A ChiidleSs Home.

Smith and his wife have every luxury that money can buy, but there one thing lacking to their happiness. Both are fond of children, but no little voices prattle, no little ft ct batter in their beau tiful home. 'I would give ten years of my life if could have one healthy, liv- ing child of my own," Smitii often says to himself No woman can be the moth CT of healthy offspring unless she is her self in good health. If she suffers from female weakness, general debility, bear ing-down pains, and functional derange- ments, her physical condition is such that she cannot hope to have healthy children. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription is sovereign and guaranteed remedy for all these ailments. See guar antee printed on bottle-wrapper.

We are gratiiied to announce that the good people of Woodruff will have their dam rebuilt in time to save their crops this year, and that it is being built in a much more substantial manner than any heretofore constructed. They are taking the additional precaution of construct ing an escape for surplus water during freshets, winch will relieve, in a great measure, the pressure on the dam on such occasions. We trust that the last dam has gone which these energetic peo- pie have built, and that from this time on they may be blessed with plenty of water, abundant crops and general pros perity.

We clip the following from the Gallup (N. M.) Elk. MT. Lambson and his family resided in St. Johns and vicinity for number of years, and their many friends and aequaintances will no doubt be glad to hear from them. The Elk says: Mir. O. B. Lambson, who has a large family, has been at Grants for the past seven months. Mrs. Lambson is doing rushing business in alleviating the sufferers of that dreaded disease, diptheria. She has recipe for com pounding medicine that cures diptheria in nine cases out of ten. She has been offered large price for her recipe, but no amount of money will buy it. MT. Lambson is thinking of coming here to live. We hope he does for his estima- ble daughters will be quite an addition
 to the Four Hundred of the Carbon City.

Protect YOur Health.

Cold and moisture combined have a torporising effect upon the bodily organs and the digestive and secretive process es are apt to be more tardilv performed in winter than in the fall The same is true, also, of the excretory functions. The bowels are often sluggish, and the pores of the skin throw off but little waste matter at this season. The sys- tenn, therefore, requires opening up a little, and also purifying and regulating, and the safest, surest and most thor ough tonic and alterative that can be used for these purposes is Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Persons who wish to escape the rheumatic twinges, the dys- peptic agonies, the painful disturbances of the bowels, the bilious attacks, and the nervous visitations, so common at this time of the year, will do we'll to re- inforce their systems with this renown- ed vegetable stomachic and invigorant. It improves the appetite, strengthens the stomach, cheers the spirits, and rem ovates the whole physique.
