i of the chief

offices. A number of bills have
been introduced in both houses,
about 398 in the house and 90 in
the senate, up to date, January
24. There has been two bills in-
troduced on the quarantine queM
tion, one by YV. J. Bryan, of
Taylor county, and one by Sen-
ator Grinnan, which promise, to
bring about a lively fight. Fo!-j
lowing is the substance of the j
Grinnan bill :
“That Article 5043k of the Re-1
vised Statutes of the State of j
Texas, be amended so as to here- I
after read as follows:
“Articfe 604.3k. Any quaran-
tine line that may be fixed by
the Live Stock Sanitary Commisr
sion against Texas, or splenot'c
I ver, shall be so fixed ns to Con-
form to the federal quarantine
line established, or that may 1 e
established, by the United States
department of agriculture.
‘said line shall not be co
or enforced so as to prevent the
owner of cattle, or live ftock,
from driving or transporting the
same to the home of such owner,
or to any place in this state, for
purpose of pasturing or watering
same; if such cattle are affected
with said disease, the owfter shall
so drive drive or transport same
as not to allow'them to come in
contact with other animals not so
affected.”
The Bryan bill provides for an
open season of 60 days, and the
piohibing- of stopping cattle after
they once have been inspected.
A strong fight will be made ly
the cattle barons against the pas-
sage of either bill. Our citizens I
should exercise the right of peti* BEST F&5§EN(lER StRVSQE
tion and ask both both branches
of the legislature for relief in this
matter.
The Ilogg amendments havfe
again been introduced in the
house by Representative Isaacs,
Which created quite a Surprise, as
they appeared without mourn-
ing.
A bill has been introduced in
the house which meets with much
favor among our solons, provid-

link in the chain of life.
A chain is > no stronger
than its weakest link,
the body no stronger
than its weakest organ.
If there is weakness of
heart or lungs, liver or
kidneys, there is a weak
link in the chain of life
which may snap at any
time. Often this so-
called "weakness” is
caused by lack of nutri-
tion, t#e result\>f disease
of the stomach and Other
organs of digestion and
nutrition. Diseases o f
the stomach and its allied
organs are cured by the
use of Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery.
When the diseased stom-
ach is cured, diseases of
other organs which seem
remote from the stomach
but which have their _
origin in a diseased condition of the
stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition, are cured also.
"I was in poor health when I commenced
taking Doctor Pierce’s medicines,” writes Mr.
Elmer Lawler, of Volga, Jefferson Co,, lud. "I
had stomach, kidney, heart, and lung troubles.
Was not able to do any work: I had a severe
cough and hemorrhage of the lungs, but after
using yonr medicine a while I commenced to
gain in strength and flesh, and stopped cough-
ing right away. Took about six bottles of
’ Golden Medical Discovery;’ I feel like a differ-
ent person. I gladly recommend yoor medicine
to all sufferers, for v know it cured me.”

will cure that foul breath.

one would have fecu it was out of the
question for her t > marry Squire Hard*
vion
withTft shrewd
eye for the main nance.
She was just is unselfish as a sun-
50JJuTirvfr Ttr ?r ttUFfirTOuTIe-'
lens us a violet uni eared nothing for the
position Squire Ilarding could offer his
wife. Sh« never knew what to soy to
him when he came to Clematis cottage;
as her home war called— wbh afraid of
Ms bass voice ami shy of bis facetlous-
nesa, and yet he none and came, and her
father encourage ! his suit, and-Gladys
Wns. told she imjsi agree to marry him.
Must, because business was dull, and
there was u mortgage on Clematis cot-
Chge, and there was no sense in a girl re-
fusing such a chance. Of course, she
would never have unother like it in d life-
time. \
She had no mother, but her brothers
protested, tclliug her that she was a
goose, and at Inst the poor girl was har-
assed into makiog a half promise that
“perhaps some time she would.”
But her father nt once set in motion
preparations for the weddiug and sent
for Ajint I’hffibe.
Aunt Phoebe was an uncommonly skill-
ful needlewoman, but, what was more in
Gladys' case, she was ft person with a
.heart.
One morning she went luto Gladys’
chamber and found the girl hastily put-
ting away a letter—ft letter postmarked
New York and directed to herself in the
boldest and handsomest of chirography.
Having put the letter under lock and
key, Gladys turned silently to be meas-
ured for a new embroidered waist.
“Are you tired, Gladys?” Aunt Phoebe
asked.
“A little,” replied the girl.
“Didn’t you rest well last night?”
“Not veryj’
“Gladys, you are my dear dead sister’s
child. Toll me what ails you.”
“Oh, auntie, my heart aches!”
And she put tier face on the broad, wo-
manly shoulder and burst into tears,
“There, there, dearie! I knew it was •
heart trouble. Tell a untie all about it.
I don’t believe you want to marry Squire
Harding.”
“I don’t—I don’t!” sobbed Gladys.
“Then you shan’t marry him! I’ll put
a stop to this work, surfl as my Mne is
Phflhbo Ray! *1.don’t know how Hw, but
I wilU”
One morning she presented herself at
Squire Harding’s door and was shown
into his private room where he received
his clients.
“Sit down, madam, sit down,” said the
squire.
“The subject of my call is my niece.”
“Ah!” ‘
“Yes. I suppose you will be deeply in-
terested in this?”
“Certainly, certainly! Anything which
concerns my pretty little Gladys! Ah,
that is an uncommon girl, Mrs. Ray—so
gentle, so’ fair, so healthy”— ’
“Ahem!” croaked Aunt Phoebe omi-
nously.
“Whaf, dear Mrs. Ray! Is not Gladys
well?"
“For from it!”
“You ama'/.e me! Has some outrageous
disease approached that lovely girl?”
Aunt Phoebe shook her head and sol-
emnly said;
“Chronic." ■
“What—what Is it?”
“A heart trouble," pronounced Aunt;
Phoebe solemnly. “What the poor child
suffers from it no words can trill,”
“Yes, yes! Well, now, my dear lady,
what course ought I to pursue under
these remarkable circumstnnces ? With
m.v peculiar views on the subject of
health—my very decided views—I really
cannot be expected to proceed as if—if
the circuinstiijcos wrire different."
“I don’t knew anything about that. 1
cannot advise you. But 1 feeJ as if I
had done tny duty.”
. “But I—can I honorably retract? Can
I withdraw from my proposal?”
“M.v brother-in-law is of a very choleric
temper. I cannot say. But you might j
be.'called nvray,*'
“I tun called away. 1 hnyo urgent
business iri Liverpool, and 1 am the man
who shout*} he yon the spot. No indirect !
agency will prevail. I shall go abroad at
once, Mrs. Bay. And-Miss Gladys—she
is very pretty—no doubt may supply my ’
place in the course of a year with some {
one who—win) has not the peculiar and j
very decided views on health that 1 hold. !
And you—since yon scent n lady of tin- !
common sens*? and superior ideas of the
fitness of things—will perhaps use your
influence to—to”—
“Certainly, (o smooth nty niece’s path-
way, of course.”
So the conversation came pacifically to
an end, and two days inter the squire
sailed for Liverpool. The news came to
the Rays like a thunderbolt, for the fa-
ther and son had prospectively secured
■ large Slice of the good fortbne from
Gladys’ wedding the rich squire. But he
was gone—fop a year or more, report said
—end after a furious and senseless anger
against Glldyf, the poor girl was left In’
peace.
When Aunt Phoebe went home to Iter
quiet seaside dwelling at Bayport, she
took Gladys With her »n a visit, and ons
day she privately wrote a letter to Dick
Archer, who sshe had learned through
Gladys’ grandfather was a most promts-
