A Daugh liter Saved.
WONDERFUL RECOVERY OF MISS HATTIE KING.
had Almost Fled The Best Physicians Failed to Do Anything for Her.
From the Nhacan, Ithaca, N. Y

Another bad symptom was cough, which
was so unremitting that it was the general
opinion of our friends that she was consump.
tive. She lost flesh rapidly. Sometimes she
would be confined to the bed for two or
three weeks, then be around again, but only
to suffer relapse.
She was not only a physical wreck. but
her mind was affected, and at times she had
no realization of what she was doing. We
feared, in fact, a complete mental overthrow
and consequent removal to an asylum, for
although we had two of the best physicians
in the city, and had tried several proprietary
medicines, none benefited her.
1--WE had read considerable about DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, and
had also heard of some cases where they
had done good and we decided to give them
a trial. We purchased some at the drug
store of White & Burdick, of this city.
Hattie began to take the pills in the
early part of January of this year. I'M
provement was noticeable after the first box
had been taken. The first hopeful sign that
| noticed was that she did not complain Of
headache. The attacks of dizziness also be.
gan to abate in frequency, and she ceased to
cough One after another, the distressing
symptoms left her. She took, in all, nine
boxes of the pills. At the present time she
is in perfect health The alteration in heI
mind and body is almost past belief.
=" cannot say enough in praise of DR.. Will
linms' Pink Pills, for they saved the life o.
our daughter"

Rapid City w ms Out,

Inspector Green, who WAS re-
Gently sent To South Dakota TO
make an investigation of the question
ofthe removal Of the land Office, from
Rapid City to Dsedwood, has reported
to Land Commissioner Hermann, saws
a Washington special. lie is opposed
to any change In the location of the
Office and it is probable that the COM
missioner will approve the report and
allow the Office to remain at its present
location. Mr.. Green says that while
Deadwood is nearer the unsurveyed and
unsettled portions of the district, al.
though geographically more centrally
located than Rapid City, the latter city
is in a better location than the former
for homesieaders. Upon the REQUIRE.
ments Of the law this class of entrymen
are required to make application in
person, while mineral entryme lei can
send their applications By mail He
submits to show that the removal wonld
work to the disadvantage Of the home
steader and intimafed that the change
wonld he almost entirely in the interest
OF one mining corporation, the Home
stake Mining company.

Our Mines.

While the war has has to some ex-
tent, served to detract public attention
from the mining resources of this loc-
atty, it is gratifying to state that the
fullest confidence in the merit Of u
mining properties remains mistaken,
and that the work Of development is
still being pro secuted upon the nor
prominent locations with undated vigor,
and with higly gratifying results.
Upon the Norh Star group on the
Penobscot belt, a vein Of promising
character, massive in proportion and OF
excellent quality has been cross cut
at a depth of 100 feet, which clearly es-
tablishes the value OF this extensive and
promising group.
In the Gold Coin shaft in the Dansby
district west of this city, q nine foot vein
of payable ore is being explored at a
depth of - feet, and the erection of a
mill TO treat the ore is now being held
under favorable contemplation. Upon
the LizzIe group n short distance north
east of the city, operations are being
continued with highly encouraging re-
suits. The main shaft has attained a
depth Of about $50 feet, and the ore en-
countered at this depth, as shows by
careful and elaborate tests, carries val.
ues which warrant a fair margin of pro-
fit in its reduction.
Other mining properties are also
being developed which promise well,
and it may be truly said, that at no
time in our local history has the out
look for a full and thorough develop.
ment Of our mineral resources been as
hopeful and promising as it is to-day,
the eventual success of which is beyond
the question of a doubt.

exceedingly flattering. The State of
Illinois is known to be short about 5000
head, and Iowa is now being sifted for
this class Of horses at prices ranging
from SIS to $3.50 per head, and the prices
are advancing rapidly. Now is the time
to urn your attention to the raising OF
Of this class of horses. w. G. Ward, of
Custer, is nov offering for sale a num-
Der Of large, well bred, trotting stations,
which may be bought cheap for cash.
