That is why any one can prove for
himself the genuineness of Puritana
cures.
Puritana patients get we'll.
This is fact.
There are reasons for it.
Puritana is the discovery of Prof.
Dixi Crosby.
Hewasthe greatest New Hampshire
physician of his day.
He was at the head of the Dart
mouth Medical College for a genera
ton.
He used common sense, and found
that disease or health came to the
body through the stomach.
He scientifically compounded
stomach medicine from the harmless
products of nature.
This is Puritana.
1t makes the stomach right.
That is why it makes the health
right.
With sound stomach no one can
help being well
That is why Puritana patients get
well.
Chemists say that Puritana is good
medicine.
They also say It is well made.
The materials are the purest and
best that money can buy.

They have been proven before the

NOW FOR THE PIpIyC.

Mr.. Miller, the manager for Mr.. AL
len, a Denver contractor, came to Og-
den Wednesday night and yesterday
went upon the canyon in company with
Engineer Perkins to look over the
ground and prepare for the laying Of
pipe. Evidently things were found in
readiness, for but brief stay was
made at the ca mp. On their return
Mr.. Miller went at once to the office
of the Eccles Lumber company and
left an order for lumber to be sawed
in proper lengths for sills and other
framework for the pipe. When The
Herald man got around to that place
shortly after, the saws were already
humming through the lumber. cut
ting 1t into proper lengths. This will
be taken up the canyon tomorrow and
the laying of pipe will be at once COM
menced. The order left with the Ec-
cles Lumber company was for lumber
enough to lay only forty-eight feet of
pipe. The smallness of the order was
due, Mr.. Allen explained, to the fact
that this was an experiment. He wish
ed to be sure of the best kind of lum-
Der, as well as of the best method for
having it sawed. Mr.. Miller is a man
Of much experience in this kind of
work, one of the pieces of work which
he recently superintendent being the
work on the great canal in Wyoming,
near the Colorado line leading to the
great placer fields.
Work in the canyon on the longest
tunnel is going on night and day

Last Tuesday Andrew Bowman, an

found Bowman there still armed with
his Winchester. who. on the arrival of

for daylight. Early next morning the

OF his friends to impose upon him, and
that he would have saved point had
