How They Got Their RatIOns.

Col. John S. Ford, who is an
old frontiersman and has had in
teresting experiences, details one
this morning that is as amusing as
it is graphic. Said he: "In 1849,
a party was sent out under Major
Majors, Indian agent, to find a
practical road to ElJPaso and we
had as a guide an Indian who mis-
took an old fort of the same name
for Ell Paso and took us off our
proper route and after we left the
Pecos we were nearly starved, and
when we finally did reach settle
ment we were hungry, but several
of the people said they would give
us something to eat if they had
anything to put it in. We got tin
pans and put them in our hats and
whenever they made that excuse
we politely pulled off our hats
and as we made a bow presented
the pans to be filed. The result
was that we got liberal supply,
and when we took notes after
wards we found we had eaten be-
tween the hours of u and 3 p. H.,
40 eggs each besides various other
comestibles.-San Antonio Times.

Deafness Can't be Cured

by local application, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way TO cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucus lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or 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
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases ont of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in d.
famed condition of the mucus surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness, (caused by Ca
tarrh) that we cannot cure by taking

City VS.. Country Boys.

Have country boys, young pusI-
ness men l mean, a conception OF
the advantages they possess over
their city cousins? L fear not
For the most part the idea seems
to prevail that the city boy has
all the opportunities, while the
country boy has only privations
and disappointments. And yet,
when we come to look the business
city over, we find that among the
successful men those of city birth
and training are in the minority,
while those who spent their boy
hood in the country, and COM
menced the race apparently handi-
capped, are in the majority. New
York city is a striking instances i
the fact. The merchant princes,
so called, and the railway mag
mates as they are commonly term
ed, together with those bankers,
brokers, lawyers, doctors, manu-
facturers, judges, editors, inventors
and accountants, with hosts of
others, too numerous to name, who
have achieved the most distin-I
guished success in their special
fields of labor, are not, as a rule,
New Workers by birth and educa-
ton. The leading men, with very
few exceptions in all the walks of
life in the metropolis were educat-
ed outside the city, and not small
proportion of them were country
boys a very few years ago. The
for this are not very hard
to discover. In the first place, the
procession of events before the
gaze of the city boy is so rapid
that he has no time to seize upon
any one thing for himself. If it
be only book or a paper that
comes in his way, it is not priced, |
because of necessity it must make
way for its successor of the NOR
row. Again, business is conduc-
ted on so large a scale that as OBJ
server or apprentice, he can only
become acquainted with a subordi-
nate part. He seldom has the OPP
to study a given bust
ness in its entirety. Opportuni-
hes for amusements are SO many;
and the habit Of indulgence form
cd in childhood is so hard to break, !
hat much valuable time is lost in
that direction; and so might go on
enumeraIIng many oUnoI sl-4ngs
unfortunate to the train
ing of the city for the active re-
sponsibilities of a successful bus
mess.
Last, but not least, the average
city boy has not the physical STAN
ina that hard work, the only meth
cd of attaining success in the bus
mess world, so imperatiyely de-
On the other hand the
country boy has leisure. He has
few amusements, and he prizes,
and therefore studies, the books
and papers that fall in his way.
He finishes one thing before he
takes up another. # lie learns
any business while in the country,
it is one so small in extent, and so
few details, that he comp1ehends
every feature of it. If he has de-

Mr.. T. ii. Ertel, the representa-

pays his first visit to Texas, says
Of tile great state: 81 have trav-
eled very extensively, and 1 never
entered a country that so much
surprised me as Texas. I didn't
expect to see what 1 find here. 1
didn't expect much of the coun-
try and not a great deal of the
people. / thought the country
comparatively speaking, was a
wild, barren waste, where typi-
cal frontier life was the order.
But [ am most agreeably surprised
to find the finest country 1 ever
saw and its people occupy as high
a plane of civilization as any 1 ever
met. Instead of broad expanse
of unsettled country, L see the
finest farms and the farmers all
seem to be prosperous. And here
are cities, that are as promising as
any of the rising commercial CEN
tiers of the country. 1 tell you the
great masses of the people in the
older sections of the country have
no idea of the real grandeur of
Texas. If they only knew the
great richness and resources of
Texas there would be such tide
Of the best class Of immigration to
sweep down upon her as was never
before known in history. 1t is

The Paris Exposition.

Mr.. Sam Risien, a brother Of
Mr.. E. E. Rlsien, of this place, is
on visit to the Paris Exposition,
and writes to his home paper, the
Lime Stone New Era, as follows:
Many of your readers would be
interested in reading a detailed ac-
count of this great Exposition now
open to the inspection of the
world. When I left home 1 pro-
posed to some extent doing so,
but after spending four days inside
the great show 1 find it beyond
any power of mine to attempt a
description in words. 1t is such an
immense grand affair and can only
be comprehended by seeing it.
This also refers to the Eiffei
tower; in particular 1t is wonder
full structure, you can form a little
idea of its size when I say that [
stepped off the ground that the
four legs stand upon and found
that there could be five or six
buildings the size of our court
house, towers included could easl-
ly be placed under one floor. This
floor is a little tower itself and
could easily hold 5000 people, it
contains many eating houses, etc.
The second floor, which is 800 feet
high, contains as well as the usual
eating house, a steam printing
press and prints paper named the
"El Figaro" 1 mail the Era
copy. Among other things it con-
tains a list of visitors to that part
of the tower, all parts of the world
are represented in it including
Groesbeck, such a fine city as we
have, why should it not be?
A splendid view of Paris is to
be obtained at this height. The
pablie is not allowed to ascend
further than this at present, as the
lifts to the top, which are 1000
feet from the ground are not yet
completed. | have beer very
much disappointed in not finding
our great state represented, but a
five days search fails to reveal any
thing from Texas, in fact [ have
only seen the word Texas once in
the whole Exposition, and that
simply among all the states. The
American exhibits are most all
from the northern states, and upon
the whole not-Gcsa -z.1ssSes.ansr- |

Nominations at night are beyond
description, just simply grand in
the extreme. The tower, at night,
is outlined with lamps (gas and
electric) and then suddenly, at the
signal of d gun firing, the whole
thing is lit up with red, crimson,
fire. The effect is immense.
While this is going on, about 1000.
beautiful fountains are playing be-
low, one Of these throws stream
of water to the height of 100 feet.
Each fountain is of different col
or, and changes every minute for
one hour, making each stream in
each fountain a different color at
the same time. All color lights
are thrown from the top of the
tower onto the scene below. The
whole affair can only be compre-
hended by being seen. I Ieazay
