They nre too great for private inter-

with pains in my left side, and would
often altnost smother to death.
Medicines patched me up for awhile
but then i would get worse again. Final-

bought me a bottle and I began using it.
It did me more good than all the medi-
cines 1 had taken.
I have induced many of my friends to
try Cardui. and they ail say they have
been benefited by ils lire. There never
has been, and never will be, a medicine
to compare with Cardui. I believe it is
a good medicine for all womanly trou-

For over 50 years, Cardui has been re-
lieving woman’s suffering:) and building
weak women up to health and strength.
If you area woman, give it a fair trial.
It should surely help you, as it has a
million others.
Get a bottle of Cardui to-day.

perishes, but only seemingly, for bn
rove ceasing to exist as bacillus it
transforms itself into a small1 oval
body which is only about one-third
the size of the bacillus. These small
oval bodieB we call spores. These
spores have been found to tx^ vnrv
resistant to climatic changes, to high
and low temperatures. You may
boll them in water for a whole hour
without destroying, while the bacilli
will be killed in five minutes when
subjected to the same treatment.
Neither does oold have any effect on
them, and depriving them of mois-
ture, that is drying them out, is like-
wise ineffective in destroying thorn.
Blood that contained these spores lias
been dried and kept in a closed bottle
for six years and at the end of this
time when brought under the skin of
a mouae promptly caused the death ot
the same. In one instance the
m
r
is creat-
ing so much interest I am afraid
that some ot the o'ber • ffices will be
overlooked. One in particular that
I am interested in is that of State
Superintendent of Schools. There
nre two oiniilites fir this position,
both good men and well qualified
Mr. W. F Diugbty, the present ic.
cumbenr, was appointed by the gov
ernor to fid out the unexpired term
of Mr. Brally, who resigned last
Septemb r Mr. Doughty baa en-
tered upon the duties of office in
.earnest. He has outlined the work
nnd baa the schools in good work-
ing order, still the most of bis ie to
be completed in the futnre, so be is
asking you for another term in
which to carry out and put io prac-
tice bis plans.
Nov, who is Mr. Doughty? He
was born aod reared in this country,
began teaching school before he
was grown, and kept this up until
be bad saved enough money to put
himaelf through the University of
Texas, and Chicago Uoijversity.
Since hie graduation be bae tangbt
in the Texas schools, being Super-
intendent at Marlin, Texas, when be
was appointed Slate Superintendent
ten months ago.
Mr. Doughty is a man of sterling
worth, upright and honorable.
Should you visit Austin be is a man
that will welcome you into hie bffice
and Aalk to you concerning your
. achbol afiairs. He le no politician,
but just a highly educated obriatlan
gentleman who has made the echool
bueineee hie life’s work and ie now
asking you to keep him iu office a
reasonable length of time ao that be
can perfect certain educational poli-
cies already begun.
In conclusion I will say that I am
aincerely interested in the schools
of our state. I am making this my
profession and knowing as I do that
the policies Mr. W. F. Doughty
stands for are good and wholesome,
I respectfully ask your vote and in-
fluence in bis favor.
Respectfully yours,
H. L. B. Skinner.
Tbs saloons have apparsntl' “put
one over" in the make up of the bal-
lot to be used tomorrow. Usual y
oonstilutional amendments and spe-
cial questions to be vot d on are
are placed at the bottom of the bal-
lots. The submission question will
be the first thing on the ballots voted
to-morrow. The two paragraphs,
“for” and “against” submission
will be at the4np of the ticket. The
liquor advocates can “coach” the
most illiterate bow to vote against
eubmieeion by tolling bim to scratch
oft the top lines on the ticket. It
you want to vote for submission
leave the lines beginning with the
word “for,” but scratch out the lines
beginning with the word “against.”
If Ferguson by chance should be
elected, notwithstanding bis decla-
ration that be will, if governor, veto
ever? kind of liquor regulating leg-
islation that may be passed, it will
not signify political peace in Texas.
The victory of Ferguson would bo
' the signal for local option elections
in not only the wet but in all the dry
counties of the state. The liquor
interests, with Ferguson as gover-
nor, will be more active than ever
before in striving to regain lost ter-
ritory. L;t it be burned deep into
the understanding of every Texan,
that the liquor question will not be
settled until the ealo o has been
wholly banished from the state
This can be done within the next
two years; but it is going to be done,
if it takes twenty years; and until
the saloon is wiped out there will be
no political peace in Texas.

