A Last Legal Resort.

“There doesn’t seem to be any justice left in this country for murderers,” observed an Austin merchant to a companion; “juries are continually disagreeing, and law and order are suffering a relapse. ” “I know a good way to enforce the law, if they would only do it. ” “How would you proceed?” inquired the Austin merchant, with some show of curiosity. “Why, you say that juries are always disagreeing, don’t you?” “Yes.” “Well, then, I’d put the murderer on the jury, and then he would be sure to be hung, wouldn’t he ?” “Yes, I suppose so, but then he wouldn’t mind it much, as long as he got as 2 jury fee for .being 4 hung.”— Texas Siftings. Tampico Tenn.—Rev. D. F. Manly says: “Brown’s Iron Bitters relieved me of Indigestion and nervousness after physicians failed.” A Nebraska man refused to marry a girl because she powdered. He couldn’t let himself down to her pale. Vigob, strength and health, all found in one bottle of Brown’s Iron Bitters.
