ing season in Wisconsin closed last
Wednesday at midnight. Just how
many Of the animals had been killed

know that sixteen hunters were shot
to death and seven others more

The Key that Unlocks the Door to
Long Living.

The men of eighty-five and ninety
years OF age are not the rotund we'll
fed, but thin, spare men who live on
a slender diet. Be as careful as he
will, however, u man past middle
age will occasionally eat too much
or Of some article Of food not suited
to his constitution, and will need a
dose Of Chamberlaiu's Stomach and
Liver Tablets to cleanse and invig-
orate his stomach and regulate his
liver and bowels. When this is done
there is no reason why the average
man should not live to old age. For

THE public will be glad to know
that our postal service would be en-.
tirely self-sustnining now if it were
not for the expense of the rural free
delivery. The rustic population is
not likely to give up this great con
venience, and the result is that one
cent postage, which we have been
for many years approaching, must
be postponed for three or four years
longer It's advent could be hasten

Prominent Baptists On Way to Convention at Nashville Mix
 It Up Near Texarkana.

Texarkana, May 12. = There was a sensational shooting affray on the eastbound Texas and Pa cific train coming into Texar- kama this morning between Revs. J. B. Cranfill and s. L. Hayden. Cranfill fired two shots from a magazine pistol at Hayden while the latter was struggling for pos session of the weapon. Neither shot took effect. The encounter occurred in the lavatory of the sleeper, on which both men were en route to the Southern Baptist convention at Nashville, Tenn.
 Rev. MT. Cranfll was arrested on his arrival here. He waived examination and was released on $1, ,000 bond.
 Cranfll declined to make a statement. Hayden talked free ly, giving the following account, in substance:
 'I did not know MT. Cranfill was in the lavatory of the sleep CT until l entered to make my toilet. Cranfill began to curse and abuse me in the most violent language and drew a pistol from his grip and pointed the same at me. I seized the weapon by the barrel, and in the struggle two shots were fired before 1 got pos session of the pistol. Other passengers interfered, and their prompt action saved my life. ''
 This is the second personal en- counter between them. The former occurred in a Dallas court room. Hayden was accompanied by his wife and daughter and Cranfill by a party of friends.

 St., New York City, Says:

"I have used Paracamph in a severe case of Rheumatism, and will say that I got immediate, relief. I have tried almost every preparation that is now before the public, and find that Paracamphis is with out question the best remedy for Rheu- matism. wish you success and heartily recommed Paracamph "
 MT Hawkins is only one out of many thousands that have been cured by the wonderful penetrating remedy Paracamph This new remedy is scientific prepara- ton which when applied, opens the pores of the skin, allowing the soothing, cool ing oils to penetrate to seatof the a1lnent, removing the soreness and congestion, drawing out the fever and inflammation by inducing sweating. It sweats out the pain and aches, and this is Natures plan.
 Don't ruin your stomach with strong internal medicines for Rheumatism, Neu- ralgia, Sore Joints, etc. We guarantee Paracamph to relieve and cure youif used as directed. If it fails your druggist will refund your money. If your druggist don't handle Paracamph ask him to get for you.
 If he won't do this send direct to us. But don't take any substitute because there isnothing just as good. Paracamph is sold only in as cent, 50 cent, and $I .oo bottles.
 The 50 cent size contains three times as much as the 25 cent size; the $1 .oo bottles eight times as much as the 25 cent size.
