I heard of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and sent for a

sleep all right and I did not have those pains around my womb which I had
all the time before. Now I can ride ten miles in a carriage, my color has
returned, and I am full of life. I owe all this to the Vegetable Compound.
It has also done wonders for my thirteen-year-ol daughter. I will

in case of public calamity." After-
wrds, when it was proposed to grant
aid to the establishment and mainte-
nance of a home for indigent and dis-
abled Confederate soldiers and sailors,
it was found necessary to adopt the
amendment of 1894. Still later, when
it was desired to further provide a
pension for such soldiers and sailors
and their widows in indigent circum-
stances, it became necessary to adopt
the amendment of 1898.
It will be observed that the amend-
ment of 1894 authorized the legislature
"to grant aid to the establishment and
maintenance of a home for indigent
and disabled Cen federate soldiers or
sailers.’'
The amendment of 1898 added a fur-
ther provision authorizing the legisla-
ture to grant aid to indigent and dis-
abled Confederate soldiers and sailors
and "their widows in Indigent circum-
stances;" providing that the same
should not exceed $8 per month. This
clearly refers to the pensions which
were afterwards provided for by the
legislature by virtue of this amend-
ment.
This section 51, article 3, of the con-
stitution, as now amended, expressly
authorizes the granting of pensions to
such soldiers and sailors and their wid-
ows, and also expressly authorizes the
legislature to grant aid to the estab-
lishment and maintenance of a home
for said soldiers and ailors.
These provisions are exceptions to
the general inhibition that "the legis-
lature has no power to make any grant
or authorize the making of any grant
of public money to any individual, as-
sociation of individuals, municipal or
other corporation whatsoever."
It will be seen that thefe is not only
no express authority for the grant of
aid to the establishment and mainte-
nance of a home for the wives and
widows of Confederate soldiers and
sailors, but there is by clear implica-
tion a denial of such authority. This
Lill proposes to create, establish, main-
tain and make an appropriation foF a
Confederate woman's home, not only
for the indigent widows, but for the
wives of the ex-Confederate soldiers
and sailors of Texas.
I believe this bill to be unconstitu-
tional, and am hence unable to give it
executive approval.

opinion of the dairy and food commils-

Butter is made over. into temporary

ard butter teste. Poisoned drugs are
administered at the bedside. Adulter-
ated milk furnishes the youthful body
strength. At the annual meeting of
the National Consumer** League, about
three weeks ago, it was pointed out
that not only is flour frequently adul-
tepated, but there are two mills, one in ■
Ohio, and one in Kansas, which turn
out a certain grade of Indian corn flour
used only to adulterate wheat flour.
Adulteration and poison are a large
part of the sustenance of every stage
of life and every class. How long shall
we endure It?--Collier's Weekly.
I give notice of and proclaim my ob-
jections to this bill as follows:
States for trial any suit brought
against it by a citizen of this state
to recover for a loss under a policy of
insurance issued by such company, and
that by such removal the suit has been
transferred without and beyond the
limits of the county within which such
citizen resides."
The proposed amendment goes fur-
ther than the original act. in that it
seeks to prohibit the issuance of a sub-
sequent certificate for a period of three
years if the offending company shall
make application for a change of venue
or "to move" the cause into a federal
court, while the original act as it now
reads only prohibits a relssuance where
there is a removal from a state court
to a federal court Bitting outside of
the county in which the suit is brought.
I can not believe that it is a proper
thing to deprive any litigant of a post- '
tive right or take from him any privi-
lege enjoyed because he may make an
application for a change of venue in a
suit in court. In 1887 an act'‘(after-
wards repealed, in 1889) was passed in
this state applicable to all foreign cor-
porations, providing that “any foreign
corporation sued or impleaded In any
of the courts of this state upon any
contract made or executed in this state,
or to be performed in this state, or
for any act or omfeslon, public or pri-
vate, originating or happening in this
state, which shall remove any such
cause from such state court into any
of the federal courts held or sitting tn
this state, for the cause that such cor-
poration is a non-resident of this state,
or resident of another state than that
of the adverse party, or of local preju-
dice against such corporation, shall
thereupon forfeit and render null and
void any permit granted to such cor-
poration to transact business in this
state." This act was held to be uncon-
stitutional by our supreme court. (See
Mortgage Co. vs. Worsham, 78 Texas,
558.)
There have been other decisions of
the courts bearing upon similar subjeot
matter, and, while I am unprepared to
say that they all sustain the doctrine
announced in the case mentioned. I am
of the opinion that the amendment here
proposed would be rejected by the
courts. It is not questioned that the
state may impose reasonable terms
upon foreign corporations and require
them to obtain permits to transact their
business within the state, but I do not
believe that it could go to the extent
of shutting the door in the face of an
effort to obtain justice and closing its
courts to preclude the assertion of such
a right as to make an application for
a change of venue, to say nothing of
the propriety of maintaining good feel-
ing and comity as between the states
and the federal government.

