People wonder why their nerves are SO weak;
why they get tired so easily; why they do not
sleep naturally; why they have frequent head
aches, indigestion and
Nervous Dyspepsia. The explanation is
simple. 1t is found in that impure blood feed
ing the nerves on refuse instead of the ele-
ments OF strength and vigor. Opiate and nerve
compounds simply deaden and do not cure.
Hoods Sarsaparilla feeds the nerves pure,
rich blood; gives natural sleep, perfect digeS-
ton, is the true remedy for allnervOus troubles.

LATEST NEWS FROM THE WELL

6 O'clock.

Every thing is running in apple pie
order at the we'll. The drill keeps
chugging away ait the interior of the
United States IN a manner which would
satisfy anyone.
When the Eagle reporter visited the
well yesterday evening the drill was
working in the neighborhood of $50

winding, and when the drill itself APP
peaTed at the surfaoe it seemed as if the
lower end would never reach the sur
face. The drill is something over 80
feet long and about five inches through,
composed of solid steel and by this it can
readily be seen that when it drops
something must give. The stratds of
hard flint was quite 'bothersome, cauS-
ing the drill to chip off quite badly, but
the sandstone, Through which they are
now passing, drills quite nicely.
Every time the duil is lowered five
feet more is drilled before it is raised
and cleaned out The time it takes to
drill this amount varies from 20 minutes
to three or four house, according to the
material being worked upon.
