and look around this new hostelry.
Upon seeing such elegant furnish

the genial proprietor, Of whom he
purchased them, and was told that
the entire furnishing of this re-

Democratic party of BeXar county,
and the "Big 6" will not be slow to
lead in this revival.
Personal politics has reached a
climax, and party politics will be a
pleasant relief from the bitter ami
mosities bred by personal rivalry
over local positions.
When the next election comes
around the whole country will be
involved in political struggle,
and the tendency will be to draw
party lines. The "Big Six" will be
the Democratic party-or they will
try to be.
The nOn-partiZan combination
that carried Mayor ElmendOr and
his ticket into office, will go to
pieces.
Already the democrats are try
ing to get acquainted with each
other, and are whispering the
names OF possible leaders in the
next county and congressional cam
paign.
The Republicans are not required
to do any extraordinary amount of
organizing, but one thing is essen
tial: they will have to get out OF the
habit OF training with Democrats.

Farewell Address.

The Rev. w. H. Howard delivered
an address in his church last Sunday
week that was of a valedictory nature.
Mr.. Howard referred to his long &C.
euaintance of thirteen years with the
people of this district He referred
with emotion to the affection he nat
urally bore towards those with whom
be had lived for so long; whose sor-
rows and Joys he had known; IN the
vicissitudes of whose fortunes he had
shared. The reverend gentleman as
sured his congregation that wherever
his lot be cast, they might feel that
his thoughts would be with his old
parishioners in this his first charge.
The great difference in the appear
ance of this place between the early
day and this present time was dis.
canted upon, and formed remarkable
proof, emanating from this learned
source, of the progress of this district
He pointed out the large and fruitful
orchards, the fertile field, the number
of houses, the abodes of prosperous
refinement and cultivation, all the
outcome of the last few years of rapit
improvement how different from thir
teen years ago. He would leave u
thus advancing from year to year.

ing that no one need catch cold if he is
willing to give the matter slight atten-
ton; that a cold is the beginning of
chronic catarrh, consumption, disease
of the liver, stomach, kidneys and pei
vic organs. All this could be prevent
ed by taking his advice. The DOCTORS
professional duties compelled him, for
many years, to be much on the road
night and day, by carriage, railroad
and steamboat. During all this time
he never caught cold. This could
not have been done without Pe-ru-na,
he says. AT the slightest evidence of a
cold few doses of Pe-runa invariably
check it.
This is especially seasonabie advice,
for the cold weather is here, with its
storms, sudden changes, slop, rain and
snow. Thousands of people will con-
tract diseases from which they will
never recover, by catching cold, DR.,
Hartman's advice should Be needed.
