No sure cure is yet known
for chronic rheumatism. No
man living can cure it always.
He can try. If he fails he can
try another way.
There are many ways.
Some harmless; others worse
than the rheumatism. Better
not take the chance of quack
medicines.
SCOTS emulsion of cod-liver
Oil cures rheumatism only by
crowding it out by vital force.
If that succeeds, it succeeds; if
that fails, it fails. 1t never
does any harm.
Wen send you a little to try if you like.

Game and Fish Law.

There is nothing man forgets
easier than the game law, unless in
deed it be the actual size of the fish
caught. For this reason the RECORD
gives the following of the Colorado
game law. 1t is worth clipping out.
Open seasons ns-Horned deer and
antelope, August Is to November 5.
Horned elk. October 25 to November
5. Turkeys, prairie chickens, sage
chickens and grouse, August Is to
October 81. Ducks, geese, snipes,
curlews, brants, swans and cranes,
September l to April Is, except in
regions over 1000 feet above sea
level where open season begins Sep
tember Is. Wild pigeons and doves
July Is to September 80. Trout,
whitefisb, grayling, sunfish, bass, cat
fish and wall-eyed pike, June l to
October 81.
No open season on buffalo, noun
tain sheep, quails, pheasants, part
ridges, ptarmigans or beaver, but
this does not protect beaver which
injure canals or dams. Natural evid-
ence of sex on elk, deer and antelope
must not be destroyed.
Killing is allowed for food purposes
only. No trout less than eight inches
long may be caught. One person is
limited to fifty ducks and twenty-five
other birds, twenty pounds of trout
and fifty pounds of other fish in
calendar day, and to one elk, one deer
and one antelope Tor instead of one
deer and one antelope two deer or
two antelope) in one season. No per-

Death Of Mr.. Penney.

Although not altogether unexpect-
ed, the death of Mr.. John H. Penney
last Thursday morning came with
keen severity to the friends and rela-
tives of the deceased. For weeks
past Mr.. Penney had been sick, his
condition being marked with coca
sional improvements, but gradually
growing mors serious as the days
dipped by. The best Of medical
skill was in attendance and loving
hands ministered to every possible
comfort, but only to be Knocked with
the final salutation, Good night"
Mr.. Penney was born at Huntsville,
Mo-, 81 years ago, in which state
most of his early years were spent.
At the breaking out of the civil war
he enlisted under the stars and bars,
under which standard he fought until
the close of the war. About twenty
five years ago he located q. Canon
City and engaged in freighting, then
one of the most important industries
of southern Colorado. He next asso-
ciated himself with Mr.. Chas. Pauls
of this city in the furniture and un-
dertaking business, which business
they successfully conducted until a
couple of years ago when they sold
out. Upon the consummation Of the
sale Mr.. Penney purchased the under
taking business of S. S. Nichols, CON
Quoting the same up to the time of
his death.
During the years that have elapsed
since his location in Cahen, Mr.. PEN
ney has been an active and familiar
figure in the business circles of the
town. His business, as we'll as his
personal integrity, was of the high
est order, and his home life was all
that human heart could wish. He
was lover of sport, and fondly en-
joyed hunt or friendly contest at
horse racing.
A wife and two daughters, Miss
Quintina and Mrs. Fred P. Wilson,
survive him, and were present at his
bedside when the final summons
came. The other remaining rela-
tives are two married sisters, one re-
siding at ElPaso, Tex, and the other
at Helena, Ark.
He was buried in the Canon City
cemetery Friday afternoon, the fun
eral being attended by the Red Men
and Woodman of the World lodges Of
this city, of which orders he was an
esteemed member. As = mark of re-
spect to the family and to the mem
ory of the deceased the business
houses of the city were closed dur
ing the funeral exercises.

A Famous Baby.

