NEW ORLEANS, July 3o.-Liverpool ad-
market opened iG2 points lower, but ad-
vanced SOS subsequently, on claims of addi-
tional rains in Texas doing damage In the
Brazos Valley. as that river has overlooked
its banks and the water extends half mile
on each side. AS soon. however as this de-

log points higher on the day on all months
except July, which declined points. Rains
were general in Texas and Arkansas and show

predictions are for scattering showers through
out the cotton region tonight and Thursday.
Referring to the complaints Of excessive dam
age by rains in Texas IL must be remembered
that the same character of advices were cir
culated two years ago and while temporarily
the injury was considered irreparable it was
ultimately the means of making Texas raise
q bumper crop" Therefore operators think
the beneficial results in the end Ntsi more
than offset any local damage which may take
place. 1t was reported that Houston received

Some weeks ago | noticed an item in
The National Tribune to the effect that
the 23d Reg't was the only command in

ing that the 41st also had Travelled around

the 41st left Camp Meade for Manila

dered more or less,7 and the commonest
thing they do for it is to take some one
of the many sO-called blood purifiers,
which in many eases are merely strong
cathartics. Such things are not needed.
If the organs are in a clogged condition.
they need only little help and they will
right themselves. Cathartics irritate the
sensitive Innings Of the stomach and bow
els and often do more harm than good.
Purging is not what IS needed. The
thing 10 do is to put the food in cOndi-
ton TO be readily digested and assimilated.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this per-
fectly. They partly digest what is eaten
and give the stomach just the help it
needs. They stimulate the secretion and
eXcretion of the digestive fluids and re-
lieye the congested condition of the glands
and membranes. They put the whole di-
gestive system in condition to do its work.
When that is done you need take no more
tablets, unless yOu eat what does not
agree with you. Then take one or two
tablets-give them needed help, and you
will have no trouble.
It's a commOn-scnse medicine and a
common-sense treatment, and it will cure
every time. Not only cure the disease, but
cure the cause. Goes about ii in q per-
fectly sensible and scientific way.

The somber catafalque is spread.

The dead.

Light-rObed Aurora dearly loves
To tear the mourning emblems down,
That she may come with rOseate crown
And fling DER valley and hill and void
Her shining curtains of silyercd gold.
Now, looking out where late was gray,
see in the light of the full of day
The golden CLEAN of a promise new
in the broad eXpansc of the vaulted blue.

And | view with awe that gleam of gray.
