rbe Emo of,ne worIdin 1914.

A famous scientist predicts that the
world will come to an end in 1914,
basing his calculations on the revela-
tions OF the Bible. If this is SO, it is
we'll for us to get what pleasure we
can out OF the few years that remain
for US to live. One OF the surest ways
to enjoy life is the possession of good
health, and a we'll regulated stomach.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will en-
able any one to obtain this. 1t is the
greatest medicine for the cure of ills
that arise from a bad stomach. 1t
cures dyspepsia. constipation, fever
and ague, malaria, rheumatism and
insomnia. No other medicine can
show record equal to Hostetter's
Stomah Bitters, the standard medi-
cine of he American people for over
fifty years.

Personal Mention OF Several For

To the Editor of the SENTINEL:
Chas. Trembly has a position at the
asylum.
Adolph Mannheim has a confection-
cry store here.
Jimmie Lucey is driving the deliv.
cry wagon for the Co Op. Store.
Several former Eureka people are
living here, and seem contented with
themselves and the world in general.
Joe Hansman and wife are living
here. Mr.. Hansman's health has
been quite poor OF late and he is not
engaged in any business.
John, Lewis, and Henry Wedekind
are here. Henry and Lewis are work.
ing in the Reno Star Mine, while
Johnnie has an assay Office in the
Wedekind District.
Reno is thriving little city. The
several good mines which are being
developed here have tended to make
things.exceedingly lively. As result
new buildings are steadily going up,
and there are very few vacant houses.
The Reno Star Mine has been the
subject of much talk lately, and the
81 told you so" gossips are being kept
busy. 1t happened this way: Mr..
Wedekind's Reno Star Mine claim
extends few feet over on some pat
ented agricultural land owned by a
Mrs. Conroy, who is now living here.
A few days ago this lady sold or bond
ed some of the land, including that
part covered by the Wedekind loca-
tion, to Mr.. Bell, who at once started
shaft within $50 feet OF the workings
of the Reno Star. AS Mr.. Wedekind
does not own the surface he can not
interfere with that work, but he has
the right to all mineral on his claim.
whether on patented or Government
land, and should Mr.. Bell find mineral
where he is working, Mr.. Wedekind
will not allow him to remove it.
There will, no doubt, be trouble yet,
but Mr.. Wedekind is confident that he
has right on his side. Another car
load of second-class ore left Reno this
week, consigned to Selby & Co., San
Francisco, and the Reno Star is look
ing better every day.
There are now five houses on the
property, aside from the assay office.
and two more dwellings and barn
will soon be built. This will make
quite respectable start for the new
town, which will be named "Bryap

Peruna is a specific for hay fever,
and should be taken during the whole
season of the exposure to the cause;
for, as long as the exciting cause re-
mains, no cure can be permanent.
People who are unable to change their
location during the season of hay few
er will find Peruna a priceless benefit
to them, as it meets every Disagree
able symptom exactly. 1t is always
advisable to begin the use of Peruna
a week or two before the expected at
tack of hay fever in old cases, where
the attack can be foretold, and this
will often prevent entirely the return
of the disease. Address DR.. Hartman,
Columbus, o., for a free book.
