Day or Night.
The mail order business is the
quack doctor of commerce. It
promises much and guarantees
nothing. No mail order house
helped to build that little white
house in your district. No mail
order house ever took you by the
hand when you were in distress
and told you to let that little ac-
count go until after the harvest
next year. No mail order house
ever sold you a vehicle and spent
every cent of its profit right in
the community where you and
your neighbors could get it back
again. No mail order house
shoves its patent leather shoes
under your table and rejoices
when you are glad nor spoke en-
couraging words in your affliction
nor stood with uncovered heads
besides the graves when your
children died. No, the mail
order house is after money.
Every dollar it gets its hands
on will be jerked out of your
neighbo r h o o d forever. The
mail order house may bear on
its face the semblance of friend-
ship but no human hearts beat
under its cloak of hypocrisy.
Sentiment to it is unknown.
The whole institution is as cold
and bbodless as corpse.—Ex-
change.

The following clipping
the Robt Lee Observer shows
the kind of preachers Coke
county produces as well as rab-
bits’
Rev. D. A. McGuire put out
his trot line one day last week
in the river below town with the
expectation of feasting on cat
fish. To his surprise, when he
ran his line next morning he
found instead of “yaller cats” a
good mess of ‘‘yaller yam” po-
tatoes rolled off the irrigated
farm of Judge Powers above
where the trot line was set, and
having ‘‘eyes,” saw the bait and
bit.
Central West Teias a Land ot Plenty.
Peace and Happiness.
Secretary Thomas, of the Com-
mercial Clubs Association, is
writing about Central West Tex-
as, says:
“We have found upon investi-
gation that Central West Texas
produced last year with scarcely
one-fifth of her tillable land in
cultivation, approximately one-
fourth of the cotton crop of Tex-
as, or in other words, something
like $50,000,000. worth of cotton
and cotton seed, another $50,000-
000 produced in other crops mak-
ing a total of $100,000,000 from
the farms, gardens and orchards
of West Texas to which must be
added livestock, which is bring-
ing more dollars into the country
today than when this was a
range country exclusively.
With this record of production
shown, and only one-fifth of our
tillable land under cultivation,
and no mention made of the
dairy interests, poultry and bee
industries which are assuming
substantial ( proportions, the
wonderful and almost marvelous
opportunties of the men who
come now to this country to pro-
fit by the development already
shown and share in the further
advancement to a normal state
of development can be seen and
realized at a glance.”
Ballinger, Runnels county is lo-
cated in what is known as Cen-
tral West Texas, and when we
stop to consider our cotton re-
ceipts of last year, and the many
thousands of dollars realized
from other crops, and this to
from such small per cent of the
land in cultivation, we can see
at a glance the wonderful possi-
bilities yet to be attained.
Runnels County contributed a
large per cent to the Central
West Texas cotton crop last year,
and her fruit forage and other
crops were all money bearing
crops.
There is something doing in
this section for the sturdy tiller
of the soil.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Neier Sloped it
Prevalency of Kidney Disease.
Most people do not realize the alarm-
ing increase and remarkable prevalency
of kidney disease.
While kidney dis-
orders are the
most common
diseases that pre-
vail, they are
almost the last
recognized by
patient and phy-
sicians, who con-
’ tent themselves
with doctoring the effects, while the orig-
inal disease undermines the system.
What To Do.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy,
fulfills every wish in curin / rheumatism,
pain in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passage.
It corrects inability to hold water
and scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effects following use of liquor, wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant ne-
cessity of being compelled to go often
during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and
the extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root
is soon realized. It stands the highest
for its wonderful cures of the most dis-
tressing cases. If you need a medicine
you should have the best. Sold by drug-
gists in fifty-cent and one-dollar sizes.
You may have a sample bottle and a
book that tells all
about it, both sent free
by mail. Address Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Bing-
hamton, N. Y. When Homsof »wsmp-Root.

make any mistake, but remember the
name, Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, and

b very careful about her chum. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it a sun bath to sweeten it. She knows
that if her churn is sour it will taint the
butter that is made in IL The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are almost exactly like the
churning of butter. Is ft not apparent
then that if this stomach-churn is foul It
makes foul ail which is put into it?
The evil of a foul stomach Is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the dissem-
ination of disease throughout the body.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet
It does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn—absolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment In this way it cures blotches,
pimples, eruptions, scrofulous swellings,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, foul taste In
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and despondent, have frequent headaches,;
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour'
or bitter risings after eating and poor
appetite, these symptoms, or any consider-
ablenumberof them, indicate that you are
suffering from biliousness, torpid or lazy
liver with the usual accompanying indi-
gestion, or dyspepsia and their attendant
derangements.
