Now, Mr.. Gilman says he is pre-

Now is the time to speak. If the
people of HALEY wish the road built,
they must move at once, as Mr.. Gil.

A THING OF THE PAST,
The Union Sunday School Turns Its
Property Over to the Public School,
and Disbands.

The Union Sunday School, of
HALEY, has ceased to exist, a resolu
ton to disband having been adopted
Yesterday, at the suggestion of the
teachers, to-wit: Mrs. Ensign, Mrs
Rupert, Mrs. Sullivan, and Messrs.
MCGOWAN and Hunt.
The school property, consisting of a
$3.50 organ, library of several hun.
dred volumes, and treasury of about
$50, was by resolution adopted unan-
imously, ordered turned over to the
trustees of the public school, and Mrs.
Rupert and Miss Jessie Riley and
Mr.. Hunt were appointed commit
tee to notify the trustees of this action.
The Union Sunday School was
called into being months before there
was any organized congregation, and
years before any church was built, in
Haley. At first children Of all de.
nominations attended-thus recalling
the earlier and purer days of the
broadcast Christisnity-and all went
well with it, as pretty much every
body felt sort of personal interes:
in it. Late y, however, since the
erection of denominational places OF
worship, other Sabbath schools have
been started with memberships linn
tied to those protesting the faith OF
the particular church in which they
are held; and, although the Union
School still retained most of its mem
bership it was finally deemed best to
dissolve and close it.
The school will live in the memory
of old Haileyites as something very
pleasant to dwell upon-a reminder
of the times when it was deemed
good for the youth of the town to
figuratively speaking, "dwell together
in unity"

THE COUNTY HOSPITAL.
An Excellent Institution, Excellently
Conducted.

SVuuuCVus
To THE EDITOR OF THE TIMEs:-
The public may feel some interest
in the manner in which the County
Hospital is kept and conducted.
The building is large and airy, ap-
propriately apportioned into rooms or
berths, with proper Offices and med
icine room. There is a bathtub al
ways ready to afford mineral bath of
such degree Of temperature as de-
sired. There are 20-odd persons now
in the hospital, including patients, as
sistants, nurses, etc. A majority of
the patients are in the Miners Hos
pital, which adjoins the county build
ing. All are under the immediate
care of Ste ward Mcleod, of Canada,
brother of the gentleman who laugh,

bower for the physicians-B Brown &
McKay-who have charge.
Hardly day passes wi'hou: some
one coming. Complaints range from
the Alpha to the Omega of disease,
and all are treated kindly and, so far,
most successfully. But it is an aw-
fully lonely place for those of active
temperament and ambition to get W
and be doing. The stiffness of the
graveyard is comparable to it and j,
alone is. The newspaper men would
do great charity if they would give
the hospital their cast-aside exchanges

Don't Experiment.

You cannot afford to waste time in
experimenting when your lungs are in
danger. Consumption always seems at
first only cold. Do not permit any
dealer to impose upon you with some
imitation of DR.. Kings New Discovery
for consumption, coughs and colds, but
he sure YOU get the genuine. Because
he can make more profit he may tell you
he has something just as good, orjust the
same. Don't be deceived, but insist
upon getting DR.. Kings Ne" Discovery,
which is guaranteed to give relief in all
throat, lung and chest affections. Trial

FROM A Grateful HEART.

Early IN October, 1884, l was taken
with inhammatory rheumatism so that
l was confined to my bed, and could
not even move the toes on one of my
feet. could not bear to have nay
clothes changed or TO be handled in
anywise. With all the remedies ad
ministered l found no relief. a
friend, seeing the advertisement OF
S. S. S. as a rheumatic cure, secured
some for me. This was in February
1885, and after taking six small bot
ties l noticed a change in the feeling
of the limbs, and could turn over II
bed almost without assistance or pain
After a dozen bottles had been used
could walk on crutches / am nov
able to walk without crutches, and t.
do the cooking fol family of four
and nearly all the homework.
