first place to the teewstj of
fighting; the bacteria which
give us our diseases. Next
to the actual bacteria of dis-
ease, the mosquitos and flies
•re the most dangerous enemies of man.
The mosquito with its bite injects into our
veins malaria, yellow fever, and other fatal
troubles. The fly, with spongy feet, collects
the invisible germs of diseases, spreads
them over our food and poisons us with
typhoid, cholera and other plagues of the
fitrasn race.
Dr. Pierce, the eminent physician of Buf-
falo, N. Y., says, "If each person will con-
sider his system as an army of men which
he controls as a general, and will aee to its
proper provisioning and that it has plenty
of ammunition in the shape of good red
blood, he will be able to overcome the
enemy in these germs of disease." Every
healthy man has five million red blood
corpuscles to every square millimeter of
blood. The best tonic for increasing the red
blood corpuscles and building up healthy
tissue is no doubt Dr. Pierce's Golden Med-
ical Discovery. This medicine has been on
the market tor over a third of a century
and numbers its cures by the thousand.
Many popular patent medicines or tonics
are made np largely of alcohol and will
shrink the corpuscles of the blood and
make them weaker for resistance. What
is needed is an alterative extract, like Dr.
Piesce’s Golden M dical Discovery, made
of roots and herbs, without the use of alco-
hol, that will assist the stomach in assimi-
lating or taking from the food such ele-
ments as are required for the blood, also an
alterative that will assist the activity of the
liver and aause it to throw off the poisons
in the blood. When we have accomplished
this we have put the system in a fortified
condition so strong that it can repel the
germs of disease- which we find every-
where—in the street-ears, the shops, the
factories, the bedrooms, wherever many
people congregate, or where sunlight and
good air do not penetrate.
Accept no substitute for "Golden Medical
Discovery,” There is nothing "just as
good ” for diseases of the stomaoh. blood
and lungs.
Neglected constipation means headache,
heart-burn, sour stomach, foul taste in the
mouth, biliousness, pimples, and patpita-
of the heart. Constipation is promptly
cured bv Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets. One
for mild cases, otherwise two.

Alderman elect will be sworn
iu uext Weduesday aud cussed
out for the uext two years.—
Corpus Crony.
When men hare greatness
thrust upon they mi6t expect
to be criticised, in this laud of
the free; aud one of the dearest
privileges of the American citi-
zen is his liberty to “cuss the
government,” from President
down to Coustable.
Ex Gov. Hogg has mysteri-
ously appeared • iu Austin ou
“busiuess.” The woodchuck
wonders what that means.
Express.
It seems hard for Jim to re-
alize that he was shelved when
he retired from the gubernato-
rial chair, aud apparently be
labors under the hallucination
tbat he is still a power iu the
laud.
With one baud the Russian
soldier is striving to keep peace
at home, while with the other
he swiftly retreats before the
aggressive Japs. — Houston
Post.
We have seen men who could
walk ou their hands, hut never
saw one who was able to do the
pedestriau act on ene hand. If
the Russian soldier can “swift-
ly retreat’' ou one hand he is
certainly a curiosity—a Jim
Dandy, so to speak.
A people’s party is all right,
so long as it is a party of the
ople aud not a part of them,
it oh, what a world of ruined
>pes is suggested by the little
ter “y.”—Express.
Correct. Hundreds of men
ce prominent in Texas were
egated to the rear aud forced
take a back seat, because
ly made the mistake of sup-
sing that the People’s party
mpriBed a majority of the
ople, when it was only a small
rt of them.
The President proclaims a
iquaie Deal” policy, and Mr.
yan has a lecture, “The Val-
of an Ideal.” It’s all in the
al.—Houston Chronicle,
fhat’s where you are away
off. The deal is ooly a small
part of it. Men seldom “stand
pat.” The “draw” is the best
part of it, especially when you
happeu to “fill.”
It took oue mao twenty-seveu
years to get to Corpus Chnsti
on the Till-Mafiana train. And
then be got iu jail.—Corpus
Crony.
No wouder it took him *o
long to get there, Corpus is
such an out-of-the-way place.
It don’t take ’em that loug to
get to Alice. The Crony don’t
say so, hut we presume the man
was jailed for lunacy, fclo few
people go there, that when a
stranger does happen to drop
iu, after wauderiug twenty-sev-
en yeais, they at ouce conclude
tbat he is crazy or he wouldn’t
be there at all, and they lock
him up promptly. Aud, say,
we kuow a tuau 75 years old
who hasu’t got to Corpus yet.
A peripatetic cat stole into
the church Suuday, concealed
itself aud ktpt very quiet until
the choir begun to siug, when a
•(range tenor voice was heard.
The congregation was startled
aud the organist was frighten-
ed. Religious services were
suspended and a search was
made for the cat, which had in
some uuaccouutabie manner
got into the organ, its tail was
caught iu the treadle, aud ev-
ery time the treadle was pressed
down the leliue uotes issued
out. After extricating the cat
services were resumed, and the
preacher delivered juife a cate-
gorical sermon.—Celeste Cour-
ier. ’
If it had beeu a mouse iu the
organ iustead of a cat, it is uu-
likely that services would have
been resumed, or at least there
would have been no female
memheis Of the choir there to
sing.
CONSUMPTION'S WARNING
ffThe aid of scientific inventions is not
needed to determine whether your lungs
are affected. The first symptoms tan be
r«a,dil Rioted by anyone of average in-
telligence.
gTliere ia no disease known that gives ao
many plain warnings of its approach as
consumption, and no serious dtsoaat that
can be ao qulakly reached and checked,
if the medicine used ia Dr. Boachee’s
German Syrup, which ia made to cure
conaumpti n.
git ia in tha early stages that Gorman
8yrup should be taken, when warnings
are given in the cough that won’t quit,
tho congestion of tka bronchial tubes and
the gradual weakening of the lungs, ac-
companied by frequent expectation.
gBut no matter how deep-seated your
epugh, even if dread consumption has
already attacked your lungs, Gsrmen
Syrup will surely effect s cure—ss it hs*
done before in thousands of sppsreatly
hopeless eases of lung trouble.

CAILDREN’S INNOCENT
QUESTIONS.
Children’s questions are some-
times even more embarrassing
than their answers, says John
Henry Burn, in “Children’s
Answers.” Ths following are
questions asked by a small boy
during a two minutes* conver-
se! ion:
First—Do kittens take off
their fur wheo they go to bed at
night?
Second—Who cooked the
diuner when all the big people
were little boys?
Thiid—Why don’t oysters
have tails?
Fourth—What kind of med-
iciue is it the chemist keeps iu
the big greeu bottles in the
front windows?
Fifth—does old Santa
Claus give hC^e boys skates fer
when there jtin’t any ice?
Sixth—%’hea I drink water
why don’^t run down into my
legs!
