Our neighbor, Yuma county, is at tracing considerable attention at the present time. Thousands of acres of new land are being developed and the people are preparing for boom the coming season. There never has be- fore in the history of the county been such a demand for lands, both i'm proved and unimproved. Lots in the town of Yuma are going up, and a general feeling of security and pros. perity abounds on every hand. .--Phoe- nix Gazette.

There Is now no doubt that the movement on foot at San Diego, to build short line eastward to St. Louis via Yuma and Phoenix, will result in the opening of active opera tions in the construction of the road at an early day. The road is a cer- tainty and there are many among our leading business men who believe that the road will be in operation within the next eighteen months, at least be- tween San Diego and Phoenix, and probably much farther east. The Kansas Southern, which we have here tofore noted in these columns, has pushed steadily to the southwest and has almost crossed the Texas panhan- dle into New Mexico; it is one of the enterprises of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe people, and when completed across New Mexico and Arizona will take the place of the Atlantic & Paci- fic, 8 road which that company is now leasing. It is probable that the active work of the company in pushing the new line has given rise to the recent rumor that they were about to relin- anish thsir lease of the Atlantic x Daclic Phoenix Herald.

1 Ido not believe that
 Ayers Sarsapariila

 to take, gives strength
 to the body, and pro
 duces a more perma-

 medicine I ever used. -E. Haines, North

 I have used Ayers
 Sarsaparilla, in my family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is taken faithfully it will thoroughly eradicate this terrible disease. W, F. Fowler, M. D., Greenville, Tenn.
 For forty years I have suffered with Erysipelas. I have tried various remedies for my complaint, but found no relief until I commenced using Ayers Sarsaparilla. After taking ten bot ties of this medicine I am completely cured. M. c. Amesbury, Rockport, Me.
 I have suffered, for years, from Catarrh, which was so severe that it destroyed my appetite and weak ened my syste m. After trying other remedies, without re- lief, I began to take Ayers Sarsaparilla, and, in a few months, was cured. Susan l.. Cook, 9O9 Albany st., Boston, Mass.
 Ayers Sarsaparilla is superior to any blood purifier that I ever tried. I have taken it for Scrofula, c anker, and Salt Rheum, and received benefit from it. It is good, also, for a weak stomach. Millie Jane Peirce, s. Bradford, Mass. 1t arsapariIla, Aver & Co.,, Lowell, Mass. six bottles, S5.
