plan Of taxing themselves 20 cent? for
each keg Of beer manufactured and

DEAD RAILROAD MAN
 DENIED PASS IN TEAAS

Ft. Worth, Tex, Sept. 70 An other kink has been found Tn the anti i-pass legislation, With dearn 2 man ceases to be a railroad employe and fare must be Pald for the transportation ot h1s body. Application was made this morning to the Trinity and Brazos Valley for the transpor- tation for the body of former elnplove ot the Cotton Belt. h. vestiqation shows thatunder the interstate act the pass privilege is limited strictly to employees.
 Judging from the above Asso- ciated Press news, it'would seem that the law passed at the last session of Congress is badly Ill need of amendment in many res pects. Undoubtedly, when man dies. he ceases to be an employe, but it is hardly fair to deny h1s relatives the privilege of free transportation for the remains.
 This matter will probably be the cause of much interesting dis cussion among the railroad brotherhoods and 1t would be well for them to take immediate action calling on their grand oif1- cers and executive committees to take steps to have the law amended at the next session o1 the National Congress.

Sour
 Stomach

No appetite, loss of strength, nervous ness, headache, constipation, bad breath, general debility, sour risins5. and catarrh of the stomach are all due to indigestion. Kodol relieves indigestion. This new discov. cry represents the natural juices of diges- ton as they exist in a healthy stomach, combined with the greatest known tonic and reconstructive properties. Kodol for dyspepsia does not only relieve indigestion and dyspepsia, but this famous remedy helps all stomach troubles by cleansing purifying, sweetening and strengthening the mucous membranes lining the stomach. Mr. S. s. Ball. of Ravenswood, W. Va. says was troubled with sour stomach for twenty years Kodol cured me and we are now using it in milk for baby.' -
