house breaking The Judge, whose name
is Caldwell, proposed to the mothers of
the youthful offenders that if they
would give the boys first-class whip
ping in court he would not send them
to the penitentiary. The colored ladies
eagerly accepted the proposition and
promised that there would be a whip
ping in town that would 60 down in
history. They kept their word, his hon
or being compelled in several instances
to interfere in behalf of the culprits.
The boys will probably bear the marks
of the castigation to their dying day,
but they may thus be saved the more
ignominious brand of the penitentiary.
The incident conveys suggestion for
the checking of crime among the boys
that need not be lightly disregarded.-

Australians Size.

The size of Australia is not generally
appreciated. The seven colonies be-
tween them occupy territory greater
than that of the United States, includ-
ing Alaska. New South Wales, alone
is as large as the thirteen original states.
Tasmania, the Rhode Island of Au-
stralia, is as large as that state, with
New Jersey, New Hampshire and Mas
sachusetts added; Victoria, the smallest
colony of the continent, is equal in size
to Great Britain. Queensland surpaS-
ses the united areas of Austria, France
and Germany. South Australia, one
third greater than Queensland, is nearly
as large as Western Australia. which of
itself has nearly four times the extent
of Texas, while the two colonies to-
gether are larger than the whole of
Europe without Russia. The total pop
ulatiOn is about four milliOn.-EI.

MONTH,

There is no other locality, even the
boosted climate of southern France, that
can show such stable and euuable
range of heat and cold. The health seek
er need fear no sudden changes. A little
attention to clothing and he can bid colds
and infammations defiance. In cases of
death from tubercular disease the New
Mexico rate is only in 1000.
This is the lowest known record, and it
must be remembered that the local con-
tingent of consumptives is daily aug
mented by the immigration of those who
seek respite from that dreaded scourge.
The record of deaths at Santa Te is
much lower than the territorial average.
In New England the consumptive death
rate is rs out of every 1000 Of the COM
munity; in Minnesota it is II, and
throughout the southern states six per
1000. This city enjoys the spring eli
mate of northern Illinois and Indiana;
the summer climate of Wisconsin, Michi-
gan and Minnesota, and the winter
tenn perature of southern Illinois, Indiana
and Tennessee. This, however, is only as
shown by the thermometer. The dry
tonic air of the mountain altitude fills one
with vivacity and health, and so strong is
the influence of the ozone and electricity
on the nerves ndsystem that acclimation
is wonderfully rapid. This of itself is
great boon. Cases are ON record of in

grants here of from four to seven inches.
NATURAL ATTRACTIONS.
Besides this Santa Fe lies in most
picturesque valley. It is at the entrance
of a splendid canon, Astounding in natural
curiosities. 1t is also the gateway of the
Pecos National park, where fish and game
abound. Within easy riding or driving
distances there are over forty places of pic
turesque and OF historic interest. Among
which may be mentioned the old adobe pal
ace, first erected shortly after 1905, from
which the Spanish viceroys ruled this
great province. The present structure
dates from about 17l6; but it is full of
interest, as every room is consecrated by
the memory of thrilling events. In this
building Gen. Lew Wallace wrote his
famous Ben Hur.
The chapel of San Miguel, was built in
1880 and still stands. By its side is the
oldest house In the United States. The
walls ofthe old cathedral date from 1922,
but the rest of the structure IL of more
modern date. Within convenient dis
tances are the Indian pueblos of Tesuque
and Nambe; in side canon Of the Santa
Fe are the delightful Aztec springs, while
about nine miles up the main water
course is Monument rock. The road
thither is one of surprising loveliness.
TO the south of town is Aqua Fria, and
the famous turquoise mines pronounced
by Tiffany the finest in the world; and
beyond the Rio Grande are the San Ilde-
fonso Pueblo and the curious cliff dwell
tings.
Other points of interest to the tourists
are: The Historical society's rooms; the
"Garita," the military quarters, chapel
and cemetery of Our Lady Of the Rosary;

FAIR SAILING

through life for the person who
keeps in health. With torpid liver
and the impure blood that follows it,
you are an easy prey to all sorts of
ailments. That used-up" feeling
is the first warning that your liver
isn't doing its work.
That is the time to take Doctor
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
As an appetizing, restorative tonic,
to repel disease and build up the
needed flesh and strength, there's
nothing to equal it. 1t rouses every
organ into healthful action, purifes
and enriches the blood, braces up
the whole system, and restores health
and vigor.
For every disease caused by a dis
ordered liver or impure blood, it is
the only guaranteed remedy. If it
doesn't benefit or cure, in every case,
you have your money back.
No other medicine of its kind
says as much-but no other does as
much. 1t cleanses and invigorates
the entire system. For all skin,
scalp and scrofulous affections, as
Eczema, letter, Salt-rheum, White
Swellings, Hip-joint Disease, and
kindred ailments, it's positive cure.

