McKinney, Texas, June 11, 1909.
—Editors Daily Courier-Gazette: In
a laty? issue of The Dallas News
there was a discussion “What to do
with the Old." in which was advocat-
ed the idcH to entrust all into the
safe keeping of their children. Con-
scious that people differ in their
opinions of such a question, which Is
difficult of solution, took the precau-
tion to consult some of the elderly
people who would most likely be
able to aid me in the matter.
Therefore, I will proceed to brief-
ly present the views of myself and
others, for what thej^are worth, in
seeking to settle such a complex
question. We (lo not assent to the
plan advocated in the editorial of
The News, the idea of entrusting the
old to their children. Experience
has taught us that such a course is
unwise and hazardous because there
are too many examples which prov-
ed as a rule to have ended in fail-
ure. It is against the natural laws
of our creation, which Is exemplified
In sacred lore In these words:
“When 1 was a child I thought as a
child, now I am a man I put away
childish things.” Old people are
"sot” in their ways, and to attempt
to live in the same house with their
children who actually enjoy the con-
stant uproar, fuss, noise from crying
babies, frolicking little ones would
make the lives of their grandparents
anything but happy. Besides, the
present ideas of living in this fast,
extravagant age of the young people
does not conform to the simple eco-
nomical habits and ways of thinking
of the old people raised in the pio-
neer days in a more primitive age.
A prominent Jurist and lawyer and
an old Confederate soldier said he
would advise all the old people, un-
less they had money to throw to the
birds, so to speak, to keep their prop-
erty in their own hands as a nest
egg until they were called to make
their exit to that other bourne where
no traveler has returned. We fur-
ther submit such a complex question
to wiser hands to give a better anal-
ysis of it. AARON COFFEE,

Mrs. J. II. Anderson, 22U W. Polk
St., Greenville, Texas, says: “Doan’s
Kidney Pills benefited me greatly.
For several years I had an almost
constant pain in my kidneys, often
extending into my shoulders. I tried
all kinds of remedies In an effort to
get rid of the annoyance but was un-
successful until about three years
ago when my husband Induced me to
try Doan’s Kidney Pills. I used
them as directed and my condition
improved in every way.”

ARM BROKEN.
Young Delegate to (^invention Here
Hnp|MuiN to Accident.
Hay good Peterson of Dallas who Is
here as a delegate to the Epworth
League convention, happened to a
severe accident about noon Friday.
While "cranking” nn automobile his
hand slippeij, letting the crank fly
buck, hitting his left arm just above
the wrist and breaking the bone in
several places. He was taken to the
office of Dr. W. E. Rucker, who set
his arm and the injury bids fair to
soon heal.

The hackneyed expression, "filled
long felt want," might be applied
most appropriately to the flno rain
that fell Thursday, causing every-
body to rejoice. The slow, steady
rainfall, beginning about daylight
and continuing for some four hours,
soaking Into the ground, proved a
veritable godsend to corn, as well as
to other crops, and the beauty o? it
is. every portion of the county and
this entire section seem to have been
similarly blessed. Good rains are re-
ported from Frisco, Prosper, Foote,
Plano, Wylie, Farmersville and oth-
er |K»intB, with a good shower at Al-
len, the first of much consequence
this season, and a light shower at
Princeton, though the latter point ha*
had several good rains recently. Good
rains are also reported from Green-
ville and other ponits east, and on
the north into Oklahoma. Yes, In-
deed they “filled a long felt want.”

there are other things Just as good
as DeWitt’s Kidney and Bladdy*

kidney or bladder, which always re-
sult in weak hack, backache, rheu-

convince you how good they are.

W'ltnesaed Cyclone (loud.
Mrs. Alice Wilson of this city has
received a letter from her sister,
Mrs. J. C. Jones, of Blanket, Brown
county, near the village of Zephyr In
the same county which suffered so
disastrously in a cyclone a few day*
ago. Mrs. Jones and her family saw
the terrific cloud and were prepared
to hear a few minutes later of the
awful havoc to human life and prop-
erty and promptly responded to the
call of distress from the stricken sur
vivors. Zephyr’s catastrophe has ap-
pealed to the entire state. Mr*.

In a recent issue of this paper Dr.
Nott, whose fame is a matter of na-
tional recognition, stated that there
was no cure for baldness. An opin-
ion which is evidently not shared by
all. otherwise the existence of nu-
merous concerns that advertise to
cure baldness, to put hair on a bill-
iard ball, etc., would be imperiled.
What Dr. Nott did state, as reference
to the issue containing nis state-
ments will corroborate, was that he
had never seen in all of the thou-
sands of cases which have passed un-
der Ills notice, one instance where
the disease of baldness had been
cured. But he did state as well that
he cheerfully admitted that there
were remedies that would restore
gray hair to the color of youth, and
that there were Hair Tonics which
would encourage the growth of hair,
cure dandruff and the ordinary dis-
eases of the scalp, he referred par-
ticularly to Q-Ban Hair Restorer
and Q-Ban Hair Tonic. Dr. Nott
states that he will give to any chari-
table Institution named 81,000 on re-
ceipt of any authentic proof showing
that hair has ever been put on a bald
head where the roots were dead.
Since his last statement the drug-
gists have in general laid in a sup-
ply of Q-Ban Hair Restorer ami Ton-
ic. Any one who wants to win the
81,000 that the doctor offers may
send a letter to Q. B. Dept., Mem-
phis. Tenn. He states, and any drug-
gist will indorse the statement, to
the effect if six bottles of Q-Ban
Hair Restorer fails' in a single In-
stance to change gray hair to a nat-
ural color, that if the patient has
used six bottles and the result Is not
as claimed, a letter written to Dr.
Nott will bring back the money ex
pended, and that if a six-bottle lot
of the toufr don’t Increase the growth
and strength of the hair, cleanse
and put the scalp In good condition,
money will also be returned. You
know your druggist —ask him.

ing to fall you can have the first bot-
tle of Q-Ban Hair Restorer free, sim-
