such letters as these. There can be
no more convincing proof that Duffys
Pure Malt Whiskey is the only abso-
lutely pure, invigorating stimulant and
tonic to be used exclusively in all
cases where the system needs to be
sustained.
The doctors. as we'll ms the people,
have learned that IL does not pay to fill

what the system wants is a tonic and

This distressing affection, known

the spinal cord occurring usually in
middle life, between thirty and fifty
years of age, but sometimes in chill
dren as young as ten or twelve years.
1t is believed to be due primarily to
some constitutional trouble, but is
brought on often by exposure to
changes of weather, by physical or
mental overwork. and by whatever de-
presses the general health. II Is said
that railroad men and others who
travel much are prone to suffer from
this disease. Men are affected more
often than women. The first sign of

hIexioan's Experience with a Herd OF
Antelope.

hIexioan's Experience with a Herd Of
Antelope.
A Mexican freighter whose route
lies across the deserts of New Mexico
and Arizona and who is. known as
Juan Riviera has many tales to tell OF
e5ventures he has had
during his trips scross the sands. AL
though considered to be as truthful as
the ordinary man by his acquaintances.
some Of his stories would indicate that
he occasionally departs from the path
of rectitude or else the road he travels
must be a veritable paradise for hunt
ers. One of his "reminiscences is as
follows: while passing from Chi
huahua to Tucson, some fifteen years
ago. I encountered great herd, prob
ably thousand, of antelope, and this
accounts for the loss of my foreanger.
which you see is lacking two joints.
This herd was not far from box
canyon, having very narrow entrance
when l first saw 1t. BY riding to and
fro, succeeded after an hour in get
ting them to enter the canyon, but as
the entrance was narrow | could get
them In only one at time. After los
ing considerable time l got them all
In. To keep them cooped up, began
to pile up stones at the opening, In
tending to leave the antelopes there
and notify my friends Of the catch.
While at work the antelopes suddenly
turned on me and began to rush out.
There was not time enough to bar the
opening, so l grabbed my kHife ana
stabbed them as they came out. Ante
lope are much like sheep. and follow
their leader and came rushing through
30 rapidly that my arm was kept In
motion like the crank shaft on wind
mill. wore out the knife. then the
handle, and was so excited that kept
on jabbing with my foreinger until
had worn 1t down to one joint. i
