SERVED In TWO WARS.
The Grip Almost Won Where the
Bullet Failed.
Our Sympathies Always Enlisted in the
Inflrmities of the Veteran.
(Fron, Ms Herald, Uoodstock, Va,


There is an old soldier in Woodstock. We.
who served in the war with Mexico aud in
the war of the rebellion, Mr. Levi McInturff
lie passed through both these wars with.
out a serious wound. The hardships, how
ever, told seriously on him, for when the
grip ATTACKED him four years ago it nearly
Killed him. Who can look on the infirmi.
tles OF veteran without o feeling of the
deepest sympathys His townspeople saw
him confined to his house so Frustrated
with great nervousness that nc could not
hold knife and fork at the table, scarcely
able to walk too, and as he attempted it, he
often stumbled and fell They saw him
treated by the best talcntto be had-but still
he suffered on for four years, and gave up
finally in despair One day, however, he
was struck by the account of a cure which
had been effected by the use of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. He Immediately ordered a
box and commenced taking them. He
says he was greatly relieved within three
days time. The blood found its way to his
fingers and his hands which had been pal
sled assumed anatural color, and he was soon
enabled to use his knife and fork at the
table He has recovered his strength to
such an extent that he is able to chop wood,
shock corn aud do his regular work about
his home. He now says he can not only
walk to Woodstock, but can walk across the
mountains. He is able TO lift up u fifty-two
pound weight with one hand and says he
does not know what DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have done for others, but knows that
they have done great work for him.
He was in town last Monday, court day.
and was loud in his praises of the medicine
that had given him so great relief. He pur-
chased another box and took it home with
him. Mr.. Mclnturff is willing TO make
affidavit to these facts.
The proprietors of DR.. Williams PinkPills
state that they are not patent medicine but
prescription used for many years by an en-
tnent practitioner who produced the most
wonderful results with them, curing all
forms of weakness arising from watery
condition of the blood or shattered nerves,
two fruitful causes of almost every i'll to
which flesh is heir. The pills are also a
specific for the troubles peculiar to females,
such as suppressions, all forms of weak
ness, chronic constipation, bearing down
pains, etc, and in the case of men will give
speedy relief and effect permanent cure in
I'LL cases arising from mental worry, over
work, or excuses of whatever nature They
are entirely harmless and can be given TO
weak and siclSly children with the greatest
good and without the slightest danger. Pink
Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent
post paid on receipt of price, go cents box,
or six boxes for S250-they are never sold

 The foregoing statements are not exaggerated; in fact, they fall short of doing justice to this derful land. Pineappes, dates, almonds and wal nuts will do well. Strawberries, raspberries, black berries. currants gooseberries, and all varieties of small fruits can be successfully cultivated Indeed, Yuma County is not only the natural home of the citrus and semi-tropcal fruits, as almost every fruit, nut, plant, grain, grass or vegetable which be produced in either tropic or temperate zone will thrive in it's rich and fertile soils.

 Because churches, schools, newspapers and railroads are fast developing the .[moral and material clements of the Territory.
 Because good land is becoming scarce, and if you don't catch on now, your last chance will soon be gone.
 Because the country is one of the few regions of the United States that yields the products of the temperate and semi-tropic zones.
 Because the worker receives Q fair com- pensation for his labor, and the 'rustler' has a field for the display of his energy and en- terprise.
 Because there are neither blizzards or tornadoes, earthquakes nor inundations, snow-storms nor cyclones
 Because the vast and varied resources of the country are yet to be developed.
 Because the wealth of it's mines, its farm ing valleys, and grazing lands, will yet build up great and prosperous county.

 Because fortunes here await the venture some, and health welcomes the afflicted.
 Because the country has brilliant future and you want to be in the ''swim. 3
 Because in its pure, dry invigorating air. epidemic diseases cannot live or germinate
 Because it's people are generous, liberal, hospitable and progressive.

Arizona stands at the threshold of ar era of wonderful social and industrial de velopment. There can't be a doubt about the fad. The dawn for which she has waited so long is breaking at last There is every promise of a day of great pros. perity and permanent upbuilding just be- fore her. The impulse of new and ener. gizing hope is visible everywhere among her people, while the cumulative effect of many things, which made but small i'm pression as they transpired singly, is now commanding for her full share of atten- tion and interest abroad among home seekers and capitalists
 4 lively competition has sprung up for the possession of things which have hereto fore gone a-begging for ownership. There is scramble for franchises. Nothing more surely indicates great industrial awaken ing than this. The rates of interest are falling to moderate figures. Nothing more surely indicates confidence and competition among the money lenders than this.
 Arizona has reached that climacticer period which every western state has ex- perienced sometime in its history when, after long and weary struggle and doubt, with each side of the balance first up and then down, the clouds of despondency have suddenly rolled away, and sunburst of energizing hope has thrilled the droop- ing spirits of the people to greater and braver endeavor than before.
 For the last twelve years the subsistence of the great Tombstone boom and the com pletion of two transcontinental lines of railroad across her territory-Arizona has rather dropped out of public attention, but in that time she has been quietly ac- cumulating a fund of substantial wealth and a force of moral character which qualify her now to rise up and take her destiny in her own hands.
 The population of Arizona is Mexican. This is mistake of great importance from the moral point of view. There is but one considerable center of Mexican population in the territory, the city of Tucson, and even there it is not by any means at pres ent the predominating element. It think it is certain that Arizona has not to-day nearly so large a Mexican population as Colorado and not above One-tenth as much as New Mexico. -,"Fitz- Mac" in Denver News.
