BONHAM DAILY FAVORITE
Yes,
brown
and tender, too
Listen to these real fried potatoes
Of course, when you
fry potatoes you want
them brown. Unless a
fried potato is brown it
isn’t a fried potato at all.
Have you ever seen
and tasted potatoes
fried with Cottolene?
If not, you owe your-
self something. Cotrto-
lene quickly brings
potatoes to a nice brown
—quicker than you ever
saw potatoes browned
before.
The result is a nice,
tender, mealy inside —
and a delicious flavor,
too.
Why don’t you get a
tin of Cottolene and en-
joy real fried potatoes
tomorrow?
The same tin of Cot-
tolene will make delici-
ous biscuits for you, too,
and hot bread — and
cake of all kinds. It may
surprise you to hear
that you can make cake
without butter, but you
can—delicious cake, too.
Wholesome Cottolene
takes the place of butter
in cake-making.
And you will notice
that whatever you cook
browns quickly. Your
biscuit, for instance, will
quickly get a nice crisp,
brown crust—so will your
cakes, cookies, waffles
and muffins-r-just like
your fried potatoes.

Yes! Cottolene is also superior for
shortening and for all cake-making

UGH! CALOMEL MAKES YOU SICK.
> DON’T STAY BILIOUS, CONSTIPATED
“Dodson’s Liver Tone” Will Clean Your
Sluggish Liver Better Than Calomel
and Can Not Salivate.
'Calomel makes you sick; you lose a
clay’s work. Calomel,, is quicksilver and
it salivates; calomel injures your liver.
If you are bilious; feel lazy, sluggish
*nd all knocked out, if your bowels are
•constipated and your head aches or
stomach is sour, just take a spoonful of
harmless Dodson’s Liver Tone instead
■of using sickening, salivating calomel.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is real liver medi-
cine. You’ll know it next morning be-
cause you wijl wake up feeling fine,
your liver will be working, your head-
ache and dizziness gone, your stomach
will be sweet and bowels regular. You
will feel like working. You’ll be cheer-
ful; full of energy, vigor and ambition.
Your druggist or dealer sells you a
50 cent bottle of Dodson’s Liver Tone
under my personal guarantee that it
will clean your sluggish liver better than
nasty calomel; it won’t make you sick
and you can eat anything you want
without being salivated. Your druggist
guarantees that each spoonful will start
your liver, clean your bowels and
straighten you up by morning or you
get your money hack. Children gladly
take Dodson’s Liver Tone because it is
pleasant tasting and doesn’t gripe or
cramp or make them sick.
I am selling millions of bottles of
Dodson’s Liver Tone to people who have
found that this pleasant, vegetable, liver
medicine takes the place of dangerous
calomel. Buy one bottle on my sound,
reliable guarantee. Ask your druggist

MOTHERHOOD
Brides of 35, 38 and even 40 are
becoming more numerous year by
year. Late or postponed marriage
is a serious handicap to motherhood
because of changes in the birth
canals. But the period may be
passed in safety if proper care and
attention is rendered.
“Mother’s Friend,” which is ap-
plied by the mother-to-be herself,
relieves the strain always experi-
enced when the abdomen expands,
“Mother’s Friend” has a softening,
penetrating effect. The breasts are
kept in good condition.
Thousands of women, who have
need “Mother’s Friend” during their
period of expectancy testify to its
beneficial effects and many refer
to its value in relieving the morn-
ing sickness so prevalent during
pregnancy.
Obtain a bottle from your drug-
gist today and begin its use imme-
diately.
A valuable book for expectant
mothers will be sent free. Send

ulator Company, Dept. J, 524

MILITARY TRAINING
MADE COMPULSORY
WHAT IT WOULD DO FOR THE
COUNTRY.—WHAT WOULD BE
REALIZED BY SAME.
Universal compulsory military train-
ing will make our people realize that
citizenship demands service.
It stands for the fact that service to
the country is not a voluntary thing
which we may give or withhold as we
may see fit, but that each of us owes
service to the state, in return for the
protection and all other benefits the
state has conferred upon us.
It will train us to think a little less
of what the country owes to us and a
little more of what we owe to the
country.
It will serve as nothing else could,
to unify and weld together into one
splendid whole of American life, the
different elements of our heterogen-
eous population.
It will develop and bring out just
those traits of discipline, steadiness,
respect for authority and law which,
whatever our other excellences may
be, are not the strong points in our
national character.
If our young men are taught to
stand straight and walk straight, it
will help them to think straight and
live* straight. '
Because I desire the highest welfare
of our young men, I believe in this
system of universal compulsory mili-
tary training; because it is thoroughly
democratic; because it puts all on one
common footing; because it will be a
great nation-wide training school in
character; because it will develop pa-
triotism in us; because it will make an
invasion of our country forever un-
likely; because it will tend to make our
young men better Americans, better
citizens and better Christians.'—Rev.
Wiliam T. Manning, D. D., 'Rector of
Trinity Parish, New York City.

