SAM c. MAJOR CONSENTS
TO RUN FOR CONGRESS
viii Make Race or Congress to
Succeed c. W. HamIin.

Sam C. Major, Fayette's noted
attorney, has consented to make
the race for congressman to sue
coed Courtney w. Hamlin, the
present Incumbent. Mr.. Major
will have the undivided support
of Howard County in the coming
race and reports from other
counties in the district seem to
point to Majors assured nominal
ton.
Mr.. Major has truly entered
the race at the solicitation of his
countless friends. He has letters
from every part of the district
asking that he run and much
pressure was brought to bear on
him before he would announce
his intentions of making the
race. A number of reporters
from several papers have re-
ceived a nonaSsuring answer
from Mr.. Major whenever they
preached the subject Of his in
tentions of making the race. But
he has decided to run and every
voter in this district should be
glad.
Now Mr.. Major intends to
make no fight on Mr.. Hamlin.
They are good friends. But Mr..
Major thinks like the rest of us
that twelve years is long enough
for any man to hold Office and
that a young democrat should be
given a chance. Mr.. Major is
thoroughly qualified to fill the
place having been in the state
senate for a term and being
thoroughly acquainted with the
national questions. He will make
a good congressman when NOM
mated and elected.
Senator Major will go into the
race with the support of most of
the Democrats of Howard and of
the county press. He has been
Endorsed by the Howard County
Democratic Central Committee.

PRODUCTS FROM OLD BONES
Many Valuable Things Are Obtained
Through the Ingenuity Of the
Modern Chemist.

Bones are not wasted. The chief
product is glue, and among other
materials which are obtained from
them are soap, %glycerin and fertiliz-
ers. After being carefully separated
by workmen they are soaked in a
weak solution of sulphuric acid,
From the soaking tanks the bones
emerge white and perfectly clean.
They are then placed in steam
tanks, where, after being subjected
to a pressure of steam for several
hours, a trap-door is opened at the
bottom Of the digester, as it is called,
and the liquid glue that has been ex-
tracted is drawn off. The liquid glue
is partly evaporated and a portion is
allowed to harden for commercial
use as glue, and a part is refined and
sold for gelatin for table use.
Floating on tine top of the glue in
the digester is a quantity of fat that
has been also extracted from the
bones by steam. This is drawn off
into cooling tanks, where, in its
crude state, it is made into securing
soaps. By refining and adding vege-
table oils and perfumes, toilet soaps
are made.

Safe Medicine for Children.

Safe Medicine for Children.
SIS it Safe?" is the first question
to be considered when buying
cough medicine for children.
Chamberlain's cough remedy has
long been a favorite with moth
ers of young children as it con-
tains no opium or other narcotic,
and may be given to a child as
confidently as to an adult. It is
pleasant to take, too, which is of
great Importance when a medi-
cine must be given to young
children. This remedy is most
effectual in relieving coughs,
colds and Group. Obtainable
everywhere.

The bowels are the natural

When they become INSTRUCTED
by constipation a part of the
