EMULSION $I5s

Our Emulsion is certainly the
greatest cough killer known.
Whether the cough is acute or
chronic, it will relieve it. 1t
cures any congestion of the lin
ing membrane of the throat and
lungs and restores it to a healthy
condition. Taken at the first
symptom of cold or cough, it
prevents further trouble. Coughs
do not trouble strong throat and
lungs.

Dear Mr.. Hedden:

enough to keep us posted as to your
condition, and we were delighted to
hear through him that you were inn
proving and would soon be out aud
about. am sure that the cause Of
your sickness was high living, as that
lie the case with all newspaper men,
aud they can't help it as they have
such large incomes and have to spend
their money some way. / am sure
that is Squire's trouble. ! don't hear
anything OF any of the lawyers or
doctors getting sick. Hurry up and
get up and come out here, as this eli
mate will cure any disease.
Albuquerque is the metropolis of
New Mexico, and is hustling city of
about $4,000 inhabitants, half OF
whom are Mexicans. 1t is situated
on the main line OF the Santa Fe rail-
road and on the Rio Grande river.
The Santa Fe railroad machine shopS
and foundry are located here and
afford employment for about one-half
the population. The principal indus

mining, sheep raising and train rob-
bling. The other night two young
outlaws held up train sixteen miles

then they have killed three deputy
sheriffs and are still at large. None
OF these things ever happen in this
(Bernalillo) county, as they have a
sheriff here who is terror to evil
doors and who has the respect of the
good people. There is not a more
peaceful or lsw-abiding county in any
Eastern State than is Berhalillo cOun-
ty, New Mexico, and it ia in a great
part due to Tom Hubbell, the sheriff.
1t would be hard for any one to do
Albuquerque justice as to climate
and as resort for people who are so
unfortunate az to have lung or bron-
chisl trouble. The sun shines every
day and rain is not known here at all
except in July. You see people
brought here on cots nearly dead, and
in a few weeks the warm sun and
pure, dry air has done it's work and
they are up and walking about every
where. don't see how the climate
could be improved upon at all, and

tunity was offered me TO come here
and regain as much of my lost
strength as / have. ! have gained

strong as I ever was in my life. In

case you hear of any one coming out
here be sure and tell them to come by

and the Southern Pacific, and SO
many people lose their lives trying to
come over Ration Pass, and then the
Southern route is best for other rea-
sons. The assent is gradual ana does
not start one to bleeding like Ration
Pass does. The Illinois Central runs
the finest trains out OF Louisville, and
on their trains you need no guide
book, as the train officials take the
grestestirpleasure in pointing out
places of interest; in fact they treat
you more as guest than a passen-
ger. The same can be said of the
Southern Pacific and it's celebrated

make travelling pleasure rather than
a hardship. l will take great ploss.

Another Regiment for Kentucky

Governor Bradley has left no stone
unturned to secure for Kentucky a
full regiment under the second call.

hands with him in the effort, aud
they are SO far rewarded that

Kentucky the regiment asked for. The
paw for the Kentucky volunteers, il
is also promised, shall be at once forth

some sections of this county over the
outcome of the wheat crop. During

This school is a credit to the town.
Its officers. trustees, principal and
teachers have good reason for con-
graduating themselves on the splen-
did educational advantages they are
offering to our people. The trustees
have shown an intelligent and
psinstaking interest in the welfare of
the school, that speaks volumes for
their public spiritedness and their de-
sire to do good to the rising genera
ton. The work done by Principal
and teachers is best evidenced by the
classes OF young men and young Ia
dies that have gone out from the
school, many of them directly into
the walks of active business life. The
list of graduates from this institution
can be scanned with much pleasure
by the faithful workers who have not
spared Themselves in any work that
would do good to those entrusted to
their charge.
To Mrs. Mamie X. Hibler is, in
very large part, due the success of
this school. During the years she has
served as Principal she has steadily
kept before her the one aim, to year
by year raise the standard required to
be attained by the students. Her eff
forts in this direction have been 80
well rewarded that she has won the
commentator of all parents and
guardians entrusting tue education of
their children and wards to her keep
ing. The educational interests Of our
public schools will not suffer 80 long
