what Sort of Man H- IN, ana what
He has Done.

To the Editor Of the Examiner.
Waco, April 4, 1885.
|, as a citizen of Waco, want to say
a few words to my fellow Taxpayers,
anent the coming city election. For
six years Sturgis was mayor. lie
took the city when it was sadly in
debt, when he retired two years since
there was little or no Indebtedness Oh
the city and there was in sight enough
to meet demands. Now they are is
suing bonds to meet past indebted
ness. The taxpayers are again call
ing for "old Surge to help them out.
am one of 'em. If we went capital
to come here and build up the city and
place manufactures and other enter
prizes on foot, we must keep taxes
down. To keep them down we must
elect a man who has some financial
ability, as well as experience, Sturgis
is that man. No other in the race can
point to any such record of either
private business success or official
triumph as can he. Let every man
having the good of Waco at heart,
vote for L. A. Sturgis. Very truly,
TAXPAYER.

Is comprised in one very simple
piece of advice, improve digestion.
No elaborate system of dietetics is
needed. If you lack vigor, use
Systematically that pleasant promo
ter of it, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. If you take this hint, and do
not commit any excesses, there is
no reason why you should not gain
in strength, appetite and weight -
Hosts of whilom invalids are to-
day building a foundation for years
of vigorous health with this sound
and thorough renovator Of a dilapi-
dated physique and falling energy.
Dyspepsia is eradicated by it, and
the constitution fortified against
disorders to which, if it were ex-
posed, it must surely succumb-
notably malarial fever. Rheuma-

bladder, nervousness, and their va
rious symptoms, disappear when it
is used with persistency, not aban-
