Ayers Cherry Pectoral is known by
it's works. The experience of half
century proves that no other prepara-
ton of the kind stops coughing and
allays irretation of the throat and
bronchial tubes 80 promptly and effect
ually as this.
St. Peter Tribune: The farmers in
the central part of LeSueur county
are endowed with spirit of lberality
and seem to cherish their county seat
above all els. This spirit is made
the more manifest when they sell and
deliver Eastwood to the county for 80
cents per cord, and best dry, straight
bodied maple for So. To private in
dividuals they charge nearly double
the prices quoted.
A sensational phenomenon occurred
about 9 o'clock last Wednesday night.
A meteor went whizzing through the
air from north to south. 1t made
roaring noise on its passage, and when
it reached it's nearest point to this city
there was an explosion, as from can
non. A long, fiery cloud remained
for some time as the path of the me-
teor. Quite number of Redwoodites,
indoors at the time, were called out
side by the noise, and witnessed the
spectacle, or as much as could be seen
at the time.
About fifty or more people braved
the intense cold of last Monday ev-
ening, to listen to DIR. Stafford's lec
ture on "The Queen of the Adriatic." ;"
Every one knows that it is difficult
matter to bring up the scenes and in
cidents of journey in any account of
it afterward, in such way that the
listener. may share in the original SEN
sations of the traveller. DR.. Stafford
succeeded fairly we'll in doing this.
The lecture covered the ocean voyage
from New York to Glasgow, from
thence to Paris via London and
Dieppe, and from Paris by rail to
Lucerne, whence the party journeyed
over the Alps part way on foot, partly
| by rail and diligence to Venice. The
doctor interjected enough Of humor
into his talk to elicit frequent laugh
ter and applause, and there were no
signs of WEAKNESS in the audience
when he closed.
E. D. Cooper writes second letter
, to the GAZETTE cenfrmatory of what
: has already been published from his
pen regarding Mountain Home, Idaho,
Mr.. Cooper says he has received nu-
merous letters asking whether his
, statements we're true,and remarks that
he is not writing anything but the
) truth. He says that Idaho has one OF
, the best climates in the world for un-
healthy people, especially those hav-
) ing lung trouble of any kind. Up to
date the thermometer has not touched
, the zero mark there and no rain has
' fellen. He says that there is no stone
mason in the town, and that such a
) man can earn So per day. Thirteen
! houses are in course of construction,
and more to follow. Coal on track can
5 be purchased at six dollars. and de-
livered at 1915. Potatoes, first-class,
better than Minnesota ever raised. Mr..
: Cooper thinks, are worth a cent a
pound, -four is worth 1915 per barrel,
) onions two cents pound. A house
rents from $40 to SIS per month.
Board by week is &. Town lots can
be bought from $40 to $3.50 each.
Lumber is worth about the same as in
this city only the lumber and shingles
there are better. A ticket from Red
! wood to Mountain Home costs $50.
