bowels. Kenedy's Laxative Cough
Syrup acts gently yet promptly on the
bowels and allays Inflammation at
the same time. It is pleasant to take
and it is especialty recommended for
children, as it tastes nearly as good

ternoon reads: Society in Mas-
sachusetts, Mrs. A. D. Potts,
Mrs. J. J. Thompson, Mrs. J. Z.

nent of Bell county's pioneer

of the prominent physicians and
surgeons of East Texas in which
Nacogdoches is located.

The U. D. C. met in historical
session on Saturday afternoon at
the attractive home of Mrs. Joel

interest.

the door by the reception comit-
tee consisting of Roy Jacobs,
RomeLusk, Luther Hill, C. B.
Elliott and Chas. DuBose. After
having a good, sociable time, sum-
mons were received from below
and all filed down to the base-
ment where the banquet was to
be served. The table was in the
shape of Boman mensa, and
looked very attractive with its
white linen and shining silver.
After every one was through
eating, the table was cleared and
some very appropriate toasts were
responded to. And thus the
evening passed off in a most en-
joyable manner.

DEATH LIST NOV
ANNOUNCED AS 185
Cleveland, Ohio, March 5.—
According to the city authorities,
the total number of lives lost in
the frightful holocaust yesterday
was 185. These figures were
reached after careful count, and
recount of all those who are mis-
sing.
Of this number 110 bodies have
been identified and it is probable
that thirty of the bodies recover-
ed will never be identified, for the
reason they are burned1, and
crushed in a manner to destroy
all former features.
The Collinwood Board of Trade
met this morning and appropri-
ated §5,000 for the purpose of
raising a fund with which to bury
the dead. The town council was
called in session almost immedi-
ately after this action and an ad-
ditional $5,000 was voted for such
a fund*
Each body in the morgue is tag-
ged with a card giving all possible
details connected with its recov-
ery, so as to make the identifica-
tion as easy as possible.
%'he sigh of heart-broken moth-
ers and grief-stricken fathers go-
ing from body to body of those
yet unidentified in a hope ofbeing
able to ascertain if the ones they
lost are among the unknown dead
is heart-rendering.
The board of education, which
is conducting a searching inves-
tigation of the fire, as set has no
proof that the fire was of incen-
diary original. The flames were
first seen at the basement door.
At first architects scouted the
idea that the flaifaes crawled\ to
the front of the buildingfrom the
furnace. As yet this seems to
be the only theory which has a
semblance of reason behind it.
Mrs. Thomas Yarrell, Jr., has
returned from a visit to relatives
in Waco.
Mrs. J. Mayrant Smith of
Dallas is the guest of Mrs. J. F.
Elliott.
Mrs. Dan Crow is the guest of
relatives in Holland this week.

WALDO PONDRAY WARREN
TIME AND MONEY
MANY poreona are wy Inconsistent about the uee of
time, hurrying for a fow hour* and then wasting all
tbo time they have eaved by doing unnoceeeary and
value I ass things. Tho effort to eave a fow cento on the coot
of tho article hae coot many a person procloue tlmo that ought
to bo conoldered worth moro than tho oavlng.
A business man wrot* a letter to a manufacturer asking
to have an advertlaod devieo eent to him by mall, enclosing
hie chock, whloh Included twenty cento pootage. One of
tho young men In tho office eald to him:
"I think wo could oond out and find that at S hardware
store, and not havo to pay tho postage on It."'
Tho man replied: "I knew that but tho tlmo It would
take le worth moro than twonty cento."
Some pereone are keen to oeo tho twenty cento that
might be oavod, but fall to appreciate tho fact that It takes
tlmo to eave It. It Is oomotlnsee good Judgment to pay moro
and eave time. There are doubtleee thoee who. In tho
faoo of tho facts reduced to actual dollars and oonto, would
hold It good business to take the trouble to get the loweet

Night Service Reinstated.
E. R. Easton, local agent of the
Katy is in receipt of a telegram
from Supt. McDowell advising
that the night train service be-
tween Belton and Temple will be
resumed on Sunday, March
15th, which is next Sunday.
This is very gratifying news to
the people of Belton, and Mr.
Easton is to be congratulated on
his success in securing the rein,
statement of this service, as he
has been hard at work on the
matter since it was taken off.
Jndge W. R. Butler Announces.
The announcement of Judge
W. R. Butler for re-election to
the office of county judge appears
in this issue. The Judge has
been a faithful officer and his
friends believe that the county
affairs has been well cared for
during his administration as
county judge and still have faith
in his ability and diligence in the
in the performance of his duties
as county judge in case he is
re-elected. The Judge herein
asks the voters of Bell county to
examine his past record and if
it is in accord with their wishes
fte would like to have their sup-
port again to the office he seeks
and in case he isre-elected his
best efforts will be put forth as
he has tried to do formerly, to
give satisfaction to his constitu-
ents.
Belton Drug

Salting the Herds.
The requirement that all cat-
tle, horses and sheep grazing un-
der permit on the National
Forests be given salt at irequent
intervals is a regulation which
lias been found to go a long way
in protecting the range and con-
serving the forage crop.
Experience has shown that the
want of salt makes stock restless.
If cattle and horses are not sup--
plied as they need it, they roam
and wonder, hunting old salting
grounds used previous seasons,
tramping the forage plants in-
stead of eating them, pawing the
ground, and in other ways injur-
ing the range. But if their crav-
ings are supplied, they scatter
peacefully over the pasture
grounds and feed at their leisure.
Salt is so necessary to the easy
and profitable handling of sheep
on the range, that no flockmaster
would think of getting a'ong with-
out it. If sheep do not receive
their usual supply it is only with
great difficulty that they can be
held in bonds or kept in camp at
night. So far as sheep are con-
cerned, no regulation by law is
realy necessary, because the
owners, for their own conveni-
ence, will salt their flocks. But
cattle are not herded, and the
owners might neglect to salt
them, if the regulations were not
strictly enforced.
Stock on different ranges re-
quire varying quantities of salt.
Sheep need less on dry range
than on green. An average quan-
tity for 1000 head of sheep would
be from 1000 to 1500 pounds each
year. For a like number of cat-
tle, from 5000 to 10000 pounds a
year is required. Horses need
less than cattle.
Old hunters, in the days of the
pioneers, knew that deer and
buffalo traveled long distances to
lick salt in saline springs. The
Blue Licks on Licking River, in
West Varginia, were famous for
the herds of deer, buffalo and elk
which frequented them. The ad-
jacent ground was so deeply
tramped that the marks were to
be seen many years after the
places ceased to i be visited by
these animals.
Dr. Fraxier Complimented.
Dr. J. M. Frazier left last night
for San Antoiyo, where he will
address a convention of medicos.
This convention is composed of
several district associations and
is a very important meeting.
Prominent physicians from all
parts of the United States will
be in attendance, among whom
will be the noted Chicago physi-
cian and surgeon, Dr. John B.
Murphy. Dr. Frazier attends
and delivers the address by
special rqq uest, which is a dis-
tinct compliment considering the
fact tnat he is not a member of
any of the associations which
meet there at this time. Dr.
Frazier was on the program of
the Central Texas Medical Asso-
ciation which met at Waco a few
weeks ago,and his address at that
meeting gained for himself and
Belton considerable notoriety,
being published in several of the
leading medical magazines
throughout the county. He will
address the San Antonio meeting
today (Thursday) and return
home Friday or Saturday.
