The first of last fall my little boy broke out with some kind of itching trouble. Thinking his blood was bad I gave him a blood tonic, but he got1' worse, and could not sleep at nignt. i S me said he had itch, and told me 1 what was good for it. I used what people said would cure it, but nothing did any good. My other two children and myself took the disease from him in January, 1911. I saw Hunt's Cure advertised and I purchased a 50c. box. It helped my little boy so much I got a box for each of the family, and now we are all well of that awifal trouble. Hunt's Cure will cure itch in a short time if you will go by directions. We had it in its worse form, and used Hunt's Cure, and we are now all well. Thanks to A. B. Richard* Medicine Co , of Sherman, Texas, manufacturers of such healing medicine. Mrs. John W.

I ""On"Tue8day morning fire destroyed the handsome brick building, in which was located The Home National Bank, the Kanfmann Drug Co., the Citizens Telephone Co., and the offices of Dr. J. J. Wingard, Dr. Frank G. Roberts and T. C. Callison. The fire was first discovered about 3 o'clock by Mr. Albert Taylor, the faithful night policeman, who at once gave the alarm. Within a short while the entire populace of the town was on the spot and a "bucket brigade" was formed. It was only by heroic work that the residence of G. M. Harman on the front, and the residence of Mrs. J. E. Kanfmann, in the rear were saved. Sheriff Sim J. Miller, Mr. B. H. Barre, and John Williams, a negro, were caught beneath a falling wall, and were injured. Sheriff Miller was injured on the back and on the leg. Mr. Barre is severely, injured about the head, and John Williams was injured _ 1 i. i.1 1 3 aoout wie neau. Dr. J. J. Wingard is perhaps the heaviest loser, as he lost practically everything, including his fine library and surgical instruments. His loss will sum up $3,000 with only $300 insurance. The Home National Bank lost about $5,000, which is fully covered by insurance. The magnificent safe withstood the flames, and the funds of the bank and all papers are safe. The Kaufmann Drug Co. is a heavy loser, the stock having been only partially covered by insurance. The total loss of the firm is placed at $5,000, with $3,000 insurance. About $1,000 worth of merchandise was saved. Mrs. J. E. Kaufmann, the owner of the building occupied by the Kaufmann Drug Company, carried no insurance, and her Jo9s is estimated at from $3,500 to $4,000. The Citizens' Telephone Company places its loss at $1,200. Manager George, in addition, sustained a personal loss of several hundred dollars. Dr. Roberts and T. C. Callison estimate their loss at ?500, with no insurance. ,Dr. Rice B. Harman, manager of The Kaufmann Drug Company, is also a loser, possibly to the extent of about 1300. The Home National Bank and The Kaufmann Drug Company have opened up in the Department store building, temporarily.
