Two Ways. Choose Which !

There are two sual ways of doing what ma
ture sometimes does incompletely, namely, to
relieve the bowels. One is to swallow dras
tic purgRtiVe which eVacua'es profusely, alb.
ruptly and with pam, the other is to take Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, the effect of which
is not violent, but sufficiently thorough, and
which does not grippe the intestnes
II the first is selected, the person
employing 1t need not expect permanent ben
eft and he cannot hope TO escape the debili-
ating reaction which leaves the organs as bad
or worse off than before If, on the other
hand he resorts TO the Bitters, he can rely
upon the restoration or Il regular habit
of body, consequent upon renewal of
healthful tone in the intestinal canal. Be-

THE Waco Examiner Is not unmindful
OF the true inwardress Of the vote con-
firming Lsmsr's appointment when 1t
savs: "The worst feature sbout the
confirmation Of Lamar ss a justice of
the supreme court OF the United States,
IL that Leland Stanford voted for him.
Stanford will have many Interests TO be
passed upon. II the government sues the
men who eviscer8ted the Union Paci-
fic" This Is true. but the infamy goes
deeper. The confirmation OF Lamar by
the votes OF Stanford and ste wsrt mean
simply that the Union Pacific railroad
has secured an attorney in Its interests
upon the supreme bench Of the United
States. The infsmy of the act belongs
to the democratic party.

SAN ANTONIO, February Q, 1888.
Our store for the past few days has been the
scene of curious wonderment, occasioned by
the startling display of the wonderful Nc
CAUsLAND Dish WASHER. We have carefully
noticed the countenances and marked the ver-
dict of each visitor, and all have, as in our
case, stamped it q revolution in domestic la
bors. So, as an act of simple justice to its
agents. Messrs. Sojourner Il Watson, we offer
this as a slight testimonial of our belief in an
article which we pronounce perfect. both in
cheapncss and indispensable utility.

more than one way OF making
money" says an old adage, but making
II out OF bank deposits at the muzzle of
a revolver is not considered just the
thing even In Texas. The robbery Of
the Cisco bank Of $4,000, on last Wednes-
day, In broad daylight, proves that even
this method is sometimes resOrted to,
but how successfully will depend en-
tirely upon the outcome OF the present
chase. According to last advloes, the
robbers are surrounded by 100 we'll arm
ed men, and may have hot time of 1t
getting away with their booty. Win
chesters were trumps on the trail and
the robbers had them. The first batch
OF pursuers who took up the pursuit.
Immediately, had only shot-guns and
could not call the game. The robbers
wasted no ammunitian and are prepared
to fight their way out OF the corral into
which they have been run. Large re-
wards are offered for their capture.
Verify the love OF money is the root of
crime.

Sneezing Catarrh.

aDds who suffer periodically from head colds
or influenza, and who live in ignorance of the
fact that a single application of SANFORD's

But this treatment in cases of simple Catarr
gives but faint idea of what this remedy
will do in the chronic forms, where the breath

blind English cabinet against Ireland
