CLEAN CHRISTMAS FRUIT CAKE

Customers do not get the small
est portion of their peck of dirt in
our Christmas Cake. 1t is as clean
as it is possible to make it, and it is
just as good as it is clean, only the
very best material being used in its
manufacture. All fruit is washed
by our own process. Particular
care is given to the baking. The
choicest butter is used in making
Christmas Cake, just as it is in our
pastry. Orders have already been
received from many of the best
families in Texarkana. Many Of
them have made their own Christ
mas Cake heretofore but a sample
has convinced them that baking as
we do, hundreds of pounds we can
bake better cake than they can,
and sell it to them for less money
than they can possibly make it for.
1t sells at 25 cents per pound and is
iced with almond icing.

A Kew Years Gift Heralded.

The measureless popularity of
HOstetter's Stomach Bitters has
been the growth of more than a
third of a century. As in the past,
the coming new year will be ush-
cred in by the appearance of a
fresh almanac clearly setting forth
the nature, uses and operations of
this medicine of world wide fame.
1t is well worth perusal. Absolute
accuracy in the astronomical calcu-
Iations and calendar will, as before,
be valuable characteristics, while
the reading matter will include sta
tistics, humOr and general informa-
tion, accompanied by admirably ex-
ecuted Illustrations. The almanac
is issued from the publishing de-
partment of the Hostetter Com
pany at Pittsburg, and will be
printed on their presses in English,
German, French, Welsh, Norwe-
gian, Swedish, Holland, Bohemian
and Spanish. All druggists and
country dealers furnish it without
cost.

RICH AND 6 POOR.
Peculiar and DisaEreeabic Plight of n
Widow In New York.

Peculiar and DisaGrceabic Plight of n
Widow In New York.
There is IL woma in New York today
who actually possesses the round sum of
500, 600 and is nevertheless as poor az
the poorest wretch who has just been
deposited in the street by a not over
tender sheriff and his emissaries because
she has failed to pay her monthly rent.
Though rich enough 10 live in luxury,
she Is at II same time too poor to sup
port herself even in a most modest and
humble amer.
For years she has been "a member Of
society. Hers was the set of people that
think life very much worth living. A
happy girl, "a proud bride, a most for
tunate wife, and finally a we'll provided
for widow, she finds herself within Il
year of her husbands death face to face
with privations that are the common
lot of so many to whom tickle fortune
has never turned her smiling face. And
thereby hangs a tale.
Her husband had been very rich and
was supposed to be a shrewd man. He
met the Waterloo Of his career when he
converted all his savings, some $125,-
900, in the purchase of Columbian
stamps when they were first issued,
with view of selling them afterward at
q premium. He had great expectations,
but they failed to materialize. The
panic came on, and money grew scarce.
People were not buying stamps Just
then. He died shortly afterward, a much
disappointed man, leaving his whole
estate, appraised at 800, 600, to his
wife. This estate consists Of stamps,
from a penny upward.
Now comes what you may call a par.
adox of life. His widow, who has all
her life been accustomed to all the lux.
uries a loving husband and all that
wealth can procure, suddenly found
herself as poor as any washerwoman,
with nothing in this world to support
her but a pair of strong, willing hands.
There were pressing debts, notes over
due and bills galore. The poor woman
was in despair. She tried to sell the
stamps in big patches, but failed to re
alize more than 81, 900, which hardly
covered the expenses of burial and pro
batting the will.
AS a last resort she applied to the
postmaster general, Offering to sell the
stamps or exchange them for others useo
at present. On Oct. Is she received
short reply. 1t stated briefly thai
"neither this department o it's post
masters will redeem or exchange post
age stamps

Killed a Puma With Pocket Knives.

George ". Cooper and a youth named
Nienberger had u desperate encounter
with a mountain lion recently while
driving into Piedmont. Wy. They were
coming in from a lumber camp without
arms of any kind, and when nearing the
city a massive mountain lion sprang
from the underbrush and buried his
fangs in the neck of one of the horses.
The men were dazed for a moment.
Cooper threw a billet Of wood at the IN
truder. The next instant the lion aoan-
doned the team and made for the boy.
The latter jumped sideways and the hon
landed between them. Nienberger had
drawn Il knife, and this he buried in the
throat Of ne brute, while his PAL tner
struggled to release his hand to get ap
other knife from his pocket. He sue
ceeded, and between them the lads dis
patched the lion. Three other lions
were seen TO >calnper away from the
vicinity. st. Louis Globe Democrat.
