The Fact is Not Remarkable

When everything is considered. The Mil
burn Wagon company turned out from its
Austin branch during the week ending Au-
gust II, over thirty Jobs of various kinds,
from the Milburn farm wagon to the light,
handsome surry for family use. The Mil
burn people are highly gratified with the
steady increase in their business, and such
might be considered remarkable in the
present dull times of which others are com
planning, were it not that the Milburn peo-
pie do business in a way that demands and
commands big trade.
Not only are the quality of material, su'
periority of workmanship and elegance Of
design to be considered but they make 9
speciality of selling to small merchants, who
cannot afford to buy car tat the CARLOAD
price. This enables small dealers to otiei
the Milburn at less price than other makes
and at the same time give them a bette
profit. The Milburn agency in this cit.
are sending goods to Ballinger, Granit
Mountain, San Marcos and other. places
putting them down at those places a
prices that knock out other dealers in tn
immediate locality. 1t is indeed with diff
Guilty that Mr.. r. D. Cunningham, the Aus
tin agent can keep his stock complete, s.
active is the demand for the various vehi
Giles of Milburn make.

there are those who confirm his statement.
He also claims to have certain ana

its efficacy, it is said, he will let a huge
rattle bury his fangs deep into his neSh

The remedy is vegetable extract ana is

The Keynote of Prosperity.

Corsicana Observer: That editorial
in the Observer last week advocating
the building of district factories to
make cotton bagging, struck the key
note of the situation. Farmers, mer-
chants, mechanics and spectators
compliment the idea. Then why not
begin the work and build the first
factory in Corsicana? A factory to
cost half million dollars could be
built here by thirty counties, if the
farmers who are able to do SO would
come I'D and subscribe to the stock.

deafness Can't be Cured

by local application, as they cannot reach
tie diseased portion Of the ear. There IS
only one way to cure deafness, and that IS
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucus lining of the Eustachian, Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have
rumbiing sound Of imperfect hearing and
when it Is entirely closed, deafness IS the
result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its nor,
NAL condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed
condition ofthe mucus surfaces.
We will give 500 for any case OF deafness,
(caused by catarrh, )that we cannot cure by
taking Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
