 QUITE EXPENSIVE
Gives Out Some Interesting Fact, Regarding Her Troubles, and How She Avoided Fur
 ther Expense.

Pineview, Na.-Mrs. Cora Brooks. of this town, writes as follows: T suffered for about three years with womanly trouble, and was getting worse and worse all the time
 l had two good doctors and l was sent to two good hospitals to be oper ated on. but no operating was done.
 All this cost me lots of money, and was no better off than before started.
 Finally I began to take Cardui, the woman's tonic. After taking six bot ties, the pains are all gone, and l feel like a new woman entirely. l am now able to do all the housework for my self, husband and five children, with ease. Before taking Cardui, l was in bed seven weeks at time, not able to do anything at all.
 l cannot praise Cardui enough for what 1t has done fer me"
 There are thousands of women who have been benefited by taking Cardui the woman's tonic, and there are thou sands who are suffering from some form of womanly trouble-suffering for the lack of Cardui
 Are you of this number? If so, don't delay, but begin taking Cardui today. What it has done for so many others, it should surely do for you At your drug store.

LIGHT BREAKS IN Thoughtful Farmer Learns About
 Coffee.

Many people exist in a more or less hay condition and it often takes years before they realize that tea and cof fee are often the cause of the cloudi ness. and that there is simple way to let the light break in.

 For about forty years. I have had indigestion and stomach trouble in various forms. During the last 25 years l would not more than get over would be upon me.
 Tho best doctors I could get and all the medicines l could buy, only gave me temporary relief.
 Change of climate was tried with out results. I could not sleep nights had rheumatism and my eeart would palpitate at times so that it seemed 1t would jump out of my body
 'i came to the conclusion that there was no relief for me and that l was about wound up, when l saw Postum advertisement. I had always been a coffee drinker, and got an idea from the ad that maybe coffee was the cause of my trouble.
 "l began to use Postum instead oi coffee and in less than three weeks ] felt like new man. The rheumatism left me. and I have never had spell or bilious collie since.
 My appetite is good my digestion never was better and I can do more work than before for 40 years
 "l haven't tasted coffee since I be gan with Postum. My wife makes II according to directions and relish Il as well as ever did coffee. and l wal certainly slave to coffee"

Mayor Vetoes Franchise.

Little Rock.-Mayor Taylor has again vetoed the ordinance passed by the city council granting the Pine Bluff & Eastern Traction Co. a fran chise to enter Little Rock and cross the free bridge connecting this city and Argenta. The mayor assigned the same reasons he gave for vetoing the ordinance at it's first passage, which failed to provide for a universal 5-cent fare across the free bridge into both cities. and the further reason the provision of the franchise providing penalties in case the interurban is not built was entirely too lenient.

GOVERNOR coLouITT's DREAM.

In his recent message to the Legis-
lature on educational matters, Gov
ernor Colquitt INDUCED the following
dream on what he terms an ideal
university:
TT had the planning and making
OF university would have campus
of ample acreage, and on that campus
| would erect buildings more magnifi-
cent and commodious than those we
now have in this State, and / would
call these buildings the Agricultural
and Mechanical College, And on the
same campus / would build magnifi-
cent structures more commodious and
complete than all the State normal
schools we now have, and call them
the Normal College, Then there
should be erected an art and industry
building many times more commodious
than the college we now have, and
that l would call the College of Arts
and Industry which the arts and in
dustries for men and women would be
taught. Then would build substan-
tial structure and call it the Law Col
lege,' and another magnificent build
ing far more complete and capacious
than any we have, and call it the Med
ical College In the center of the
campus | would build a magnificent
main building of Texas granite large
enough to afford accommodation not
only for the present but for the future
generations, and / would call the
whole the University of Texas. The
students attending any of these col
leges could then get the advantage of
course in any or all of them; the
advantages of all of them would be
omen to students attending any one OF
them. Some may say this is dream:
If so, it is one that should have been
now a realization and is yet possible.
The combined strength and usefulness
of such a university would be felt all
over the world. Here, in such uni
versity, / would teach letters, arts,
science, agriculture, mechanics, en-
cheering, architecture and everything
else needful to develop the mind and
equip it to grapple with the problems

BRAVE WORDS sRAvELY SPOKEN.

The reply of Attorney General Car
mody of New York to Mrs. Longstreet
relative to her offer to raise the money
embezzled by Gen. Daniel e. Sickles,
is one of the bravest utterances, and
strongest pleas for the majesty of the
law, given voice in this country in
many years. 1t is as follows:
your sympathetic and patriotic ex-
pressions do justice to your heart, but
they do violence to the facts in this
case. General Sickles is being prose
cuted by the State of New York for
converting to his own use the sum of
$23,476. This money came into his
hands as chairman of the State Mon
ument Commission, to be used, among
other purposes, for the erection of
monuments to mark the resting places
on the field of Gettysburg of the brave
soldiers who fell in defense of their
country and to provide for a celebra-
ton upon the field of Gettysburg in
which those living might participate
at the States expense in fitting man
ner. General Sickles appropriated this
amount to his own use. This he has
not attempted to justify or to defend,
admitting that he took the States
money for private use without author
ity of law, an act which under our
laws and under the laws of all civil
lied governments means stealing He
was given his own time to repay this
amount, and that time was extended,
at his suggestion without any desire
to embarrass him and with the full
appreciation of the claim which he has
upon this Nation for the great services
he rendered in the rebellion. These
services can not be overestimated, but
even the fame of the soldier must not
be used as cloak or protection for
the commission of crime, and it is
nothing less than misdirected SYM
pathy to undertake so to confuse the
question involved as to make an ordi-
nary prosecution for crime seem like
persecution and to elevate as martyr
a person who confesses his derelic-
ton. New York State appreciates her
heroes, and feels Inundated at the
spectacle which this case presents.
New York State also respects her laws
and seeks to enforce them in spirit
of equality to all. trust this brief
statement of the facts will show you

How Bryan Won His Wife.

After William Jennings Bryan had
codrted the beautiful Mary Baird for
what he considered a sufficient length
of time, says the Kansas City Star, the
Commoner, then a struggling young
lawyer, concluded to put the vital ques-
ton to the father of the future Mrs.
Bryan. William, after downing the
lump in his throat, sought refuge in
the Scriptures.
"Mr. Baird, have been reading
Proverbs a good deal lately" said Mr..
Bryan, "and | find that Solomon says,
Whose findeth wife, findeth a good
thing and obtaineth favor of the Lord"
Father Baird, being somewhat of
Bible scholar himself, replied: Yes, L.
believe Solomon did say that, but Paul
suggests that while he that marrieth
doeth well. he that marrieth not doeth
better"
Bryan. who never has been at a loss
for an answer in his spectacular life,
quickly replied: Solomon would be
the best authority upon this point, be-
cause Paul was never married, while
Solomon had a number of wives"
Whereupon Father Baird capitu-
lated
