Catarrh, not Local, but Constlt,
 tioual,

Catarrh, not Local, bur Constltu
 tiopai.
 Dr. bio Lewis, the eminent Boston phyician, in magazine article says, "A radical error underlies nearly all medical treatment for catarrh. It is not a disease of the mans nose; it is a dis ease of the man. showing itself in the in the mans nose--a local exhibition of 8 constitutional trouble" Therefore, he argues the use of snuff and other local applications is wrong, and while they seem to give temporary relief, they really do more harm than good. Other leading authorities agree with Dr. Lewis. Hence, the only proper method of cure of catarrh is by taking a constitutional remedy like Hoods sarsaparilla, which, reaching every part of the body through the blood, does eliminate all impurities and makes the whole man healthier. It resmoves the cause of the trouble and restores the diseased membrane to proper con- dition. That this is the practical result is proven by thousands of people who have been cured of catarrh by taking Hoods sarsaparilla.

A Bumptuous Inspector.

Geo. H. Waterbury, postoffice in- spector, has been circulating through the two territories stirring up some postmasters and postal clerks. While in Arizona he succeeded in having. ar rested postal clerk for getting away with a registered package and post master for not sending the government cash to the depository with sufficient promptness. These successes were too much for the feeble mind of the inspec- tor, and he came 10 the conclusion that the entire postal department of this section of country rested on his shoul- ders. He passed through Lordsburg with that idea strong in his mind. While here he noticed letter being mailed on the train, and threatenedsto have the mailer arrested if he ever did so again. It happened that the person threatened knew his rights in this world "hN 'hO lhSpSNlpl uOI Sos He went up into Bernalillo county and there found a postmaster who had handled registered letter from which it was claimed some sixty dollars had been stolen. He ran blazer on this poor postmaster, arrested Linn and took him to Albuquerque. He had no war rant, and even with one he had DO more right to arrest him than any pii- vate citizen would. When the arrested postmaster got to Albuquerque he con- suited lawyer, who got after Inspect tor Waterbury suddenly, and it is said instructed him on some important points in the postal laws..-Lordsburg Liberal.

PATENTS. Notice to Inventors.

There was never a time in theIhistory of our country when the demand for inventions and Improvements in the arts and sciences gener- ally was so great as now, The conveniences of mankind in the factory and workshop the household, on the farm, and in official life. require continual accessious to tho appurte- nances and implements of each In order to save labor, time and expense. The political change in the administration of government does not affect the progress of the American inventor, who, being on the alert. and ready to perceive the existing deficiencies, does not permit the affairs of government to deter him from quickly conceiving the remedy to over come existing discrepancies Too great caro cannot be exercised in choosing competent and skillful attorney to prepare and prose- cute an application for patent. Valuable in- terests have been lost and destroyed in innu- merable instances by the employment of in- competent counsel, and especially is this ad- vice applicable to those who adopt the "No patent, no pay" system. Inventors who en- trust their business to this class of attorneys do so at imminent risk, as tho breadth and strength of the patent is never considered in view of quick endeavor to get an allowance and obtain the fee then due.

THE LITTLE COLORADO CANYON
The Varied Wonders of that Section. Rich in Coal and Mineral.

Mcssrs. J. H. Mcclure, J. II. Mar shall and Al. Doyle returned last week from trip to the canyon of the Little Colorado river. They were absent about two weeks and the object of their trip was to get lot of samples from a mine which was located some five years ago. The samples brought iu are said to contain large percentage of phos- phate and ammonia, and the rock is worth $90 per ton delivered in Phila- delphia. There is large deposit. and it is easily mined, as it requires little blasting, the cost of getting the rock 10 the railroad being the chief expense. The Little Colorado river is dry or nearly so, at this time of the year, but at this point, about twenty miles above it's confluence with the Colorado river. a large spring comes into the river from the west bank. The spring comes in through the solid limestone rock 5000 feet below the plateau, and can only be reached by long, tedious climb down rough trail.
 The stream of water is more like river than anything elso, and is divided by rocks in two parts. One portion seems to. rise from the bottom of the formation and Is five feet across. The water as it comes up is thrown to the height of four or five feet. The other portion is considerably larger and flows directly into the river. Where this water comes from is mys- tery, and being 80 far underground, Its source cannot be traced.
 The water is clear and pleasant to the taste, and has medical properties. as in its use 1t acts directly on the kid neys, producing general relief to dis eases of that organ, and the spring may Do in the future great health resort.
 The Little Colorado river is ap- preached at this point. like the Grand Canyon of the Colorado, on a compar- atively level plateau. The walls of the Little Colorado canyon are nearly per pendicular and from the rim of the plateau te the river it is 5000 feet, and the view from the top as you gaze into the depth nearly takes your breath away, and at no distant day this cam yon will attract as many visitors as does now the Grand Canyon.
 There is mineral found all over the plateau, but the value and kind is not known, as no prospecting has been done.
 In the bottom of the river, 5000 feet down, are valuable beds of an thra- cite coal, the vein being 20 feet thick, and it extends up and down the river on both sides for miles.
 This section of Coconino county, now so littlo known or thought of, will some day be one of it's most prosperous and attractive sections.

Notable Famlnes ln History.

Famines were formerly much more com.
mon than during the last half century. and
many notable calamities Of this nature are
mentioned By historians. Not including
the seven years famine In Egypt men.
toned in the Old Testament. the first great
famine noted in history was in Italy, B c.
43G. Thousands or persons, driven mad By
want, threw themselves into the sea and
rivers to escape from further suffering. In
A. d. 42 there was great famine in Egypt,
and another in Rome and the vicinity in
A. D. 962. In s72 famine prevailed in the
British islands, and people ate grass, roots
and the bark Of trees: thousands died in
