Thk Congressional Record now
comes regularly to Thb Herald
for which thanksa re due to Con
gressman Garner. The Record is an
old friend, aud although much of it
4s dry reading, it oftrn contains
some very interesting "stuff."
Kbw that the name of "Run

m Hidalgo county, it would be
well for the good citizens to see
that it always runs in the right di

.That little town is just now on

as the right road for any town.
The practice of offering chances
an a raffle as premiums on ad mis
sions to a show probably reached
the limit ' a few days ago in the
taty of St. Louis, when a real baby
vwas raffled and went to the holder
'of the lucky number on admission
pickets to' some show or other. This
is about as near barbarism as the
SJnited States has come yet.
The next change of mind of
those government expert witnesses
in regard to the Brownsville raid
is awaited with interest. Most like
4ly the next thing will be testimony
xo snow mat mere wasn t any
shooting done at Brownsville at all,
-2ut that the whole story was just
gotten up to give' the Brownsville
people a chance to send a number
of themselves to Washington as
Tyitnesses, just to give them free
glimpse of the national capital.
The latest -distinguished sports
saan who wants to come to Texas
"for game, is former Governor Peck
-f Wisconsin. In a letter to the
.- s-erhor of Texas, he announces
his intention of enjoying the fine
- shooting this state offers. The
rgreat areas of Texas as yet unset
tled provide a home for all manner
of animal life. Besides such "var
saints" as wild cats, panthers,
-syolves and bear, Texas has deer,

DOING THEIR DUTY
Scores of Brownsville Readers Are Learn
ing the Duty of trie Kidneys.
To filter the blood is the kidney's
duty.
When, they fail to do this the
kidneys are sick.
Backache and many kidney ills
follow;
Urinary trouble, diabetes.
Ddan's Kidney Pills cure them
all;
Jacob Hirsch, Custom House Officer',-
Guadalupe Street, Port La
vaca, Texas, says: "I was greatly
annoyed by severe painsacross my
back andkidneys for several years.
When I would stoop over, I would
have to put my hand across my
back as a sort of support which
would help me to endure the
intense pain. The action of the
kidneys was at times too frequent
then again too scanty and highly
colored. Having read about Doan'
Kidney Pills in the newspapers
I procured a box. Since using
them, the backache has entireley
gone and my kidneys now act cor
rectly. I recommend Doan'
Kidney Pills to all people who
have kidney trouble."
Plenty more proof like this from
Btownsuille people. Call at Geo

what customers report.
