Your Physical Condition

Needs attention at this time. If you
 are tired, weak and nervous, it is
 clear that your blood is impure, and
 without doubt there has been too much over-work or strain on brain and body. The course of treatment for such a condition is plain and simple. The blood must first be puri- fled so that the nervous system, and in fact all the organs will be fed upon pure blood. Intelligent people with out number have testified that the best blood purifier, nerve tonic and strength imparting medicine is Hoods Sarsaparilla. Nervousness. loss of sleep and general debility all vanish when Hoods Sarsaparilla is consistently taken; in a word. health and happiness follow after takip g Hoods Sarsaparilla.

AdulteratiOn Of Tea.

Apropos of the present agitation started by the Japanese against their own cheap tea, we find the following g statement made by James R. Davies, ex tea-inspector for the port of New York:
 Making tea green does not improve the flavor. It is rather the other way. Of course Prussian Blue and such adulterations are absolutely poisonous.
 "There is not enough in the tea to kill, perhaps; but heve no doubt they cause disease"

Another Poor Fellow Finds a Grave or
 the Lonely and DesOlate Desert.

Mir Reed, who passel through here last week with several wagons and a large band of horses bonnI for Mexico, said that while he was camped at Tortuga, point on the desert half way between this city aud Indio, young man came to to his camp one after noon and begged for something to eat. He took him in and kept him over night.
 The next morning as Southern Pacific freight train was approaching the young man, whose name was afterwards ascertained to be Jack Deming, left the camp and walk ed over to the track and when the engine was five feet away he threw himself directly in front of it and the train passed over him, cut ting off one arm, one foot, making deep cut in the groin and also ipjur ing his head.
 He was picked up and taken in to Mammoth Tank station, where he died half an hour later.
 It appears to have been deliberate act of suicide. The unfortunate young man possessed a quiet and un- assuming desposition. He was in rags and all but shoeless. No doubt des- pondency in not being able to secure employment was the cause of his com mitting the rash act.

health of the child depends On the health of the mother both before and after birth, Heredity is strong, and 1t is every wo1nan's duty to give her children tue best possible chance in life. Nothing that she could pos sibly give them can be as valuable as health. Wealth cannot be enjoyed without health. Nothing can be enjoyed without health. Health is life. People who are not healthy are only half alive. The child who starts out with a robust body and vigorous, virile health, has everything to be thankful for and nothing to be afraid of. You cannot expect such a child to spring from weak and sick1y mother. Most all of won1an's weakness and particularly the weakness that most strongly influences the health of children, comes from some deraugement or disease of the distinctly feminine organs. All such trouble Is as unnecessary as 1t Is terribly distressing. Dr. Pierce'S Favorite Prescription will cure all troubles of this nature. There is no guess-work about this statement, and there is no qualification. The "Favorite Prescription " should be used promptly and persistently until the symptoms entirely disappear. In every case, it restores perfect health and strength and assists in the healthful and regular per formances of all the natural functions. The "Favorite Prescription " should be taken regularly by every woman during tue entire period of gestatiou. I& gives strength to all the organs involved, lessens the pains and danger of childbirth and insures the health of both mother and child,

The Yuma Indians.

Father Gheldof visited Laguna del Tule, in the Colorado valley this week for the purpose of haptizing the In dian children. He arrived there just in time to baptize little one before death called it hence.
 The Father says 1t is something ter rible to contemplate how fast the In-- dians are dying off. It IS his opinion that only few years more and the once powerful and finest formed tribe of Indians on the globe will be no more.
 The census taken 20 years ago when Bishop Bourgarde (then priest) was stationed here showed them to num- Der 2,5OO. Father Gheldof believes that when the census arc again taken not six hundred will be found living
 He gives as the cause of this the Indians association and mixing with the white race and the dessolute habits of the squaws.

A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal b. lious levers. No medicine will act more surely in counteracting and free ing the system from the malaria poison.
