to use vulgar phrase, have the bulge on
the business. 1t is believed to be one Of
the greatest mining enterprises in Amer
lea. Through long years Messrs. Ben
Hampton and w. s. Godbe have been

How SHE CAME By IT. Some females
are always watching their husbands
movements and playing eavesdropper,
but such people are sure to get left early

says the Times. suspected that some one
was peeping through the key.hole of his
door, and he prepared to investigate.
He loaded syringe with about two
ounces of old back number pepper sauce
and squirted it through the key.hole.
Later in the day he found his wife with
her left eye tied up, and on asking what
| the trouble was she said that she had
been cutting wood and chip had struck
her in the eye. When he asked to ex-
anime it such wicked look came into
the other eye that he didn't press the

don't get swiped on the head with a
skillet when his back is turned he will be
in big luck"

A SAD DEArH.-In Philadelphia re.
Gently at coroner's inquest over the
body Of child, the jury returned ver-
dict that the death was caused by the ad.
ministration of patent cough syrup, con.
tanning morphia. DR.. San'l X. Cox, Of
Washington, states that not one cough
medicine in ten is free from this objec.

tests he endorses the Red Star Cough

free from opiates, poisons and narcotics.
He regards it as a most happy and valu'
