Dwight A. Meade, the young artistic
actor who won the admiration of the
theatre-goers of this city last season
by his wonderful interpretation of
’ Bates," the butler, in “A House of a
Thousand Candles," ’-will soon visit

The vehicle which Mr. Meade has
chosen is the Hoyt comedy, “A Bach-

critics to be the greatest of laugh
plays, and its successful run of two
hundred nights at the Madison Square
The high price of cotton the past

There’s no doubeabout it. Texas one
of these days is gqing to be-the most
populous of all the states. Immigra-
tion is pouring in with ever-increaairig
volume. Thq wastq lands are coining
into cultivation, and villages are
growing into cities. It is a slow town
indeed that will not naturally grow
under such conditions. How much
faster will be the growth of "-that
town that tries to grow. East Texas
is coming to be recognized as the best
part of Texas.

— Giladn and Bradfield, the producers,

pieces of scenic art, the costuming
beautiful, and with Dwight A. Meade

Governor Colquitt recommends the
repeal of the automatic tax law, apd a
hill has accordingly been introduced
in the legislature to have it repealed.
Tn the opinion ot the Herald the Au-
tomatic tax law is one ofi the bast
^easures created by the CaVpbeli ad-
\ ministration. It has "proven to.be a
practical solution of a most difficult
s problem. Not only that, but the state
taxes have been reduced through its
operation to an extent that was grat-
. ifying to the past administration, and
to the people who have borne the bur-
den of taxation.
» The automatic tax law in its work-
ing is a safeguard against extrava-
gance, because extravagance, increase
■y in appropriations, expenditures,, etc.,
is reflected in a high tax. An eco-
nomical administration is likewise re-
flected in a low tax. Under its work-
ing the tax-payer w-ould naturally-wapt
to know the cause when the tax rate
was run ui».
And here is where ■ the new gover-
nor would Jike to get off. He wants
to side-step responsibility by having
the law repealed. He does not want
to be blamed for extravagancies in ap-
, propriations, etc. He had rather
have the law repealed, and charge it
to the Campbell administration that it
plunged the state Into debt,* necessi-1
tating an increase'in taxation

They are interested iri having the few

ing the burden of taxation shifted
back to the shoulders of the "com-

This matter of taxation is a big
governmental problem—too big for lip
tie men to monkey^with.
Gornbined with .whole wheat
and barley in such a way that
it is partly, digested before
being eaten.
The diastase in the barley,
in the presence of heat and
moisture, changes the more or
less indigestible starch part of
the grain into an easily di-
gested form of sugar—just as
the organs of the body change
it if they operate properly.
Thus the expert solved the
problem of perfect digestion
