Danger of Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds and
grip is their resulting in pneumonia.
If reasonable care is used, however,
and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
taken, all danger will be avoided.
Among the tens of thousands who
have used this remedy for these
diseases we have yet to learn of a single
case having resulted in pneumonia,
which shows conclusively that it is a
certain preventive Of that dangerous
disease. 1t will cure cold or an at
tack of the grip in less time than any
other treatment. 1t is pleasant and
safe to take. For sale by Nick Dotfing

A disordered stomach NAV ca,,se f,

A disordered stomach may cause no
end of trouble. When the stomach
fails to perform its functions the
bowels become deranged, the liver and
kidneys congested, causing numerous
diseases, the most fatal of which are
painless and therefore the more to be
dreaded. The important thing is to
restore the stomach and liver to a
healthy condition, and for this pur-
pose no better preparation can be used
than Chamberlain's Stomach and
Liver Tablets. For sale by Nick Dof-

By softening shellac With heat it
may be drawn out and twisted into al
most white sticks and of fine silky
luster. Extreme beauty is given to
Chinese works of art by the use of
shellac. Some of them are very ancient
and of great value. They are chiefly
chowchow boxes, tea basins or other
small objects made of wood or metal
They are covered with coat of shell
lac, colored with vermilion, and while
the layer of shellac is soft and pliable
it is nodded and shaped into beautiful
patterns. Some of these works thus
ornamented are so rare and beautiful
that even in China they cost fabulous
sums.

the number were two white women,
Lula Palmer, convicted in Jones
county and given seven years on
the charge Of killing her husband,
and Alice Tiemann, convicted in
Coryell county and given three
years on the charge Of robbery.
Alice Tieman is apparently about
2S years Of age. She appears TO be
in the best Of health, and looks
upon her trip TO the penitentiary
As one would look upon a trip to
the seashore on a hot summers
day.
She states that she is the victim
Of circumstances and unravels
story that would furnish a good
foundation for a bad novel Of the

the head, she says, while lying in
bed asleep, and was unconscious
for thirty-six hours. After re-
