BALL A GREAT SUCCESS.
New Years Hop of the Firemen
Was Well Patronized.

The New Years eve ball given by Col
fax Engine Co. No. l was one of the
greatest successes in ball history in the
city. 1t was literally patronized by the
townspeople, who felt that hard work
done by the fire boys in arranging for
the dance should be appreciated. The
total receipts were 1921, and 500 of this
was left in the company treasury after
all expenses were settled
The chief feature of the evening were
dancing contests by young couples under
IA years. 1t was at first determined to
give first and second prizes only, in
cash; but in view of the splendid crowd
which attended, it was later concluded
to offer third prize, raising the amount
to be thus disbursed to $40.
The first prize, IS in cash, for waltz,
ing, was captured by Gussie Hess and
Josie Lloyd; the second, SO, by Cotton
Howard and Rita Hamilton, and the
third, 81, by Roy Privett and Nellie
Miller

OF Mr.. Rice's playing the Butte, Mon
tana, Daily Miner of recent date says:
THE thrilling, vibrating notes from his
violin held the audience spelbound and
his perfection of technique made one
momentarily forget that they were not
listening to one of the old masters. A
touch delicate as a breath, and notes
complete in their perfection, gives the
harmony an inarticulate, unfathomable
speech, that leads to the edge of the
infinite" Mr.. Rice will be assisted nv

For recruiting the strength and spent
energies of men and women advanced in
years, there can be no substitute for
Paine's Celery Compound. 1t is the one
preparation considered worthy the name
of true nerve food and blood remedy by
physicians throughout the country. 1t is
prescribed by them in every state In the
Union to tone up the system, regulate the
nerves and restore health and strength
Nothing i'm the past has ever approached
it in power of building up weakened nerve
tissues and giving strength to the tired
body. 1t serves cases of persistent head
| aches, dyspepsia. neuralgia, and sleep
| lessness, due to nervous feebleness.
Paines's Celery Compound has record
of rapid and lasting cures that embraces
every city and town in the wide sweep of
the United States.
Its remarkable power over disease lies
in its active replacing of worn-out parts
by new, healthy ones, and its healing and
purifying action among the most minute
tissues of the body.
The heavy, alarming pain In the back
and loins disappears; the growing pale
ness, nervousness, and loss of flesh is
stopped, and a bright, buoyant feeling
gradually takes the place of that unend-
ing sense of tire and nervous depression.
An improved appetite. sound digestion.
uninterrupted sleep, and an energetic ner-
Vous condition invariably follow the use

That this remarkable immunity from
weakness and disease, at such a time in

a number of old chronic complaints, Mr.
Potter was induced by relatives to use
Paine's Celery Compound for the first

that he has since enjoyed dates from
that time. Mr.. Potter's grateful letter to
