Octooer, as
mi
is aow equipped with three
horsepower motors, and easily
from the water and flies with
100 pounds of load in addition to
its own weight. However, it con-
sumes more fuel than the engin
rs estimated, and is now under-
going alterations that will correct
his to a certain extent. It is now
suggested that a shipjne stationed
a if way between the Azores Is-
lands and the starting point to re-
plenish the America’s fuel supply.
It is desired to be prepared for
any emergency that might arise,
and every precaution^ being taken
to make the trip successful.
The general depression in busi-
ness appears to extend over the
entire cotton belt, and then some,
farmers can’t sell their cotton, for
there is no 'market; merchants
are short of cash and are straining
their credit; banks are restricted
in their loans, and with the farm-
ers unable to get money to square
up with the merchants, it’s a hard
pr oposition all around. The Gov-
ernment can save the situation by
coming to our aid and advancing
; v £50 per baleton all cotton at a
. rate of interest. No one
bts but that conditions will
eventually become much better
than they have been, but now is
the time our farmers need help
Yes, the farmers generally ap-
ear to feel helped up over the re-
el good rains, and the opinion
is that in spite of boll weevils the
v ield will be increased, as many
dl bolls, otherwise of little val-
ue. will now mature fully.
The * scholastic apportionment
this year will be $8 per capita, an
increase of Si over last year. In
cidentally, with the increase in
the size of the Pearsall Independ
ent School District, we have add-
ed a goodly number of school
children to our rolls, and with the
increase in the apportionment at
least a thousand dollars will be
added to the school fund.
Have you noticed the absence
of flies and mosquitos this sum-
mer? Evidently our citizens have
learned their lesson and realize
that “a stitch in time” is by far
the best plan The absence of ty-
phoid and other fevers speaks for
the sanitary condition of Pearsall
as compared with a few years ago.
The Moore Model refers to the
war in Europe as a vaudeville
stunt. Not so, it’s a tragedy of
most tragic sort, and this is no
time to indulge in funnygraphs.

MRS. G. D. TAFOLLA.
Mrs G. D* Tafolla died at ber
home in Pearsall, Texas. August
8th, 1914. She suffered much
during her illness, but no mur-
mur or complaint ever came from
her lips. She always expressed
unbounded faith in the Lord. Her
bereft and devoted husband will
ever fondly cherish the memory
of a companion who was kipd and
devoted. She leaves twelve moth-
erless children to mourn her loss.
Her mother, sisters, and brothers,
were with her when the end came.
Funeral services were conducted
by Rev. P. G. Verduzco pastor of
the Mexican Methodist Church of
which deceased was a member.
The floral offerings were many
and very beautiful. Her remains
were followed to the grave by one
of the largest procession I ever
saw. She is not dead, but gone
over to that sweet home that ber
Christ went to prepare for her.
So, dear husband and children it
won’t he long until we meet her in
that home above. Be faithful un-
til death and he will give you the
crown of life. Rest mother, rest
from your toils4 and suffering, you
are free and happy now. We
would not bring you back to suf-
fer and to die again, but we will
come to you, where you are. and
see you some happy day, in the
sweet bye and bye.

Most people of sedentary occu-
pation as Editors, Bookkeepers,
office employees, stenographers
and others who spend their lives
indoors are more subject to the
ravages of malaria than those who
take a large amount of exercise
out of doors.
Mr. Shannon devotes much of
his time to writing and was a
great sufferer from bilious head-
aches until he took LIV-VER*
LAX.
On his own statement, this re-
nowned remedy cured him, just
as surely as it will cure you of i
Constipation or other malarial
Symptons.. These symptons are
the signals ahead of serious com-
plications if not eliminated.
There is no compromise with
malaria. You most get it or it
will get you. The ounce of pre-
vention in the form of LIV-VER-
LAX may save even your life
from Malaria, from which Dearly
every one in this climkte si
in a greater or less decree, de-
velops rapidly when it once gets
a hold on your system. Adv

ThisJs an absurd statement and
I usually eome8 from one who has
done nothing but “wait” and has
nothing to show for it. Have .von
a Will, or are you all Can’t? You
are a professional man, because
[you willed to be a professional
man. You are a business man
because willed to be such. Did
[you wait? surely these men have
waited, but the secret of their suc-
[cessisdueto the fact that they
[started.
Do you find many business or
I professional men who are renters?
No. Why? Because they have a
Will, and becaose they have the
I determination to start.
Do you find many wage,—caro-
lers who are renters? Yes. Why?
Because they have n^ver known a
plan like ours where they make a
[start and where the going is easy.

ing loan. Others profit by i t.
