a WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
Something new Under
The Sum-"

All Doctors have tried to cure Catarrh by
the use Of powders, acid gases, inhalers and
drugs in paste form. Their powders dry up
the mucous membranes causing them to
crack open and bleed. The powerful acids
used In the inhalers have entirely eaten
away the same membranes that tn cir makers
have aimed to cure, while pasts and oint-
ments.cannot reach the disease. An old
and experienced practitioner whe has for
many years made close study snd speciality
of tho treatment OF Catarrh has at last per.
fected Treatment which when faithfully
used, not only relieves at once, but per
manently cuIes Catarrh, by removing the
cause, stopping the disch argos, and curing
all inflammation. 1t is the only remedy known
to science that actually reaches the afflicted
parts. This wonderful remedy is known as
"SNUFFLEs theGUARANTEED CATaRRH CURE"
and is sold at the extremely low price OF One
Dollar, each package containing internal and
external medicine sufficient for full
months treatment and everything necessary
to its perfect use.
'Snuffle5" is the only perfect Uatarrh
Cure ever made and Is now recognized as
the only safe and positive cure for that an
noying and disgusting disease. 1t cures all
inflammation quickly and permanently and Is
also wonderfully quick to relieve Hay Fever
or Cold in the Head.
Catarrh when neglected often leads to
Consumption-"Snufil will save you IL
you u.e it at once. 1t Is no ordinary
remedy but complete treatment which Is
positively guaranteed to cure Catarrh in any
form:.or stage II used according to the direc-
tions which accompany each package. Don't
delay but send for 1t at once, and write full
particulars as TO your condition, and you
will receive special advice from the discov
erer OF this wonderful remedy regarding
your case without cost to you beyond the

spent several months there, then being con
nected with the United States Surveying
Corps, and In his official report says:
"here are countless millions OF tons Of
rich gol1 quartz reduced by the great forces
of nature to condition ready for the appll-
cation OF the hydraulic process, while the
entire bed of the Rio Grade for over 40
miles Is sluice, on the bars OF which the
gold derived from the wearing away Of the
gravel banks has been accommodating fol
countless ages, and now lies ready for ex
traction by the most approved methods OF
river mining. The thickness OF the Rio
Grande gold gravel exceed In many places
600 feet, or nearly three times that OF the
like beds In California, while the average
value per cubic yard Is believed to be greater
In the New Mexico beds than in any other
such accumulations yet discovered.
II have made reconnaissance of the whole
of this gravel along the Rio Grande, and
have examined with all the care possible in
the time at my command the character OF
the gravel and its contents OF gold. Moth
ing. am persuaded, since the discovery OF
California and Australia Is comparable for
its measurable resources OF gold available
