come a physical wreck. The man who
neglects the little headaches, the loss of
appetite and sleep, nervousness, hot flush
ings, cold chil1s, heavy head, lax muscles,
and the multitude of bad feelings that are
the heralds of approaching sickness and
disease, must pay a tremendous penalty.
For men who suffer in this way there is
no medicine equal to DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t sharpens the ap-
petite, corrects all disorders of the diges-
ton, invigorates the liver. makes the as
similation of the food perfect, purifies the
blood and enriches it with the life giving
elements that build new, healthy flesh. 1t
is the great blood-maker and flesh builder.
1t cures % per cent. of all cases of con-
sumption and is the best of all known
remedies for nervous troubles. Thousands
have told, over their own signatures, the
stories of the wonders it has performed.
Honest dealers will not urge substitute
for the sake of little extra profit.

Gold of the AZtecs.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
The discovery of Mr.. William Niven
of this city,Of important evidence OF
the past civilization Of the Aztecs and
related tribes las been verified on the
arrival of the explorer In the capital OF
Mexico. He found in q remote corner
IF the state of Guerrero q number OF
prehistoric ruins and sealed ossuary
containing skeletons. He has incident
ally found new silver mines and promls-
ing placers, the. latet perhaps redlscov-
cry Of dig gings from which the Aztecs
drew their wealth. IL needs that only
nalf which is on record of the Aztece
in Montszuma's time be true to indie
ate that golt was the cOmmonest OF
their METALS. They did not hold it in
the value that Europeans gave to 1t,
aud this fact enabled COrtez and his
followers to rob these people In royal
fashion. Shields, helmets, &C ps, brace
lels aud nuggets were delivered In ex-
change for promises and fri ndshtps
that were as empty as the promises OF
Spain have ever been. After enrich
log Cortez the natives found themselve Q
at his mercy, their Emperor q captive,
their temples despoiled, strange images
set up in public places before which
they were compelled to bow snb worsh-
in and in the end the Spaniard possess
ed the land. In Peru and adjacent
,tates similar dramas were enacted,
and the white man gained his power
by the copious shedding of blood. It
is not improbable that when the gree d
of the invaders for the yellow metal
vas discovered the Aztecs and other
native tribes desisted from the mining
of it,hoping by representations that
the supply was exhausted to keep the
troops with their swords and thunder
ing csnons from any further advance
into there country. 1t does not take
long in q tropical country for flooded
banks to clothe themselves afresh in
vegetation; thence in q few years the
token of placer mining would have
dissppeared,s and after the people had
been driven to other parts of the coun-
try,o had been occupied in the geper-
al defense, these beds Of gold bearing
gravel would be forgotten. Their dis
covery,if such it s,may prove to be inn
portant-not so much SO as the Klon-
dixie, probably, for much has already
been taken from them;yet not insigni-
fcant, since modern methods insure q
larger return for labor than the oil
way. which vas nothing bnt the pick
ing of nuggets from the streem beds.
American capital will probably develop
these mines, and we may have q need
of gold in the next few years.

Our Sunny South.

Last night the HERALD reporter met
q stranger from Chicago, who was try
ing to enjoy the concert, but he was too
cold to get much pleasure out of it. He
said to the HERALD man: 'This is the
first time that l have ever been this
far south and I was led to believe that
I would roast. Now, if these nights
are samples of your summer nights 1
think I'll put on heavier clothes, as l
fail to zee the Sunny South side of

Pear Trees.

j. A. Durkes, successful pear
grower of Missile uri, in a paper recent
~ read before horticultural society
should be headed low. He does not
trim nor even thin out the trees ek-
cept to remove dead or blighted
branches. He thinks that the more
wood of comparatively slow growth a
tree makes the less there is of blight.
The greatest mistake made by pear
growers is planting in too rich sol and
giving the trees too much care. While
fine fruit is produced by such means it
must be foreeone if it is desired to save
the trees.-Texas Stock

Fertilizlng the Orchard.

There is reason for believing that
the orchard needs fertilizing even
more than the ordinary field crops. A
latter is returned TO the soil each year
The plant food that ia taken up in the
orchard is taken away from the soil
forever. None is returned to it. It is
estimated that in single season an
acre of apple trees will draw from the
soil 40 pounds of nitrogen, 80 pounds
of phosphoric acid and y pounds OF
potash. These must be returned or
the productivene 50 of the orchard will
be lost.-Texas Stock and Farm Jour

THE GRAND ORDER OF THE
ORIENT,

is the name of a secret organiza
ton in Shreveport which is viz
tually taking the day over all 9th
ers. Though but few months oil
here, its membership is now abou
sevenly-fve, While application
are coming in at the rate of four
five and six at each meeting
These are held weekly, on Frida,
nights, and are, by far, the hes
attended of any order in the city
Until quite recently, few in on
city knew there was such an insti.
tuition here, now it is common
street talk, with queries as to wha
it is, what it means, and what arc
the Intentions Of it?
The initiatory ceremonies are
exceedingly impressive, each part
being profoundly marked upon
the candidates mind. He has a
vivid consciousness of each of
these Oriental ceremonies, but is
so favorably impressed that he is
the most eager of any to see that
others may be as fortunate as he
in enjoying such rare privileges.
Just at first the novitiate is apt
to feel that he is quite assinine;
but when the explanation of East
ern customs and ceremonies are
explained to him he feels better
satisfied; more especially if some
other pilgrim is soon to follow in
his footsteps.
There is some levity in the ini-
tiatory ceremonies, enough to
make it lnteresting-to the mem
bers of the Order especially; and
this is one Of the reasons why it is
becoming so popular. Thoughtful
men are in the various positions Of
Office, and not infrequently-onl
as a precautionary measure, of
course-can be heard the deep and
profound injunction, "BE Sc
RIoUS."
But fun is by no means the sole
object Of this order. To the con-
trary. it is not only d benevolent
association, paying sick and burial
benefits, but it is even now at work
on arrangements to have a big pa
geant street parade and trades and
business display in Shreveport on
the next Mardi Gras festival. The
committee Of arrangements has
been appointed, and has
gone actively to work. This is
intended te be one one Of the finest
efforts of Shreveport's life, and
even to excel anything that has
ever taken place here.
Scme OF our very best men are
now members and others have
filled out their applications to be-
come members. The minimum
age for membership is Is years.
This is intended to blend the vi
7acity of youth, the vigor of young
manhood and mature Judgment of
niddle-age, so as to make per-
ect type of the genius and accom-
)lishment of man.
Let every citizen throw his moral
md financial force to the assist
lnce of this order. This has been
arranged for so that those who do
lot desire to enter fully into the
membership may do SO on this
wise: By the payment of Sis cash,
me may become an honorary
This will entitle him to sit
n the business meetings and take
)art in the discussion under good
# the order. Such members are
ubject to all rules and fines and
lues, but do not have to 20
through with the initiatory ccre-
nony.
rhe present hall is over the Com
nercial National Bank, but it is
asst becoming too small.
