her by the hand, and half led, half
dragged her up the steep trail from
the brook to the ridge which bordered
the side OF the canon. The canon was
much wider here than further up and
there was much more room and much
more space for the water to spread.
Yet, they had to hurry for their lives

MORBID BLUSHING.
A Terrible Affection That May Be
Helped by Convex Glasses.

A Terrible Affliction That May Be
Helped by Convex Glasses.
The essential cause of morbid blush
ing is a morbid temperament, says DR..
II. Campbell. NJ. r. G. p. in the Prac-
titioner. \ normal person may blush,
but he is not greatly disturbed by it.
He may be disconnected for the time,
but, the storm over, he soon forgets
all about 1t. The morbid blusher, on
the other hand. suffers mental torture.
The blush throws him into a state Of
panic such as in the normal person
can only be excited by some desper-
ate experience. The anguish Is so great
that he lives in constant dread Of be-
ing exposed to the conditions which
excite it. This dread cOlors his entire
life. He wakes up with it; he falls
asleep with H. 1t haunts his dreams.
Morbid blushing is, in truth, ter
rible affiiction. In its severe forms, DR..
Campbell says, it always calls up
thoughts Of suicide and not infrequent-
~ actually prompts 1t.
The female sex is more apt TO blush
than the male sex, although more men
than women seek medical help for
morbid blushing. Those who suffer
from the complaint may gain some con-
fidence by using strong convex glasses.
The artificial myopia thus induced by
blurrfng the surroundings tends to di-
minish self consciousness"

The election is but thirty days away and #
Texas Democrats are really DESTROYS Of the cleo
ton of Governor Wilson they ought to manifest
their interest in substantial manner 1t is not
cxaggeration to say that but for Texas Governor
Wilson would not have become the nominee.
This being true II is especially the duty OF lexas
Democrats to aid the campaign managers IN bring
ing about his election.
The next thirty days must decide the fate OF
the ticket Frow now until November the com
mittee will need funds to meet the many demands
coming from all portions OF the country, and with
out funds success may be impered We must not
take too much for granted Overconfidence at this
time accompanied by indifference to the needs OF
the committee might prove disastrous.
The National Committee expects the sum OF
$50. 900 from Texas and 500 900 Democrats can
surely contribute that much without depnving
themselves of any comfort or necessity. The cam
paign has now reached the point where he who
gives quickly gives twice. Local committees ought
to work diligently and remit collections promptly.
Those who are able and willing to give larger sums
ought to send their checks in at
National Committeeman Sells whose post
office address is Clebume, or State Chairman Wal
ter Collins whose post-offcc address is Hillsboro,
will promptly forward contributions. Those who
prefer to contribute through Governor Colquitt can
do so. as the governor is deeply interested in the
success Of the National ticket Colonel Ball OF
Houston will also acknowledge and forward con
tributions sent to him So will the Post.
The point is to realize the duty Of the moment
and contribute at once The campaign movement
is not at high tide and it must not be permitted to
suffer for lack if funds-FIouston Post
