Growing Stronger
Gold Settled on the Lungs and
Caused a Serious Cough - Hope
of Recovery Abandoned but
Hoods Sarsaparilia Cured

GA severe cold settled on my lungs. /
began to cough and kept growing worse
all the time. My husband was paying
out great deal of money for medicine,
but I continued to grow weaker every
day, and in the winter of 1895 I gave up
all hopes OF ever getting better. After
this read of people gaining strength by
taking Hoods Sarsaparilla and my hus-
band advised me to try this medicine. I
purchased three bottles and began taking
it. Before had finished the first bottle
I saw that I was growing stronger and
my cough was looser. After taking two
bottles my cough was gone. I continued
taking Hoods and am now in better
health than have been for years." MARY

PARK CONCERTS.

Effort is being made to promote
park concerts this summer, to be CIV
en- by the Marietta Band. The mem
bers of the band are anxious more es-
pecially to give the concerts for the
advancement of their art, rather than
for pelf. The idea of the concert is
one which will meet with the approv-
al of the public in general, as the out
door musicals in the past have always
demonstrated. 1t is proposed to give
series of IL concerts, probably one a
week-on Thursdays; and if the plan
meets with success the first one will
be held next week.

RITCHIE COUNTY OIL NOTES.

Ritchie county is the nose conspicu-
Gus for the number of experimental
wells drilling. The greater volume OF
the work of this character is located
in the salt sand territory. 1t is well
understood that the salt sand territory
is woefully spotted and unreliable and
the wells decidedly flashy when a
large producer is secured. The larg-
est wells settle to very ordinary pro-
ducers, but after that hang on with
commendable tenacity. Along he
North Fork of Huges river operations
are most active at the present time.
An occasional good well is drilled in
but large number are small or dry.
Southwest of the Whiskey Pun pool
the Associated Producers have drilled
through the sand on the Andy Miller
farm and failed to find anything in
the Big Injun formation. The loca-
tion of this we'll is almost two miles
west and south of the same company's
producer on the Sanford BumgardneI
farm. T. N. Barnsdall's No. 6, Abicht
has not yet reached the sand.
On the Ritchie Lumber Co.'s tract
on Dev.I Hole run, Barnsdall & Rich
are drilling at 1900 feet. The Latrobe
Oil Co.'s No 8, j. s. Bailey, on the
North Fork of Hughes river, has
started to drill and the Swisher Oh
Co.'s No. on the w. w. Harkness
tract is down 600 feet. D. Allen & Co
are drilling at 6vJ feet at a test wei
on the Chas. Wells farm on Low GaI
run.-Oil City Derrick.
