WHY YOU ARE NERVOUS
The nervous system is the alarm system
■ of the human tx»<iy.
In perfect health we hardly realize that
we have a network of nerves, Isit when
health is ebbing, when strength is declin-
ing, the same nervous system gives the
alarm in headaches, tiredness, dreamful
sle«p, irritability and unless corrected,
; leads straight to a breakdown.
To correct nervousness, Scott’s Emul-
sion is exactly what you should take; its
rich nutriment gets into the blood and
rich blood feeds the tiny nerve-cells while
- the whole system responds to its refresh-
| ing tonic force. It is free from alcohol.

Ex-Governor O. B. Colquitt arrived
in Ballinger Tuesday afternoon at I :io
and after luncheon with a few friends
at the Central Hotel, he began speaking
at the Queen Theare to a full house and
for about two hours held the audience
in rapt and respectful attention and by
the loud and continuous applause show
ed conclusively that a large per cent of
the audience were in accord with him
and enjoying his talk to the fullest ex- j
tent.
Judge J no. I. Guion in a few well
chosen remarks introduced the speaker
and said among other things, that Col-
quitt had made one of the best gover-
nors Texas had had for the past twen-
ty years, always firm and out spoken in
his convictions and honest on all ques-
tions of vital interest to the people of
his state.
The candidate for the senate first
spoke of his position on prohibition and
said it was a question that seemed
would never cease to agitate the minds
of the people of Texas, but he for one
would like the subject to take a rest. He
paid his respects to the Anti-Saloon _
League, an Ohio institution, and also iewej
expressed his views on woman suffrage ”
and said he had always been ami was ,,
now unequivocally opposed to both is- K()Utb
sues and strongly favored state rights in
purity, and opposed a centralized gov-
ernment and said he believed fully in
