Contract for Sprinkling.
The sprinkling of the streets
of this city has never been done
upon any systematic basis. One
man probably paid for a privil
ege that his equally able neigh
bor also enjoyed, and to put all
on the same footing, the water
company this year proposes to
make contracts for the season
from April 1(5 to November 1
iind to sprinkle only those blocks
where the property owners or
renters are willing to subscribe
for the service for that time.
And as stated, unless the people
are willing to get together, there
may be no street sprinkling,
whereas if all pay a proportion
ate rate to t'ae frontage of their
property and guarantee it for
the season by subscribing to
such a contract, general service
may be secured without the cost
fading heavily upon any indi
vidual.

Expects to Leave State.
Having spent thirty-one years
in the State of Arkansas, fight
ing against what I believed to be
slanders of a state that should be
foremost in the galaxy of states
and now when it comes to a
point that the most lawless „ nd
vie us elements in the stare a'-e
•in control of the «ntiie political
machinery through which they
e:ect to omce some of the most
corrupt scoundrels that ever dis i
graced office, not excepting car
pet-bag days, I must bow to the
inevitable and am not willing to
try to raise my children under
such conditions. I therefore offer
all my property, both personal
and real, for sale, that I may
move with my family to a state
at’ established reputation for good
government, and where a man
or woman will not be looked
upon with scorn and contempt
oecause of the state from which
they come. J. C. Yancey.
THE MORNING AETER.
There was one a politician
And he had a little bee
A buzzin’ and a buzzin’
Where an insect shouldn’t be.
An’ the bee kept on a buzzin’
Till the politician got
A notion he was born to tell
The people what is what.
And his mouth got broad ar.d
roomy,
And his tongue got long and
thin,
As he shouted and he spouted
On the reasons he should win.
And he spent his cash in hand
fuls—
But he didn’t care for that,
While the little bee was busy
In the high part of ims hat.
A 11. 1_ •_1 £ _ ’.Li.’ J

in the office he had won,
And everybody talking
Of the things that he had dope.
But, alas! the morning after,
When he crawled out of the
bed,
He listened and he listened,
But the little bee was dead!

Gratitude
‘‘For more than a year I
had been a sufferer, completely
broken down. I had not slept
but two or three hours any
night for wreeks. I had such
awful misery in my head, and
oh, I was so irritable. I could
not depend upon my judge
ment, and my memory was
failing. I realized that I was
losing my mind, and I thought
the grave, or worse, the asy
lum, would be my doom. My
doctor said my case was be
yond the reach of medicine. I
went to a druggist and told
him my condition. He recortw
mended Dr. Miles’ Nervine;
he was pretty sure it would
help me, so I bought a bottle.
That night I took a table
spoonful, and fell asleep in a
few minutes, the first rest I
had in weeks, and oh, I will
never forget that sweet sleep
while I live. I have continued
taking it, and sleep like a baby,
and gain rapidly.”
MRS. VIOLA BARKER,
Orange, Texas.
Dr. Miles’ Nervine is sold by your
druggist, who will guarantee that the
first bottle will benefit. If it fails, he
will refund your money.
