CrULF COAST BIVALVES THAT

The Point Isabel Product Is in Season
from the First of 3tay Until
the First Day of Sep-

Married women have a feeling of
P;fy f'jr tfce bachelor and a contempt
for the spins'er.
The fact Is no! generally known, even
in Teta ., that the tropical oyster,
which is etr:re!y different in appear-
ance and hatii'jj from the oysters found
in the markets of this country, is suc-
cessfully raised aiong the extreme
southern guif coast of this state, says
no Austin (Tex.; report. F. W. Sea-
bury, epeaker of the Texas house of
representatives, who has made a study
of oysters for several years, says in re-
gard to this tropical breed of oysters:
' The oys'er which is grown in the
vicinity of Point Isabel acd along the
gulf coast as lar as a short distance be-
low Corp i# Christi is a tropical bivalve
and of wh j!Jy different species from the
oysters aiong other portions of the
Texas coast and Atlantic seaboard. The
Point Isabel oyster Is eaten during the
summer season, commencing about the
1st of May, the season lasting till about
the 1st of September. This tropical oy-
ster begins to spawn in September,
which is Just at the time the oysters
north of here become fit for eating. The
Point Isabel oyster spawns in fall and
winter, and the northern oyster, even
those at Corpus Christi and Port Lavaca,
spawn in summer. The Point Isabel oy-
ster can be ea'en in any of the months
not containing the letter 'r.' The re-
verse is true of the other oysters.
The fact That the Point Isabel oyster
has a reason entirely different from ;
p that of other oy??ers should make it !n
demand, and I look for a great industry
to be built up in cultivating and ship-
ping these bivalves. The Laguna Madre,
where the Point Isabel oyster is grown,
affords a splendid place for oyster beds.
The lagoon is four or five mile-: wide, anc
the wat«-r is highly impregnated with
salt, which insures the growth of good
oysters. With direct railroad connec-
tion with the outside world there is no
reason why an immense oyster ship-
ping business j-hould not be built up at
Point
Of course the people would have to
be tdu'^ite'i Into eating oysters during
the hot months of summer, but I believe
that could be <■, Mly done. I know of my
own knowledge that these oysters form
a most palatable dish on the hottest days
of summer. I have eaten them many
times. In Brownsville these oysters ar*
Hie principal food for many people all
summer long. There Is a fine opportun-
ity awaiting some enterprising person
to plant oyster beds in the Laguna
Ma die, in the Point Isabel region. Tt
will bring a big fortune to whoever un-
der! alteii it. These tropical oysters are
fur better than the other Texas oysters.
They are smaller than the Corpus Chris-
ti, Port Lavaca or Galveston oysters,
and more resemble the famous Blue
Points. Oyster roasts have been a popu-
lar form of enetrtainment for a long
time during the summer months at
Point Isabel."
The fish and oyster laws contain a
provision exempting oysters from a cer-
tain point below Corpus Chrlstl from
the operation of that provision which
prohibits thflr shipment and sale dur-
ing the months which do not contain the
letter "r." This exemption was placed
on the bill through the effort of Mr.
Seabury. There is, therefore, nothing
in the way of the Point. Isabel oysters
being shipped during the summer
months If a market can be made for
them.

Little Girl's Obstinate Case of Eczema
—Mother Says: "Cuticura Reme-
dies a Household Standby."
"Last year, after- having my little-
girl treated by a very prominent
physician, for an ohstinate case of
eczema, I resorted to the Cuticura
Remedies, and was so well pleased
with the almost Instantaneous relief
afTorded that we discarded the physi-
cian's prescription and relied entirely
on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint-
ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we
commenced with the Cuticura Reme-
dies her feet and limbs were cover-
ed with running sores. In about six
weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
the trouble. We find that the Cuti-
cura Remedies are a valuable house-
hold standby, living as we do, twelve
miles from a doctor, and where it
costs from twenty to twenty-five dol-
lar® to come up on the mountain.

mount, Walden's Ridge, Tenn., Oct

All women work; some in their
homes, seme in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ctasing treadmill, eaminff
their daily bread.
A!! are subject to the same physical
raws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of femaie complaints, tumors,
ulcerati n, falling' and displace-
ments or perhaps irregularity or
6uppresvioD, causing backache, ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
. Tbey especially require an invigorat-
ing', sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day, to sleep v.'ell at night, aad
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
E*ruggling to earn a livelihood or per-
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is so
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin of which is due to
some derangement of tho female or-
ganism.
^ Miss F. Orser. of 14 Warrenton Street.
Boston, tells women how to avoid such
suffering; she writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
" I suffered misery for several rears -*ifh
female irregularities. My back a'lied, I had
bearing-down pains, and frequent headaches,
lydia E. Piakham's Vegetable Compound
I could not sleep and cotild hardly drag
around. 1 consulted two physicians without
relief, and ns a Inst resort, I tried Lvdia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and" to my
surprise, every ache and pain left me. I
gained ten pounds aud am iu perfect health."
Miss Pearl Ackers, of 327 North Sum-
mer street, Nashville, Tenn., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
"I suffered with painful periods, sever*
backache, bearing-down pains, pains across
tho abdomen; was very nervous and irrita-
ble, and my trouble giew worse everv month.
"My physician failed to help m'e and I
decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. I soon found it was doing me
good. All my pnins and aches disappeared,
and I no longer ftar my monthly periods."
Lydia E, Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound is the unfailing cure for all these
troubles. It strengthens the proper
musclcs, and displacement with all its
horrors will no more crush you.
Backache, dizziness, iainting, bear-
ing-down pains, disordered stomach,
moodiness, dislike of friends and society
—all symptoms of the one cause—will
be quickly dispelled, and it will make
you strong and well.

ferings to a woman, and receive help-
ful advice free of cost. Address Mrs.
1 inkham, Lynn, Mass. The present
Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law
of Lydia E. Pinkham and for twenty-
five years she has, under her direction
