Dr. R. E. Martin, an old and
very prominent physician of Bon-
ham, died at his home Thursday
night of heart failure. Perhaps
no man in town had more friends
or had ministered to the needs of
more sufferers, than had the doc-
tor.
Mr. Wilson started out showing a
firm hand and he is likely to keep
r it up. Let it be hoped that he
will have all the encouragement
necessary to a successful adminis-
tration. It has been a long time
since we have lived under demo-
cratic rule and we are anxious for
it to lie satisfactory.

The late Police Captain William
H. Hodgkins of New York, who died
from cardiac strain that he brought
on by reducing his weight over fifty
pounds in three weeks, hated corpu-
lence, and often regaled his friends
with anecdotes that had corpulence
for their butt
“I went to a melodrama the other
night,” Captain Hodgkins said one
afternoon to a police reporter. “The
heroine was fat—fatter* than myself.
“In the second act she fell over-
board, and the hero, a little, scrawny
chap, plunged after her and seemed
to be having a good deal of difficulty
in swimming with her toward the
yacht.
“As the hero splashed and strug-
gled under his heavy burden a god
yelled from the gallery:

A Talk About Abstracts
Advertising is like pumping
water. When you go to the pump
you don't expect the water to
keep running unless you keep up
the elbow grease, yet when some
of you put an ad in the paper one
week, you expect a deluge of cus-
tomers the first day after the pa-
per comes out. The idea is to
keep at it and results are sure to
The following suggestion is taken
from Farm and Fireside:
“For people with steam heat, old
magazines stuck in the radiators will
be found a fine substitute for hot-.
water bottles. Magazines so heated '
never burn, and when placed in a bed
or a baby’s carriage hold the heat
for a long time.”

VARIED FASHIONS IN BREAD
Bakers’ Exhibition In London Reveals
the Different Styles In Loaves
i That Are Favored.
Them are fashiona in food as well
as in clothes, according to a Lon-
don newspaper’s account of the bak-
ers and confectioners’ exhibition in
England. One of the competitions J
open to aspiring bakers, the account 1
reads, is for the best bun, and it has
produced enough buns to satisfy a
legion of school treats. It is a re-
lief, after passing acres of fancy j
work, to come upon stacks and pyra-
mids of plain bread. If the cakes ‘
are becoming more artistic, bread is
certainly becoming more mechanical
In its methods of production. There
is a huge show of baking machinery
—dividers to sift the flour, a great
metal arm to knead it, another de-
vice to cut the dough into loaves,
and finally a wonderful oven. These
machines make two hundred piping
hot loaves out of a sack of flour in

crusty cottage variety. I p in the
north they are all for the square-tin
shape. The midlands fancy the Co-
burg, which is the cottage loaf with-
out its topknot. The soutli likes its
bread drier than the north. Fashions
are more changeable in i'tts„ espe-
cially in the gelatinous brands,
which run readily into top.cal molds.

Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble
Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences, result. Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, a child’s bowels should be
constantly watched, and a gentle
laxative given _ when necessary.
Dr. Miles’ Laxative Tablets are
especially wrrll adapted to women
and children. The Sisters of
Christian Charity, 531 Charles St..
Luzerne, Ra., who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
"Some time &fo we began using Dr.
Miles' Laxative Tablet* and find that
we like them very much. Their action
la excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results In
every case and the Slaters are very
much pleased.”
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance ate especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child ‘‘medicine,’’ even
though the taste is partially dis-
guised. In using Dr. Miles’ Lax-
ative Tablets, however, this diffi-
culty is overcome. The shape of
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection.
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make Dr.
Miles’ Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy lor children.
If the first box fails to benefit,
the price is returned. Ask your
druggist. A box of 25 doses costs
only 25 cents. Never sold in bulk.
