Home Town Loyalty
If we had more loyal citizens
like Louis Sciba, Cuero business
would perhaps be more thriving
and the city more progressive.
Reciting a little instance re-
garding the bread question and
the invasion of outside interests
in the bread marketing field in
Cuero, Sciba declared he believed
citizens of Cuero should be more
loyal to the home town mer-
chant
He stated that recently a most
attractive young lady from Yoa-
kum came to him and solicited
his printing. He told her that
while the proprietor of the local
newspaper was not trading with
him at the time, that several
members of the office force were
and that he believed the local
printing plant was entitled.to his
business. He was informed by
the young lady that she had rel-
atives in Cuero, and that if he
did not trade with her, she would
see that they bought their bread
elsewhere. Mr. Sciba politely
Thursday morning.
Mr. Wendt was 70 years,
and 2 months old.
He was born in Pommern,
Germany February 11th, 1864,
and with his parents emigrated
to Texas in May, 1867, landing
at Galveston. Later the family
made Weimar their home and
here Mr. Wendt was wedded to
Miss Augusta Boeer on November
22nd, 1887. After several years
residence here, he and his esti-
mable wife moved near Shiner,
where they continuously resided
for over 37 years. Less than a
year ago they moved to Yoakum
and it was at the family home
that brief funeral services were
held Friday afternoon at 3 o’-
clock, the last sad rites being
concluded at the City Cemetery
in Shiner, Rev. Paul Bechter,
pastor of the Holy Cross Luther-
an Church at Yoakum, having
charge of all religious services.
A select choir of male voices
beautifully and touchingly ren-
dered the funeral hymns. The
flowers, that made gorgeous his
last resting place, came from
friends far and near as Mr.
Wendt was held in high esteem
Remmers and A. G. Lichey.
Honorary pallbearers were J. H
Huebner, Ed Dreyer, Hy. Stindt,
Herman Dreyer, D. F. Sistrunk,
Dr. E. H. Marek, Dr. M. A. Mil-
ner and L. W. Sheckles.
Mr. Wendt, through honest
and constant toil, accumulated
considerable wealth, having one
of the'most beautiful farm homes
and farms in this section. He
was a kind and devoted husband
and father and always spoke well
cf everybody. He loved children
and would always take time to
entertain them. He often spoke
of his grandchildren on his sick
bed and when the end was near
he expressed his regret at leav
ing those whom he loved so
dearly. He was a member of
the Lutheran Church and
brought up all of his children in
the same faith, of which he was
very proud. He was educated
in the public schools of Texas
and always took a great interest
in the rural schools of his dis
trict, having served as trustee of
the Menger school district for a
period of eighteen consecutive
years without opposition.
Mr. Wendt was a member of

There’s a big difference in gasolines—and Gulf
has proved it!
Good Gulf gas faced 32 other gasolines in
a series of tests on famous American hills—and
won more tests than the 32 other gasolines combined!

Monthly Pains Relieved
Women who take CARDUI have
found that severe monthly pains
have been relieved, and that by
continued use of it for a reasonable
length of time their strength has
been renewed and their general
health improved.
“I am glad to speak; a few words for
Cardui, the medicine I have taken for a
weak, run-down condition, for bad pains
in my side and hack and for irregular
periods,” writes Mrs. Koy Chandler, of
Cusseta, Ala. “Cardui straightened me
out and I felt 100 per cent better. It
certainly helped me.”
Thousands of women testify Cardui
benefited them. If it does not benefit
YOU, consult a physician.
Card of Thanks
We desire to thank all who
were so kind to us in our recent
bereavement. To Rev. Schuetze
and the choir of select voices for
their comfort and consolation
we are very grateful. For all
the beautiful flowers you have
our sincere thanks. To Mrs.
Hugh Koether for her constant
and numerous acts of kindness
we extend our heart-felt appre-
ciation and lasting gratitude.
