Wool Growers, Attention.

We have the very best facilities for ham
ding, storing and marketing your wool.
Just having completed $4,000 fire-proof
brick building in Reno conclusiyely proves
that We are in the business 10 stay.
1t has been pfoyen, beyond the shadow
OF a doubt, that, where large quantities OF
wool are offered, better prices are obtain
able. This was demonstrated last season
by the Baldwin Land and Cattle Company
OF Hay Creek, Oregon, and by other con-
Germs in various settions,
We have three quarters Of million
pounds of wool now pledged US, and upon
tho accumulation Of 100000 pounds or
more, we will have well advertised sales.
This will bring purchasers to this market
who have never been In this field before,
thereby, through competitive bidding
getting better prices for woods than could
possibly be obtained otherwise
We will make advances on wool up to
three quarters Of its market value, thus
putting you on good financial footing
without lessening your chcnces of receiv-
ing highest prices.
Don't ship your wool to San Francisco
or sell to " one man" purchasers, and be
at the mercy OF a few spectators, but
consign to us and let the wool be sold on
Its merits.
We especially invite the wool growers To
an inspection OF our plant. Give us trial
shipment and be convinced OF our asser-
lions.

A DOCTORS EXPERIENCE.
Medicine Not Needed in This Case.

1t is hard to convince some people
that coffee does them an injury, They
lay their bad feelings to almost every
cause but the true and unsupported one.
But the doctor knows; his wide eX-
perience has proven TO him that to some
systems coffee is an insidious poison
that undermines the health.
Ask the doctor if coffee is the cause
of constipation, stomach and nervous
troubles.

life. am now forty-two years old. and
when taken sick two years ago with

A WRESTLING BOUT
Young Charles Snyder Vic
tim of Painful Accident.
Operation Performed and He VIII Live
Had Driven Half-Mile Over Coun-
try Roads to His Home.

With his neck broken, Charles snyder
q s;vteen-vear-o boy was carried in an
old wagon over rough road for nall
mile Yesterday, to his home, where an
oneration was performed which saved
his life.
SNYDER. who lives at 1907 Gales Street
northeast. had been over near bennlne
with Edward Dorr. who resides on the
Benning Road. and while returning home
during the afternoon the two began
skylarking. When near Eighteenth
Street northeast the boys started to
wrestle. and after tussling for some rev
minutes. Dorr. by quick movement
threw his companion.
Both fell heavily to the ground, and as
Dorr started to arise he discovered that
Snyders body was limp, and he was un-
able to speak. Every effort was made
to rouse him from his stupor, but with
out avail. The boy could not rise and
was unable to even lift his head.
Fortunately. Dorr had the presence OF
mind to hail a passing wagon, and with
the assistance of the driver the lad was
lifted tenderly into the vehicle. He was
still unconscious, and remained In this
condition until his home was reached,
twenty minutes later.
AS he was being carried into the house
DR.. G. w Warren. of 1912 H Street
northwest, who had been making call
on a neighbor, noticed the condition OF
the boy. 1t was apparent that his neck
was broken. After a casual examination
within the house the physician was con-
firmed in his first opinions.
Snyder soon regained consciousness.
and is out of danger. There is every in
dication that he will be up and about in
a few days, none the worse for his ex-
pericnce.
