It isn't so difficult to strengthen a weak Stomach if one goes at it cor rectly. And this is true of the Heart and Kidneys. The old-fashioned way of dosing the Stomach or stimulating the Heart or Kidneys is surely wrong Dr Shoop first pointed out the error. "Go to the weak or ailing nerves of these organs" said he. Each inside organ has its controlling or inside nerve" When these nerves fail then those organs must surely falter. This vital truth is leading druggists every whsre to dispense and recommend pr.

MINGLED BY TRAIN
]. H. Morgan Was in Texarkana to See Brother Injured at De Queen
 When Death Came.

Texarkaus, Tex, Nov. lS.-J. H. Morgan of Bonami, La., was run over and instantly killed by a string of box cars in the local yards of the Texas X Pacific rail- way last night. His head was severed from the body and crush ed beyond recognition; both arms were mangled aud his backbone broken. Two cars and switch engine passed over Morgan s body, which was found lyIug across the track after the engine was stopped. Identification was established by means of letter from his sister at Eldorado, Ark. Two brothers from Eldorado ar- rived three hours later.
 Morgan, who had been here to see F. Morgan, brother, who lost eg in the recent accident at De Queen, and who is in a serious condition iu q local hospital, was repairing to return to BouamI to- night and was walking around in the railroad yards waiting for the Kansas City Southern train, when he evidently started to cross the track in front Of the string of box cars and was killed.
 The body will be shipped to Eldorado for inierment.

COST OF CATTLE TICKS
Bureau of Animal Industry Fur nishes Data and Information as
 to Gettirg Rid of the Pest.

The Bureau ol Animal Indus try of the United States Depart. ment of Agriculture proposes tc furnish information as to the best means of e,imin nstiug the cittle tick pest. Following is the first of serles of articles sup piled.
 A cattle tick that has reached theeugorged stage weighs about 5 grains, and about l, 800 such ticks weigh a pound. As cattle in he tick region often carry many thousands of these blood-sucking parasites, and as each tick during the period of its attachment to an animal dra WIS considerably more than its own weight in blood, it can be seen that these ticks con- stitute an enormous drain on the cattle which they infest. This accounts for the fact that under such conditions it is impossible to fatten cattle, even on rich pasture and with an abundance of good feed. A large part of the nour- ishment that should go toward producing beef and milk is con- sumed by the ticks. la addition to the loss of blood and nourish- ment, there IS the never-ceasing irritation caused by the ticks, so that the existence of the infested cattle is beset with continuous suffering, and this, of course, all so tends to keep .hem in poor condition.
 The shrinkage in the milk pro duction of COW harboring many tlCkS will average one quart day, and the loss occasioned thereby at 3 cents a quart for the S75,0o0 ticky dairy cattle out of more than 4,00Q,000 below the quarantine line would amount to S26,2 ,250 a day. Counting 300 milking days for each cow to the year would make the loss from this cause $7, ,000 per annum.
 Full information at to how t0 get rid of the ticks, including di- rections for the preparation of dips and sprays, the arrangement of pastures, etc., may be obtained free upon application to the Blu reau of Animal Industry, Depart ment of Agriculture, Washing ton. D. c.

LET A BAD ONE MAKE HIS GETAWAY
J. C. Morgan, Recently Convicted of Slugging and Robbing an Old Man In This City, Walks by Prison
 Guard at Little Rock.

Dressed in civilian clothes, J C. Morgan, state convict. aftel only five days imprisonment, boldly walked out of the state capitol aud through the convict guard line about o'clock yester. day morning. making good one oi the most daring escapes ever at tempted at the state penitentiary. At late hour last night, nothing had been heard from Morgan, all though every effort is being made to recapture him.
 Morgan was among the 40 state couvicts employed on the capitol building and in some man. ner secured suit of civilia n clothes. These he hid some where about the place and yesterday morning, shortly after going to work, effected change of cloth- ing.
 He walked past one of the guards, who are stationed around the building during the tme the state convicts are al work within and was hailed by the guard, whose duty it is to stop every one. lie paid no attention to the chal- lenge, however, and the guard paid no further attention to the matter, believing Morgan to be an ordinary citizen.
 October 8 Frank Weber, an old gray haired man, was fearfully beaten and robbed h the alley al the rear ot The Star office. Nigh, Officer Repetto came on the scene and caught hard looking indi- vidual, who gave his name as J. c. Morgan. November 8 he was given a trial, convicted aud given three years in the penitentiary. In many ways Morgan proved to b. slick one and is believed to be an unusually bad character.
 The night of the robbery the officer saw two other men running away from the scene of the rob- bery. They have probably stayed with their pal iu distress and sneaked him the suit ot citizens clothes which were used in fool ing the peniteutiary guards.
