 rive.

Two young Americans, anxious to see the world, We're halted in the r long trip from Dallas, Texas, 10 Teico, Tenn, at the Union; station yesterday by Sheriff Brewster, who, few hours before Cotton Belt pas senger train No. ? arrived from tn : south, received message requesting him to look out for the youngsters and take them from the train
 The lads are Jeff Payne, 12 years old, and John Dixon, 10. They gave the officer no trouble nor Id they seem much put out and accompanied him to his office in the court house where they remained until choir rel- atives were communicated with.
 Young Payne, whose father is a wood cutter at Irving, Texas, sa d he had been given permission by cis sister to go see his brother in Telico. Little Dixon, tow headed youth, not at all abashedI by the big sheriffs presence, wanted to go too. and the lads say they were given $25 by a French youth named Charles Ban zette. Where the latter obta ned the money they did not know. Young Dixon's father is a charcoal burner.
 Both the lads expressed uaelr will ingness to return home, the smallest one venturing the opinion that the railroad company would permit them to return on their tickets as they had not been used the full amount. They will be sent home by the sher if as soon as transportation arrives.

I have in my posse ssion prescrip- ton for nervous debility, lack of v.g- :. or, weakened manhood, failing mem- cry and lame back, brought on by eXcesses. unnatural drains, or the follias of youth, that has cured so many worn and nervous men right ln their own hcmes-w,thout an addi- tionai help or med cine-that 1 think every man who wishes to regain his manly power and virility quickly and quietly should have a copy. So l have determined to send copy of the prescription free Of charge in pla n, ordinary sealed envelope to any man who will write me for it.
 This prescription comes from a' physician who has made special study of men and l an convinced that it is the surest acting combination for the cure of deficient manhood and vigor failure ever put together.

be purchaser s. evt ry seas on, because
of the great distance of shipment;
basing his refusal upon the miserable
condition in which thousands OF the
California chicks in his own locality
arrive. But, properly packed and
handled with ordinarily decent care
during the journey, they may be ship
ped 80 or even 49 hours away. They
are, however, exposed to many accl-
dents. I have shipped chicks to
Montana and to the Southern part of
Oregon and had them arrive in the
pink of condition and thrive from
the beginning until maturity while
other chicks shipped from the same
hatch at the same time were fatally
chilled during the much shorter jour
ney to Grays Harbor and, for the
most part. died off rapidly after ar
rival. But the breeders handling the
better class of business at a respect
able price have now, for the most
part, arranged to protect their Gus
toners from such losses as these, and,
or receipt of a properly Endorsed state
ment of the damage, they Immediate
ly make good the customers loss and
go after the express company to make
good in it's turn.
Yet nine-tenths of us people en-
gagged in the day old chick business
would welcome a return to the old
custom of selling the eggs to the Gus
toner and letting him do his own
Matching. But the greater convent
ence of buying chicks, the saving in
labor and the saving of the cost of in
cubators and houses for some has
rung the knell of the old custom.
1t is the. earnest hope of many of us

Matching will take the place Of the
