out of bed if his breakfast doesn't taste
good if he feels utterly incapable of work
It is pretty sure sign that his digestion is
out of order that his principal trouble Is
constipation. If he lets this condition run
on, there is no telling where it will stop.
Nine teliths of all human sickness comes
from constipation. The first thing that
every doctor asks when he is called to see
patient is whether the bowels are in good
order. 1t is nonsense to call a doctor for
such simple thing. 1t Is nonsense to let
such simple thing grow into such serious
thing, as 1t always does if neglected. DR..
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation.
They not only afford immediate and pleas
ant relief from all the distressing svmp.
toms, but they cure permanently and posi-
lively There are 10, 900 medicines that can
be taken, to give temporary relief The
"Pleasant Pellets" are the only things that
really cure.
There are plenty of druggists who will
try to sell you something else. You know
lust as well as we do that an honest
druggist wouldn't do such a thing -
that an honest druggist would give you
what you ask for. You know that when
druggist insists on giving you something
else, there must be a reason for it. We
know what that reason is-he makes big
ger profit on the other thing. Any drug
gist in America will supply the Pellets
If you insist on it.

Floral Feast,

The fourth evening of the feast of the
the previous evenings, and the most en-
joyed by all. The excellent program pre-
pared served to draw a larger crowd than
ever before, and the ladies who rave the
affair in hand are heartily delighted with
the success with which they are meeting.
Fathers De Fouri and Olier, serve to i'm
part dignity and life in the lower hall,
where the young people can meet them
and talk of things more than f~rivoity. OF
course the dear girls were as charming as
ever and succeeded in inducing the gen
tlemen, both young and old, to spend all
the money they had in their pockets.
The Juvenile band was splendid, and
proved that Prof. Cave is a fine instructor.
The musical program was commenced
promptly at $50, and surpassed all tbs
has been put on SO far. First was the
overture by the mandolin club, which
demonstrated that in this class of music,
Las Vegas is far in the lead OF all New
Mexico towns. Following was a song by
little Miss Douglass, which was we'll re-
Sctvou3 duu ohoWou buht tui5 ltttlc MISS
gives promise OF a sweet vocalist in the
future. Third was another selection from
the mandolin club. Miss Cora Pettijohu
then gave one Of her delightful whisrling
selections. Following was a third selection
by the mandolin club.
The sleight-of-hand performances by
the juggler were very good and the artist
succeeded 10 holding the attention OF the
audience for some time. This closed tho
concert. and from the way that the young
folk cleared the chairs from the room,
proved that the best part of the evening
was yet to come for them iu the way of
the dance, which was kept up till the wee
sma hours. OF course the ice cream and
other stands did a thriving business, for
who ever heard of there being q dish of
the delightful Ice being left at a church

THAT Duty ON WOOL.
Another Report About as Accurate as the Late
Discovery Of the Fountain Bodies.

A report that created considerable OK
element was on the streets, last evening,
but coming as 1t did, through an un-
source, 1t was not given serious
consideration. 1t was to the effect that a
bill had passed the senate, placing a duty
OF ten cents err pound upon wool. The
article which caused the commotion, last
evening, and the disgust, this morning,
was headed High duty on wool. Hurrah
for New MexicoI Ten cents per pound on
wool! Amendment passed senate, this
afternoon, by a vote OF S2 to II! Now
give us free silver aud we'll be all right"
The dispatch came as follows, and should
have been given to the public as 1t came;
The senate defeated the amendment, by
Stewart, to the filled cheese bill, fixing the
duty at ten cents per pound on wool. The
vote was 80 to II.
The inexcusable blunder cause1 some of
the wool men in this city to expend con-
siderable money in telsgraphing for the
truth, but tie people in Las Vegas have
about learned that WHEN You SEE IT IN
THE OPTIC, 1T is so.
