The republican platform con-
demns the local option law enact-

plank is puerile from the fact
that the law is in line with the
principles of a republican form
of government. U is a sickly bid
for votes.

there was a shortage a number of

subscriptions but not enough

Farmers should consider well
beforo sending to Dallas, Chica-
go and other cities for goods.
The country is Hooded with cata-
logues bidding for mail orders.
The good«, as a rule, are shoddy
and do not(come up with the en-
ticing descriptions. Why not
trade with your home merchant
who helps to create a home mar-
ket for your products, pays taxes
in your mid t, who is always the
first oue called on to contribute
to building churches, school
houses and to aid in all the chari-
table moves in the community?
lie stands responsible for goods
dispensed, his investment is heavy
and profits slim. Often he is
called on to extend credit to pa-
trons. They should give him
preference over foreign competi-
tors. Stand by your home mer-
chants—be loyal to your own
community.

Their Boyhood Days Recalled.
P. R. Bomar, of New Hope,
and J. R. Herndoo, of the firm
of Stephens & Herndoo this city,
have just renewed their boyhood
acquaintanceship. Both were
reared in this county—the former
a few miles cast and the lattor a
few miles west of McKinnev.
Though both have made Collin
county continuously their home,
they had lost sight of each other
until yesterday when they met
and their identity became known.
They were great friend when boys
and ouce took an enjoyable trip
together through east Texas when
mere lads, accompanying their
fathers who went on business.
Many pleasing incidents and oc-
currences of forty years ago were
recalled by the two well known
citizens who are themselves now
getting to be old men.

A Remarkable Record
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
has a remarkable record. It has
been m use for over thirty years,
during which time many million
bottles have been sold and used.
It has long been the standard and
mam reliance in the treatment of
croup in thousands of homes, yet
during all this time no case has
ever been reported to the manu-
facturers in which it failed to ef-
fect a cure. When given as soon
as tho child becomes hoarse oi ev-
en as soon as the croupy cough
appears, it will prevent the attack
It is pleasant to take, many chil-
dren like it. It contains no opi-
um or other harmful substance
and may be given as confidently
to a baby as to an adult. For
sale by City Drug Store.

the difficulty Is kidney trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these important organa. This unpleasant
trouble Is due to a diseased condition of the
kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as
most people suppose.
