THE OPEN SWITCH.


Anybody who travels by cars knows what
is meant by an open switch" 1t is the
terror of railroad men, and the dread of the
traveller. Its victims-killed, horribly man.
gled or manned for life-are numbered by
the score each year.
Yet even the dreaded "open switch is not
so widely fatal as is a certain disease which,
without ceasing its activity for an instant, is
daily filling hundreds of graves.
What is that terrible ailment? you ask.
1t is Heart Diseased "But" you reply, con-
fidently, al haven't any heart disease-my
heart is all right" Are you SURE?
DR.. Franklin Miles, of Elkhart, Ind, the
distinguished specialist in diseases OF the
heart and nervous system, states that disor-
ders of the heart are as common as those OF
the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels or kidneys,
though often unsupported. The reason PEG
pie are not aware of this important fact is
because symptoms of heart disease are not
usually recognized as proceeding from this
organ, but are attributed to some other
source. If you have shortness of breath
fluttering or palpitation, pain or Tenderness:
in left breast, shoulder or side, oppressed OF
choking sensation, fainting or smotherina
spells, your heart is affected.
81 had been troubled with heart disease
for years. My left pulse was very weak, could
at times scarcely feel it, excitement woulC
weaken my nerves and heart, and fear o
impending death stared me in the face fol-
hours. Dr. Miles Nervine and New Hear
Cure are the only medicines that have proved
ofany benefit and cured mel. M. DYER

"My wife has been taking DR.. Miles Me-
Cure for the Heart. She thinks itwonderiul

The Biddle & Lang smelter, of Min
eral, has contracted with several i'm
portant mines of that camp for their
ore production during 1898. This
looks as though Mineral is to be an
active producer throughout the COM
ing summer. The B. & L.smelter is
the old standby in that camp and with
out it not a great deal would be done
over there. 1t is good news to learn
that Mineral is to remain continuous
silver producer. Huntington Herald.

that we were informed that the mines

we cannot afford to have the camp

LEMONADE WITH HOT WATER.

Il learned a new thing said a
woman, recently, while visiting an
English friend who is living in this
country. We had a small dance one
evening Of my stay, and my hostess
served the most delicious lemonade
ever drank. | spoke of it the next
day, and she told me it was made
with freshly boiled water-the secret,
she said, of thoroughly good lemon
ade 1 have regular rule, she fur
Their informed me, which insures
success il | am making quart or a
gallon. For a quart | take the
Juice of three lemons, using the rind of
one of them. | am careful to peel
the rind very thin, getting just the
yellow outside; this | cut into pieces
and put with the juice and powder
ed sugar, of which l use two ounces
to the quart, in a jug or jar with a
cover. When the water is just at
the tea point pour over the lemon
and sugar, cover at once and let it
get cold. Try this way once and
you will never make it any other
way.'"

To the Editor Il believe that can help
the sick and suffering by giving them the
benefit of my experience.
For many years have suffered from rheu-
matism complicated with neuralgia and
severe headaches, at regular intervals with
the illness peculiar to my sex at times almost
crazy with pains in my head and body.
/ have employed physicians in Denver, c hic-
ago, here and other cities who have given
me temporary relief
Some time ago began the use of DR.. David
Kennedy's faTorite remedy, and it has done
me more good than all the doctors put to-
gether. | am better now than l have been
in years and my neighbors will vouch for
the great improvement Favorite Remedy has
made in me. have recommended Favorite
Remedy to many of my friends and it has in
every case helped them.
Having found medicine that has demon
strated its power to benefit and cure in such
complicated case as my own, l feel it duty
to make it known publicly so that the many
suffering ones in this city can avail them
selves of it.

poUCED SALARIES PROBABLE.

Atthe time of the strike of the en-
o;ners on the elevated road in New
Tor, | had part in bringing the
conservatives of the engineers and
the ate Cyrus w. Field, director
in tie elevated company, to meet
;ne.hat resulted in quick under
stading between the conflicting in
tersts and an ending of the strike.
Mr. Field was so pleased with the fair
mes of the committee representing
theengineers with whom he had to
ded that he invited them at once to
die with him at Delmonico's, an in
Walton which their representa-
tvs declined for them, fearing that
its acceptance might be misunder-
stood. Mr.. Field, however, con-
tirued to feel that he wished to ex-
ted some social courtesy to the
employees of the elevated road, and
at a later date, when he was all
powerful in that corporation, he is
sued formal invitation to employees
to reception at his house. To a
large number the initials ar. S. V.

tation were a great mystery, and,
as the story goes, the invited COM

TA-RA-RA BOOM IN AFRICA.

Ta-ra.ra-boom.de-ay, according to
the latest a counts, has effected a
landing on the Dark continent, and
has been heard of at Sierre Leone, a
place known as the white man S
grave. Sung at a concert at Free
town, it appears to have electrified
the native part Of the audience, who
took up the refrain with such alarm
ing energy that the less adventurous
portion of the assembly found the
outside OF the building more desira-
bic than the inside. Within a few
days the tune had spread to the sur
rounding districts, and when the last
mail steamers left, Sierre Leone was
groaning under the tyranny which
ragged on these shores only a short
time ago.

WHY MONEY Is SCARCE.

Money is not plentiful because it is
boarded. 1t is legally right for a
man to do what he will with his
own money, but there is a moral OBJ
legation to put it to some use. In
the parable of the talents the man
who made no use of what was given
him lost what he had, and the pen
atty was rated just. And in this
day, people take satisfaction in the
recital of anecdotes Of those scared
individuals who hide their money
IN old boots and stockings only to
lose it. There is too much money
hidden, metaphorically speaking, in
boots and stockings, money that
ought to be put at interest at some
price The banks cannot supply
the business community with money
unless it is deposited with them. =
