i The Brownsville Herald. OFFICIAL COUNTY AND CITY JOURNAL Jesse O. Wheeler, Proprietor. Consolidated in 1893 with the Daily Cos mopolitan which was TJublished in Brownsville, for sixteen years. LAST WEEK OF THE MOVING PICTURE THEATRE Entered at the Postoffice. Brownsville, as second-class matter. Texas FRIDAY, AUGUST 2. 1907 'GOOD ADVICE FOR CORPUS CHRIS7I Read Dr. Brumby's statement and prosecute the "yellow fever" liar who is trying to get up a scare 3iere because there are ja. few mild cases of ordinary dengue fever at Brownsville. There is nothing to be gained by circulating such lies while on the contrary there is much to be lost by scaring peo ple! Corpus Christi Caller. Good advice, dear Caller, but cto you know that you will have to begin right in your own office, with the prosecution? Not that the Caller itself has done anything to promote tnis anogetner un necessary and utterly indefensible vtscare,"- but one of that paper's employes did assuredly warn certain gentleman against coming to Brownsville, because "it was reported in Corpus Christi that there was an epidemic of yellow fever here.' The said typo was not the only offender in Corpus Christi, however, and it is to be &oped that the others may also profit by the Caller's hint and stop spreading such slanderous and in jurious rumors concerning this town. In the case of Corpus fChristi the work done there against Brownsville is apt to prove ooomerang against that place, as many timid persons who were in tending to attend the Epworth encampment may stay away, on account of the proximity of Corpus 'Chnsti to Brownsville; that is, if tthey have gotten wind of the false reports that were spread in Corpus about the epidemic here. The people of Brownsville are not in stvery good humor over this "scare" and it is to be hoped that - he matter may be hushed up . "without delay, as this town, has . .already suffered enough. But it -would not be a bad idea at all if those responsible for the false nr nors can be traced and prosecuted for the part they have played in spreading them. A city has the sight, just as any other corporation itas, to sue a person for libel and to recover damages for the same Such an example would doubtless JOzve a very salutary effect, making -people more cautious about start ing talk about towns that happen "o be so unfortunate as to have a Jittle dengue epidemic in future.

True' nmerano M There is a growing sentiment that temper ance is surest and best promoted by the use of PabstBIue Ribbon, which contains less than 3j of alcohol The use of Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer satisfies the natural desire for a mild stimulant without creating a habit for strong drink. In countries where the most beer is consumed, in temperance is rarest. Pabst BlueRibbon The Beer of Quality is so rich in the food values of Pabst Eight-Day Malt, and in the tonic properties of the choicest hops, that it is a genuine health-builder. The system frequently requires a mild stimulant, which issupplied by the small percentage of alcohol which produces no injurious effects. The ex tractives of malt and hops aid the digestion and soothe the nerves, making Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer the ideal temperance drink. When ordering beer, ask for Pabst Blue Ribbon.
