A Flying Trip.
^Editor Enterprise.
Through the courtesy of Farm and
Ranch, Î was enabled to make a
flying trip to the "Glorious West,''
though "the low hung clouds dropped
their garnered fullness down" and
mud was less than six feet deep and
rising. We ^reached Stamford iu
Jones county at 5:30 p. m., on time.
There we took a hack—the "Haskell
Flyer" and got to that historic town
at 10:30p. m. and I can tell you that
black mud is not the only mud that
sticks to carriage wheels in Texas.
About four times in the first four
miles our conductor had to stop the
train and get out and claw the mud
off the wheels for they had got
"solid." But finally we struck bet
ter road and sailed into Haskell in a
sweeping trot, thanks to West Texas
horses, the best goers and stayers
on earth. About twelve o'clock that
night I reached the home of my
daughter, the sweetest and best wo
man on earth, and the heartfelt kiss
of welcome from her and those two
handsome Texas boys paid for all
the worry of travel and mud, and
made the world seem brighter and
better.
For seven days and nights I en
joyed the scenery in that lovely
country where the prairie dogs bark
all day and the cavote wolves howl
all night. Now these dogs are not
of the species of dog that the poet
says "The wistful dog looked up
and whined a welcome home," but
' they can let you know that they are
there all the same. We drove into
the nice little town of Haskell every
day and, of course, I met a great
many people; and strange to say
every one seemed to be glad to meet
Uncle Snort, and that put me on
my mettle, and cauned mn to do
much biff talking. Much of which,
I cod fee β, that if a man wore bay
ing troth at one dollar per yard, he
would not be willing to pay more
£5 cent» per yard for. When men
would say to me -'Why Uncle Snort
I thought that you was an old man;
I am astonished to see you looking
so young." I would say "Oh, no,
widowers and old maids never get
old." It would have done your
heart good too, if you could have
heard them asking me about Inno
cence Abroad and Jumbo. "Tell us
what sort of fellow is that Inno-i
cence, anyway." 1 would say.
"We'l, boys, he is just a jolly good !
fellow since he has married, and !
his wife has sent a flood of bright
ness and sweetness into his life.
He now washes his face and combs
his hair every morning before break
fast and shaves off his beard about
twice a week. His wife has got him
used to wearing good clothes and
keeping good company :md if she
can keep him away from circuses
and dog and pony shows, she is in a
fair way to have him tolerably well
civilized in a few more years. It is
truf that when he gets out among
the boys his first love will rush into
the gallery of his memory and then
he unlimbers and turns loose some
high colored anecdotes which is
very severe on ones imagination to
believe. It is true that making a
christian of him was a mammoth
undertaking but his wife is not only
master of the situation, but is equal
to the occasion and is very fast get
ting him under good control."
"Well," says one, "now tell us
about Jumbo."
"Oh, Jumbo, he is a dead give
away. He goes all the gaits from a
street parade to a chicken fight.
He is rather small of stature but
wears the biggest smiles and more
of them than any man in ten coun
ties. He pleads law in the court
house and tells big yarns on the
streets, and is destined some day to
represent his district in congress if
tiis tongue holds out and his face
don't kill him."
"What's tlie matter with his
face?" asked some one.
"Oh, he's so furiously ugly that,
iiis wife or one of his little daugh- j
ters have to sit up every night until !
midnight to wake him up to let iiis
face rest." Just then George Wil
liams came up and said, "Say,
Uncle Snort, what about the new
invention that Jumbo i s having
patented."

Paine's Celery
Compound
Cures Rheumatism
The Only Medicine that Pre
vents a Return of the
Terrible Disease
Rheumatism, which doe» its terri
ble work in the muscles, joints and
tissues, is caused by uric acid which
gathers in the blood. To get rid of
this poisonous acid which produces
the irritations, pains, agonies, in
flammations, and spellings peculiar
to rheumai'stn, Paine's Celery Com
pound should he used without delay.
No other medicine gives such
prompt, cheering and happy results.
It is the only medicine that prevents
a return of the dreaded disease.
Paine's Celery Compound braces th"
nerves, the blood is quickly cleared
of all irritating poisons, tissue and
muscle are built up, and the digest
ive organs perfect'y toned. Do not
treat with indifference the slightest
rheumatic symptoms; the early use
of Paine's Celery Compound will
save you weeks and months of
suffering. Mr. 8. D. Conway, 8t.
Louis, Mo., was permanently cured
by Paine's Celery Compound after
repeated failures with other medi
cines and physicians ; he says:
"I am 04 years of age, and have
lived in St. Louis '27 years, and all
this time, with the exception of 3
years, 1 have served In the Engin
eers' Department as Inspector. Last
winter I contracted rheumatism and
was laid up. I tried all remedies
and doctors, but all failed until 1
struck Paine's Celery Comeound,
which has made a permanent cure
in my case. I have recommended it
to many, and they have used it with
the same result."
