The fad" of beer drinking may look
trivial. II is followed by the " fac" of
kidney disease, as direct consequence.
And that is not trivial. That means the
grave and Is solemn. The situation
would be truly alarming and threaten
the extinction of the race were 1t not
for two things.
1. There is always hope OF reforma-
ton in the hearts of the people. When
the dangerous increase Of kidney dis
ease is sufficiently sounded, there will
be reform. This will assure future
generations.
Q. AS to the afflicted Of to-day, a
knowledge of DIR. FeDner's Kidney and
Baclxache Cure will restore all who are
adroit enough TO resort to it's use before
It Is too late. Also cures female weak
ness, heart disease, rheumatism and all
blood diseases. 1t will neither deceive
nor disappoint. III in need take bottle

DEATH OF AN AGED MASON.
In Memory Of Mr.. Lewis Rolf, Who Died
July nth, 1893.

The gavel has fallen
The Grand Master has called
An aged laborer to refre shment and rest;
The hands that for years
In the quarry have delved
Are now resting in peace on his breast.
Three score years and ten,
With their SORROWS and JOYS,
lie moved on the ocean of Time;
But now, his ark anchored
In the haven of rest,
lie lives in that Heavenly cline.
His assertions were guided
BY the plumb line Of Truth;
Ills pride TO Level was brought,
His conduct was Squared
by the precepts Of Truth,
And the dictates Of enlightened thought.
lie worked in the quarry,
And hewed the rough stones,
'rill n beautiful ASHER appeared.
Tit Type of perfection
lie hoped to attain
When he passed the Grand Tyler the word
The watchword is given.
And 1.-THE Grand TYLER now
Has helped him to pass through the door;
Ard his eyes feast with rapture
On the bright "Blazing Starr
That beams in the center of the floor.
Before the Grand Masters throne
The aged pilgrim now stands, ,.
The welcome applause to receive
"Nell done faithful servant;
Thou art one of the band
Who on the Master did ever believe"
The gavel has fallen
The Grand Master has called
An aged pilgrim from labor to rest;
The hands that for years
In duties have toiled
Are now resting in peace on his breast.
The wife of his youth
Now bowed down with grei,
VIII soon the dark waters pass DER;
Then her grief turned to Joy,
She there will strike hands
With the lovedAones who've gone on before.

He Likes It.

Mr.. w. Stone of Walworth, Lon
don, England, arrived in the city
yesterday, and was warmly re-
ceived and welcomed by his sons,
Henry and Fred Stone. Mr.. Stone
is highly pleased with San An
tonic and so delighted with the eli
mate, as a contrast with Murkey,
London, that he would like to re-
main here if business interests per-
mitted it. AS it is there seems to
be some probability of his selling
out his London business and be-
coming a citizen of San Antonio.

handled remedies that sell as well, or that
have given such universal satisfaction.
We do not hesitate to guarantee them

do not follow their use. These remedies
have won their great popularity purely
on their merits. F. Kalteyer & Son and

teenth amendment to the cOnSti-
ton Of the United States, and at
the time of his election is not a
citizen of Texas and a resident
within the city limits at least one
year preceding his election and who
has not paid a city or county taX,"
should govern all elective and APP
pOintive qualifications of officials.
In that case it is on proof that the
city engineer has only resided in
the city since October, 1892, and
has not been assessed, rather has
not paid any city or county tax.
On either ground the city engineer
would be disqualified from holding
the office to which he was appoint
ed.
The matter will be dealt with in
the city council at their session
this afternoon.
