A Gas Heater Kills the Chill.
YEARS OF SUFFERING
THEN ROBUST HEALTH.
Great Remedy Cured Skin Disease Of
Long Standing.

Mr.. J. Weber. of 1905 Vine street,

story Of terrible skin suffering which
ended in robust health when he found
remedy which cured him like magic.

The business people of Palestine
have proven themselves of the right
kind of metal. During the money
scare, when the country was seeming.
ly turned upside down. they have
steadfastly refused to become excited
over the situation, but with deliberate
business judgment have rallied to the
support Of the local banks in prevent
ing any local disturbances. to the end
that business matters will proceed as
heretofore. Such action on the part
of the business people will help won
derfully in these trying times, and
he business men are TO be com

The old dispute that chicken is as
good as a turkey any day will not take
the center of the stage again until
after Thanksgiving. and considering
the scarcity of the turkey in this ter
ritory chicken is going to be a great
deal better than no turkey on many
Thanksgiving dinner tables. At the
same time it must be admitted in all
candor that turkey is lariping good
truck, as an esteemed contemporary
has stated.

The suggestion made in yesterdays
Herald by laboring man relative to
providing temporary relief to the
small army of men suddenly thrown
out of employment in this city. ex-
presses a noble sentiment that does
credit to the author Of it. and is a
suggestion that should be acted upon.
None Of the men suddenly cut out Of
their employment are paupers and
few, If any of them, would accept any
kind OF charity, but a loan made as
such would possibly in some cases
relieve a very embarrassing situation.
and help a good man to get in touch
with other employment. 1t is a Sc
rious thing to contemplate so many
men being thrown out OF employment
without a moments notice in a city
the size Of Palestine. where opportu.
mites for securing employment are
necessarily limited, and It is a situa-
ton that should be looked after bv
The more fortunate ones who are still
employed. The working people will
have TO take care Of the situation. for
they are the ones who feel the kind
red responsibility in such cases. Let
MS do what we can and all we can to
relieve the situation.

There is a fine-spun theory that a
democratic officer in the state Of
Texas should not be criticised by any
democrat within the state during his
tenure in office This theory was
borne down on very hard a few
months ago when certain men were
under the investigation lamp. But
now the same crowd who we're CRYING
traitor are lambas'ing Attorney Gen.
eral Davidson with might and main.
Il seems to make all the difference in
the world as to what official is TO be
criticised. The Herald is a democrat.
Simon pure. but it believes it is the
right and duty of a good democrat TO
point out faults and discuss measures
just the same.

GOOD TIMES DEPEND ON PUBLIC
CONFIDENCE.

The world never had a better il
lustration than the present crisis that
good times" depend upon public con-
fidence. AS long as confidence is un-
shaken the business world rocks
along; towns and counties build and
grow; business people expand and eX-
tend their trade; great things are I'M
dertallen and carried to a successful
end. But the moment people get
scared, begin to doubt their own abil-
ity to do the things they have map
ped out to do; the moment they
pause TO question their own power to
accomplish things, fear and distrust
enter, public confidence is shaken,
and then the mischief is TO pay. Peo-
pie become scared; timid money
seeks seclusion, the business world
pauses, and hard times are here. In
such times self-preservation, the first
law of nature, asserts itself: men be-
gin to retrench; help is discharged.
and expenses and sal54 are curtail-
ed generally. And then it is the
country has in reality what was most
feared. With that confidence restored
money will come from its places Of
hiding, business will be resumed, the
mills and marts will once more be
come active, and all will be we'll
until the next general scare comes
around again.

Wonder what will happen down at
San Antonio Saturday evening when
the people of that fair city undertake
to banquet Governor Campbell? The
Herald sincerely hopes no one will
start anything new, because right now
our people are boiling their ribbon
cane syrup. and it would be horrible
if it should scorch, and the only way
to prevent this is to keep an eye on
the kettle.

A Good Idea.

This little, short-lived money scare,
originating in Wall street greed, and
New York politics, makes me tired.
Its chief intent is a blow at my friend
Roosevelt. By the way, if anybody is
afraid to put money in the banks,
bring it to Patrick's Drug Store and
invest it in MISERY MOVER or
CHILD'S FRIEND.
Misery Mover is good as gold, and
The Child's Friend is better than Cas-
toria.

DR.. John Farrar of Audenrled was
lowered by a rope into the slope, a
distance of 100 feet. He was over

revived. A rescue party followed and
was also overtaken after one body
had been recovered. The rescuers
have not been able to make much
progress on account of the gas. Later
John Latchinda was gotten out alive
and this fact gives slight hope that
some of the others may still be alive.

QUALIFICATIONS OF AN EDITOR.

Every newspaper man with an
experience reaching over number
of years can testify to the truth of
this from the Willmar Journal:
How quickly will a man change
his tune in regard to the newspaper
man! When the sun is shining
bright, and there are no clouds in
sight, he sometimes heaps indignities
where none are deserved, with i'm.
punity. But when the sky becomes
suddenly overcast, and something
happens that he desires suppressed.
then how he will try and explain and
beg. And generally the newspaper
man will swallow his feelings aud
show how magnanimous he really is.
The feelings of an enemy have been
spared, and the public denied a
choice morsel. Aud the newspaper
man knows that the man he has
spared will stab him again at the
first opportunity. Such is life. D

entirely stopped the brick dust sedi-
