You could not live an hour without
iron in your blood
You could not get the benefit Of one
breath OF air without this same iron.
The blood runs the circuit Of the
body every three minutes, and when
ii reaches the lungs each atom Of iron
takes two atoms Of oxygen back with
.it to keep the fires Of life going. This
oxygen destroys waste matter and
helps to restore your wasted tissues.
If your blood lacks iron you lack
that much Of life; you fail that muck
to keep up the needed repair Of your
bodies-that is. you get run down and
sick. This accounts for the life-givlng
properties of Dr. Hartor's hon Tonic,
1t supplies iron, and to do that is to
restore the full bodybuilding power to
the blood This iron has peculiar
nfe-quickening function; vitality goec
down whenever any proportion Of the
iron is lacking vigor and strength re
turn just as surely when this element
/ Is restored.
Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic helps sick
or tired out people quickest because II
contains the particular blood-makns
and strengthening form Of iron that
the system needs. This remedy puci
aes and enriches the blood, 1t IT
creases the activity of the stomach
liver and kidneys. 1t overcome ner
vousness and builds up vitality anc
strength. It agrees with the mosi
delicate and deserves your confidence
because it has been doing all these
things for forty-five years. Prepared

to no great land opening Of the. past
has there been more speculation and
more erroneous statements ttan in
regard to the opening Of the Kiowa

Nearly all who have written con
cerning them nave stated their merits
and have omitted their demerits, have
Rrged emigration under all circum-
stances. ED have even gone so far as
to characterize tie new country as
"the land of the gods, the Eldorado
of the West"
The fact is the omanche country
like all other places has It's adyant.
ages and it's Disadvantage. The soil
is very fertile but the rainfall is not
always sufficient.
The exact manner of opening no one
knows. Various methods have been
proposed but as yet none have been
adopted, The old horse racing meth.
cd, opening without previous notice,
drawing and various other methods
each have their advocates. It is re-
ported shat the secretary of the in
terror favors opening by drawing, but
whether or not the government can
make good titles to the land In case
another person than the one who has
drawn It, should be the first occupant
is questioned.
No difference in what way the land
is opened all applicants viii have to
possess the following qualifications
required by the general homestead
\ law Must be 21 years Of age or the
head of family. must not own more
than 100 acres of land elsewhere, ant
suDiect to exceptions must not pre-
viously have made homestead entry
The time Of the opening Is unknown
The survey of hte country and the
work Of alloting lands to the Indians
must first be completed. The Rocl
Island railroad has the contract t'
survey the country, which it hal
agreed to complete on June lst. The
countrT will open some time before