Then he asserted that Denton county

Austin, Tex., April 24, 1985.
To the Secretary of State:
I disapprove and herewith transmit
house bill No. 187, entitled “An Act to
create and establish a ‘Confederate
woman's home’ for the indigent wives
and widows of the ex-Confederate sol-
diers and sailors .of Texas, and to make
an appropriation for the maintenance
of the same, and to provide for a gov-
erning board."
I give notice and publicly proclaim
that I object to this bill, and it is
hereby . vetoed for the following rea-
sons:
It is in conflict with section 51, ar-
ticle 3, of the constitution. This is
made manifest by reference to the orig-
inal section 51 as incorporated in the
constitution of 1878 in connection with
the amendment thereto adopted in 1894
and the one adopted in 1898.
The original section mentioned reads
as follows: “The legislature shall have
no power to make any grant or au-
thorlze the making of any grant of
public money to any individual, asso-
ciation of individuals, municipal or
other corporations whatsoever; pro-
rendered, while in Denton county the
sum was 1197,270. Then he cited the
report of the comptroller of the cur-
rency showing that the banks of Bexar
county had 815,000,000 on deposit, while
those of Denton county had 81,000,000.
leaving this branch of the subject,
Mr. Hill argued that a raise In the ad
valorem rate to 25 cents was necessary
in order to properly provide for the
support of the state government; but
upon the other hand he said that he
would oppose any measure to raise the
rate for the succeeding year, as it
would place the burden upon the peo-
ple permanently. His speech was
bright and witty, and he dealt some
sledge hammer blows which were
heartily applauded.
The bill was ordered engrossed by
a vote of 68 to 40.
The resolution of Mr. Terrell of Mc-
Lennan calling upon the governor to
submit platform demands was read
for the second time, but Mr. Terrell
allowed it to go over again subject to
call.

New York, April 25.—An increase of
3 to 6 per cent in the premium rates
for policies which do not confe/ upon

the dividends of the company has been
put into effect by four of the largest
life insurance companies in this coun-
try. The new rates of the different
companies are essentially the same.
On ordinary life policles the increase
over old rates is between 5 and 6 per
cunt. This is the largest,inerease. On
limited payment life and- endowment
policies the advance is between 3 and
5 per cent, varying somewhat according
to the age of the assured. The advance
tn rates follows complaints made by
holders of participating policies that

Th® Auto as a Nerve Cure.
The possession of a motor car is a
matter of great imporrance to the man
whose nervous system is on the rack all
day. The mere rapid transit from the
town to the country rests the brain and
allows of that mental recreation which
is always the chief object of change of
scene. The motor, then, is one of the
modern aids to preventive medicine.
As a curative agent, however, the mo-
tor has a peculiar value. in certain ab-
normal conditions of the nervous sys-
tem more especially. In cases of nerv-
ous depression the exhilaration induced
by a run in a motor car is most bene-
ficial: the circulation is Improved, the
blood purified by the more rapid respir-
ation of fresh air; and even in cases of
pronounced insomnia regular and re-
freshing sleep is obtained. In a word,
the effect* of motoring are stimulative
and tonic.
