Matson, Sept. 25, 1904.
Seeing so many good letters in
last week’s issue I cannot resist
from writing a few words. So
many good letters I cannot name
them all. Uncle John’s letter
was an exception.
Health is getting some better.
Mr. Walter Erwin is improving
from a protracted spell of fever.
Jesse Britt, a young man from
near Hubbard, picking ootton for
J. P. Bigger,s had a chill this
evening; he has a high fever.
This is Sunday night. On last
night our union met at Savage
and took in five new members.
We had a lively time.
No visiting: too busy picking
cotton.
On this evening a few of us
met at Savage and organized a
Sunday school (union school),
with J. P. Biggers as superin-
tendent, J. L. Loyd as assistant
superintendent, B. I. Wells as
secretary and enrolled twenty-
two pupils. We are going to
have a good Sunday-school. You
will all hear from us later.
They are going to put Old Pap
through next week hauling cot-
ton to the gin, three bales every
day and gathering corn and
haul water between times.
Our good gin man W. A. York
has ginned nearly, 600 bales.
When we assisted at Savage
this evening the bats were not
there, but the owl had possession
uf the house. Some little boys
closed the doors and
caught the owl and
Mr. Tom Ball killed it. Now
there is no danger of bats and
owls getting in our Sunday-
school as the owl that has been
catching the prayer meetings
and Sunday-schools is dead.
Hurrah for the editor of the
Hubbard News and Uncle John.
•Old Pap.
Beautiful Women.
Plump cheeks, flushed with the soft
glow of health and a pure complexion,
make all women beautiful. Take a
small dose of Herbine after each
meal; it will prevent constipation and
help digest what you have eaten. 50c.
Mrs. ffm M. Stroud, Midlothian,
Texas, writes, May 31,1901:“We have
used Herbine in our family for eight
years, and found it the best medicine
we ever used for constipation, bilious
fever and malaria.” Sold by D. C.
Wood.
Recently in Cincinnati fifty
hello girls were caught flirting
over the wires and all of them
were discharged The manager
laid a trap and called them
“ sweet sisters,” and they all
tumbled. It was down right
mean.
Feartul Odds Asainst Him.
Bedridden, alone and destitute.
Such, in brief was the condition of an
old soldier by name of J. J. Havens,
Versailles,O. For years he was troubled
with Kidney disease and neither doc-
tors nor medicines gave him relief. At
length he tried Electric Bitters It put
him on his feet in short order and now
he testifies- “I’m on the road to com-
plete recovery.’’Best on earth for liver
and kidney troubles and all forms of
8tomaeh and Bowel complaints. Only
50c Guaranteed by J. E. Waller, W.
J. Jarvis and D. C. Wood.
Malone Makeups.
Well boys 1 am here again with
my stinger out.
The town is very quiet today.
Several have gone to Cotton-
wood to the burying of Mr. Bay-
singer, who suffered so long with
that loathsome disease called
consumption. He died yesterday
morning. Bro. J. W. Powell per-
formed the burial services.
The sick folks are all on the
mend this week. No new cases to
report and I am sure glad of it,
because, it seemed, the doctor,
was the only one having a good
time, laughing at us poor rascals
swallowing pills as large as the
first joint of your thumb.
I wish Uncle John would send
some of his little Johns over here
to piok out our cotton, for we
need ’em bad.
Cousin Zack got in a barrel of
nice pears Saturday and sold
them all out the same day. The
boys said they were fine.
Ye editors seem to think we
whooped up the Malone bank. I
think we have a right to, don’t
you Uncle John? For they furnish
ice water all the time. •
Mr. Geo. Carmichael was in
Malone today.
Mrs. J. H. Rogers and daughter
from Hubbard, stopped over in
our town a few hours the other
day on their return trip from
Leroy. And not having anything
to do to pass away the time, Mrs
Rogers happened to think that
she knew us in her girlhood’s
days, so came around to see us
and Cousin Zack tried to enter-
tain them untill Boll Weevil time.
We have a nice pit at the mar-
ket and Bro. Craig furnishes the
boys with nice barbecued beef
and light-bread.
Mr. Geo. V. Worley has built
a nice little residence in the cor-
ner of his field, near the tower,
and is occupied by D. A. Jami-
son.
The M. E. people had Bible-
reading last Sunday and next
Sunday they will organize a Sun-
day school.
H. L. Dawson has closed his
shop until after cotton picking.
Mesdames John Alford and
Carver were in town Monday.
Foxy,
Necessity Medicines.
It iB a great convenience to have at
hand reliable remedies for use in case
of accident and for slight injuries and
ailments. A good liniment and one
that is fast becoming a favorite if not
a household necessity is Chamberlain’s
Pain Balm. By applying it promptly
to a cut, bruise or burn it allays the
pain and causes the injury to heal in
about one-third the time usually re-
quired, and as it is an antiseptic It
prevents any danger of blood poison-
ing. When Pain Balm is kept at hand
a sprain inay be treated before inflam-
mation sets in, which insures a quick
recovery. For sale by D. C. Wood.
From Lott.Texas.
A MATTER OF HEALTH
During the past summer the
local pleasure steamers of Bos-
ton carried 700,000 people upon
excursions. So far as known not
one became seasick, and the
horror of the Slocum did not in-
timidate.
Editor Hubbard News.
Dear Sir; Through the kind-
ness of a friend here,I sometimes
see a copy of the home paper. 1
was reared at Armour, so have
many friends and acquaintances
at Hubbard, whom 1 never hear
from, only through that paper,
which I must say is up-to-date
in every respect. It improves all
the time. Am glad Hubbard has
a new railroad and seems to be
improving all the time.
You have mafty interesting
correspondents for your paper.
Among the number, Uncle John,
whom 1 met many years ago at a
Baptist Association above Spring
Hill, I was quite a child then,
but remember so many of the old
settlers of that oountry. The cor-
respondent from the Concho also
writes interesting letters.
1 will tell you something of our
town and country in Falls. This
is a high, rolling prairie country,
the blackest of land. Many fine
country homes surrounding. Lott
has about 1,200 inhabitants, four
churches, a city hall,a $12,000.00
brick school building, which will
be ready for school to open the
1st of October, six teachers em-
ployed for the ensuing term. We
also have a large flourmill, three
gins, which are busy these days
and long into the night; a new
corn shell er being built, twenty-
five business houses, including
restaurants; one bank, telephone

exchange, and the Aransas Pass
railroad. The farmers have fine
oorn and cotton ■and splendid
grain crops of all kinds. The
Brazos river is six miles east,and
fine timber and plenty of pecans
near at hand. Post oak land is
becoming very valuable now. We
have vegetables and fruit of all
kind. In one neighborhood,
pumpkin yam potatoes bave been
raised this year to the amount of
70 car loads. Hogs and cattle are
being shipped almost weekly. So
vou see Lott is in the swim her-
self.
1 wish you your merited suc-
cess, Believe me an old friend
and admirer of The Hubbard City
News.
