Mr.. H. N. Warner, Of Kearney,
Neb., says:
Gin 1894 I was attacked with
paralysis in my left side. You
might stick pin to the head
into my left hip and / would not
feel it. I was unable to do any
kind of work, and had to be turned
in bed. fully made up my mind
that could not be cured, as had
used all kinds of medicine and had
tried many doctors. At last I
was advised to try DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, and I
very reluctantly commenced their
use last September. Before had
finished my first box I began to
feel much better, and by the time
1 had used six boxes the paralysis
disappeared; and although two
months have passed since I finished
my last box, there has been no re-
currence of the disease"

Durham, Nov. n. The situation
in Natal has taken on a new phase.
the Beers having abandoned every
thing south of Estcourt General
Hillyard has advanced north to
Freere station whore the armored
train disaster occurred. Hillyard
is reported to have ten thousand
men with him.
There is feeling of elation on
the part of many on account of
the withdrawal of the Beers, but
there is some suspicion that this is
new Boer game which is not quite,
clear,
A dispatch says that large
Boer force is proceeding west from
the Mooi river in the direction of
Greyto'wn.
The Whereabouts of General
Joubert is still matter of con
lecture.
A message from Ladysmith says
that a combined attack upon that
town is hourly expected. The gar
rison believes this is the reason of
the Beers withdrawal from the
South.

A Wonderful Cure Of Diarrhna.
G.. H. IRON, Secrets

A prominent Virginia editor had
almost given up, but was brought back
to perfect health by Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy. Read
his editorial:
suffered with diarrhHa for long
time and thought was past being cured.
I had spent much time and money and
suffered so much misery that had
almost decided to give up all hopes Of
recovery and await the result, but MOTTO
ing the advertisement OF Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrh@a Remedy,
and also some testimonials stating how
some wonderful cures had been wrought
by this remedy, / decided to try it. After
taking few doses was entirely well of
that trouble, and wish to say further to
my readers and fellow-sufferers that I
am . hale and hearty man to-day and

Things That Other People Do.

The man who does his best to make the
world a better place,
Whose heart is pure, who dares to look
his neighbor in the face,
Is not the one who takes delight in hold
ing up to view
And scofing at the foolish things that
other people do.
The man who gains the noble height
where fame and honor wait
Wins no delight from petty spite, he
gives no heed to hate,
For he has little chance to reach this
distant summit who
Gives up his time to smudging things
that other people do.
l like the honest man who tries to keep
away from sin,
I like the man who seeks to rise, but
does no wrong to win
The world is brighter for the day spent
in his presence who
Can keep from finding fault with things
that other people do.

miles north Of Ell Paso, Texas, on the
summit of the Sacramento mountains. It
is at the terminus of the Alamegerdo and

rounding country. On the north, White
mountain covered with snow the greater
portion Of the year, rearing his hoary
head 1900 feet high; on the west the
white sands of the Tularosa valley, which
constitute the most wonderful formation
in New Mexico, and presenting an APP
pearance not unlike white pillows rolling
in from the sea; on the south and east
boundless forests of spruce and pine,
sMaying on the hills and in the valleys
below, all taken together form scenery
unsurpassed for its magnificence.
CLIMATE.
The climate of the Sacramento is sim
ply superb. It is not excelled by that of
any other region. The atmosphere is
cool and inyigorating and absolutely
free from impurities.
AS evidence of the excellence of the
climate Of this region Of New Mexico, it
is only necessary to state that the United
States government, after careful inves-
tigation of all the country in its vast do

B0SSIER'S FAIR.
More Data Furnished the Banner BY
the Clever Secretary.

.
Preparations for the fair are
aimest completed. By Saturday
night every nail will have been
driven.
The stalls for horses mules and
cattle and the pens for sheep and
hogs are commodious and well
constructed.
Water will be plentiful on the
grounds. Those who do not bring
food for their stock can obtain it
on the grounds at reasonable
price. Corn, oats, hay, wheat,
bran and chops will be kept for
that purpose.
Those intending to bring ex-
hibits are urgently requested to
send them as early as possible.
Placing and arranging the vari-
GUS articles, and listing the en-
tries for premiums will be work of
Importance, and the committee
having that work in charge would
like to have everything in by
Monday, if possible.
Wednesday, the second day of
the fair, will be Veterans day,
and they will have an interesting
program, a prominent feature of
which will be an address to the
veterans by DR.. w. T. Boiling, of
Shreveport, an eminent and elo-
quent Methodist minister.
Other addresses, by men of
prominence, on special subjects,
connected with agriculture and
live stock will be interesting and
instructive.
No effort has been spared to
make this fair a benefit to the far
mer, and it is earnestly hoped our
farmers will come and encourage
the good work in their behalf,
which. has just begun. There is
hope ahead for the farmer, but it
lies only in the direction of en-
lightened, up-to-date methods of
agriculture. Maj. J. G. Lee and
his able assistants will be there to
talk to you on that line. Come
and. listen to them and you will
carry home with you from the
fair that hope and cheer which
lightens the step and uplifts the
head.
This is day Of organizations
and the farmer is most in need of
it. If success is to be the reward
of his labors, he must organize
| himself into a trust, a monopoly,
for the conduct of his own busi-
ness upon strictly business prin-
ciples. He must make himself in.
dependent of all other trusts. He
alone can do that. Improved
methods of farming lessen the
cost of production, and the profit
in any business is the over-plus
difference between what a thing
costs you and what you sell it for.
Come and hear farmers talk who
are making success of farming.
| Yours truly,
c.. H. IRON, Secretary.
