You will never find our Doc
tor out. He is here to give
advice without chargesto those
who need him to those who
don't, sometimes. He doesn't
always recommend the Aver
medicines, because the Aver
medicines are not "cure-alls. y
Perhaps if we tear a leaf
from his correspondence it will
show you what we mean. Here
is a letter which came last
March.
"DEAR DR.. AVER:
want your advice for my little boy.
He is getting very thin. He has no appe-
tite. He is fifteen years old. When he
was four years old he had lung fever, but
his health was good until two years ago.
Since then he is failing fast. The doctors
here say he has the bronchitis. He spits
all the time awful bad The spits are big,
thick, and white. Yours truly,
Mrs. MARGARET MURPHY,
March 90, 1900. Kinbrae, Mimi"

Notes.

Some women always remind you Of
disguised men.
Among the hardest troubles to bear
are those that seem needless.
1t is easy enough for millionaire
to believe that contentment is better
than wealth-for he finds it harder to
acquire.
The rich man has troubles Of which
the Door man knows nothing.
There are never any girls prettier
than the one you are in love with,
but there are plenty Of women hand
somer than the one you generally mar

And this is the way the Doc
tor answered Mrs. Murphy:

GDEAR MADAM:
1--WE enclose our book on The Throat
and Lungs, in which We trust you will fnd
Just the information you desire.
"You should begin at once the use OF
this Cherry Pectoral for your son, giving
it in moderate doses. Then procure some
good preparation of cod-liver oil, as
Scott's Emulsion, and give him that, as
we'll. Pay particular attention to his diet,
giving him such nourishing foods as rare
steak, lamb chops, good milk, eggs, etc.
Above all, keep him out of doors all that
the weather permits. There is nothing
that will do him more good than plenty Of
fresh air. Let him live out of doors all
that is possible. BY carrying out these
general suggestions we shall hope to hear
soon that your son is improving In every
way. Very truly yours,
April 5, 1900. J. c. AVER"
You see, it wasn't only the
Aver medicines that we recon-
mended. The first idea of the
Doctor was to cure that boy.
The result is told in this letter:
"DEAI DR.. AVER:
my little boy has improved so much
since received your advice that l want to
write and tell you how thankful Lam.
"When first wrote you, on March
90, he only weighed 50 pounds, but now
he weighs 81 pounds; and all this gain
since the 9Th of April, when first began
to follow your directions.
please let me thank you again for what
you have done for my boy.
July II, 1900. MARGARET MURPHY"
Perhaps it was the cod
liver oil; perhaps it was the
Cherry Pectoral. Probably it
was both. But, more than
either, it was the good, sound
advice the Doctor gave in the
first place. We arc here to
serve you in just the same way,
and we will tell you the medi-
cine for your case or tell you
what medicines to avoid.
Five out of ten of our cor
respondents need doctor
rather than a prepared medi-
cine, and we tell them so. If
the doctors only knew it, we
are working with them every
day.

REWARDED THEIR FRIENDS.

The board of county commissioners,
which is entirely Democratic, has
created an innovasion in the way OF
dealing with newspapers. Bids were
asked for printing its notices. A
gentlemenly proposition was made by
the publishers of Fremont county. Ii
was turned down with scorn and in
sarcastic terms and deal hastily
made with its Democratic organ for
such service. Bids we're asked for
job printing. When opened the COM
missioners were disappointed to find
the Clipper had failed to bid, so the
offers were all cast in the waste
basket and another quiet deal made
with the Democratic organ to do this
work at fair figure. II the prices
are not lower than the bids offered
by other shops it would be strange,
since the fortunate Office had the op-
porsunity of consulting the opened
bids and making figures to suit.
Now, while we do feel that the
newspapers in the county were not
given . square deal and that the ad-
vertisements for bids were put out
merely as blind, still we have no
word of censure for the board OF
commissioners. We believe in parti-
san politics and the counts officer who
fails to stand by his friends and his
party newspaper is not worthy Of the
place he holds. We have alwa $ ad-
mired the Democrats of Fremont
county for this disposition, and have
sssn that 1t is their one strong fea-
ture. They stand by each other and
reward their friends They have done
this not only in thei, newspaper deal

RAILROAD TIME CARD
TWAS ALWAYS THUS.

The Overland Monthly, while a
magazine of the West. is magazine
for the world 1t is interesting al
ways but the richest thing in maga-
zine reading in many months is the
article on Territorial Expansion in
the December number. 1t is inter
ssting to read how every time it has
seemed advisable to add territory to
the United States lin the eases Of
Florida, Louisiana. California, Alaska
in every instance an element of
pessimists has arisen to cry against
imperialism" and make great noise
about ''anti-expansion." 1t is no
worse today than it was in 1909,
whom the Louisiana purchase was
talked of and made. The talk Of
those who want to give up the Philli-
pines is very simillr to that used by
the ''anties" in sc and '67 regarding
the purchase of Alaska. 1t seems
that no good thing has ever been
done in government without strong
opposition Of the minority party. aud
the minority party seems to have
always been the Democrats.

WOODFORD & DAWSON,
400 Main street
Not Abandoned. A

For several weeks no work has
been done on the new electric lighting
line being put in by the Colorado
Electric Power Company, and this
has given rise to the talk that the
project had been abandoned. Mr.
Conkle, manager for the company,
was seen the other day on the street
and asked about the matter. He said
'No sir, we have not abandoned our
proposition, but have been only tenn
porarily DELAYED by several iDjunc-
tinns gotten out by competing lines.
1t seems that the first delay came
when JOS H. Maupin obtained TEN
porary injunction to prevent the
Colorado Electric Power Company
from placing certain poles along the
line. Later the case of Jos. H.
Maupin VS.. The Colorado Electric
Power Company and G. C. Conkle'
was ammendad so in effect it would
practically nnull the franchise grant
ID the new company because it had
not been submitted to a vote of the
people. This was decided Friday by
Judge Bailey in favor of Jos. H
Maupin.
Mr.. Conkle has two recourses-he
can appeal the case to higher court
or he can have the question submitted
to vote of the people, which will no
doubt be done.
Again on Tuesday suit was filed
in the district court entitled "The
Canon City Electric Light and Power
Company, H. B Slater, secretary, vs
G. c. Conkle and The Colorado Elec-
trio Power Company" brought to
compel the new company to remove
their polls and wires and to prevent
them from operating their present
lines or constructing any new ones.
