Jefferson City, Feb.—There was | an avalanehe of bills introducee {n both houses of the legislature. soon as the two houses are ready. One measure that will be of inter- est to the traveling public is one by Reprecentative Griffith of Bates county which seeks to make {t a mls- demeanor for any person to drink {ntoxleating Nquors on 4 train or street car. It provides fines and tm- psisonment for anyone who takes a drink on a train and gives the con- ductors of trains and street cars the same power as deputy eheriffstor the enforcement of the law. The train that leaves Kansas City for Joplin on the Missouri Puctfic Saturday abouts seven o'clock fe known all the way to Joplin as the “drunk” train. The rocking reeling motion of thls train on the uneven track is not responeible for the name, merits. you call for, Don’t buy there is not a exemplify this, and their friends It makes weak women strong, sick women well. NO DRINKING ON TRAINS. Aaking Good Makes Friends There is no way of making /asting friends like “Making Good”; and Dr. Pierce’s medicines well P f after more than two decades of popularity are numbered by the hundreds of thousands. They have ‘made good” and they have mot made drunkards. A good, honest square-deal medicine of known composition is Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It still enjoys an immense sale, while most of the preparations that came into prominence in the earlier period of its popularity have “gone by the board” and are never more heard of. There must be some reason for this longtime popularity and that is to be found in its superior When once given a fair trial for weak stomach, or for liver and blood affections, its superior curative qualities are soon manifest; hence it has survived and grown in popular favor, while scores of less meritorious articles have suddenly flashed into favor for a brief period and then been as soon forgotten. For a torpid liver with its attendant indigestion, dyspepsia, headache, perhaps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite, with distress after eating, nervousness and debility, nothing is’ as good as Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It’s an honest, square-deal medicine with all its ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper—no secret, no hocus-pocus hum- bug, therefore don’t accept a substitute that the dealer may make a little bigger profit. Insist on your right to have what Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription Expecting it to prove a “cure-all.” It is only advised for woman’s special ailments. Less advertised than some preparations sold for like purposes, its sterling curative virtues still maintain its position in the front ranks, where it stood over two decades ago. As an ee tonic and strengthening nervine it is unequaled. rop of alcohol in it. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the original Little Liver Pills, although the first pill of their kind in the market, still lead, and when once tried are ever afterwards in favor, Easy to take as candy, They regulate and invigorate Stomach, Liver and Bowels. It won’t satisfy those who want “booze,” for as all trains on that road act the) <————— — same way but {tis the condition of Renting Land. a considerable share of passengers that gives thename, [toes through Mr. Griffish’s town of Rich Hill about bed time, and the condition of some of the people who come home on this train bas much todo with the rea- sons for the bill. In the local option counties {n Southeast Missour! there are several trains that bear similar or worse reputations. Night trains ous of Carruthersville, Cape Girardeau and Poplar Bluff, carry “wes” passengers {nto otherwise “dry” territory. The bill will be given serious considera- tion by the members from the dry counties, The city members don’t regard it with quite so much serious ness. The Secret of Long Life. A French sclentist bas discovered About the fires of March many tenant farmers will renew thelr lenses on the same, or different terme, and others will vacate and rent new ylaces, The relation of landlord and tenant fs an important one, In a! good many cases the people who en- | ter into this relation have a very | vague and inad- quate idea of whatit | between the parties provides for nothing but the mere matters of use and occupancy for a certain time and | the payment of a certain amount of| ; rent {neither crops or money, leav likely to be the subject of disagres- ment between them and possibly lit igation.

In short, he ts re- quired to so keep the place as tenant that at the expiration of his term he will surrender {¢ in as good condi- tion as 1s was when he entered It, ex- cept as affected by ordinary wear and tear and f{nevitable accidents. The law allows a farm tenant to re- move at the end of his term the im- provements which he has put upon the premises for his own use and benefit, provided they are of tempo- rary nature, and can be removed without injury to the premises. Sometimes {¢ requires a lawsult to determine these matters. An {m- provement may be of such a charac- ter—so close to the line, that a law- oer cannot make the ri,ht guess as to whether it is a fixture or merely personal property which the tenant hasa right to remove; and evena district judge might make a mistake about {t, and haue to be reversed by the supreme court. In view of the foregoing considera- tians, parties to leases should put certainty into their contracts about @ number of important details. The following matters, at least, should be definitely settled by express agree- ment, whether the lease be written or oral: Firat, an exact and accurate description of the rented premises; second, when the lease is to begin and when {¢ {s to end; third, what rent is to be paid, and when and where, if cash—or if the rent be part ofthe ctop, how much, and whenand where it is to be deliuered; fourth, what is to be done abou etraw, stalks and manure; fifth, what tem- porary improvements the tenant may put upon the premises with the privilege of removing them; sixth, what repairs, if any, the landlord is to make.
