A MIRACLE IN TEXAS.
Inve stigated by the Texas Chris.
tian Advocate and Vouched
for by DR.. @. r. Stans-
bury.
Crrom the Texas Christian Adyocste.)

tFrom the TeXaS ChrlStldn AuYOcateD
Our representative has made careful in.
vestigation of the H. E. Spaulding case at
Longview, which is here published for the
first time, and which will be read with great
interest by medical men everywhere In
reply to the Christian Advocates questions
MIR. Spaulding said: About eight years ago
while running q locomotive l contracted
sciatic rheumatism in my left side from
my hip Down. 1t came on slow but sure
and in a few months lost control en-
tirely Of that member, it was just the same
as if it was paralyzed, Il was totally unable
to move out OF my room for year and q
half, six months of which time / was bed
ridden. l tried every remedy suggested,
and had regular physicians in constant at
tendance on me. was bundled UP and sent
to Hot Springs where spent three months
under the treatment of the most eminent
specialists, all Of which did me no good,
and came back from the springs in worse
condition than when l went. / came
home and laid fat on my back aud
suffered the most excruciating agonies,
screaming in pain every time any
body walked across the roor1 the only ease
obtained being from the constant use OF
opiates. After three months of this kind
OF agony, during which time my entire left
leg perished away to the very bone, my at
tention was called to 4 new remedy called
Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, by
Mr.. Allison who is now train dispatcher at
Texarkana, and who was relieved CT loco
motor ataxia of twenty years duration. AT
his urgent and repeated solicitation l con-
sented to give them trial, after taking a
few doses began to improve. l continued
taking the pills and kept right on improving
until L was finally cured. My leg is just the
same siz,s now as the other one, and 1 am
sure that Pink Pills not only cured me but
saved life.
The reporter next visited DR.. c. II. Stans-
bury, graduate of one of the medical
schools of Kentucky, and a man who en-
Joys the confidence of everybody in Long
view. He said: II kn ow that MIR. Spauldin9
had a terribly severe attack of sciatic rheu-
matism of which tried to cure him. used
everything known to my profession in vain
and finally recomm ended him to go to Hot
Springs. He came back from the springs
worse than when he went and thought IL
was only a matter of time until his heart
would be affected and he would die. also
know that his cure is the direct result OF
the use of DIR. Williams Pink Pills"
THAT IS rather an unusual statement Tor
q regular physician to make, DOCTOR"
II know it is, but a fact is q fact, and
there are hundreds of people right here III
Longview who know what ! say is the
truth. l also know Mr.. Allison and know
that he was relieved of a genuine and severe
case Of locomotor ataxia Of twenty years

A Patriot,

He said he thrilled with patriot zeal
for his beloved nation. The grand, old
glorious commonwealth thrilled him with
admiration. He loved his land with
love divine, such love as patriots cher
ish, his life for it he would resign, yield
up his breath and perish. He loved
with fervor unconhned its laws and
constitution, and all his heartstrings
were entwined around them in profu-
sion. But then his wrath couldn't be
appeased, his oaths were loud to hear.

MxSoGYNY GONE MAD.
A Wealthy Bachelor who VIII Allow NJ
Woman In His Apartments.


A fashionable lady was looking at
some Fifth avenue apartment the other
day that for elegance and exclusiveness
are not to be equaled anywhere In the
city.
None but the rich, however, can hope
to enjoy life IN such.
She was particularly delighted at the
glimpse caught through an open door
of a suite whose superb drawing room
windows gave to the lucky occupant
an extensive command of the stately
stretches of Fifth avenue. She sought
to enter but the janitor stopped her
respectfully, but firmly.
You cannot go in there, madame"
he said.
"Why not, pray?" haughtily; ''thc
apartments are empty"
Quite right" observed the man,
with the deepest humility, but al
though the tenant is away, he has
given the strictest orders that no wom-
an shall ever be allowed to enter his
rooms. may as well say that during
his possession no female person has
ever crossed the threshold"
The lady turned without another
word and walked toward the elevator.
followed by the protesting attendant.
Her curiosity was aroused, however,
and she could not forbear another
question, which was as to the identity
of this communicating tenant. The
man mentioned a name well known in
exclusive society circles.
II cannot imagine how he could ever
order such thing" observed the fair
visitor, incredulously.
-'Well, ma am, there's not even
scrub woman or house maid allowed in
there. All the cleaning is done by his
Wallets, and they tell me that their mas
ter says all women are devils, and that
he'll keep them out of his living place

No Substitutes

For Royal BakingPowder. The "Royal.
is shown by all tests, official scientific, and prac
tical, stronger, purer, and better in every wav
than all other Baking Powders It's superiority
is privately acknowledged by other manufac-
turers, and well known by all dealers
If some grocers try to sell another baking
powder in place of the "Royal," it is because of
the greater profit. This Of itself is good evidence
ofthe superiority Of the Royal" To give greater
profit the other must be lower cost powder, and
to cost less it must be made with cheaper and
inferior materials, and thus though selling for the
same, give less value to the consumer
LOOK with suspicion upon every attempt to palm off
upon you any baking powder in place Of the
Royal" There is no substitute for the Royal"

H~aesrfsmilias Takes Their Boy on Her
Hands for just Ono Day.
A Chicago wife and mother had a
proud moment the other day. 1t was
the sequel to many humiliating occa-
sions when her husband had remon-
strated with her concerning their in
liant son James. Every mother will
recognize the conversations which tool
place at these times.
MARY" her husband would say,
glancing up from his paper, 'you
shouldn't put Jimmie off in that way.
You ought to answer all his questions.
You mustn't say 4 don't know 1t
ought not to seem too much trouble to
explain to him the things he asks
about"
meekly.
Having been at home all day during
the entire four years of the infants ex-
istence, while her husband had seen
the child only for an hour now and
then of an evening, Mary felt that
much might be said on the question.
but she refrained. Now, it came to
pass that one day not long ago Alfred
announced condescendingly that he
was going to take q day of and escort
Mary and Jimmie to the fair. He felt
that he wa doing a 'prodigious thing,
n he showed what he felt Mary
was properly impressed. Jimmie, too,
evinced much Joy. That morning Mary
said to her husband:
Now. Alfred, I'm just going to turn
Jimmie over to you to-day. You an
swer his questions and explain things
to him."
'All right" exclaimed Alfred glow
ing with conscious virtue.
They were going down to the grounds
ON the "whaleback" steamer, and for
five minutes or SO after starting Jim
mic sat perfectly still. petriAed
by tho new experience. Alfred
was aggressively complacent. He
said that Jimmie was a model
OF good behavior; no trouble at
all. Never saw such a quiet child; 1t
couldn't be any task at all to take care
OF him every day and all day. Mary
bided her time. So did Jimmie, but
not for long. Very soon, he said in
his infantile drawl. and with a man
ner that was childlille and bland:
Papa, II we should meet a whale,
how would the whale know that this
boat wasn' another whale?"
Alfred looked blank.
"Why-er-why-" pause. "Why
why" then Frightening up. "Oh,
he'd see the smokestack on the back
Of this whale, don't you know? That's
1t. He'd see the smokestack."
Jimmie waited a minute. Then
Papa" he said, chow would the
whale know that it didn't have a
smokestack on its own back?"
Alfred hasn't answered hat question
yet, and Mary has received no further
advice on bringing up Jimmie.-N. Y.
