EXCHANGE COMMENT.


Tho Galveston News printed recent
ly time table giving tho connection
OF stage lines in Texas in 1859,
which leads a Lufkin, Texas, paper
to say:
Old settlers will recall The day
when travel in the state was slow
business, often dangerous and full
Of incidents that have been told to
interested listeners around many
firesides Many OF the places men-
toned have long ceased TO occupy
place on the map, living only H.
the memory Of the Oldest citizens.
In this county the name Of Jocos-
vile, now a farm about six miles
below Homer was once the county
seat. The prelude TO the table Is as
follows:
Travelling Facilities in Texas by
L. S, Mall Conveyance.
For the accommodation Of our
travelling community we have been at
some trouble to get up list OF coach
and hack services throughout the en-
tire state. The connections are be-
lieved TO be close, and as a genera,
thing the service is as good as can
be found elsewhere. From this list
it will be seen that nearly every por-
ton OF the state is accessible. The
usual price (average) is about lOc
per mile, and the travel both day
and night"
To reach Nacogdoches, the route
was:
From Galveston via steamer 10
Sabine City, thence by steamboat to
Steep Bluff, and thence via Wood
vile and Jonesville to Nacogdoches
The Houston g. Texas Central
railroad at that time terminated at
Cypress, still a small station in Har-
ris county, and the traveller who
wished to 90 TO Waco was informed
that he could go From Henderson
two-horse hacks via London Tyler,
Bayets Ferry, Athens, Corsicana and
Dresden to Waco, striking then the
Great Northern Mail"
The route to Memphis was rather
circutous:
From Gonzales via seguin to San
Antonio.
From San Antonio via New Braun
fels, San Marcos, Austin, George
town, Bolton, Waco, Milford, Cham
bers Greek, Waxahachie, Lancaster,
Dallas, Nick inney, Bonham and pa
ris to GAINESVILLE: thence through
Arkansas to Memphis, Tenn.
But those were good old days Just
the same.

ADDRESS TO PLAINS PEOPLE
Call is Made by Amarillo Resident for
United War on tuberculosis

ana send him 10 the RIGHT PLACE
and help him until he is we'll
The financial losses In earning ca
pacity Of men and women who are
stricken with this disease in carly
lile Is something enormous, II is
estimated by the state OF New York
that It lost S7O,OOO,O0O in the loss
Of wages In the year 1907 from the
results OF this scourge.
II is further estimated that one
seventh of the people that die an
nually in the civilized world die from
some form OF tuberculosis, and that
one-thrd OF the persons dying he
tween the ages of 20 and 40 die with
some form Of consumption,
The exciting causes In the produc-
ton OF tuberculosis is excuses in
eating and drinking, overwork and
nervous strain, over crowded sleep
ing and working rooms, smoke and
dust and other unhygenic conditions,
One Of The most important causa-
i've factors in the, development OF
the disease In this country Is over
work and nervous strain brought on
by our strenuous commercial activ-
ity in the effort to accumulate great
wealth, II was said by the wisest
man OF all ages that "the love OF
money is the root Of all evil" and
10 certainly is undermining the best
principles in human nature at the
present time.
According to all rules OF physiol-
ogy and hygiene we should eat and
drink and work TO live and not for
sensual and pecuniary qualifications.
In order to accomplish the desired
results in this great crusade against
tuberculosis It is absolutely essen
tfal to have the earnest co-opera-
ton Of the masses In order to Sc
cure this great educational cam
paign must be instituted, and as this
will require means, It will he neo-
essary to secure appropriations from
federal, state and municipal govern
ments, in addition to donations and
bcquests from philanthropic citizens
around us.
To the eminent conclusions Of this
important subject ask the most
careful and serious consideration OF
the entire public.
Sincerely,
Amarillo, Texas, Oct a.

DR., D, r. Fly OF Amarillo, who
has made a study OF tuberculosis, and
who hes Just returned from Washing
ton where he attended the Worlds
tuberculosis congress, submits the
following for publication;
70 the People OF the Panhandle;
The recent International Congress
on tuberculosis at Washington, d,
c., was a great success, It was com
posed OF an aggregation OF the great
,eet minds from all parts Of the
world, and the personnel was COM
posed of physicians, scientists and
philanthropists, both men and wo-
men, and IN fact many individuals
who are spending time and money
in fighting the great white plague, "
who have the best interests OF the
human race at heart and their de-
Operations and conclusions should
be heartily observed throughout the
civilized world
It WAS the consensus that this dis
ease could be absolutely eradIcated
in the course OF time by common
sense methods II the aid and CO.
oppra lion OF the entire public can bo
secured.
1t is not a disease that can be
handled like other diseases, 1t is
not self limited, but tends to pro-
gress slowly but surely to dissolu-
ton unless prompt measures are in
stitutod for the cure in the early
stages, at which time ii is easily Il
durable malady, In order to accom-
plish this 1t is absolutely necessary
that the cases be recognized in their
incipency, and that the masses be
educated up to the fact OF the i'm
portancc OF early diagnosis, Mem
Oers OF the medical profession are
in a better position than ever before
TO render this early aid since the
advent of the mscroscope, and after
the opsonic index has been further
perfected It will be a valuable ad-
junct to other methods.
concurnntivn 80 tho futura who
earnestly desires to recover from this
dreaded disease must make It his
business to depend on four cardinal
principals,--his physician, sunlight,
fresh air, nutritious food and rest
in the febrile cases, In other words,
it is our duty as people to find
the consumptlve at the RIGHT TIME

Bargains in Used Stcinway Pianos.

Healy, Chicago, have largo sales
room entirely filled with used Stein
way Uprights, These Steinways en-
brace a wide variety Of styles, All
OF them, of course, are genuine
Stenways, and all others are in fine

ference in the cost.

Thompson Music Co., The Healy Mu-
sic Co.. and the big Thearle Piano

unfortunate little principalities share
the dream Of a Servian kingdom, en-
bracing all the Southern Slavs, to
dominate Turkey and work out ma
tional destiny, In the meantime,
however, Austrian, British, French
and German diplomats are taking a
deep concern in the Balkan affairs,
and there is every probability that
none of the turbulent people in the
Balkan states will be able to carry
forward its plans and patriotic
schemes if the major powers agree
on the status quo--providing such a
decision be reached in peace.

OPPORTUNITY FOR pine HILL"

The little city of Pine Hill
was full up and ran over with
Joy Saturday when a forty-ton
locomotive with a train rolled
right into the public square and
woke the echoes OF the hills and
valleys by its signal whistles.
1t was a happy day in the his
tory OF the longtime inland viii
lage. 1t was pleasure and
source OF satisfaction to those
good people to know that they
were ut last connectedswlfh the
great commercial world by
bands OF steel.--Henderson
Times.
The people OF the village OF Pine
Hill and surrounding country are
fortunate In securing a railroad and
have Just cause for rejoicing. Now
since they have the road "cinched,"
the proper thing to do is to start
an agitation for war on the railroad
corporation; make life and condi-
lions as severe as possible for the
men who own and built the roa 1.
That is, at least, the policy to adopt
according to the program OF a por-
ton OF the political demagogic ele-
ment. Though the people OF Pine
Hill, no doubt, have learned the les
son that the way to make a railroad
grow where there was none before is
to nurture it; and Pine Hill, insig-
niiicsnt as it is on the map OF the
world, has an opportunity to set an
example in common sense for the
benefit OF communities which, too
ofsens forget and cut AZ LAe4r agn
