A Clever Trick.
It certainly looka like lit, but
there ia reallv no trick about it.
Anybody can try it who has Lame
Back and Weak Kidneys, Malaria
or nervous troubles. We mean he
can cure himself right away by
taking Electric Bitters. This med
icine tones up the whole evstem,
acts as a stimulant to - Liver and
Kidneys, is a blood purifier and
nerve tonic. It Cures constipation,
headache, fainting spells, sleepless
ness and melancholy. It is purely
vegetable, a mild laxative, and re
stores the system to its natural
vigor. Try Electric Bitters and be
convinced that they are a miracle
worker. Every bottle guaranteed.

A Town balltin aday.
Mountain Yiew, Washita
county, Oklahoma Territory, is
a record breaker for rapid
growth. On Monday the 9th inat.,
it was a mere forest but it was
surveyed and 800 people settled
on it the same day. A mayor,
alderman and treasurer were
elected and all : the municipal
machinery was set in motion. The
explanation is that it is within I a
profitable mining region and most
of these people were in camp
near the place they selected for a
town and when it was laid out
they made a rush.
Fish in Hot Water.
A fisbritj naturally a cold-blooded
animal; but if you take a fish and
keep him in slightly tepid water for
a month or so he will soon get used
to it, and be perfectly healthy. Then
if yon like, yoa can iDcrea&e the
water's temperature. The fish will
not pay any attention to the change
if it be mdt gradually, and will eat
a good deal more than in quite cold
water . Increase the heat still more,
and he wiii develop a strong appe
tite, and .his skin will look clean
and glossy. You may goon with
this treatment for any length of
time, always slightly adding to the
heat of the water and giving the
fish more and more to eat, until the
water is as hot as yonr hand can
bear. If you then put the fiah in a
radiated aquarium that ip an so
quarium with heat playing on a part
of it, so that onehalf the water if

Beats tbe Klondike.
Mr, A C Thomas, of Marysville
Tex, has found a more valuable
discovery than has yet been made
initio Klondike. For years he suf
fered untold agony from consump
tion, accompanied by hemorrhages;
and was absolutely cured by Dr,
King's New Discovery for Con
sumption, Coughs "and Colds. He
declares that gold is of little value
in comparison with this marvelous
cure; would have it, even if lit cost
a hundred dollars a bottle. Asthma,
Bronchitis and all throat andlung
aflection8 are positively cured by
Dr. King's New Discovery for Con
sumption. Trial bottles free at P h
Fetzer's drug store. Regular size 50
