An eminent Italian scientist, who is
an acknowledged authority on malaria
and its causes, tells us that no matter
how saturated with moisture soil may
be, 1t is not of necessity unhealthy.
The malarial nicrobc is not n produc.

perish altogether or remain dormant
until moisture puts the earth into more
favorable conditions. The favoritc and

then, are low places where there is

A Letter From Colorado.

Timothy J. Davis, well known
to old-timers as the pioneer black
smith Of Grangeville, but now of
Longmont, Colorado, writes us that
the mines In that section are BOOM
ing much as they are at Florence.
He thinks that Florence will make
a good camp, but that we have not
half the facilities for shipping and
working ore that they have in
Colorado. Longmont is the finest
part of the state, in good farm
ing belt, between Boulder and Fort
Collins and within a days ride OF
Black Hawk, Central, Ward and
several other mining camps. Mr..
Davis says he was always repub-
lican but has to. vote for free sill
yer this year. There are three
girls and one boy in his family, the
youngest past two years old.

said:

old things what you got to SELL"
This was too much temptation and
soon she had the contents of her ward
robe spread out for his inspection. Her
heart misgnvc her, though, for her hus-
bana had positively forbidden her ever

only hoped he would never find out,
and with the money she could buy such
fine new ones.
There was one gown that she did
hesitate to part with. 1t was lowered

and long sash ends of gorgeous ribbon
and Mr.. b particularly liked that
dress, because she had served afternoon
tea in it for him often during their en-
gagemcnt. However, the man offered
n good price for it and it went with the
rest.
