THE WORK OF THE LESAsLAryRE

The Eighteenth session of the
Nevada legislature adjourned at II :.
o'clock Saturday night and it is now
in order for the people to criticise it's
work and kick at individual members
for their acknowledgements :4neA- d
tons submitted to them. The session
was remarkably FREQ from scandal 'of

their condemnation on all attempts to

AMERICANS MAKE ABsINTHE.
1t Is Sold as the Genuine French Ar.
tfcle In All Saloons

- - SOhh az thC ucnulne Fcncn "A r.
ticle In All saloons.
The manufacture of genuine French
absinthe is the latest American indus
try. This is guaranteed to be the real
stuff, straight from the boulevards.
Franco-maniacs who frequent the cheap
table d'hote restaurants of the upper
East and West sides imbibe this stuff,
which in an arrangement of compli-
Gated glasses is allowed to drip into a
glass of water, where it acquires an
Opaque hue. The absinthe is previously
a clear light green liquid. 1t is made
from the common wormwood which is
found in many old New England gar
dens and from which thick oil is dis
titled. 1t has been found by an examina-
ton of custom house exports that 60
years ago large quantities of this Amer
Jean NORWOOD was exported from New
York and Vermont to France, where it
was used in making absinthe.
But so large has the home consump-
ton now grown that we now use all the
NORWOOD for our own production, as
well as five times as much which is im-
ported from Germany and France. The
American NORWOOD is regarded as the
best in the world. Another expensive
herb that is grown here is saffron, which
is worth from six to eight dollars cer
/ pound. Until quite recently the supply
Of saffron came from Vermont, but a
severe drought there killed most of the
plants and the price has increased in
consequence. In many western states,
as well as in Mexico, it has since been
artificially propagated.
In Michigan there are vast fields of
peppermint. which is cultivated care
fully and sells for high price. An
other medicinal herb grown in Michi-
gan is sage, which is sold at S140 per ton,
are imported into the United States
every year at a value of $50 per ton, most
of it coming from Italy. In-the noun
tains of North Carolina and Tennessee
boneset, pennyroyal and thorn apple
leaves are cultivated, as well as man
drake, bloodroot and black cohosh, all
of which are used in patent medicine.
California and Cape Cod are the homes
of horehound, which makes a cough
medicine.
This country raises greater variety
of medicinal herbs than any other, pro-
ducing those that grow in cold and hot
climates. as we'll as those that thrive on
dry mountain tops and in the humid
valleys. Burdock, angelica and bay
berry are some of these roots and others
are spikenard, unicorn root, cascariia,
cramp bark, thyme and pigeon berry.

Who is Your Choice?

Solicitor Monroe johnson and
Sheriff Pradham are both candi-
dates for the seat made vacant
IN the lower house of Congress by
the promotion of John l.. McLau-
rim to the U. S. Senate. They are
both men of resources and would
be watchful of the interests of
Of their constituents. LESESNE
& EPPS are also in the field and
are so closely Unidentified with
your interests as to be able 10 do
you more good then you can ever
receive through legislation. They
bring almost TO your doors the
necessities of life and give them
TO you on such small margins Of
profit as to make it decidsdly 10
your interest to buy of them.
You doubtless need steelj wire
chain, so as to be able to tether
your cow out where she can win
her own living. Then you need
grass blade to procure an abun-
dance of forage for that season
when the grass is no more and the
leaves began TO fall. Both these
articles, with most any other pioce
of hardware, and your fit in shoes
your wants in groceries and to-
bacco and your needs in most any
thing else can be had at lowest
prices from
LEssSE & EPpsE.
