THE MISSISSIPPI RIVER.

Its source is in Lake Itasca,
Supported by many brook;
Its channel, extending Southwark,
Is filed with many crook.
Its body, though weak at beginning,
And extending very, very long,
With its many arms extended,
At last becomes very strong.
Its banks, though two in number,
Are dotted with cities and towns,
All busy with merchandise and lumber
Its current to carry down.
Great steamers puff and throw out foam,
Its pillows do surge and swell,
While its banks howl and groan,
Yet 4 secret they never tell.
Through a broad and beautiful country,
Onward, he makes his way,
Signing, rejoicing, sorrOwing,
Continuing both night and day.
g'ill at last it reaches the ocean,,
Where its secrets it does tell,
BY the little sands and pebbles,
Brought from glade and dell.

Notice to Advertisers.

By actual count, as delivered to subscribers by their respective car riers, the circulation of THE OAsIs in Nogales exceeds that of the Vidette by more than double-the exact ratio being as 225 are to 100. in favor of THE OASIS.
 By weight at the post office and express office the outside circula- tiou of TIE OASIS exceeds that of the Vidette in quadruple or quin- tuple ratio, TIE OASIS paying postage upon sixty-five pounds of papers each week, while the Vi- dette's postage bills do not exceed twenty pounds per week, besides which TIE OASIS pays express charges on papers sent to many subscribers through that method of transportation.
 These are facts which advertisers wish to know in determining the value of any newspaper for ad- vertlsIng purposes.
 While stating the above facts for advertisers 1t is also approp- riate to say for public information that THE OASIS pays three times as much money in taxes as does the Vidette, and that its pay roll IS nearly or quite double that of its contemporary. The promulgation of these facts has been rendered necessary by recent public occur ences.

A GOOD RECOMMENDATION.

"I have noticed that the sale on Chamberlain's Stomach & Liver Tablets is almost invariably to those who have once used them" " says Mir. J. H. Weber, a prominent druggist of Cascade, Iowa. What better recommendation could any medicine have than for people to call for it when again in need of such a remedy? Try them when you feel dull after eating, when you have bad taste in your mouth, feel bilious, have no appe- tite or when troubled with consti- patton, and you are certain to be delighted with the prompt relief which they afford.
