lands in the west, and such lands are

A ChiId's Health

depends almost wholly on the mothers,
not only before it's birth but after
wards. A sick mother can't properly
care for her child's health A sick
mother sometimes bears healthy
child, but it isn't to be expected. May
be the baby will possess the appear
ance of health, but will lack stamina.
Maybe innate weakness will develop in
after years. Every woman should be
particularly careful of her health dur
ing the period of gestation-when the
child is really part of herself Dur
ing all this time, she should keep her
body strong and pure and she should
take proper precautions against her
time of labor. For this purpose DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is pres
cribed. 1t has been used in thousa pds
of cases, with the most gratifying re-
suits. 1t is tonic to the whole body,
but particularly to the organs distinct

for childbirth, as to render it almost
painless. It cures all female troubles

font1cai POINTERS
The following is from w. G. Sterrett,
Washington correspondent OF the Dali
las News:
DIR. Grant has been for the past few
days receiving from members OF the
original state executive committee the
| following:
"Dr. John Grant, national commit
| teeman, Sherman: Sir-1, as mem
Der of the state executive committee OF
the state of Texas, hereby under this
instrument empower you as national
committeeman for Texas to voice our
| sentiments and represent US before tue
administration in all matters OF APP
pointments in our state We recog-
nize you as the leader OF the repubil-
on my individual support on the exc
cutive committee during my term OF
Office as state executive committee
man. l am with you and the admin
istration and will stand by you.'
Sixteen Of these letters. just as above
have been received by him, signed by
sixteen mem bers of the original execu-
members, as created by the Fort
Worth convention. 1t will be remem-
bered that an advisory board was Or
ganized by Mr.. Green when he was
made the chairman Of the state eXecu-
. tive committee, and that afterward, as
L understand It, some OF the members
of the executive committee were de-
posed. The members who forwarded
these letters verbatim as above were
of the original committee, but they are
still members of the executive commit
tee, and he has secured the letters to
be used in his fight from the legitim ate
} members of the committee.
There is fight on here which may
be designated as somewhat intense
! over the Abilene postoffice. Mrs.
Morrow, the daughter of Gen. San
Houston, Is one of the applicants for
the position, and most naturally this
! fact arouses a great deal of sentiment
among the Texans.
I Congressman Howley called at the
postoffice department today and made
D a strong presentation of her case. He
, feels that this case is an exceptional
l one. insmuch as Mrs. Morrow is the
: daughter of the hero of San Jacinto,
and as such politics should cut but a
small figure in the matter of her ap-
r pointment. She is Endorsed also by
Mr.. Green, and it is said that the
Texas democratic members OF congress
indorse her, though of this 1 am not
certain, as 1 am not allowed to inspect
papers in the postoff1ce department.
: The other applicant for the position
is Mr.. j. T. Woodson. He is indorsed
by DR.. Grant. It is not certain wher
the appointment will be made, but
from the work being done in the case
it is not at all improbable that actor
will be had on it early in the coming
week.
