bination is to be kept secret at pres

used successfully in more than ten
cases in Nevada No injury has oc-
cured in any case. We offer our
record. Those who use Trib (includ.
ing some physicians OF the best
standing) are satisfied.
We do not recommend Trib to be
taken inwardly. Though it contains
no narcotics; we offer it for outward
use only. 1t may be used for
sprains, bruises, stiffness of muscles,
and similar ailments, and for relief
in some cases of rheumatism:
For chilblains, chatings and blist-
ers; and for the relief of hives.
For frost-bite, and for burns and
scalds where the exposed surface Is

liniment dangerous:
For insect bites and stIngs, for

not "bathe" in it, even when using it
as rub-down-they just rub lit

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
The Board Meets and Practices Economy by
DRAWING SlIl.8O for Three Hours Work.

The Board of County Commission
ers held it's regular quarterly meet
ing last Monday, full Board present,
and transacted the following bust
ness:
The minutes of the previous meet
ing were read and approved.
The list of bills allowed will be
found in another column.
Two bills of A. A. Pinkerton, JUS
tice of the Peace for Mason Valley
Township, were cut, one from $50 so
to S42.so, and the other from SASS to
SA55. This reduction is hardly
enough, however, to pay the month
ly salary OF one member of the
Boa I'd.
The Recorders and Clerks fee
statements were received, read and
filed.
The Assessor and Sherif's quarter
ly reports were received, read and
ordered filed.
The Auditor and Treasurer's joint
quarterly report was received, read
and filed. 1t will be found in another
column of this issue.
The report of A. A. Pinkerton, ex-
otticio Coroner, in relation to the
death of Pat McGrain, and of prop
erty found on his person, was read,
and upon motion of the District At
tory the Treasurer was INSTRUCTED
to hold said property, as it was un-
derstood that deceased had checks
and other money in his possession at
the time of his death.
F. A. Teasland sent in his resigna-
ton as Registry Agent of Mound
House precinct.
Morris Pursel, of Plummer, G. M.
Carter, of Smith Valley, and b.
Moran, of Sutro, qualified as Regis
try Agents of their respective pre-
cincts.
A petition for public road was
denied. Although the proposed new
road was in Mason Valley it appear
ed that it would be of no practical
benefit to the Touring mill.
The cash in the treasury was
counted and found to be correct

secretary was instructed to prepare
report of the work of the committee
since it's appointment last December
and to forward the same to the State
Superintendent of Public Instruc-

The committee has gone over the
entire question OF text books in Ne
vada, not with the idea of making
changes in the books, but by provid-
ing definite and uniform series.
1t was the purpose of the commit
tee to save expense to parents who
remove with their children from
one district to another, for at pres
ent the teachers IN different parts of
the State are using many different
varieties of books in their schools

Had an Operation Performed.

Mrs. ID. p. Randall and her little
daughter took their departure for
Oakland, Cal, last week Friday, for
the benefit of the child's health. The
little one has suffered with asthmat-
ic and bronchial troubles for the
past year, and at times her parents
despaired of saving her life. The
first of this week, however, Mrs.
Randall had an operation performed
on the child's throat and nose by a
San Francisco physician, and two
growths of considerable size re-
moved therefrom. The child is now
doing nicely, and the physician gives
great hope of her speedy and COM
plete recovery.

The Bee is the best daily newspaper
published on the Pacific Coast. 1t is
a Silver Republican paper, political

cause for years past. The Bee has
later Geographic news than any
San Francisco paper. In Offering it

giving the people of Lyon County
the best selection of news for their

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Kustachian Tube.
When this tube gets inflamed you
have rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness il the result, and un-
less the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to it's nor
NAL condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by
Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for cir
culars, free.
