Baby VS.. Pine Nuts.

A stirring poker game took place in
front of the fire. house last Sunday.
Mary Ann put up her four months old
baby in its willow basket against three
sacks of pine nuts owned by Lame
SUSIE" The game waged fast and
furious, while the assembled Indians
watched the outcome with increasing
eagerness. For time it looked as if
Mary Ann would be the victor, but
tickle fortune decided that "Lame
Susie' should keep her pine nuts and
become an adopted mother. The game
over, Mary Ann left in disgust, while
Susie loaded up her pine nuts and new
ly won child and staggered up the hill
beneath her load, gladdened by the
shrill cries of another weman's child.
Mary Ann parted with the child with
out whimper, not even sigh of re-
greet Such is the nature of an Indian.
She is known as great gambler among
the Indians, but this last game sur
passes them all. Asked in regard to
her losing, she remarked, mo heap
pine nuts, heap pappoose. III Bridge

The vote between Bray and Ring is
very close. Figures in this Office with
three precincts in Nye county to hear
from give Bray l5 majority. 1t looks
like Bray is elected on the face
of the returns. We feel confident
that the three precincts to hear from
in Nye county will give Bray major
ity of at least ten votes. We believe
Bray is elected by a majority of be-
tween twenty-five and forty. How
ever, the vote is so close it may take
an official count to settle the question.

Owing to the backward spring in
Nevada this year, there is shortage
in the turkey crop. The Reno Gazette
says turkeys are being shipped to this
market and bring from IS to 20 cents
per pound live weight. Chickens are
more plentiful, but owing to the scar
city of turkeys the price has advanced
from Ii to 10 cents per pound. Nevada
is not the only section of the West like
affected, as is apparent from the fact
that every day large shipments of tur-
keys live and dressed, pass through
from Kansas en- route for California,
thus showing the shortage there.

Catarrh usually starts with cold in the head and If left unchecked in this climate, rarely gets well of itself
 As fresh cold Is taken the disease spreads, getting deeper and deeper, creep ing along the mucous membranes from nose to throat, from throat to windpipe, from windpipe to bronchial tubes and from bronchial tubes to lung cells
 The mucous membranes all connect, one with another. Hence 1t Is easy to spread from one part to another lined with this same membrane This is why catarrh in the head soon affects the throat and finally the stomach itself. bringing on chronic catarrh of the stomach, which is a most obstinate form of dyspepsia
 Everybody is now well agreed that ca- tarrh is a blood disease and not a local one, and the attempt to cure by local applications simply gives temporary re- lief from the purely local symptoms without the remotest effect in staying the progress of the disease
 There is a new preparation recently of- fered to the public that is apparently de- stined to do away with every other form of catarrh treatment.
 This new remedy is not a new secret patent medicine. but is a large. pleasant tasting tablet composed of Bloodroot, Red gum from the Eucalyptus tree, and other valuable and harmless specifies. which are taken internally and seem to have a remarkably beneficial effect upon the blood and mucous membranes. ap- parently eliminating the catarrh poison from the whole system.
 These tablets, while being pleasant, con venient and absolutely safe to use have made cures in long standing cases of ca tarrh that are little short of marvellous. They are sold by druggists under name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and any ca- tarrh sufferer who has tried inhalers. lotions, ointments, salves. etcs, and req lize their inconvenience and uselessness will fully appreciate the difference be- tween a mere palative and a permanent cure after giving Stuarts Catarrh Tab lets an impartial trial.
 All druggists sell them at 50 cents for full sized package and no matter where the catarrh is located, in the head, throat, lungs or stomach, Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets will surprise you with the effective result of even few days use.
