A NEW DISEASE,
Mules and Horses Attacked and Soon

Mules and Horses Attacked and Soon
Die.
The fatal animal disease, charbon,
is creating fearful havoc in Louis
lana adjacent to Natchez. In Ten
sas the loss is now over l5O mules,
and over one half of the balance are
in the hospital. On Newelton Ridge
over IS per cent of all the stock is
affected. The plague is sparing
nothing. In Richland parish it Is
said that even the deer in the
woods are dying off, and two ne
groes have died from it. Unless it
is stopped very soon there will not
be enough stock left to finish maxi
ing the crop.
Major Holman, who is agent for
Wagners Disinfectant and Cholera
Cure, speaks of going into this ter
ritory and distributing his medicine
to see what virtue it will have.
Should he succeed in stopping the
disease his fortune will be made.
He should take the first train to
this locality and make trial.
1t is said Congress will kick the
bucket today after rushing the

Sick stomach means sick man (or

Why not be wellY
Sick stomach comes from poor
food, poor nourishment; means
poor health, poor comfort. Shaker
Digestive Cordial means health and
a we'll stomach.
If we could examine our stomach
we would understand why it is that
so little will put it out of order
But, unless we are doctors, we
never see our stomach. We only
feel it. We would feel it less if we
took Shaker Digestive Cordial.
Shaker Digestive Cordial makes
your stomach digest all the noursh-

toms of Indigestion, acts as tonic
and soon makes you well andstrong

WATER CURE.

Some one has started the idea
that cold water set about the house
in open vessels, Is a powerful alb
sorbent, and will keep down sick
ness when medicine fails. Here is
a paragraph We clip from an ex-
change; you can follow out the d.
rections and see what is in l.;
"Pure, fresh cold water is one of
thejmost valuable disinfectants, in
asmuch as it is powerful absorb
ent. Every sick room should have
a large vessel of clear water, ire
quently renewed, placed near The
bed, or even beneath it. This not
only absorbs much of the hurtful
vapor, but in ITS evaporation 1t
softens and tempers the atmos'
phere, doing away with the dryness
which is so trying and depressing
to an invalid, or even a person in
health for that matter. 1t has
frequently been shown by actual
experiment that troubled sleep
and threatened insomania are cor,
rected by so simple thing as the
placing of an open bowl of water
near the sufferers head.

With a better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills. which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease. but simply to a constipated condi-
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
lv removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
sli important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase. that you have the genuine artl-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment OF good health,
and the system is regular, laXatlves or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
NAV be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need Of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
FIGS stands highest nd is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

BORN BLIND, BUT Now SEEs.-A
dispatch from Bridgeport, Conn, says !:
"Miss Helen Beers was born in New
town forty-nine years ago. She was
bind from her birth, having what is
known rs "coneenitsl cataract" on the
eyes. She can now see. AS girl she
had some perception of light, but no
ability to distinguish figures, aud after
attaining maturity even the ability to
perceive light failed. From her four
teenin to her twenty-frst year she lived
in the Perkins Institute for the blind in
,stor. There she was educated. She
l-arned to read by the raised letters, to
write by The bid CT parallel lines, to
play the piano, and as she was bright
and had u good mind, her education
was equal to That Of other persons with
a similar misfortune.
Miss Beers returned to Newtown and
lived at home, becoming SO familiar,
with her surroundings that she was
able to do all manner of housework.
She kept house for her father for many
years in Newtown. She was familiar
with everything at home, so that she
went about as if she had sight. In her
50ih year it was decided that the
operation for cataract might possibly
help her eyes, and she went to the
Bridgeport hospital, where the opera
ton was performed. 1t was success
nj. Her case row resembles that OF a
person who had been able to see origi
nally, but had become blind through
cataract, and had been operated upe
for that disease. 1; is probable that 81 e
will have permanent sight with one, f
got with both eyes.
The fact that she was born blind,
the length OF thu time she remained
blind, nearly fifty years, her expert
ence as blind woman, and the fact
that she now sees, make the case ex
ceptional.