E. R. Hunt, Palacios, Texas
Every year along in July, to Palacios on the Coast,
Come the people to Encampment,—the place of Baptist boast;
Come they from all over Texas and from Oklahoma State,
Come the few and come the many, o <me the small and come the grant
Like a mighty army moving is this great religious host,
They come to claim the blessing of the Blessed Holy Ghost.
They come to help each other on the broad highway of life,
That the path may be the easier In spite of sin and strife.
They coafb down to Palacios, the (rood things here to find,
For tbd things that rest the body aud that elevate the mind.
They put In constant study both for profit and for gain,
Learning bow to diroct, how to guide and bow to train.
They come for inspiration and to learn just how to do,
Eaob telling of his mistakes? the corrections to review.
They bear the Word expounded at each new rising suu
That gives them strength and comfort until the day is done.
Thk leaders have the success of the enterprise at heart
When they select the talent of the world for every part.
They come from far-off China many blessed truths to give,
How the Heathen crave the Gospel that they may ever live:
How 'tho Holds arc white to harvest and the laborers they arc few:’
How in the lands of darkuess there is s place for you.
Though they tell of many hardships that for Christ they undergo
When they call for Christian workers many volunteer to go.
Then the Sneakers of the homeland from the East and from the West
From the Northland and the Southland they get the very best,
Who give us of their wisdom as they tell us ot their view
As they tell the Gospel story,—that is old yet ever new.
There’s the singing and the music that would set your soul on fire,
For it makes you think of Heay^o and of the Angel oboir.
It wafts your ebui to Glory, and your joys just oveflrow,
And it gives an inspiration that you otherwise can’t know.
With strength renewed for battle with the hosts of sin and strife
They go back home to combat with the evils that are rife,
They go back home with hearts aflame with Holy seal aod love,
To win souls for His kingdom—for the brighter world above.
And the memories that will Unger will surga Ilka wavs on wave,

Sunday School and preaohing service,
■o that there will be time to go from
one to the other. The probability Is
there will be bat one preaching ser-

