A Rich Quartz Vein Reported Discovered
in Medina County.
The gold rush to California OF
'49 is likely to be repeated if indica-
tions are true. But the rush will
not be for California this time; it
will be for Texas.
EJohn Rieden, a well-known
farmer of Medina county, arrived
in the city this morning, and is
telling his friends about a gold
mine near Castroville. Mr.. RE
den's father, Frank Rieden, ST.,
owns a 400-acre tract Of land at
Quihi City, about ten miles west of
Castroville, and gold quartz has
been found on this place. Geolo-
gist Gustav Jenny has made as
assay Of the quartz and pronounces
it very rich. He advised Mr.. RE.
den:to dig along the vein, and says
indications for rich quartz are
very favorable.
Mr.. Rieden has been at work the
pasti five months and has now
reached depth Of ninety feet.
Geologist Jenny values the quartz
now, at So ton.
Beside the gold quartz, other
valuable minerals have been dis
covered on the place.

thousands from beds of sickness. 1t
does what nothing else ever did for the
Sleppless, the dyspeptio, ana the de-
spondent-it cures them once and for

Miller of Columbus, o., accompanying
the photograph of his family.
For two years past have been a con-
stant sufferer with severe nervous head
aches, ofttimes being compelled to so
to bed, when my business neoessitated
my personal attention. Last week my
physician recommended Paine's celery
compound. l have taken now four
bottles, and have not suffered with
headache since This government, in
my mind, should pay the discoverer Of
Paines celery compound sum of
money sufficient to keep him and all
his relatives in luxury during their
natural life
Mr.. Miller is the son of DIR. J. ID.
Miller. His wife is the granddaughter
of the late Gov Lucas of Ohio. Mr..
Miller's praise of Paine's celery COM
pound is equaled by that of thousands
of others who owe their health and
strength to this greatest of all rem
edies.

Paine's celery compound.
Sufferers from debility who find their
ConvalesoenCe too slow, are JOY ously
surprised by the brisk impetus toward
recovery that comes from Paine's celery
compound. Its healing, nerve.restor.
ing, blood. making, nourishing powers
go so directly to the root of the trouble
that the progress toward health and
strength is steady and uninterrupted.
No relapses come when Paine's celery
compound has once fairly begun its
healthful action.
With stronger appetite, sounder
sleep, and better digestion (results that
everyone has experienced who has
taken Paine's celery compound), the
weak and sore kidneys and the tired
stomach cease to trouble, and the
nerves allow one to work unvexed by
day and to sleep by night without dis
turbance. This is what physicians
mean when they say that Paine's celery
compound cures nervous diseases per.
manently.
