There is no danger of anybody being
troubled with dyspepsia, sour stomach,
Nightmares or i'll temper who uses Fos-
sill -four. Nothing ruins the health so
quickly and surely as bad bread, and
nothing creates so much harmony and
cheerfnlness in a family as good, light
bread and biscuits, "the kind your moth

this is to use Fossil fiour-the best and

ONE THING AND ANOTHER.

A wedding ceremony is never success
unless there is hitch in it somewhere.
There are two things in this life for
which a man is never prepared-twins.
Some women can't believe word their
husbands say--unless they talk in their
sleep.
Mothers get scared 80 easily that the
doctors manage to make considerable
money.
No one seems to have as hard time
earning money as the woman who mar
ries for it.
When your husband calls you an
angel, the chances are that be has been
drinking again.
Any man can make at least one woman
happy for life. All he has to do is to
remain bachelor.

Struck by Lightning.

The Coke funeral in Waco Sunday
was struck by lightning, and the Dali
las News says of it: After the storm
had reached the zenith and obscured
the sun it became very black, and it
was at that juncture that the bolt
descended at lakewood cemetery. 1t
came like great ball of fire. The
pail bearers had just lowered the
coffin and the workmen were covering
the vault. Gov. Culberson, Hon. 10
Abbott and the others were standing
holding the cords and DR.. Burleson
was closing the services when the
crash sounded as if the earth had been
rent. One of the remarkable features
was the calmness of verybody. Those
at the grave stood like pillars, and
their self-possession impaired courage
to the others. A few people uttered
CALCULATIONS of dismay. Ore or two
started to fly. Quiet. was restored,
however, and what might have turned
into tragedy had a stampede set in
caused no damage, the danger being
averted by the GOODNESS OF the leading
actors in the funeral and burial of
Senator Coke.
Lieut.. Gov. Jester was standing near
the grave and felt the shock, and L ear
him stood ex-Govs. Ross and Hubbard,
who had just let go the straps they
used to lower the coffin. Gov. Hub
knees, but was Instantly restored to
MS feet without injury. Judge Rea-
gan was standing in the Inc beside the
grave and did no. feel the shock, but
was dazzled by the flash. Several
ladies fdinlei. The horses in some of
the carriages plunged and struggled.
but most of them were fully controlled.
Two teams got start and ran off, but
the wheels sank in the soft ground and
stopped them before they got far. 1t
was said by some that the grandeur of
the storm added 10 the wonderful
apotheosis accorded Senator Coke by
Texas in giving him a funeral in which
people from all parts of the state par
ticipated.

Miss Tower, a sophomore from Alaba-

whiskey and beer and smoking clgaret-

The Railroad situation.

Six freights were made up last even
ing to go over the break that was sup
posed to be fixed up. and three freights
started gravely out. The first train
was pulled by Shanghai, and as soon
as the big machine got into the wet,
the epginemen began to think they had
struck an earthquake. The road bed
beneath went like ''tickly- bender''
that all school boys in colder parts of
tie country know about. The train
came to dead stop from ''force of cir
cumstances," and then began to settle.
Desperate attempts were made to back
out, but not with any alarming degree
OF pulling from behind the train was
got back to terra tirma, after lively
and reasonable fears that the en-
tire shooting match would toppie over
in the mud, The other two trains had
backed prudent'y into town, and the
remaining three never left the yard
sidings.
The condition of the road bed was
found to be such that all hope of any
very immediate restoration of the
traffic over the track was given up by
cided last night to build around the
washout. Operations began this after
noon with a large force of men. so that
by Saturday the new track will be in
running order, and the costly transfer
ing of passengers, baggage aud express
matter and perishab!e freights will
cease.
The q. II. people seized the material
in the yards consigned to the Corralitos
road, and have been using large
quantities of it in working on the track
