As sensible an utterance as any
that reaches the LIGHT anent the
gubernatorial outlook in Texas is
this from the Center Champions:
Hon T. b. Wheeler is the best sman
out for governor OF Texas. His re
cord is good; he is in the full vigor OF
manhood, and he is III perfect accord
with the progress OF the age. Hon.
J. w. Throckmorton is too old to be
serviceable, although he possesses
every other qualification necessary to
make such a govel nor as Texas needs
J. S. HOgg is probably well enough
qualified, but the danger in his case
would be that he might attempt to
run the state in Hogg's interest, as
he seems to be running the attorney
generals office. We will wait and
sea if some man more to our liking
does announce before pledging our
support to either.
The LIGHT is in the condition of
the man on the fence when his wife
and the bear had the scrimmage

THE democrats OF Kansas seem to
be much more alarmed over Senator

United States senate than the Kan

Kansas will look out for Ingalls, in

neighbOrly and hardly to be expected

THE attorney general of Dakota
and the governor Of Louisiana have
sCruples against the lottery company
Goodwin, of Dakota, bitterly opposes
the granting Of the franchise and
gets his nose pulled for his free COM
ments on the connection of certain
mem bers of the legislature with the
attempt to carry the franchise
through. Gov. Nichols, of Louisiana,
refuses the 100000 offered by the lot
terry company to aid in strengthening
the levees and will do what he can
without the contribution. 1t was a
temptation and as such was resist
ed. Perhaps it was wise, perhaps it
was otherwise, but it certainly was
honest and manly, as the governor
viewed the circumstances.

Diet of Old People.

AS we increase in age-when we
have spent, say, our first half-century
less energy and activity remain,
and less expenditure can be made I;
less power to eliminate is possible at
fifty than at thirty, still less at sixty
and upward. Less nutriment, there
fore, says Sir Henry Thompson, must
be taken in proportion as age advan-
ces, or rather as activity diminishes,
or the individual will suffer. If he
continue to consume the same album
dant breakfast, substantial lunches,
and heavy dinners which at the sum-
NIT Of his power he could dispose of
almost with impunity, he will in
time certainly either accumulate fat,
or become acquainted with govt or
rheumatism, or show signs of I'M
healthy deposit Of some kind in some
part Of the body-processes which
must inevitably poison, undermine
or shorten his remaining term of life.
He must reduce his "intake," be.
cause small expenditure is an en-
forced condition of existence.

How and When to Drink Water.

According to DR.. Leuf, when water
is taken into the full or partly full
stomach, it does not mingle with the
food, as we are taught, but passes
along quickly between the food and
lesser curative toward the pylorus,
through which it passes into the in
testinies.
The secretion of mucus by the lining
membrane is constant, and during
the night a considerable amount ac-
cumulates in the stomach some of
its liquid portion is absorbed, and
that which remains is thick and tena-
cious. If food is taken into the stom-
ach when in this condition, it be-
comes coated with this mucus, and
the secretion of the gastric and its
actions are delayed. These facts
show the value of a goblet of water
before breakfast. This washes out
tenacious mucus and stimulates the
gastric glands TO secretion. In old
and feeble persons water should not
be taken cold, but it may be with
great advantage taken warm or hot.
This removal of theaccumulated mu-
Gus from stomach is probably one Of
the reasons why taking soup at the
beginning of a meal has reen found
so beneficial.

The Best Recommended.

The best recommend skilled me-
chanic can give is Il specimen of his
workmanship and the most satisfac.
tory recommendation for a medicine
is its good effect. Now Smiths Ton
ic Syrup, made by DR.. John Bull, of
Louisville, KY, has been used with
good effect in many thousand instan-
ces. 1t needs no other recommend
than this. 1t does every time what is
expected of it. If used for chills and
fever it cures as certainly and COM
pletely as water quenches thirst. In
many localities it has almost altOgeth-
er taken the place of quinine. 1t has
a surer effect on chills and fever than
quinine, for it has cured many a cses
where quinine did no good whatever,
and then it never produces the after
effect quinine frequently has on the
system, such as nausea in the stom-
och, headache, dizzy sensations, etc.,
When person has once used it in
place of quinine they will ever after
wards prefer it.

Supper Served by EIectrIcir,.

Some new effects in the application Of
electricity were shown at a recent supper
ana dance in Baltimore Two sets of musi-
clans furnished the music. The dancing
rooms were connected by folding doors.
The musicians sat in the hall, and electric
annunciators told them what dances to play,
the leader OF each set of dancers simply
touching electric buttons in their respective
rooms. In the supper room there was
track OF small brass rails, on which was an
electric car or basket about foot long and
30 inches wide. This car conveyed the
Tiands from the buffers pantry. The butler
placed the course in silver trays upon the
car and sent them along the electric rail-
way. The car stopped long enough before
each plate for each guest to help himself.
The car was also supplied with electric bells.
The ballroom was beautifully illuminated
BY incandescentli lights in the shape of tulips,
lilies and other flowers. Under the tables
were music boxes operated by electricity,
which PLAYED during the supper. Not
dropot coffee or bit Office cream was spilled
by the electrical waiter,
