Letter From Rev. Eckel.

Rev. +. f. Eckel writes under date
of January IA, from Canon City, stat
ing that he had spent four days in that
town, and would spend next week in
Boulder county. He preached to the
prisoners in the state penitentiary last
Sunday morning, and in the evening
occupied the pulpit of the First Pres
byterian church. Mr.. Eckel states
that as yet he has secured no
settled field of labor for the future.
We learn from other sources that the
chief object of Mr.. Eckel'S visit to
Canon City was to assist in securing a
communication of sentence for man
now serving IA life term in the peni-
Tertiary. The mans name is Waller
and he was sent to the pentcntiary
from Boulder county few years since
for killing his son. There were some
mitigating circumstances connected
with the mans crime and Mr.. Eckel
and others have been working to Sc
cure a shortening of his sentence.

Thin

and all wrong, if too thin already.
Fat, enough for your habit, is
healthy; a little more, or less, is
no great harm. Too fat, consult
a doctor; too thin, persistently
thin, no matter what cause, take
SCOTS Emulsion of Cod Liver

There are many causes of get
ting too thin; they all come
under these two heads: over
work and under-digestion.
Stop over-work, if you can;
but, whether you can or not,
take SCOTS Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil, to balance yourself
with your work. You can't live
on it--true--but, by it, you
can. There's a limit, however;
you'll pay for it.
