Texas Wants You: You Want Texas.

If you like May weather in winter, apply
to nearest agent of Santa Fe Route. He will
supply it in thirty-six hours. 1t is done by
buying ticket to Galveston or Houston.
Perhaps less expensive than staying at home,
because big coal bill is saved
Regular winter tourist tickets can be
bought any day, but special excursions will
be run the second Tuesday of each month
from limited territory to all points in Texas.
The excursion fare? Cheap enough-a lit
tie over a cent a mile; tickets good thirty
days, with stopovers southbound.
The Gulf coast of Texas is a charming re-
sort for invalids who don't like zero weather.
Big attractions also for homeseekers; twenty
acres of land there planted in pears nets the
owner $1,000 each year after orchard is es-
tablished. Strawberries and grapes also prof
htably raised.
Talk it over with agent Santa Fe Route, or
address G.. L. Nicholson G. P. A., A., t. &

A Curious Coptlc Custom.

The Coptic patriarch of Alexandria
is never allowed to sleep more than
fifteen minutes at any one time, and
If the attendant should allow the

of each quarter hour the patriarch
arises and spreads his rug upon the
floor, kneels upon it, bows his head
three times to the east, and again
retiEes.

MEDICAL writers claim that the successful
remedy for nasal catarrh must be non-irri-
tating, easy of application, and one that will
reach the remote sores and liberated sur
faces The history Of the efforts to treat ca

that is Ely's Cream Balm. This safe and
pleasant remedy has mastered catarrh as
nothing else has ever done, and both physi-
clans and patients freely concede this fact.
