WHAT TRUE MERIT WILL DO.

The unprecedented sale OF Boschee's Ger
man Syrup within few years has aston
ished the world. 1t is without doubt the
safest and best remedy ever discovered for
the speedy and effectual cure of Coughs,
Cold and the severest Lung troubles. 1t
acts on an entirely different principle from
the usual prescriptions given by Physicians,
as it does not dry up Cough and leave the
disease still in the system, but on the con-
trary removes the cause of the trouble, heals
the parts affected and leaves them in a
purely healthy condition. A bottle kept in
the house for use when the diseases make
their appearance, will save doctors bills
and long spell of serious illness. A trial
will convince yon of these facts 1t is posi-
lively sold by all druggists and general deal.

of bright, talented little boy, eleven years

reading and rendering music is wonderful.
He can lead in any song in Hymns and
Praise" although from his native modestY
and appearance, you would not Think that
he was possessed of so much ability. He is
an example worthy Of imitation by the entire
Sunday School.

TRIED EVERYTHING.

He had worked at all vocations and had tried all
equations,
But was always impecunious and "broke."
Been a specializing broker, and funny man and
joker
And his life had been one melancholy joke.
He had been quack physician and great from.
bone musician,
And had worked upon the sewer for year,
Been doctor, lawyer, pastor, and famous dane,
ing master,
An editor and scribe and auctioneer;
been pioneer and squatter, and lived Oh bread
and water,
While writing for the leading magazines;
Been an artist, SCULPTOR painter, and waXed thin
ner, weaker, fainter,
On cultured Boston diet of baked beans;
Tried astrology and magic, been an actor fierce and
tragic
AS a travelling organ grinder passed the hat:
Been an African explorer, who would talk and
talk and bore yer,
And had travelled far and wide like Daniel Pratt.
He had been medicine mixer with his "Vital Life
Elixer,n
And dealt in pellets, purgatives and pills.
Been scientific healer and porus-plaster dealer,
And could cure all diseases aches and ills
He had run an elevator, been prestidigator,
And the famous bearded woman at the show;
Been medium and diyiner, and fisherman and
miner,
But in none Of his employments made "go.''
But the hero of my ditty settled down in New York

Was elected to the alderman char,
And now he's sleekand corpulent, and very rich

that. But what more have we gained by
this process! Have we not thus gained
IN additional three feet for the fall of our
sewers, as certainly as if we had first
filled the space between Pecan street and
the river, and laid the sewers in the new
and expensive work? Certainly we have.
But what more have we gained by thus
lowering the river surface? We have thus
raised the level of the city adjacent to
the river, so as to require rise in
the river of three feet more than
was ever known to enable the water to
reach the high water mark now established,
and thus have averted pending danger
from floods, to new and splendid build
ings that did not exist, when the flood
last reached point, which, if l am cor
rectly informed, would interfere seriously
with the good order and condition of
Messrs. Newman's and other valuable
stocks in that portion of the city.
But what more shall we have gained by
reducing the river level? We have in
creased the very narrow limit, as given re-
Gently in inches, between flood line or high
water mark, and the bottom cord of the
county bridge,and thus removed the posi-.
bility of its being toppled into the cur
rent and destroyed, by the easy accumula-
ton of drift at flood time.
But what more, and of even greater
value, have we accomplished by this work,
when it is done? We will have shown to
the whole world that Austin had men who
were equal to an important occasion, who,
with their own brain and muscle and mon
ey, seized the opportunity, and improving
it, will have furnished to coming thous-
ands, who will live with us and bring their
capital, and who will occupy our places
when we have been forgotten in the lapse
of time; we will have furnished them
city in which to live, that is crowned with
the splendid capitol of the grandest state,
and which city is at once the most beauti-
full and healthful among the thousands.
If any one can do this work as well and
at less expense than 1 shall propose, if
opportunity is offered, let him have it. l
will pledge now, to aid him much as
any individual in Austin, if he will accept.
But let us go to work right and have
the sewers. We have water works; we need
sewers also.
Now, please do not publish empty arti-
Giles containing slang, and pass them off
as reputation or ridicule of this. If any
gentleman has facts or better plan, with
which to combat my position, or contra
dict one single suggestion, welcome him

AQUICK RECOVERY.

Itgives us great pleasure to state that
the merchant who was reported to be at
the point of death from an attack of
pneumonia, has entirely recovered by the
use of DR.. VIM. Halls Balsam for the
lungs. Naturally he feels greatful for the
benefit derived from using this remedy
for the lungs and throat; and in giving
publicity to this statement we are actua-
ted by motives of public benefaction,
trusting that others may be benefited in
a similar manner.
