mend the TEXARKANIAN for its bold
fight for honesty and good govern

at all times like to have the gooC
opinion of everybody among our
good citizens; we advocate at all
times what we conceive to be right,
aud do not wish any reward except
what we receive by having a good
conscience, and getting that which
we honestly earn. In this connec-
tion we will say that a large
amount Of money is due us on our
weekly subscription book-many
owe from two to six years subscrip-
tion we owe for paper stock, new
printing material, etc, several hun
dred dollars, hence we kindly ask all
who are indebted to us to come for
ward and settle, so as to enable us
to pay what we owe. We do not
like to dun anybody, but being sore.

owe as well as to those owing us.

The Nashville, Tennessee, city

Bryan, on his visit to that city on

keys to two cities and give him per-
mission to Straddle the line of two
of the best Democratic states in
the Union-Arkansas and Texas,
and will also paint the town red in
his honor. He may think he has
had some demonstrations while out,
but he will never know what real
live demonstration amounts to un-
til he comes to TeXarkana, We

With a better understanding of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef-
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 conStipated condi'
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt
ly 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'll the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
qli important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
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 70 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.
