Our neighbors have it that Ottawa
is considerably excited over copper
discovery in the Catlin-king well.
This is news. Nugget copper has been
found among the stones in the bed Of
Fox river great many times and a
faithful hunt would no doubt find
many more, yet no one has ever become
excited about copper in the Fox river
valley. The truth is the finding of
copper is but an evidence of geological
changes in the far past or of the move
ments of vast bodies of ice in the
glacial period from the Lake Superior
region south to the Illinois valley, car
rying these pieces Of native copper
hundreds of miles from their native
home, finally dropping them in the

IS. S. S.. For four years my health
was wretched, ruined-my life, a life
of constant pain and misery and tor
ture. Food SOured on my stomach,
and what | ate to-day | would vomit
tomorrow. My sleep at night was
broken with the most horrible visions
in dreams, so much SO, that | could
not bear to be left alone; chronic
darrhpa, painful cough that threat
ened me with consumption my feet
and ankles were twisted out of all pro-
portion, and my limbs Swelled more or
less. | could not walk except on a
level floor, and then with difficulty,
and for a while could not get in or out
of bed without assistance.
The pressure of my finger on my body
would leave it's impression, and in
short | had drOpsy, in addition to my
other affections.
Two doctors treated me faithfully
during these four years but did me no
g0Od-the medicines they gave me
were as useless as Stagnant water. My
friends thought | would die, suffering
as | was with such combination Of
diseases.
In 1887 / discontinued the use of the

"He most lives who thinks the most,
Acts the noblest, feels the best,
And he whose heart beats quickest
Lives the longest, lives in one hour
More than in years do some whose
Fat blood sleeps as 1t slips along their

These lines describe that condition
of perfect health which all men and
women irish to enjoy. TO be able to
think clearly, to incline to do noble
acts, to live long and joyously, we must
be free from the domination of disease:

There has been wall of woe, and a
long drawn out tale Of woe" from the
boom towns of California this fall,
Just after the board to equalize the
assessment met. The wild-eyed BOOM
ers came in with melancholy faces to
the Board and with many sigh and a
tear drew out their skeletons OF busted
bOOms for exhibition to the work,
whom they asked for reduction of
the valuation. The assessors tried to
fix values at somewhere near boom fig
ures, hence those tears. The story is
a curious one. Los Angeles assess
ment is II millions less than in 1888!
Lots at Oak Knoll, sold two years ago
at 81 800, now go begging at 800. One
Of the most curious things which came
out was a document giving the history
and present condition Of sixty paper
towns in all portions Of the county.
The sixty tOwn-siteS comprised 1880
town-lOts listed by the assessor,
and at present the whole sixty
had but 2,35l inhabitants. AT
many Of the town-SiteS vast sums
Of money have been expended in build
ing hotels, churches and school-hOuses
which are now abandoned or offered
for sale at a fraction of their cost.
One hotel was mentioned which cost
$50, 900, which has since been given to
a college society. Among the towns
were Border City, having 1920 lots
plated and not a single inhabitant;
Chicago Park, 2,2S6 lots and one in
habitant-the Waterman who takes
care of the ''leading" hotel; Carlton.
1910 lots and no inhabitants Man
chester, 2,304 lots, with not a soul in
it: West Glendale, SIPS lots and no
inhabitants Sunset, 2,032 lots and
one inhabitant, he being the watch
man of an expensive hotel.
