description," they must
have Jiml some potency to make the
slaves thhy did.
Who will Ik* left to us in the world's
gallery ofNhe great and beautiful in
history if modem detractors of the
famous dead are always to have their
way? St. Isaiis Post-Dispatch.

FOOTBALL GAME SATURDAY.
Bonham High School Coming Here I*
Play Sherman High.
Prpiwratory to the ope mug game of
the season here next Saturday, the
last day of the Red River Valley
Fair, between Sherman high school
and. Bonham high schdol, the Shcrmill
High School Athletic association hits
liceii organized and season tickets
good for all athletic events during
Ihe school year of 1916-1917 put (Hi
sale. These tickets will sell fort Jfc,
bringing the price of admission to
each event to a minimum and at the
same time providing the necessary fi-
nancial snp|K>rt for high school ath-
letics. %
The reputation of Sherman high
for cbautplonsliip athletic teams' has
been well established by their per-
formance In imst years. Out of ten
games played last year by the football
team, with the strongest elevens in
tile stHte, Sherman High school won
nine and tier one. establishing a claim
to the state championship which was
uever disproved.
An unusually good game is looked
for in the opening contest Saturday
with Bonham high. After a steady
practice grind lasting since the middle
of September, Poach K. M. Carter an-
nounces that the Sherman squad is In
perfect condition. Additional strength
lias been added to the team this year
by the addition of Carvln Evans, a
high school boy of Colorado, who es-
tablished an enviable reputation for
himself as a quarterback in his own
state. Uebnar t'obh, who played hi
(lie hackfioid of last year's winning ag-
gregation and who was picked by ex-
perts -as probably the most formidable
high school player hi the state on of-
fensive play, will la* seen in Satur-
day's game. Higginbotham of Howe,
a brother to the Higginbotham who
played with A. & M. of Texas and
also connected with (lie local baseball
team in the Western association;
Graham Pierce, a star player with
Gainesville high last year are among
the new men showing up imrticular-
ly well. Of last year’s men there are
Cal ls, Blades.- Emmett, Frank and
Bryan Wendt, Touchstone, Jones.
Roy Notes, a new lineman, is also
showing up welt: Frank Wendt is
captain of Hie team and is also presi-
dent of the athletic association, hav-
ing been elected by the unanimous
vote of the student laxly.
AH reports from Bonham High say
that they are greatly strengthened this
year and will go Into Saturday’s
game with the expectation of winning.
The Bonham eleven has a reputation
for putting up a hard fight, *even
when outclassed and they are also
known for the clean brand of foot-
ball which they play at all times.
This game will lie the feature ath-
letic event of the Red River Valley
Fair, having been especially scared
for the closing day.
FORGET YOUR ACHES.

ATHLETIC GAMES DURING
1916 STATE FAIR SPLENDID
It la announced
by J. J. Eekford,
who la director in
charge of the ath-
letics division of
the State Fair of
Texas, that many
important cham-
pionship games
have been arrang-
ed to be held at
the State Fait
this year. These
gamps, principal,

contested by
teams represent

Hi* Geniu* Enabled Him t* Turn Bad
Part* Into Good On**.
We were to open a new theater in
Panton street, which wa* not ready, so
we were transferred to the Royalty.
Mansfield was a yonng man then,
about twenty-four, I should say. He
wa* practically unknown. He soon
began to shine at rehearsal. Hia part
was that of an old bean. J. O. Taylor
waa to play a certain Walter. The play
was an adaptation from the French.
Farnie was the adapter, with no pride
of authorship, ao be allowed Mansfield
a good deal of liberty In the way of in-
terpolation and business. Day by day
the part of the old beau waa built up.
especially in Taylor’s scenes, until
Mansfield's part assumed the propor-
tions of a leading character and Tay-
lor’s part, which was the principal
comedy part of the play, faded away
Into the background. We all began to
take notice of Mansfield and to per-
ceive that his character was going to
be the part of the play.
On? day Taylor rebelled. He told
Farnie and Alexander Henderson, the
manager of the theater, that be was
the leading comedian of the company
and that Mansfield's character bad
now become the most Important per-
sonage In the comedy. He protested
violently. Farnie was in a dilemma.
Mansfield's business and additions
were so clever and ao valuable that he
deserved the prominence accorded to
him. Taylor was an important actor
and could not be dispensed with.
Mansfield came forward. “Would
Mr. Taylor like my part?” he said.
Taylor felt that, aa the principal
comedian, the best part belonged prop-
erly to him. He ought to have Mans-
field’s part
Mansfield handed it to him. “By alt
means." said be. "Here it Is,’’ and be
banded over the manuscript covered
with interpolations, corrections and
business.
We resumed onr rehearsals.
“You will allow me,” said Mansfield
to Farnie—“you will allow me the
same privilege with this new part you
were so generous as to accord me with
the qther? Air. Taylor has the advan-
tage of my suggestions on the other
character; you will permit me to do my
best with this?”
“By all means,” said Farnie, and to
work we went again.
Mansfield built up again. Day by
day, little by little, his new part ab-
sorbed scene after scene.—E. H. Soth-
era In Scribner’s.

Mads a Costly Mistak*.
A big commercial house In the mid-
dle west raised the salary of one of Its
officers to $40,000 a year.
The officer was greatly pleased.
“Now my amblUon Is satisfied,” he
said.
Within two years the concern bad
found a way to dispense with this of-
ficer’s sendees. It was done cleverly
and smoothly. The man never suspect-
ed the real reason why he was released.
The head of the concern had over-
heurd his remark. “We want no men
in this business whose ambition is sat
isfied," he said. “When a man is satis
fled, when he ceases to plan and fight
for the future, we begin to lose money
on him.”—Woman’s Home Companion.
Why 8he Made No Outcry.
“You say,” said the lawyer, “you
heard this man break into your house
in the dead of night, and yet you made
no effort to call for help.”
“That is so."
“Were you too frightened to call
out?”
“No. I was not disturbed a particle.
He bumped Into the rocker of a chair
and swore, so I thought it was my hus-
band.”—Detroit Free Press.
The Cheerful Face.
Do not be grumpy In your own home.
Some folks save all their smiles for
company or special occasions. It Is far
more necessary to happiness to be
cheerful In your own home and with
your own family. If the home is hap.
py one can bear rudeness met else-
where, If the home Is happy the hap-
piness will radiate among neighbors
and friends.—Milwaukee Journal.
