Hero is an ancient English prophecy whlc
ia Of interest in view of the fact that Christ
mas falls this year upon Friday:
Now take heed. every man,
That English understand can,
If that Christmas day fall
Upon Friday, know well ali
That winter season shall be easy,
Save great winds aloft shall fly;
The summer also shall be dry
And right seasonable, l say,
Beasts and sheep shall thrive right we'll
But other victuals shall fail;
What child that day is born
Great snd rich he shall be of corn.

David Moffat, Evan Smith and several
we'll known mine owners have organ
lied n company to drive tunnel under
the richest portion of the porphyry gold
fields at Cripple Creek. The tunnel
will start about mile south of the
town Of Cripple Creek and will extend
1900 feet due east to the Victor mine.
The project is important for tho reason
that II the tunnel is completed 1t will
settle the vexed question Of the depth
Of Cripple Creek mines. As yet only
one or two veins have shown any signs
Of exhaustion with depth, but no mine
has been worked deeply enough to
make the permanency OF the camp q
certainty. It will cost 100000 and

count. Then came long time Of despair
for me. My lower limbs became numb and
cold aud I lost the use Of them almost en-
tirely. For u long time was unable 10
stand on my feet without support. For
four years I could not think Of doing any
kind Of work.
~ treated with many eminent doctors
without deriving any benefit. Ispent more
than slU0 In one summer for medical treat
mont which failed to help me. The local
doctors could not give me any encourage
ment, and, In fact, did not know what my
ailment was. I became tired Of doctoring,
and for year did nothing for my trouble.
considering that my case was hopeless. BY
this time the life was gone out OF my legs,
and could not bend them ut oil, the cords
being hard as bone. Tho cold occasioned