THE SCHOOL NEWS
EROM OVER EANNIN
FANNIN COUNTY NORMAL WILL
HOLD ITS SESSION HERE,
COMMENCING JUNE 4.
The Fannin County Normal will
open on June 4th, 1917, in the Bonham
high school. All indications lead us
to believe that the attendance this
year will be larger than ever before.
It will be remembered that last year
the Fannin County Normal was the
largest county normal in the state of
Texas. Bonham is an ideal place for
a summer normal; the Bonham high
school building is one of the coolest
and best equipped buildings that can
be found anywhere in the state. The
people of Bonham are always ready to
welcome the teachers to the county
seat. They are especially proud of
the Fannin County Normal, and have
shown a deep interest in the success of
the normal in many ways. The Bon-
ham Board of Trade has already given
one hundred and seventy-five dollars
to help in financing the normal. Any
teacher who comes to Bonham can find
a good place to board, and any pros-
pective teacher, high school graduate
and young men and women, will re-
ceive the very best attention from the
normal faculty.
Work will be given in all subjects
leading to the certification of teachers.
The normal will last six weeks. The
last week will be given to examina-
tions.
Teachers who, have not yet secured
positions who attend the Bonham nor-
mal will have every opportunity to get
a school in their home county. The
county superintendent and normal
faculty will be glad to assist any
teacher who has not yet contracted
for a school.
Teachers Examinations.,
An examination will be held in the
court house at Bonham on the first
and second of June. Teachers will be
examined on all subjects which they
desire to take. Examinations covering
second grade, first grade and perman-
ent subjects, will be given on these
two days. Any information desired
may be obtained from the county sup-
erintendent^
Scholastic Census.
County Superintendent Frank Young
has completed his census rolls for
Fannin County. The census report
will show for the rural schools, eight
thousand six hundred and sixty-nine
children within the scholastic age. The
independent districts are given below
as follows:
'Ravenna 279, Leonard 408, Ector
185, Dodd City 213, Windom 247,
Trenton 228, Ladonia 315, Honey
Grove 838, Bonham 1,371.
All the independent districts run
about as they did last year, except
Bonham. Bonham lost nearly one
hundred scholastics.
Schools Close.
The Windom high school exercises
are said to have been the best this
year, as a whole, ever held at that
place.
A musical exercise was given last
Friday night, by the pupils of Miss
Lucille Moyer. A large crowd was
present and everybody well pleased
with the exercise of the occasion.
A class play, “The Kentucky Belle,”
was given on Saturday night, and the
diplomas were presented to the grad-
uates on Monday night. County Sup-
erintendent Frank Young gave the
class address and Prof. Spencer pre-
sented the diplomas. Eight young
ladies and two young gentlemen grad-
uated. Windom has had a very suc-
cessful school this year; the fact is,
Windom is on the mat) as a school
town. It is not too much to say that
Wnidom has the best school spirit to
be found almost anywhere in a town
of her size.
McCraws Chapel to Close.
McCraws Chapel school closes to-
morrow. This school received state
aid in the sum of $400 this year, and
is one of the rural schools to hold on
with the town schools. The Telephone
school will be the last rural school in
the cojnty to close, they have one
week of school yet.

THE LOST IS FOUND
IN A COW PASTURE
MOST OF THE PLUNDER TAKEN
BY THIEVES MONDAY LOCAT-
ED BY THREE BOYS.
Monday night thieves stole Jack
Russell’s bicycle from off his porch,
Dr. J. C. Crleton’s surgical outfit and
a kit of plumber tools from Messrs.
Blair and Shaw, who had been work-
ing on Charles Halsell’s house. The
officers diligently looked for the prop-
erty and the purloiners, but had failed
to locate either.
Three little boys found most of Dr.
Carleton’s belongings and most of the
plumber tools in a pasture south of
Pickens Rodgers’ house in the eastern
portion of the city yesterday evening.
Master Steve Robinson first made the
•discovery, and was aided in giving the
alarm by Masters Harry Morris 'Rob-
erts and Sam Roberts. These young-
sters knew exactly what to do, as
they got in touch with the officers, and
soon nearly everybody in the eastern
portion of the city was on the ground
to view the booty. The owners soon
arrived and claimed same, it being
turned, over to them by Deputy Sheriff
George Elam.
The night after the robberies it
rained. The various articles were per-
fectly dry, so the deduction was easy
to make that the thieves found they
had something on hand that would get
them caught, sooner or later, if it
was not turned loose, so they hit on
the plan of leaving the plunder in the
pasture, which must have been done
some time Wednesday night.
Jack Russell’s bicycle was not in
the list; neither were the two lan-
terns, as the thieves evidently thought
either would be hard to identify. Also
Dr. Carleton’s emergency kit was
missing, but he was lucky in getting
back a pair of eye glasses that he did
not know had been taken, and which
he said cost him $17.50.
This is about the most nondescript
batch of boodle ever corralled by
thieves in this city, and just why any-
body would be guilty of such thievery
is a little puzzling, inasmuch as there
are no “fences” here, to say nothing
of “hock-shops,” to take care of mis-
cellaneous stolen junk.

DEATH OF MRS. CARSON.
Mrs. Carson, wife of R. A. Carson
of the Carson community, died at her
home yesterday. The funeral took
place today, burial following at the
Gumm Springs graveyard. Mrs. Car-
son was a good woman. She and her
husband lived in Bonham for awhile
and made good citizens. Her demise
will be regretted more in the neigh-
borhood where she lived so long, but
there are many friends in this city
who will learn of her passing with
sorrow.
