This is the caption of j communi-
ton from Representative Newlands
which appeared lately in the New
York Times. II is an exhaustive
treatise upon the general subject OF
irrigation, its history, which dates
back to the earliest period OF civil
cation, and which is practiced to-day
In more than half OF the World. Al
though OF course it was intended
more especially for the Information
and enlightenment of Eastern read
ers, it CONTAINS great deal of mat
ter which would be interesting TO
people ia the arid and semi-arid sec
ons who have made close and intel.
ligent study OF the subject. The
scope which the writer gives TO the
subject is broader and more elabor-
ate than anything of the kind that
we have ever seen in .print, IL facts,
figures and accompanying comments,
and will unquestionably have favor
able effect upon the irrigation legis-
lation now pending in Congress.
In referring to the alleged danger
of disastrous competitiop with the
existing farms in the East aud West,
Mr.. Ncw.ands says in part: =" 1t has
only to be borne in mind that the en-
tire area capable Of reclamation does
not exceed 60, 900, 900 acres, and that
this area will only equal the area 81
the two States OF Iowa and Illinois.
II nation of q few million people
did not suffer from the development
of Iowa and Illinois, how can it be
contended for moment that coun-
try with 80 millions OF people can
suffer from the development of the
arid region?'

PEOPLE OVER THEIR FRIGHT.
Shower of Ashes No Longer Scares
 Inhabitants of Mexico.

Mexico City, October 2s.-The latest news from the southern part of the re- public Is that the people are less alarmed over a shower of ashes than at first when the sun became obscured at midday. At this time 1t was feared a catastrophe was about to occur. In some places rain has come, and was most welcome, as it cleared the atmosphere. Subterranean noises are heard at Tuxtla, Gutierrez and this phenomenon appears to be general in the district where ashes fell There were up to Saturday forty-five distinct shocks of earthquake at San Cristobal. l' Palenque advices are that no change can be observed from there in the shape of San Juan mountain, but loud and pro- longed explosions are frequently heard. Ashes fell all day yesterday. Scientific men in Tabasco say that the force re- quired to precipitate such an immense quantity of ashes over so extensive a territory would be equal to SOO,OO0 horse 1 power.
 The Indians say that the Mountain Huistprec is in eruption, but this is not 1 confirmed

ABSORBING PROBLEM
Of the Present. paY.

The absorbing problem of today is, how 10 expend one's income so as to attain the best results; that is. get full value for one's money.
 It may truthfully be said that this has been, is and always will be an absorbing problem to those with limited means; but the fact remains that, with the price of living necessities constantly rising one must husband ones resources more care fully than ever before if he would live within his income. In saying that prices are rising, we except one article which has come to occupy prominent place in the family medicine closet, and that is the specific for piles or hemorrhoids known as Pyramid Pile Cure; this remedy is still sold by druggists at the old prices of fifty cents and one dollar, and these prices will remain unchanged. Those to whom this preparation has brought re- lief and a cure after years of suffering do not need to be told of it's merits others are advised that 1t Is the greatest boon ever discovered, to all those af- flicted with any form of piles; 1t is in suppostory form, is easily applied, reaches the seat of the complaint, and gives immediate relief and a lasting cure
 The reader may have tried salves, oint- ments and lotions without benefit, and feeling that his money has been wasted, resolves to SuIer on ratneT than eXperl- ment farther. The reason for the failure of these treatments is, that they do not reach the seat of the trouble, and hence do not remove the cause, as does Pyra- mid Pile Cure A little book describing piles, their cause ana cure, Is pub lished by the Pyramid Drug Co.,, Mar shall, Mich. and anyone may procure a copy by sending name and address to above firm. As showing the estimation in which this remedy Is held by the pub lie it may interest the reader to know that it's sales now exceed those of all other pile remedies combined.