Sorrow In the Near Future

Awaits those who disregard symptoms of
liver disorder. Be on time if you feel
distressed in the region of the liver, if
your visage is sallow, eyeballs yellowish,
tongue coated, or if you are troubled
with constipation, sick headache and &C.
casional dizziness. Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters will Danish these unpleasant
symptoms, and should be used early and
persistently. The bowels are relaxed
without pain or gripping, and are not
weakened by it as they are by the action
of violent purgative. Digestion grows
more active when it is used and the sys-
tenn invigorated because it assures assimi-
lation of the food constituents by the
blood. Kidney complaints, malaria and
rheumatism are overcome by this search
ing and thorough remedy.

Santa Fe, the city of the Holy Faith of
st. Francis, is situated on the site of an
ancient Indian Pueblo called O-ga-p-ho-ge.
1t is probably the Oldest civilized COM
lnunity in the United States and the most
ancient of American capitals. The Spanish
town was founded in 1905. Authorities
disagree as to whether this city or San Au-
gustin, Fla, were first founded. Santa
Fe was first visited by American traders
in 1904, and from that time dated O
wonderful era of prosperity. The thrill
ing incidents of the old Santa Fe trail,
starting from Westport, Mo-, gave it a
world wide fame.
THE WORLDS ONLY sAN1TAR1UM.
Prof. Mark Harrington, chief of the U.
s. weather bureau, says: "santa Fe is in
the driest habitable part of the United
States. This region is extensive, and
changes in form from season to season,
but Santa Fe is always in it,"
1t is situated in charming nook of the
Santa Fe range, and its climate is domi-
mated by the influence of mountain peaks
that tower nearly $4,000 feet high. To-
gether with this it lies at an altitude of
7,Ol5 feet, and latitude, about the seth
degree north, that gives it peculiar ad-
vantage as sanitarium. The elevation
tempers the summer heats, which natural
~ should be about that of Mem phis,
Tenn, or Bakersfield, Cal, and its south
ern situation reduces the rigors of winter.
AS an illustration, during the winter of
1892, the daily public concerts in the
plaza were only stopped three times by
weather, and last winter the omissions did
not exceed half dozen.
The altitude compels the lungs to work,
and no one in Santa Fe can be accused of
being "too lazy to BREATHE" as a great
physician expressed it, The rare, ozon-
ated air permeates every cell of the lungs,
and thus prevents hemorrhage. Drs.
Symington and Harroun, who have prac-
ticed in Santa Fe for over twenty years,
report that they have only found two
'ases among the native people of con-
sumption.

The Best in the World.


Senator Henry G. Nelson, of New York,
writes:
ION the 9th of February, 1893, was
taken with violent pain in the region
of my kidneys. I Suffered such agony
that I could hardly stand up. AS soon as
possible I applied two Allcock's Porous
Plasters, one over each kidney, and laid
down. In an hour to my surprise and de-
light, the pain had vanished and was
we'll. Iwore the plasters for day or
two as precau.ion, and then removed
them. have been using Allcock's Por-
GUS Plasters in my family for the last ten
years, and have found them the quickest
and best remedy for colds, strains and
rheumatic affections. From my expert
ence believe they are the best plasters

Perhaps some of our readers would
like to know in what respect Chamber
lains Cough Remedy is better than any
other. We will tell you. When this
Remedy is taken as soon as a cold has
been contracted, and before it has be-
come settled in the system, it will coun-
teract the effect of the cold and greatly
lessen it's severity, if not effectually cure
the cold in two days time, and it is the
only remedy that will do this. 1t acts in
perfect harmony with nature and aids ma
ture in relieving this lungs, opening the
secretions, liquefying the mucus and
causing its expulsion from the air cells
of the lungs and restoring the system to
strong and healty condition. No other
remedy in the market possesses these re-
markable properties. No other will cure
a cold SO quickly or leave the system in
as sound a condition. For sale by A. G.
