Dear Sir,—Three rears ago I was suf-

tism Our minister's wife advised me to
take Vugetine. After taking one bottle I
was entirely relieved. This year, feeling
a return of the disease, I again commenced
taking it. and .<ni being benefited great'y.

Safe and Sure.
Mr. II R Stevens.
In 1872 your Vegetine was recommended
to it e, and. yielding to the persuasions of
a friend, I consented to try it. At the
time I was suffering from general debility
and nervous prostration, superinduced by
overwork ai d irr gular habits. Its won*
derful strengthening and curative proper-
ties seemed to affect my debilitated system
liom the first dose; and under its per-
sistent use I rapidly recovered, gaining
more than usual health and good feeling.
Since then I have not hesitated to give
Vegetine my most unqualified indorse-
ment as being a safe, sure and powerful
agent in promoting health and restoring
the wasted system to new life and energy.
Vegetine is the onlv medicine 1 use, and
us long as I live I never expect to find a
belter.
Yours truly, W. H. CLARK.

was fifteen months in gathering. I had
two surgical ope<ations by the best skill
in the State, but received no permanent
cure. I suffered great pain t times, and

Special to the Galveston News.
Bkyan, January 8.—The State
Grange met here to-day—the matter,
Col. W. W. Lang, presiding. Most
of the officers of the State Grange,
including ladies, are here, and others
are expected by next train. About
thirty-rive counties are now repre-
sented by about sixty delegates, al-
ready arrived. No business transac
ted by this body to-day, after the
opening, except the appointment and
report of the committee on creden-
tials, the delivery of the master's an-
nual address, and the appointment of
the several committees. The master's
address is an able one, and was re-
ceived with applause.
It is understood the Grange will
go as a body to ihe Agricultural and
Mechanical college, to see for them-
selves what is going on there. They
are a body presenting a tine appear-
ance, full of energy and intelligence.
