Id another column will be
found a statement from Dep
uty Sheriff Mclnnis relative
to the arrest, conviction and
liberation of the men accused
of vagrancy. While this
plain statement of facts
places a somewhat different
light on the arresting and
convicting officers, who sim
ply did their duties as such
—the^e can be no excuse for
chaining those men like wild
beasts, with chains around
their necks, and too much
..praise cannot be given Mr.
^ Cohn and Mr. Cook for caus-
ing their release—"I was sick
and in prison, and ye visited
me."

Dear Old Advocate:—As it has
hflH oeen a good while since 1
have written you, I will try to
write a few lines.
We have-had the best season
that we have had since the flood
here. The grass is coming fast
and is taking a nice start to grow
and what Borghum cane that was
planted for feed purposes,
seemed almost dead before the
rain but is now doing fine, and
the farmers are planting all kinds
of feed stuffs to try and raisv
feed for their stock, as we won't
make any corn in this country at
all unless it is made from the late
planting. Now, Mr. Editor, 1
tell you things got to looking
very serious before the rain, a 3
there agreat many people leaving
this country going east, having
sold off a great many of their
stock as they had neither 'grass
or water thougn since the ?ain
has come the people are in bettc r
spirits. Cotton is looking fine.
i see from the papers that the
State of Texas is having a warm
fiarht over prohibition. I have
been here three years and I find
the bootlegging class always got
whiskey, But I want to tell you
n^w, as far as Jefferson county
the better citizens and officers
have got the bootlegger on the
run, and whereever they have
got good officers they nro enforc-
ing the prohibition law. But
where the officers are in favor of
bootlegging you can't enforce
the prohibition law.
We have be?n made to feel
very sad at the dcath of so many
of our friends, dying in East
Texas. W. J Bridges.
Kill More Than Wild Beasts
The number of people killed
year'y b; wild beasts don't ap-
proach the vast number killed
by disease germs. No life is
safe from their atticks. They're
in air, water, dust, even food.
But grand protection is afforded
by Electric Bitters, whi-h de-
stroy and expel the<e deadly dis
e se germs from the system.
Tnat's why chills, fever and
ague, all ma'arial and many
bl od diseases yiJd promptly to
this wonderful blood purifier.
Try them, and enjoy the glorious
health and new strength they
will give you. Money baclr if

Deserter Returned.
This morning a deserter from
the ranks of Uncle Sam's army
gave himself up to our city au-
thorities and City Marshal Perry
returned him to camp at San An-
tonio.
Escaped With His Life.
' Twenty one yeirsago I faced
an awful deith," writes, H. B
Martin, Port Harrelson, S. C.
"Doctors said I had consumption

looked like it, hure enough. I
tried everything I could hear of
for my cough, and was und. r
;he treatment; of the best doctor

"My packages from downtown!" she

Slipping into a dresalng gown, she
rushed to the back door. There was
nobo4y there. She opened the front
door with the same results. Thea she
attacked the speaking tube leading
to the front entrance downstairs.
There was no response to her hallos.
"Oht" she said shortly a few seo
onds later, as she gazed from the front
window where ahe had waadered and
got a view of the postman slgtagging
across tbe atreet belo#. "It waa his

dropped the toast ahe was to

"Smiths don't live here," called back
Mrs. Jenklnson. Presently there was

BLOOD POISON
Contagious Blood Poison manifests itself in the most loathsome
symptoms, such as ulcerated mouth and throat, copper-colored spot*
and even sores and ulcers on different portions of the body. The
poison causes the hair to fall out, and sometimes the glandular synem
is attacked. No medicine can cure Contagious Blood Poison which
does not rid the circulation of every particle of ttie insidious
virus. The least taint left in the blood will break out afresh when
treatment is left off. S.S.S. is the real and eertam curti for Conts-
gious Blood Poison; it goes into the circulation, and by removing
every particle of the poison, and adding, rich, healthy qualities to the
blood, forever cures this powerful disorder. All who suffer with this
disease may cure themseves In the privacy of their homes by using
S.S.S. and following instructions contained in our Homei Treatment
Book, which we will sendrtogether with any medical advice desired,
free of charge. 5.S.S. is for sale at drug stores.
