The Best Medicine In the World.
“My little girl had dysentery very
i bad. I thought she would die. Cham-
berlain’s Colic; Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy cured her, and 1 can truth-
fully say that I think it Is the best
medicine In the world,’’ writes Mrs.
A prairie schooner drawn by a three
yoke ox team passed through Weath-
erford Saturday afternoon about four
o’clock headed for Fort Worth. The
schooner was a pretty good duplicate
of the old-time affair so common on
Texas prairies thirty to forty years
ago, but which are rarely ever seen
now.
The team and the owner came from
Shackelford county, near Albany,
whence they had made about twenty
miles a day, camping out at night in
regulation old-fashioned Immigrant
style.
Some weeks ago a Fort Worth man
was in Shackelford county with his
auto and got stuck and had to get
the old-timer to pull him out with his
ox team. Afterward the -Fort Worth
citizen sent the Shackelford old-timer
a telegram telling him to hitch up and
trek to Pantherville. What he was to
do when he got there the old gentle-
man did not know, but was proceed-
ing upon his way with child-like faith,
happy to be once again on the move.
It Is supposed the city man proposes
to give the Shackelford county old-
timer a good time and send him back
home richer in experience and dol-
lars.
Says Crops Flourishing.
J. W. Loving, cattleman and banker
of Jermyn, Texas, is in Fort WTorth
with cattle for the Fort Worth market.
He says the grasshoppers have both-
ered the farmers some, but the major-
ity of the pests have confined their op-
erations to the pasture lands. Crops
all through Jack county are in good
condition.—'Star-Telegram.
A Good Investment.
W. D. Magli, a well known merch-
ant of Whitemound, Wls., bought a
stock of Chamberlain’s medicine so as
do be able to supply them to his cus-
tomers. After receiving them he was
himself taken sick and says that one
small bottle of Chamberlain’s Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was
worth more to him than the cost of
his entire stock of these medicines.

While the Herald has not received
specific reports from every section of
the county, enough reliable Informa-
tion has been given of a general na-
ture to show that Parker county ha3
been given a genuine good soaking
from end to end and from side to side,
since the rain began last Saturday
afternoon about 5 o’clock.
More than an inch fell in the three
rains that came, including the one of
Saturday afternoon and from east to
west and north to south boundaries
crops have received a washing down
unexcelled in many years.
While the southern portion of the
county has not had the rain that fell
in the middle and northern and west-
ern portions, by more than half, still
this last rain seems to have fallen
over practically the entire southern
half of the county, and while too late
for benefit to early corn, it will prove
of immense help to late corn, and cot-
ton Is greatly helped.

Fair Space Nearly All Gone.

State Fair at Dallas, showing only
three spaces left untaken in the main

order will have to be placed as soon
as the fair is over each year, as the