FACTS NB0IT THE DEADLY CNARB0N
By Doctor Hebert Schmidt, Texas
Experiment Station, A gricnltnrnl and
M echanical College.
Anthrax or charbon ia an aoote in-
fection, contagious and febrile disease;
however, it is not contagions in a
sense that it is transmitted directly
from one animal to the other by per-
haps joit standing near it, but the in-
fection Is usually taken np with the
food or water. The mere fact that an
animal takes sick soon after or per-
haps the next day after it hae been
near a aiok or dead animal does by no
means prove that the infection was
received direotly from the body of tne
sick or dead animal; this Is merely a
coincidence, and ty the farmer gen-
erally believed to be the souroe of In-
fection,
It has been proved bevond doubt
that the real causo of anthrax is one
specifio kind ot the many amall or.
ganlsms to which the term "germ” Is
•o often applied, a micro organism so
small that we mar have to magnify it
at least 600 times in order to be able
to make ont its form distinctly, bat it
Is still a giant when compared to aome
of the other mloro-organisms which
cause other diseases. When these
germs have once gained entranoe to
the body, no matter whether it be
through the Intestinal traot or a
wound In the skin, they will at onoe
begin to multiply very rapidly. But
in order that they may multiply they
must grow, and in order to grow they
must take up food for themselves.
However, not all of the food it takes
up is utilised for its growth, but evi-
dently some of it, after it has under-
gone certain changes, is thrown oil as
waste products, just as any other liv-
ing organism, and these waste pro-
ducts are very poisonous for the ani-
mal and are, hence, ealled toxins.
This ia the subetanoe which ultimately
causes the death of the animal. While
the baolill or germs are growing,
multiplying aud throwing off ot watte
produota they do not remain at the
same point where they first entered
the body, bat as soon as the natural
forces of resistance of the body arc
overcome they will get into the blood
stream and will then, of courts, bo
Immediately carried to every part of
the body.
Habile of the Germ.
Let us look at the bacillus a little
closer and see what kind of babita It
has. We have already seen that it pro-
duces toxins which oauto all the tron-
bie. Wo farther know that It la not
them and this will take placo as soon
aa a dead animal Is opened. When we
take these few facts into consideration
we can easily see that the sole object
of the formation of the spores is to
bridge over some unfavorable climat-
ic conditions and as soon as these
spores are brought in contact »with
conditions that are favorable for )>ac-
teeial development, they are able to
germinate and the result is a bacillus
that causes anthrax.
Reason for Outbreaks
From this we can see yvhy, when the
climatio conditions become favorable,
we can suddenly have an outbreak of
anthrax, although several years may
have passed without a single case oc-
onring. And who can tell whefe the
spores have been carried in the mean-
time by wind, water, cartion birds and
all other means of conveyance, not
even excepting the skinning and ship
pine of hides and bones from animals
dead with anthrax?
How do these spores and bacilli
gain entranoe to the body? There is
no doubt that in the great majority of
caans they are taken np with the food
and water; however, they can also en-
ter throngh wounds in the skin, lie
they ever so small. Especially fodder
that has been laying on the ground
and baa probably had a rain is very
dangerous in this respect. Feed com-
ing from a notorions anthrax district
should always be looked upon with
suspicion. The spores and bacilli
will cling to the outside ot this feed
and as soon as the spores have gained
entrance to the bodv they, too, will
be transformed into bacllliand .their
deadly work begins.
What will the stockman soo when
his oow is sick with anthrax. Most of
the time he will perhaps find her dead
in the morning, much bloated and
with a bloody discharge from I he na-
tural openings. Or he will notice that
the animal seems to have high fever
and will not eat for a day or so, till
death, which almost invariably fol-
lows. If the tronble ia looated more in
the intestines be will probably see Hie
manure streaked with blood. Should
it be cue of the skin forms, then a
large swelling may be seen at the seat
of Infection. This Is about all that is to
be seen bv thestookman, and to make
positive diagnosis must be left to
one wbo Is versed in animal disuasus.
It ia indeed often vory difficult to tell
positively whether It la anthrax t not
and It can only bo proved by finding
the bacillus fu the animal.
To Prevent Its Spread
What should the stockman do to
irevent the spreatl of the diseasey
Phis is where ho has sinned Immense*
, for he has time and again sown
_ _e seed of destruction to his stock,
jerhaps without knowing it. But lets
lope that he will now follow the
advice that has lutely been given so
often by the sanitary officers. The
treat secret is prevention. He can on-
v tell vou how to do tho fighting; If
you will not take his advice there is
nothing further for him to do. There
is no medlolne that will do the sicli
animals any good, so do not let the
.. .V.'.sM'V.*'-- 1 ■ ‘
Watering the Animal
The animats should not be allowed I
to take up water Irom creeks that /
pass throngh these low plases, nor
trom those that may be contiminated
witli offal from tanneries farther np 'j
the stream. Perhaps the tno9t im-
portant. tjuestlon and the one most I
difficult to answer, la that of vaccina-
tion. Them are several diiTe.-ent
method : and accordingly several dif-
ferent vaccines, but they are all
founded on tho same principle. The
object in view is to force the animal’s
body to produce protective sub- ;
stances that, will kill the anthrax ba-
cilli*, should it ever gain .entrance to
the body, before it can fin *ny harm.
However, tliere-i* such a wide differ- t
enoe In the reaction produced by dif-
ferent, substance?, such a wide varia-
tion in the substances u*eJ to bring
about this production of produc'd va
suhstanecs in the bodv, and such a
wide difference in Uie virulenc i of tbe
anthrax bacilli that the production of
•> safe and efficient vaccine Is a difficult
matter. We have not a vaojlnd that
.is satisfactorily efficient.. The method
which lias undoubtedly given the
be-t results in foreign countries is
that devised by Pasteur. In this
method attenuated or weakened anth-
rax bacilli are being used to bring
about the dorired result. But. this in
oreoisoly wh it makes it a little dan-
gerous to use, for it will sometimes
happen the bacilli are not quite at-
tenuated enough and may then kill
the animal you are trying to save.
Furthermore, it takes two vaccina-
tions with ttiis method; the second to
be given about 12 days after the first,
and It will take three or four weeks
for the animal to attain the height of
immunity, so that in all it will take
about a mouth before the animal has
passed tho danger line. This makes
it necessary to begin tho vaccination
early in the spring so the stock will
be ready for it. when the climatic con-
ditions become favorable for tnu dis-
ease to develop.
It is estimated that about half of
the animals that suffer from charbon
die. The di*ea*c acts so quickly that
there is little chance for medicine to
do good, and nearly ail Hie efforts that
have been mode ill fighting the dis-
ease hare been of a preventive na-
ture. Many veterinary surgoona use
a vaccine while others usn a prepara-
tion that increases the white blood
corpuscles of the animals. . . 3
