The Future OF Bodie.

We venture to prophesy that within
the next two years there will be more
men employed IN Bodie Mining Dis.
tElct than any one year for the past
five years. This district has valuable
mining property awaiting develop
ment and our greatest mining boom
Is yet to come. Those located in bus
mess here are very fortunate and have
a chance yet to make snug fortunes
in this played ont" camp. Just wait
till we get more electric power and
Bodie will begin to remind you again
OF the palmy days.-Miner.

Purified BY Fire.

There is no more effecti We sanitary
agent than fire. The ancient who
made his napkin of asbestos had
but to throw it into the fire when
soiled. and it could be made cleaner.
And il we could but build our houses
OF incombustible materials the spring
cleaning might be efficiently &C.
complished by incendiarism. London,
indeed, was purified from a plague by
general conflagration. And almost
the one thing, which that indestruct.
able disease germ, the bacillus, can.
not stand is heat.

Shrinkage in Beef Cattle.

A Nevada stockman who has been
experimenting and taking notes says
beef cattle driven twenty five miles
without water will sh rink five pounds
per bullock, allowing feed and drink
at the end ofthe journey before weigh.
ing: A bullock driven five miles and
allowed to stand two hours without
feed OF water will not shrink any. A
bullock driven fifty miles and allowed
to drink frequently during the drive
will shrink twenty pounds. A bullock
driven twenty-five mites md al.oy ID
to drink frequently during the drive
will not show shrinkage. IL allowed to
eat and drink for three hours mt the
end Of he drive. A bunch Of 600
pound bullocks driven fifty miles with
care and allowed to drink frequently
on the drive. and at the end allowed
to eat and drink for six hours, showed
fifteen pounds shrinkage to the ami.
NAL. This, however, was the result
OF careful handling.
The foregoing figures were obtained

Scratched out the Clause.

1t ID related OF a well. known
Maryland merchant that. after max
ing his will and leaving a large
property to a trustee for his son, he
called the young man in, and. after
reading the will to him, asked if there
was any improvement or alter alton he
could suggest. @Well father" said
the young gentleman, lighting
cigarette. Il think as things go nova
days, it would be better for me if you
left the property to the other fellow
and made me trustee" The old
gentleman made up his mind then
and there that the young man was
quite competent to take charge Of
his own inheritance and scratched
out the trustee clause.

To Make Death Certain

In Germany the view obtains that
the execution of criminals should be
by some means more certain than the
electric chair. Er. G. Cuhmann, a
celebrated chemist, suggests the use
OF carbolic acid. According to his
plan. the criminal would be carried to
a cell which can be filed noiselessly
with carboic acid in gaseous form
from floor to ceiling. When the gas
reaches the deinquent's mouth and
nose it causes instant paralysis of the
lungs and unconsciousness, and life
departs without previous pain.

How The PubIiC
 Is Imposed Upon.
BEWARE OF FRAUDS.
For The Sake of Profit They Will Sacrifice Principle, Health, Etc.

Interruptions dealers are try ing to sell ordinary Glauber Salt or mixture of Seidlitz Powder as Artificial Carlsbad Salt" "Sprudel Salt" German Salt" and under other similar names. The natural remedies of Carls- bad cannot be initiated.
 Artificially made wines will never replace the natural juice of the grapes. Neither can the natural waters of Carlsbad, nor the Carlsbad Sprudel Salt be re- placed by the cheap substitutes offered to guileless public for the sake of the larger profit made thereon, by these unscru- pulous dealers.
 No one would buy artificial wines knowingly. Why buy the limitations of the Carlsbad prod ucts, when your health is at stake /?
 The Carlsbad Sprudel Waters are a specific for all diseases of the stomach, liver and kidneys, and have been used with great benefit by hundreds of thou sands of people. The Carlsbad Sprudel Salt, which is evaporated from the Sprnde1 Water at Carls- bad, is an excellent Aperient, Laxative and Diuretic is an al- terative and eliminative remedy, which dissolves tenacious bile, allays irritation, and removes obstruction by aiding nature, and not by sudden and excessive ir- ritation, as most cathartics do.