So many Of our acquaintances and
club friends have during the past
year inquired as to the original
"Bsby Stewart" that we gladly clip
the following from an v1change:
If the number of houses in which
there hang reproductions of a certain
drawing Of little child's head, after
Vandyck, could be enumerated, it
wsuld cause astonishment. There is
nothing surprising in the popularity
of the head. But whatever genius
named it Baby Stuart" is responsible
for many ludicrous misapprehensions.
There are women who believe that
this head was painted by Gilbert
Stuart. There are women who have
asked if it was the infant of A. T.
Stewart. Again, there are women
who know that it depicts ena of the
children of Charles l., but who do not
know which one of his children it is,
whether it is boy or a girl, or who
painted the original. The head is
that of the second son of Charles l.,
and the name of the child was James.
Vandyck painted him time and time
again. One of the family groups of
Charles children by Vandyck hangs
in Turin. From the head of little
James in that group copy was made
by Raffsello Canevari. a drawing, and
that copy hangs in the Academy of
st. Luke at Rome. From Canevari's
drawing the countless army of pho
tographs, engravings, Autographs and
prints, which have spread to the ut
termost parts of the earth, proceeded.
Let us change the title, for we
think Baby Stuart" has done duty
long enough. Why not call him
Little Jamesw Then, at least, all
his worshipers would know his sex.
He became King James II. of England
in 1856 and, according to eminent
authority, he gave evidence of pos
sessing all the vices of his race with
plt any of its virtues. His reign was
short and infamous. He was in exile
at st. Germain when he died, in 17Ol.
Such was the chubby and guileless
looking royal baby in the cap.

Base Ball.

Canon City met defeat on the ball
field Sunday in very loosely played
game of ball. Florence went to the
bat first and started in to make runs
by getting to first on balls, a nice
little hit occasionally and some good
base running, and before Canon put
them out, they had scored nine runs.
Canon came to the bat little dis
couraged but managed to make four
runs, and in the next inning, when
they shut Florence out, things didn't
look so bad, but they couldn't get up
enough steam to win out.
Only seven innings were played and
at the end the score stood is to %
in favor of Florence. There we're no
brilliant plays made during the game
and was rather tame. The small boy
was in evidence and made 30 much
noise that it was impossible to hear
the umpire, or anything else for that
matter.
If Canon City is to have ball play
ing and especially on Sunday, the
small boy should be eliminated from
the game, or be made to keep quiet.
Otherwise the game was very gentle
manly.

New Firm.


About three weeks ago Messrs. j.
N. and A. l. Hadlsy arrived here from
Nebraska, looked the ground over,
and came to the conclusion that
Canon City was as good place to go
into business as any they had seen in
Colorado; and yesterday they open
ed nice, clean little grocery store
at 4054 Main street. The stock for
sale consists of fancy groceries, con-
fectionery, cigars and tobacco. They
will also run an Ice Cream parlor in
connection, which has been fitted up
in first-clsss style.
Both gentlemen are good business
men, and Canon is fortunate in having
them locate here.

goner, W. 7. s. Cooper, and Jas. H.
Freeman were the candidates for
treasurer, Mr.. Waggoner came out
ahead by few votes. There were
81 votes cast which is considered a
large vote at an election Of this kind
here. Six and . half mills on taxable
property was voted and will place
our school district on q good finan-
cial basis, and will warrant the en-
Iployment of two teachers in our
school.
A. D. Mclean will start next week
with Pueblo party, to investigate
some mineral property near Michip-
coten Harbor, Ontario, Canada.
The d. & r. G. bridge gang are

The picnic given by the school OF
Specimen Hill Friday, was a very en-
joysbls affair, and the occasion will
long be remembered with pleasure
The children began to smanate from
their homes in every direction early
in the morning, followed later by
grown folks with wagons loaded with
living freight and rich viands. Arriv-
ing at the destination ramble began
among the hills, and especially on
Specimen Hill, where large collec-
tion of beautiful petriied specimens
were found. At dinner the party had
all things in common, and repast Of
chicken, ice cream, cake and lots Of
other good things were spread and
partaken of, with such keen appetite,
that only trip in our pinion covered
hills can give. Professor Trampe had
his kodak along with him and photo
graphed the party several times ir
different localities and postures. All
returned home quite, tired, but with
out an accident of any kind.
The recent rise in Arkansss has
been hard on foot bridges, and the
