But despite this paucity of citizens and absence of buildings Lofton ap- pears on all good Texas maps, 1s on a good railroad, has a first-class high- way at its front door and is distin- guished by a grassy lawn that covers the whole town. The town, in fact, is one of those lost hopes that sometimes spring from the coming of a railroad. The ground was laid off as a townsite, but the town never materialized. That was 13 years ago. The railroad was built. the highway was constructed, the town was named, but nobody settled there except the beautifully striped cat. This animal has been there so long that he is accepted as an insti- tution and remains a solitary ruler of his domain. Yodling Lost Art in Switzerland Mountains Lucerne—VYodling is a lost art in Switzerland. Shepherds and farm hands look askance at American tour- ists who ask them to yodle., A party of tourists visiting Switzerland re- peatedly asked natives for a yodle or two. None responded. They all looked puzzled. Suddenly, just around a bend on the main road, came the thrilling notes of a perfect yodle and the vis- itors hurried to get a glimpse of the ‘erformer. He proved to be a lusty \merean tourist. Ee short distance east of Mt. Joy, in Rapho township, live stock, ments, ete., by Frank, auct. Springs, large lot of live stock and farming slow.

REEDER More about Germs: —Because he is a most interesting writer and states facts in a clear and convine- manner I am going to quote more from Dr. George Starr White's ex- cellent book on “Un-health.” dolph Virchow, the famous German scientist, that germs do not cause any un-health, but are the result of that un-health, I am often asked what causes this prove this and that in all manners of un-health. My reply is to the effect that in Nature there are many things that we do not under- stand, butrthat is no reason why we should say we do not understand any of Nature’s Laws. I do not pretend to be clearly explain the cause of mal-condition but I cannot believe that germs cause able to A : any un-healthy ersony al est: Mary oi Lersonville, yeu] wg by Mary D condition of themselves alone. I : ack think there are certain definite reasons for all un-healthy condi- tions.

The whole “scientifically-recog- nized’ system of treating un-healtt Nature is not at fault because we starve our bodies from natura’ food, sunlight and air. Nature is not thoughtless because we live in big cities, Nature should not be blamed because scores of families occupy the same apartment house and have to go up and down stairs Nature does not polute our air with motor-gas or distract our nerves with awful brain-ranking noises Nature does not prevent our thoughts or give us “yellow-journ- alism.” Al] this is Un-Natural and our fault—the fault of so-called civilization.” As long as we seem to be obliged to endure these Un-Natural condi- tions, we must plan a system of pro- cedure that will give us the most health possible under these Un- Natural conditions. With the belief that congestion and inuammation are the prim causes of all un-health, I shall dis- cuss health first by discussing Alim- entation, or errors in Alimentation.” —— CR A bank which was closed by the courts in 1901 will make a further payment to depositors, which will raise the total they have received to 114 per cent, with more to come Too much investment in wildcat of’ wells and Florida orange groves was given as the reason for closing but the wells and orange groves paid, and the depositors have been receiving payments over a period of twenty-five years.
