WHOLESOME ADVICE.
For People whose stOmachs are
Weak and Digestion Poor.


DR.. Harlandson, whose opinion in
diseases is worthy Of attention, says
when man or woman comes to me
complaining of indigestion, loss of
appetite, sour stomach, beIching,
sour watery-risings, headaches,
sleeplessness, lack of ambition and
general run down nervous condi-
ton Iadyise them to take after each
meal one or two of Staurt's Dyspep-
STA Tablets, allowing the tablet TO
dissolve in the mouth, and thus min
gle with the food eaten. The result
isthat the food is speedily digested
before it has time to sour and fer
ment. These tablets will digest
food anyway whether the stomach
wants to or not, because they contain
harmless digestive principles, vege-
table essences, pepsin and Golden
Seal which supply just what the
weak stomach lacks.
Ihave advised the tablets with
great success, both in curing indiges-
ton aud to build up the tissues, in
crease flesh sn thin nervous patients,
whose real trouble was dyspepsia
and as soon as the stomach was put
to rights they did not know what
sickness was.
A fifty cent package of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets can be bought at
any drug store; and as they are not
a secret patent medicine, they can
be used as often as desired with full
assurance that they contain nothing
harmful in the slightest degree; On
the contrary, anyone whose stomach
is at all deranged viii find great
benefit from the use OF Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. They will cure
any form of stomach weakness or
disease except cancer of the stomach.

We were told that it never
rained in Brownsville, but in this
we were misinformed, and a general
expression among the troopers is:
ssMy, will it never stop raining =
Despite the steady downpour a few
OF the boys are out duck hunting.
Among them is Sergeant Major
Archie True. We haven't much
confidence in Archie's ability as a
uarksnan, and the general impress
sion is that he has gone along to
carry the ducks.
The news that the First Texas
Cavalry is to be retained in the Ser
vice was received with much dis
satisfaction by both offcers and
men. Applications for discharges
are being sent through the regular
military channels to the adjutant
of the army, and if granted trumpet
calls and fatigue duty will be 3

Most of the bors have lucrative
positions awaiting their return home
and it is to their interest to return and
secure them. The~Sdea of remain
ing in the army for two years and
doing border service or patrol duty
IN Cuba is very distasteful to US, and
we will hail with JOY the day on
which we receive our discharge
from the army.

ABOUT TOWN.

This is fine weather for the frogs.
The mail arrived last night at
$50.
Heavy rains have fallen all along
the river from Carrizo down.
Wonder if the "oldest inhabitant"
ever knew Of a longer wet spell,
or wetter one, than the present.
The river was four and half feet
above low water mark here at two
O'clock this afternoon and was still
rising, but slowly.
The river is reported as falling to-
day at Rio Grande, but the drift
coming down indicates another rise.
At other points the river is rising.
The health of the boys at Fort
Brown is remarkably good, there
being only two men in the pospital
and they only slightly indisposed.
The Alice Stage driver reports
the roads between here and El Saul
quite heavy, but with four horses
attached to the stage he goes
through without hitch.
