When anything stands a test Of over sixty years among a discriminating
people like the Americans, and steadily increases in sale, it is prettv good
evidence that there is merit somewhere. Such is the record of Brandretb,s
Pills.
In 1886, one year after they were introduced into the United states.
$4,000 oxes were sold and in 1897, 1,I23oo7 boxes we're sold in this
country alone, not to speak of the large and increasing sales throughout the
world, where they have been o sale since 177o-nearly one hundred and
thirty years. Doesn't this speak volumes for the virtues Of Brandreths Pnls7
That they actually perform all that is claimed for them, is conclusivelv
proved by the fact that those who regard them with the greatest favor are
those who have used them the longest.
Brandreths Pills ire purely vegetable, and ire made of the highest class
goods obtainabc. For two years every pill lies in the storehousc before it is
put o sale. This allows the medicine to mellow and soften, and explains
why the catharhc action of Brandreth's Pills lis so certain and s. easy. The
system never becomes Injured to them, they car be taken indefinitely, and if
stopped at any time, the functions will proceed to act in a natural manner.
They ire the safest medicine 10 take yourself and the safest to give your
children. Sold throughout the world, both plain and sugar coated.

Another great discovery has been
made, and that too, by a lady in this
country. "Disease fastened its clutch
es upon her and for seven years she
withstood its severest tests, but her
vital organs were undermined and
death seemed imminent. For three
months she coughed necessarily, and
could not sleep. She finally discovered
a way to recovery, by purchasing of us
a bottle of DIR. Kings New Discovery
for Consumption, and was so much re-
lieved on taking first dose, that she
slept all night; and with two bottles,
has been absolutely cured. Her name
is Mrs. Luther Lutz." Thus writes w.

The bridge gang have now finished
the bridge across the Cheyenne river.
1t is quite an imposing structure and
is a decided improvement, both in APP
pearance and utility, over the old
wooden one which it has replaced. 1t
is reported to have cost about twenty
thousand dollars. The bridgemen
went up to Argentine last Monday,
where they will unload material and
commence work on another bridge.

Johnson on the bridge gang last fall,
and later braking on the High line,
departed for Walla Walla, Washington,
last Monday.
1t is reported here that the b. & NJ.
will change time so that the passenger
train will arrive from the west about
$50 p. m. instead of at $50, while ii
will depart for the north aud west at
about 10 p. m. By this we would re-
ceive our mail from the east much
quicker, yet we doubt if the change
will be appreciated.
The fire department was out fol
practice again last Saturday. This
time the pump was in good order, and
went to work at once. Water was car
ried through 400 feet of hose and ther
thrown on top of one of the highest
buildings in town, and this with but
four men at the pump. This prove.
beyond a doubt that with the two hose
lines. and the pump working at it's full
capacity, we can handle any ordi
nary fire.
