Disease is great and treacherous ocean

and recedes almost playfully-but all the
same it will crack his bones and eat him.
and wipe the crimson foam from its Jaws
as if nothing had happend, as it has been
doing ever since the world began.
A man who carelessly saunters along the
shore of the insatiate sea of disease, will
some day encounter great storm in the
form of some fatal maiady and will be en-
quilted. Because a man does not have to go
to bed when he suffers from trivial indi-
gestion, because he does not have to give
up work when he gets nervous and cannot
sleep at night, because he can still force
down an unsatisfactory meal when he is
suffering from loss of appetite, because by
strong effort he can add column of figures
with aching heads no reason that these
disorders are trihing or to be neglected
They are the warnings of serious sickness.
A man who promptly heeds them, and re-
sorts to the right remedy, will speedily re-
cover his usual health. The man who neg
1ects them will find that he is in the grip
of consumption, some nervous disorder, or
some other dread malady, due to improper
or insufficient nutrition. DR.. Pierce's

IRRIGATION AND THE WRIGHT

The drought Of last year again Illus
trated the great necessity Of the stor-
age OF mountain waters and winter
rains for irrigation purposes to meet
the contingency of dry seasons. The
expense OF such an undertaking Is so
Tar beyond the means Of the State, and
the advantages are SO great to the Fed
eral Government for the irrigation, re-
ciamatlon and sale of it's public arid
lands within the State, that the money

falls within the domain Of Congress.
Inc construction of storage reservoirs
would induce settlers to take up Local
lions upon the public arid Lands en-
hancing, through settlement and cult
walton, the value Of such land, and add
ing largely to the population and
wealth Of the State and nation.
Our Senators and Representatives in
Congress should be requested to intro
duce a measure to secure Federal aid
in this direction. Our State has not

favorable results have followed the So
called Wright Act, burdening the land
owners, imposing additional taxes and
causing perplexing litigation. While
some portions of the State have been
favored through it, other parts have
been injured.
Bonds aggregating a large sum Of
money have been issued upon the
doubtful securities afforded by several
irrigation districts, and in many cases
even the interest on these bonds has
not been paid so that the bonds them
selves are practically unstable.
Some measures should be adopted
which will prevent the continuance Of
such undesirable conditions. and put an
end to the litigation and loss conse-
quent upon this class of legislation.
