Small Beginnings

Make great endings sometimes.
 Ailments that we are apt to consider trivial often grow, through neglect, into atrocious maladies, dangerous in themselves and productive of
 others. It is the disregard of the
 earlier indications of i'll health
 which leads to the establishment of all sorts of maladies on a chronic
 basis. Moreover, there are certain disorders incident to the season, such as malaria and rheumatism, against which it is always desirable
 to fortify the system after exposure to the conditions which produce them. Cold damp and miasma are surely counteracted by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. After you have incurred risk from these influences, a wineglassful or two of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters directly afterward should be swallowed. For malaria, dyspepsia, liver complaint, kidney and bladder trouble, nervousness and debility it is the most deserv- edly popular of remedies and pre- ventives. A wineglassful before meals promotes appetite.

Died of His Injuries.

Tom Collins, one of the oldest employees of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company, was struck by the incoming passeng train from the west Monday evening and five hours later died from his injuries
 MT. Collins was one of the car penters who first helped to con- struct the bridge over the Colorado river at this place. About five years ago, owing to poor health and old age he was compelled to resigned from the carpenter gang and accept the position of bridge tender which position he filled when he met with the ac- cident which caused his death.
 Monday evening a few minutes before the arrival of the passenger, as was his custom, he crossed over the bridges on his car, preparatory to following the train in. At the west end of the laguna bridge is small platform for the use of the car of the bridge tender. The engineer on approaching saw MT. Collins walking up and down this plat form but paid no attention, know ing him. When only a few rods away from the train Mir. Collins turned about, and as he did so he he failed to keep clearance dis tance of the train. The engineer saw the fatal turn and blew the whistle, bat too late, as at that instant the flag holder, which en- tends a few inchers over the pilot, struck him just above the right hip and hurled him off the plat form down the steep embankment onto large pile of rocks. He was picked up in an unconscious con- dition and carried to the little house on this side of the Colorado river which is used by the bridge tenders, and given medical treat ment.
 He was over sixty years of age and leaves no knowing relatives.
 His remains were placed early the next morning in a casket and the section men took them on the handcar and buried them. Owing to the earlIness of the hour and the suddenness of his taken off our citizens were not aware of his death until he had been buried and as a result no burial services were read at the grave; not a railroad man or citizens followed them to the grave.

Last Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock, Augustus Neeman died suddenly. His death was not un- expected as he had been drinking heavily for some time.
 His home was in St. Louis Mo-, and he arrived here early last winter. 4 brother and sister sur vive him in the above city and are well-to do.
 He frequently sad he was the "bIack sheep of the family,' and judging from his actions since his arrival here he told the truth. During his residence here he had received moneyregularlyfrom home. A few weeks prior to his death he had sold an interest in some prop erty in St. Louis and had received several hundred dollars when he died, but had succeeded in "blow- ing it all in"
 He had often expressed the wish that in case of death he wanted to be sent back to St. Louis and buried along side of his parents.
 If he had lived he would have received several hundred dollars in few days as the final amount due him for the interest disposed of in St. Louis by him and which we have already made mention of Several of our citizens knowing this and his wishes in case of death had the body kept on ice pending the wishes of his relatives. In an- swer to @ dispatch sent by Samuel Purdy, a brother of the deceased answered that $75 as expenses for embalming and shipping would be allowed and no more. On receipt of this telegram the body was buried here at the expenses of the county.

Home and Abroad.

Itis the duty ofeveryone, whether at home or travelling for pleasure or business, to equip himself with the remedy which will keep up strength and prevent illness. and cure such ills as are liable to come upon all in everyday life. For instance, Hoods Sarsaparilla as a general tonic, and to keep the blood pure and less liable to absorb the germs ofdisease, will be we'll nigh invaluable. Change of drinking water often causes serious trouble, especially if one has been used to spring water in the country. From a few drops to teaspoonful of Hoods Sarsa- parilla in a tumbler of water will prevent the water having any in furious effect.
 Hoods Vegetable Pills, as a cathartic, cause no discomfort, no loss of sleep, but assist the digestive organs, so that satisfactory results are effected in a natural and regular manner.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness, and that is by con stitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an infamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eusta- chian Tube. When this tube gets infamed you have @ rumbIing sound or imperfect hearing, and when 1t is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflam- -raatinn- -nnla- -ho 4Al,~->- --.-A .l-.~ tube restored to its normal con- dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is noth- ing but an inHamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
