TO the stomach, which is usually inactive, out
of order and oppressed with wind when the
bowls are costive. Use the Bitters also in fever
and ague, rheumatism and kidney troubles.

THE Portuguese are ahead OF their
supposed-to-be more enlightened and
snterprising neighbors in pushing trans
portstion matters in Africa. While the
French and Belgian schemes in the Sen
egal and on the Congo river have hung
fire or aborted, the Portuguese have
been doing business. They have sur
veyed two hundred and fifty miles of
their trans-African route, and track lay
ing from Losnda is about to begin. The
company has capital OF 100000, in
terest guaranteed by the Portuguese
government. The road will run through
the heart of Angola, and has tributary
to it the very garden Of the west coast;
populous, fertile and, for Africa, un-
usually healthy.

A Remedy for Lunu Diseases.

Mr.. Robert Newton, late president of
the Eclectic College of the city of New
patients, now living, and restored to
health by the use of this invaluable med
icine, can amply testify. He always
said that so good a remedy ought to be
prescribed freely by every physician as
sovereign remedy in all cases of lung
diseases. 1t cures consumption, and
has no equal for all pectoral complaints.

ENCOURAGE home industry, and en-
courage all industry to make its home in
your city. Every business man, me-
chanic, owner of property and specu-
lator in San Antonio should have this
motto printed and pasted in his hat. He
wants it now. He will want 1t there
for whole year, and possibly several Of
them. Encourage home enterprises.
Encourage them by word Of mouth, and
by deed as well. There is large need of
rewriting the industrial history of the
Old Alamo city or, rather, OF making an
industrial history worth writing. The
opportunity has long been hers. Her
climate, water privileges, location, unex-
ceptional healthfulness, all conspire to
make her the most desirable spot in
Texas. Industrial enterprise is all she
needs, and that she shows some signs Of
possessing. Let the cloud now arising
as large as a mans hand grow until it
shall spread over all her Industrial sky.
Encourage home industry.

BAVARIA Is very grayely disturbed
over the suicide Of Ludwig, and serious
disturbances are threatened. The
autopsy made Of the kings brain has re-
yealed such conclusive evidences fmen-
tai arrangement, that the effect upon
the pOpulace, who feared foul play, will
doubtless be quleting. The regency OF
Prince Luitpold has been assented to
unanimously by the council, and their
will be no opposition to his regency.
Letters Of coincidence have been re-
ceived from Germany, Austria. Eng
land and Russia, and King William, OF
Prussia, has sent his personal assurances
Of support to the new regent. Alto
gether, it is a sad chapter in Bavarian
history. Her popular king dead by his
own hand his confidential friend and
physician drowned in the struggle TO
save his royal master, not without evil
dence that the insane kings own hand
prevented the attempt ; the rightful heir

An Amusine Argument.

An amusing incident occurred on Sat
urday. A popular news agent, who Is a
BritisheT, possessed Of all national dog
mRtism characteristic Of his race,
showed a customer a stereOscOpio view.
That customer being very shoTt.sighted
changed the focus from which the news
agent had seen 1t TO one where he could
see 1t as clearly and well. The news
agent contended that his customer could
not see what he did see, and spent some
time In vain endeavor to prove what
he could not possibly know. This re-
minds the writer OF the story told of a
man who was confined In the stocks and
when he told a friend what he had
been put there for, he disputed it and
said they could not put him there for
that offence, but the man in the stocks
answered, "HaDg it man, Pm here" OF
course that settled one question as con-
clusively as the stereOscOpic question is
settled
