Dr. Fly conducted an anti-tubercu-
losis meeting at Hereford last week
under the auspices OF the Deaf
Smith county medical society
The attendance upon the meeting
in Hereford was the largest yet
shown, and the interest was most
pronounced. DR.. Fly is authority for
the statement that the people Of this
part OF the state are becoming awak-
ened relative to the enormous spread
of the white plague, He incidentally
calls attention 10 the fact that he
personally has been a sufferer from
it for eighteen years, He is making
gains against it, and is now giving
his best endeavors to his fellowmen
in an attempt to stamp it out.
Dr.. Fly is we'll known over this
state as an advocate OF the pure food
laws, having written several articles
for the leading publications OF the
Southwest in behalf OF such legisla-
ton prior to the passage of the pres
ent federal laws. He Is now chair
man of the state committee on leg
islation and municipal regulation,
while Mrs. ]. L. Smith Of Amarillo
is secretary for the same division Of
the work. Mrs. Smith is also secre-
tary-treasurer for the Amarillo d.
vision of the campaign.
Dr.. Fly has already conducted
four meetings including those at
Dalhart, Amarillo, Hereford and
Clarendon, will continue his itinerary
which as definitely outlined, will in
include Childress, Quanah, Vernon
and Wichita Falls.
Dr.. Fly will visit other cities and
towns of the state on dates to be
published later. He will leave about
week hence for Dallas and Fort
Worth, whore he will engage actively
in the campaign against the scourge'
In the cities named he will remain
during the remainder Of November
and through December. In January
he will establish his headquarters in
Austin remaining there until the
close OF the coming session of the
state legislature.
At each of the meetings to be held
next week all teachers, lawyers, doc
tors, and preachers are urged to 4bt
present. A special invitation is ex
tended to the mothers. DR.. Fly says
that the importance Of this confer
ence can not be overestimated. The
inroads of the white plague have
been alarming. Conventions anc
demonstration have been made in al
the cities Of the country, Legislative
measures have been passed and
general warfare started against thu
disease.
Dr.. Fly says that he is making
special effort to secure TO Amarillo
and other cities Of the Panhandle tn
New York state exhibit shown at TIL
Dallas fair this year. If he is sue
cessful the exhibit will be here no
later than few weeks hence. No
only DR.. Fly, but many others o
this city who have seen the exhibit
pronounce it the most interesting

On the subject OF electritying rail-
roads the Pittsburg Gazette Times
says, IN an editorial among other re-
marks:
Persons who are Interested,
whether as stockholders or employees
In the great electrical manufactures
OF this country, have reason TO con-
graduate themselves, We are now
entering upon a new era Of devel-
opment with respect TO the uses OF
electricity. The S5,O0O,OO0 contract
let last Monday for Identification Of
the Pennsylvania railroads New
York terminals is but the beginning
of a tremendous change in the ma
chlnery OF transportation. The New
York Central will be forced before
long to pursue the same policy,
which will mean the outlay Of more
millions for work Of this kind. Chi
cago has ordered the Identification
OF all railroads entering that city,
partly as a means of saving life, but
largely in the interest OF health and
cleanliness. Once the feasibility OF
this system at the greater terminals
has been demonstrated and its SUI
periority proved beyond cavil, 1t Is
reasonable to expect that smaller
municipalities will demand the same
modern methods OF railroading With
in their borders.
I'm the meantime experiment with
and development of the potent'alities
of electricity never cease, and we are
sure to have projects for electrified
ton of long reaches OF railroad
through rural regions. Already there
is serious consideration OF this in the
vest and northwest. Indeed, pro
gressive as the use OF this power
has been, one is constantly being re-
minded in striking fashion that the
production OF electrical machinery
and equipment is an infant indus
try"

GOSPEL MISSION REVIVAL,
Work Of the Evangeists Estes |.
Bringing Good Results.

Another revival service was con-
Quoted by the Evangelists James and
Exile Estes last evening. Reading of
Gods Word was from Isaiah 3d. The
message was delivered by Mrs Estes
The text was "He that spared not His
own Son, but delivereth Him UP for
US all. shall He not, with Him, also
freely give us all things"'
Our Savior was not spared from
temptations. He was led into the will
derness and tempted by the devil 1t
is true that He was 40 days and nights
in the desert. Jesus was not spared
from suffering. The foxes have holes,
the birds have nests, but the Son of
Man hath no place to lay His head.
His was a life of sacrifice Many de-
sired to get rid of Him. He was given
no rest. This is so with a true Chris
Il an, for Satan is not vet dead. He
said to the disciples, could We not
watch one hour with me- They
thought they could do it. Peter told
jesus Il will not leave thee" but he
did. Satan is not sparing any of Gods
children. Did not our Lord say Let
this cup pass from me-" He tasted of
IoI SGlCll one. Travail Oh SOut WAS
upon Him till He poured out His blood
for all the world. He was not able to
carry His cross up to Calvary. Then
alas. He was cruciiied. All for you and
ne. Why was it? That He might know
how to sympathize and help us in all
our sorrow, temptations and toll. This
is tie reason He can understand our
need, and help us to conquer the world,
the flesh and the devil. Praise God.
Accept of His mercy and grace to-
night
M. Estes spoke briefly on the last
part of the freely giveth US all
things ENCOURAGED every one to en-
dure as u Christian as it did pay to
live for Christ, ana closed with
prayers for those who desired help.
There will be no meeting tonight.
| Thursday evening Will be the last OPP
portunity to hear them, unless in an
swer to prayer they change their plans.
| Believing His will to be done and you
may consider this special invitation
| for you to come Thursday evening.

NOTABLE MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
OF Special Value to Many Here
in Augusta.

The progress made in medicine dur
ing the last few years has been as a
whole general rather than specific.
One of the most notable discoveries
and one that undoubtedly appeals
more than anything else to many
people here in Augusta is the com
bination of stomach remedies in the
Mi-o-na treatment. This prescription
has worked wonders, and there is now
no excuse for anyone suffering with
indigestion or weak stomach.
1t acts specifically upon the muscles
of the stomach and bowels, strengthen
ing and stimulating them so that they
readily take care of the food that is
eaten 1t also increases the flow of
gastric juices, thus getting from the
food the nourishment that is necessary
for health and energy.
The symptoms of indigestion are
numerous, such as distress after eat
ing fatulence, heartburn. sick head
aches, dizziness and irritability These
are all dispelled by a few doses of
Mi-o-na when the trouble is recent,
but just as surely in long standing and
chronic cases if the treatment is
followed lOT TedSoIdpie iehSui VI
time.
So positive are the good effects
following the use of Mi-o-na that the
remedy is sold by Bowditch, Webster
& Co. under an absolute guarantee to
refund the money if it should fail to
cure. With an offer like this none
can afford to suffer long from indiges-
ton or stomach troubles.
Do not think because of the quick
benefits derived from the use of
Mi-o-na that it is merely a temporary
agent. 1t is remedy that cures by
making over the weak stomach INTO q
strong one.
Sold and guaranteed in Waterville
by Geo. w. Dorr and in Gardiner by
c. H, Beane.
