Joy and Happiness.
rt should be our endeavor to
extract as much joy and happi
ness from life as possible. Be
happy and make other happy. The
first condition of happiness is
health and the lirst condition of
health is a perfect digestion of
food. If this digestion becomes
poor, from whatever cause, Trin
er's American Elixir of Bitter
Wine will again bring it to reg
ular activity. It will drive out of
the body all matter not belonging
there and make Ihe body clean
and able to accept enough food.
It will aid digestion. Use it in
loss of appetite, constipation, in
ternal pains and cramps, in
nervousness and weakness. In
diseases of the stomach and the
intestines it is a very valuable
medicine, working promptly and
safely. At drug stores. Jos.

The reports Ihis morning from
the bedside of District Judge II
1). Travis are most discouraging
to Ins familv and friends ami inn
little hone of his being with them
long is held out. It was almos
impossible to rouse him las
evening at all, and he seems to b
trraduallv sinking into uncon
sciousness. For the past several
days he has not been able to take
nourishment of any kind," and as
a result has gradually grown
weaker, and if it had not been for
his wonderful vitality would have
hie to live through the
long suffering" he has undergone
The low condition of the judgi
will be keenly felt by everyone in
this city and county, as hi
friends are .without number
throughout his judicial district,
and thev have been hoping that
perhaps he would be able to re
gain his health and recover from
the malady that, has stricken him,
but his condition at present bids
them to despair of his recovery.
EVERYBODY IS FOR THE
SALES DAY PROPOSITION
. Now that Ihe matter of holding
the sales day in this city has been
gotten under such satisfactory
headway, every citizen in IMalts
mouth should get in line ami be
gin to boost the proposition, as it
will make one of the best methods
of attracting the farmers and per
sons residing near this city into
town. Wherever the idea has been
put into practice it has resulted
in drawing large crowds and con
tributed greatly to the building up
of the places by getting the people
in a habit of trading in tlie towns
where these sales have been held.
The advantage lo the farmer who
has anything to sell is easy to see,
as he can bring it in and Ihe auc
tioneer hired for the occasion will
auction it off for him without
cost, and in addition, to that the
exceptional bargain that will be
offered at the stores will prove to
be money-saving opportunities
for Ihe farmers. The entertain
ment question will be looked after
by having a concert given by the
Hurlinglon band, which alone is
worth the time of anyone lo hear.
(Jet in line and let us all work lo
make this sales day one big, howl
ing success in every way, and
when Saturday, October 11, comes
around there is no doubt Ihe city
will be well tilled by visitors from
the neighboring towns and
country.
