I repeat it.” Mr. Barrett demanded that the words of Mr. Talbert be taken down, and, despite the protests of manv Republicans, he offered a resolution censuring Mr. Talbert. After a heated controversy, in which the Republican side of the House was divided between the supporters of Mr. Barrett and those who were more conservative, tha resolution was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. During the debate the House presented a scene of the greatest confusion. There were often a dozen or more men on the floor, ges» tioulating and endeavoring to make them¬ selves heard above the uoroar. The gailer- ies quickly filled up, and tho affair was the sensation of tha day at the Capitol.

Tuesday morning, August 13th, the editor of the Journal, in company with G. Y7. Tay¬ lor, the stableman of Linden, Texas, drove out seven miles northwest of Linden to the residence of Mr. John Miller, We were re¬ ceived and well entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Miller. Their son, Buford J. Miller, at atou t four years old, became pale and weak and nothing seemed to do him any good. He continued in this condition until he wa 3 about twelve years old, at times' eating too much for one or two meals and then eating but little for weeks afterward. At twelve years of ago his feet and legs began to swell, and developed bad into what his physician said was a case of dropsy. Mr. Miller had two good physicians to treat and then him; first J. Dr. A. J. Oliver, of Linden, Dr, P. Mills, of Almira, Texas. They both, They after'making a trial, gave up tho case. could not benefit the patient. Mr. Miller then tried a number of paten! medicines, without any good result. Hefcad spent much money and his Son Buford ap¬ peared to have no blood, no appetite, and was so weak that he could not walk a hun¬ dred yards without stopping to rest. Mr. Miller had given up in despair when oueday a neighbor Rev. H G. Echals, who lives near Linden, Mr. advised him to try Pink Pills. Miller said he had no hope, and did not want to make the trial, but his neighbor insisted. The next question was wheroeould. he get the piII 3 . He went to Jefferson found that J. F. Crow, a druggist, had them. Mr. Crow was hu old neighbor and friend and persuaded him to give tho pills n thorough trial, promising that if ho would take throe boxes and Buford received no benefit from them he would charge nothing. Mr. Miller took three boxes of Pink Pil!.- iiome with him, and says before Buford had taken one box there was a. wonderful im¬ provement. This was eighteen months ago. To-day Buford Miller is a stout, hourly young man about nineteen years old. We met several of his schoolmates at Lin¬ den who state there has been a wonderful change in Buford Miller. He Is wall known by tha people of Linden, His mother, Mrs. Miller, was also afflicted With uch dropsy about seven years, suffering m in the spring of the year. After seeing that Pink Pills were oenefitiug her son she concluded to try them for herself. This wa? about a year ago. and she remarked that if ic had not beenfor Pink Pills She did not know what would, have become ol 1 her. See had said no symptoms of dropsy the past spring. She too much can not be said in praise of Pink Piiis. Mr. Miller referred 113 to J. F. Stoveall.the druggist in Linden, Eb. Fr.irxier, merchant, and many others who are well acquainted with his fa niiy and know the facts. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are not a patent medicine in the sense that name implies.
