"I tried to break away from coffee, but every time I stopped, I suffered from severe sick headaches and for re lief went back to coffee again, only In the end to suffer from extreme ner vousness and severe bilious attacks. "I became so irritable that I made life miserable for my family and my self Finally I went to New York to consult 1 socialist.

After thoroughly questioning and examining me, he said I must give up drinking coffee as it had greatly undermined my health and he further said that coffee killed more people than rum. I laughed at him, but he said it was the truth and that in hi practice he had stn many evil effects from coffee drinking. "He said It was of no use to prescribe for me. unless I gave up coffee.and recommended that I use Postum Food Coffee, which he highly recommended. He charge 1 me $12 for his advice, which I thought rather high priced at the time, but today I think It very cheap.

"I had a pot of Postum made for my supper that night: that was in the spring of 1S9S and I have drank It ever since with the best of results to mj health.

There are two applicants for this position, Searcy Baker, the present incumbent, and L. A. Whatley of Cass county, who was the superintendent under Culberson and Hogg.

This contest is said to be very aggressive and prominent politicians are backing the candidates. It was learned last night that Attorney General Bell and Judge W. P. McLean of Fort Worth are being consulted frequently by Governor-elect Lanham relative to appointments, applications and the like. Yesterday was another strenuous day for Governor-elect Lanham and from early morn until late in the evening, there was a continual stream of politicians and office seekers conferring with him.

Governor Sayers has turned over his office to him. and he has established headquarters there. While a large number of the politi- cians and applicants who were here Tuesday have had their say and gone home, there does not seem to be any diminishing in the crowd. Many who srrlved yesterday have not as yet had an opportunity of "getting at" the new chief executive. It was reported yesterday afternoon that Governor-elect Lanham would remain here until next Saturday and he has about decided to end the agony by giving out his list of appointments be' ford.

He is giving everyone a hearing and he Is carefully considering the merits of each applicant, and it is his purpose to give all a hearing, but not- withstanding this fact, a well known politician stated last night that he had it on good authority that the appoint ments. at least those of the more Im- porta nt offices, would be dished out CAPITAL A MILLION BIG LOAN AND TRUST COMPANY OF DALLAS AND HOUSTON CHARTERED YESTERDAY. Articles of incorporation of the Southwestern Loan and Trust company, of Dallas and Houston, were filed yesterday in the secretary of fctate's department, capital stock $1,000,000.

o. i With the granting: of the application the Chicago, Rock I.land and Mexico railway for authority to issue bonds ninety-two miles of road by the railroad commission, there will be a general Improvement in that section of the country. That part of the road runs across the extreme northwest por- tion of the state and through the coun ties of Hartley. Dallam and Sherman, The road Is investing large sums of money in the Improvement of its property. The company is building a round house, machine shops, at Dalhart and will make that place division headquarters for the entire line from El Paso to the Texas and Indian Territory line.

The town of Dalhart is located exactly on the line between Hartley and Dalham counties and the making of that point division headquarters means much to that section. A novel proposition is being considered by the people of Dalhart and that is to locate the county seat of both counties in that town and erect a court house exactly! on the line so that- one half the building will be in Dallam and one half in Hartley counties. It Is believed that if this scheme is carried out, it will be the only instance of the kind in any state of the Union. NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA. A CURE FOR ALL.

Not a Patent Cure-All. Nor a Modern Miracle, But Simply a Rational Cure for Dyspepsia. In these days of humbuggery and de-rentlnn. the manufacturers of natent medicines, as a rule, seem to think their medicines will not sell unless they claim that it will cure every disease under the sun. And they never think of leaving out dyspepsia and stomach troubles.

They are sure to claim that their nostrum Is absolutely certain to cure every dyspeptic and he need look no further. In the face of these absurd claims It is refreshing to note that the proprietors of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have carefully refrained from making any 'undue claims or false representations regarding the merits of this most excellent remedy for dyspepsia and stomach troubles. They make but one claim for it, and that is, that for indigestion and various stomach troubles Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is a radical cure. They go no farther than this and any man or woman suffering from indiges- tion, chronic or nervous dyspepsia, who will give the remedy a trial will find that nothing is claimed for it, that the facts will not fully sustain. It is a modern discovery, composed of harmless vegetable ingredients ac-; rentable tit the weakest or most deli- cate stomach.

Its great success In curing stomach troubles is due to the fact that the medical properties are such that It will digest whatever wholesome food Is taken Into the stomach, no matter whether the stomach is In good working order or not. It rests the overworked organ and replenishes the body, the blood, the nerves, creating a healthy appetite, gives refresh sleep and the blessings which always accompany a good digestion and porper assimilation of food. In using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets no dieting Is required, simply eat plenty of wholesome food and take these Tablets at each meal, thus assisting and resting the stomach which freshing sleep and the blessings which always accompany a good digestion and proper assimilation of food. Nervous dyspepsia Is simply a tion in which some portion or portions of the nervous system are not properly nourished. Good digestion Invigorates the nervous system and every organ In the body.

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by all druggists at 50c per package. WANTED TO PURCHASE.
