A TERRIBLE LOSS
what the Sudden breaking Down Of
80 many Men and Women Means.

80 many Wen ana women Means
Anyone who has observed, investigated
or read, must have seen that during the past
ten years, the power and vitality Of the
American people have been growing less.
People who once were strong and vigorous
now feel tired and languid. Men who did
not know what fatigue meant, now realize
they cannot stand so much as formerly.
Women who were once the picture of health,
now are weak and often respondent Even
little children in too many cases are puny,
where they should be bright and healthy.
Why is this? The causes are various but
in nearly every case they can be assigned to
the lack of albumen in the system. This
great ife-giving element is present to
greater or less degree in all persons, and
where it is lacking there Is lack of life.
BIT some one asks "How can albumen be
impaired to the systemp" By keeping the
body in proper condition for absorbing and
retaining the albumen that is taken into the
system. This can only be done by properly
stimulating the faculties and organs that
absorb albumen.
1t was the realization of the above truths
which caused some eminent scientists a few
years since, to undertake series of expert
ments. These experiments were conducted
with the greatest skill and care, and resulted
in the discovery of a preparation, which
taken into the body, stimulates the proper
organs to assimilate albumen, thus adding
life, banishing disease and inparting health
to the entire system. This great prepare
ton, so discovered, was Volina Cordial. 1t
is pure, harmless yet powerful compound,
containing just those vegetable elements
necessary to retain health and prolong life.
1t is undoubtedly doing more to impart new
life and activity to the race, than any other
discovery Of modern times. 1t is stimu-
lating, invigorating and yet contains no
element that can, in the least, harm even q
child.
These are facts not given at random, but
serious and earnest truths, confirmed by
scientists as well as by experience. There
are hundreds of men and women in their
graves to day who might have been alive and
happy, had they known these truths and
acted upon them in time and it is painful
10 think of the intense suffering, terrible
sickness and vast number of deaths which
might have been avoided, if people had only
realized and known.

The Austin Statesman was about as
fair as a democratic journal well could
be in Its report of a republican candl-
dates speech, particularly when that
speech bore so heavily upon democratic
Encouragement as did DR.. Cochrane's
recent speech in that city. In one thing,
however, the Statesman grossly mistook
the speaker or misrepresented him. In
Its reference to that part Of DR.. COoh-
rams speech which referred to Chinese
labor, the Statesman's report is to the
effect that the candidate for governor on
the republican ticket approved Of
Chinese labor. On the contrary, DR..
Cochrane expressly said, "Ifin his power
he would build wall Of fire to keep
