Seat of the Thunder God.

Trembling mountain" a massive
pile of peculiarly arranged rocks lying
Oh Rogue river, almost directly north
of Montreal was known to the Indians
by combination of words signifying
''seat of the thunder god. According
to their traditions, the thunder god for
merly used broad and deep indentation
on its summit as seat, and that there
in he would sit for three days in spring,
seven in summer, five in autumn and
two in winter. They also believed that
during the time he was present great
ohasms would open in the side of the
mountain, from which fire would stream
for hours without ceasing. Nothing is
known concerning the early history of
the mountain, but it is thought that
the legend refers to old time volcanic

A TOUGH PIECE OF HUMANITY.
The Animated Old Snag Against Which
an Insurance Company Ran.

The Animated Old Snag Against Which
Insurance Company Ran.
This is the way man named Gaines
Of St Peter, Mimi, got the better of
an insurance company: Many years ago
Mr. Gaines insured his life for So, 500.
After many years of payment of 500 a
year premium, at the age of 70 years he
asked the officers of the company how
much they would pay him to cancel his
policy. They offered him So, 900. He re-
fused to take it, but made them this
proposition, eff you will give me $416
a year until death, which is S8 week,
will cancel the policy
agreed" said the company, which
thought it had cinch in its favor, as
he would not live many years.
Since that time Mr.. Gaines has lived
18 years, and the company has paid him
his yearly stipulation of $416, which up
to this time has amounted to $7,4SS.
The saving of the 800 premium in the Is
years and the interest make it the snug
sum of over SIS, 900 that the old man
gained by his bargain. Mr.. Gaines is
we'll preserved at IS and bids fair to re-
ceive many moro payments at the hands
OF the company, which struck tough
piece of human timber upon which to
base its calculations. Chicago Tribune

CGri6Gis Facts.

The medical statistics of this country
have been studied by DR.. John T. Bill
lings from the racial standpoint. He de-
duces many curious facts: The infan-
tile death rate among the blacks is very
high; the race itself is shorter lived
than the white; it is less liable than the
white to malaria, yellow fever and can
Ger, but succumbs more readily to tu
berculosis and pneumonia. Irish chill
dren survive infantile diseases, but the
adult death rate is high; tuberculosis
pneumonia and alcoholism out them
down. Germans are especially liable
to digestive disorders and cancer. Jews
have low death rate; they live long;
their diseases are diabetes, locomotor
ataxia and kindred nervous ailments. =

4 GREAT DESERT PLAIN. Yet Where Grasses and Flowers Abound. The HarcuVer Plain Of Vest
 ern Arizona.
Destitute of Water and Far from the HabitationS of
 Man.

Far away in west central Arizona lies valley the like of which may never be upon the earth. Perhaps 1t {, better should be called a plain, yet to inc north rise the Harcuyar hills, long, lofty, forbidding; to the east IS the high Bradshaw chain, the mineral storehouse of central Arizona; to the south the barren and desolate White Tank buttes. and to the west the Har- qua Halas.
 The plain referred to, known to the lonely prospector or to the traveller as the Harcuvar desert, is fully fifty miles square. Every foot of its surface seems covered with grass and in the springtime the wild flowers grow to bewildering profusion. As far as the eve can reach is the nodding stretch of purple trumpet flowers, of red, vel low and white poppies, with wild yer bena and the modest golondrina car peting the ground beneath. The grass, growing to the height of several feet, seems ever white, and when the snringtime flowers die there seems for miles and miles to be a feecy blanket of creamy hue spread over the low land that so abruptly ends at the rag ged black volcanic peaks beyond. Yet beneath this white the rains Of the summer soon bring forth a more tender growth of green herbage that in turn changes color as it rises to the height of the older growth.
 Trees there are few. Travelling across the trail from Vulture to the Harqua Halas, there is to be found an occasional Palo Verde and nearer the hills an occasional ironwood. There is not a habitation, and the travele1 westward from Wickenburg finds nc water till fifty miles have been GOV cred and Cu1lens Well is reached.
 Water there is none between. Many were the wells sunk on the road east of Cullen's Well when that road was the main thoroughfare through Ehrenburg, into Arizona. But tht railroads came, wagon transportation was abandoned and the deep dry pit remain to menace the footing of th' unwary traveller, though few now conn that way. The grasses are uncroppet by a single animal save by, now ant then, a deer or antelope, astray iron the far-off springs Of the Harcuvars For few weeks in winter and for week in summer the plain is almost morass and then again is dry.
 Yet it is within the bounds of prob ability that this peerless valley vii yet be utilized for the benefit of mar Already there is a project in which is planned to take the waters of tn Colorado from their channel near Tn Needles in a giant of canals that sha sweep far inland and, crossing @ di vide in the northwestern corner ( Maricopa county, pour a flood of tn precious fluid upon the soil that g beautifully would respond to the UT ion. When this is done then to tn Salt River valley will be given a gran and most welcome competitor and Arizona will be given a million acrf more Of wealth producing soil.

When a person is losing flesh and wasting away there is cause for alarm. Nothing so worries a physician. Consumptives would never die ii they could regain their usual weight. In fact, there would be no consumption if there were no wasting of the system. The cause of this loss of flesh IS a failure to properly digest the food eaten. Nine-tenths of all our diseases date back to some Arrangement of the stomach.
 The Shaker Digestive Cordial will stop this wasting of the body. It acts by causing the food we eat to be dl- gested so as to do good, for undlgested food does more harm than good. The Cordial contains food already digested and is a digester of foods as well.

McBurney is already overwhelmed with the thanks and hearty testlmonl- als of those who have long suffered and at last found relief MT. McBurney is well known in his home city, Los An geles, he having been engaged in the harness manufacturing business 1n that place for over ten years. lie IS no uuack, patent medicine man, but hustling, busy man of affairs who accidentally discovered this remedy and effected so many cures thereby that he felt it his duty to place it with in the reach of all. The writer knows MT. sMcBurney personally and knows his remedy is all that is claimed for it. Your ggist-backnumber, as he no doubt is-nay tell you he has some thing equally as good; but if he does, give him the h0rse-laugh, for one bot tie of McBurney's cures-and one bot tie of nothing else will.

 It is with pleasure that we call at tention to the ad Of Dr. Schultz else where in our columns. Fully two thirds of chronic nervous diseases are due to the imperfect action of tht nerve centers at the base of the brain not from a derangement primarily or iginating in the organ itself. Int great mistake of local physicians ant so-called specialists in treating thi disease is that they treat the organ rather than the nerve center, witl nostrums, which is the cause of tn trouble. Dr. c. I. Schultz, the emi nent European specialist, has pro foundly studied this subject for owe twenty years, and has made man important discoveries in connection with it, chief among them being tn facts contained in the above state ment, and that the ordinary method of treatment are wrong.
