INSTITUTION FOR THE BLIND, I
AUSTIN, May 10, 1888. !

DrS. IOD1n:
Your "Hepatozone" as a gentle
pllrgative has no equal. 1t moves
the bowels without making the pa
tient feel sick, weak or languid. 1t
is often the case that we feel little
bilious, have some headache perhaps,
and are feeling unWen generally, and
only need an easy purgative to relieve
us; your "Hepatozone" is the medi-
cine for that condition. 1 relieved a
case of dysentery with it in very
short time. We use it largely in this
institution. FRANK RA.NEY,

tasteful and is unattended with pain
in its operations.

Meeting Of. Mexican War Veterans.
At meeting of the members of the
Association of Soldiers of the Mexi-
can War, at Austin, Texas, on the 10th
inst, the president, Gen. N. G. Shelly,
in the chair, the following proceedings
were had:
Upon motion of Maj. A.J.Dorn, Co.'s:
Bethel Coopwood, J. X. Holland and
Edward w. Stands were appointed
committee to draft resolutions ex-
pressive of the will of the association
touching congressional action IN
granting pensions to the survivors OIL
the late war with Mexico.
This same committee were request
ed to report resolution expressive
of the sense of this association touch
ing the death OF our brother and
comrade, Capt. Robert Josselyn.
The committee reported as follows:
To Gen. N. &. Shelley Pr sident of the Texas
Association of Mexican War Veterans:
Your committee appointed to draft
resolutions expressive of the Will OF
this association, touching COMPRESSION
al action in granting pensions to the
survivors of the late war with Mex
leo, beg leave to report the following:
Whereas, The results and advant-
ages derived by our government from
| the eminent services of its soldiers
who were engaged in said war are so
| vast, and
Whereas, All civilized nations grant
gratuitous pensions as rewards for
services even less important, usually
doing so at the close of the war or the
end of the term of service in which
| they are rendered, as a recognition OF
their Importance and an expression OF
the nations gratitude to and appre-
citation of the gallant men who per-
formed them; and,
| Whereas, So many of those who
participated In said war have passed
away during the thirty-five years since
it closed, without any public act being
passed by the legislative department
of the government so recognizing thei
services, or expressing the peoples
gratitude to them, therefore be 1t
Resolved, LIST. That we, the mem
bers of the Texas Association of Wa
Veterans, join our comrades through
out the land in renewing our just ap
peal to- the congress for the passage
of some appropriate act granting tc
the surviving soldiers of the war, an(
suitable gratuitous pension in re
spouse to the recognized will anC
magnanimity of the great masses o
the people of the country.
I'd. That this request is made tn
more urgent by reason Of the grea
age to which all survivors of said wa
. have attained, and the Importance o
such recognition and expression 0
the peoples appreciation of and graft
tude for their services while some o
, them are yet living.
| Sd. That we also appeal to the rep
resentatives and senators of Texas il
! congress to use their utmost endeavor
to procure the passage Of an appro
pirate act on this subject.
4th. That these resolutions b
! forwarded by our delegate
to the meeting of our nation
al association to be held a
Washington city on the 9th, 9TH an
9Th of December next, and that cop
, of them be delivered to the Hon. Joh,
! Hancock, to be used by him and tn

tors from Texas in congress in Pre-
: curing the desired legislation. All c
which is respectfully submitted.

Drs. ]. j. g. w. II. Tobin:
Dear Sirs-Your HepatoZone has
had a rather extended trial in this in
stitution, among officers and pupils;
it has proven a safe and certain RENE
dy in affections of the liver. 1t is
also valuable and cheap aperient.
1t removes constipation of the bowels,
relieves indigestion, and can be taken
at any time without any bad effect.
l cheerfully recommend its use In all
cases involving arrangement of the
functions of the liver, and in many
cases where the stomach and bowels
are involved. Truly yours,
JOHN FORD. Supt.
From prominent physician OF
Travis county
DR.. w. II. Tobin, Austin, Texas:
After having made numerous trials
of Hepatozone am induced to recon-
mend it. 1t is without doubt most
valuable remedy. 1 have been salts
fed with the results obtained where
have used it. l find that it acts
very promptly in arousing the secre
lions and relieving engagement o.
the most important organs OF thu
body. When its medical virtues are
more generally known 1 believe i
will be kept in most families.
