Easy Method of Killing Mos,
quitOes and Flies.

Why be worried with flies and
mosquitoes in your rooms when
they can be easily driven out and
killed. The BoonvilIe Banner gives
the following simple recipe:
1t is claimed that little laven-
der oil sprinkled about the room
through a common atomizer will
Danish flies. A little of this oil rub
bed on the hands and face will keep
flies at a distance, where one is at
work al. a desk or other sedentary
business. A pastile for killing not
only mosquitoes, but flies and other
insects that may be lurking about
the room, is made by mixing one
part benzine, one part balsam of
tolu, five parts of charcoal, one and
a half parts of common insect pow
der and half a part of soltpeter.
Add sufficient water to this mixture
to knead into a stiff paste. then roll
the mixture into suitable pastiles
and dry them. One of these pas
tiles will burn for some time in a
room, giving a pleasant odor, and
the fumes will kill all insects with
out injury to furniture or drapery.
They can be made at home, or the
druggist will prepare them.

Texas is in fact Republican
state: the question is how to
get the vote fairly polled and le-

may seem strange to You but it
is a prediction that may come

November election and a reason

will be made in every organized

Druggist Takes
His Own Medicine

The mar who sells remedies for most
Of the human ills, and hears day after day
the opinions of people who have used
these remedies, naturally ZONES to know
the superior from the inferior, and
when the time comes that he has to de-
eide on which remedy he will take, he
of course selects the one he has heard
the most praise of. His own opinion,
coupled with that of his customers,
ought to go far in convincing the layman that
the remedy the druggist selects is the bestin
the field.
J.. M. Hawkins, a druggist of Mound City,
Kans,, has sold medicines for a great many
years, and when finally he himself began to
suffer from stomach trouble he hadno hesitancy
In deciding which remedy on his shelf he would
take. It was DR.. CaldwelPs Syrup Pepsin.
Now, after having given It a good test. Mr..
Hawkins writes US that It justified his high
opinion and he Is cured, i
1t was the same with Druggist Kennedy, Of
Lexington. III. He was not very robust, often
had constipation and such troubles, so. going
on what his customers who had used It told him,
he took DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin md has
been a well man ever since.
There Is no better remedy on the shelf of any
druggist or In all materia medica than DR.. Cald-
wells Syrup Pepsin for obstinate constipation,
dyspepsia, Indigestion. iatulency, biiousness,
diarrhea, jaundice and other liver troubles,

effective, pleasant and sure. The proprietors
guarantee It absolutely both as to purity and
results to be expected. Usually one or two
doses will bring about a complete change for
the better. and az Il Is only 50 cents or 81 a bot.

Bedford apparent. | lv had little interest tn his child until after its mother committed suicide m a resort in Prescott in the latter part of 1907.
 Bedford's former wife divorced him in Arizona in 1906. and from that time little Lucille has lived with her aunt, Mrs. Lamhourn. and her grandmother, Mrs. Mitchell. until the latter's death in December. 1907. By Mrs. Mitehell's will of October, 1907, her entire estate , was left Co Mrs. Lambourn, while little Lucille was cut oI with S5.
 Bedford has commenced a contest to 7 break the will. alleging that Mrs. Nit
 cnell was insane at the time of it's ex' ecution. and that but for undue in ' Hueuces she would not have destroyed
 former wills. by which little Lucille l. was bcaucathcd one-half of her grand . mothers estate. in support of his ef. !, fort to break the will. Bedford has ap' piled Co the court to be appointed his ;. 1auphter's guardian, while Mrs. Lam.
