Between the ages of fifteen and forty. five,
the time when womanhood begins and
motherhood ends, it is estimated that the
aggregate term of woman's suffering is ten
years. Ten years out of thirty One third
of the best part of a womAn's life sacrihcedl
Think of the enormous loss of time! But
time is not all that is lost. Those years of
suffering steal the bloom from the cheeks
the brightness from the eyes, the fairness
from the form. They write their record in
many crease and wrinkle. What boon
then to woman, is Dr. Pierce's Favorte
Prescription. 1t promotes perfect regularity,
dries up debilitating drains, heals liberation,
cures female weakness, and establishes the
delicate womanly organs in vigorous and
permanent health. No other medicine can
do for woman what is done by DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription.

A VAST SALT FIELD.
How the Product Is Obtained In the
Middle of the Colorado Desert.


Middle Of the Colorado Desert.
In the middle OF The Colorado desert,
q little TO the north OF the Mexican
border and 2G4 feet below the level of
the sea. les a field OF crystalliZcd salt
more Than Il -thouSaGd acres in extent,
presenting a surface rs white as snow
and beneath the monday glare of the
sun so dazzling that the naked eye
cannot stand its radiance. 1t stretches
away FOR miles and miles about Salton,
Colo. an ocean OF blazing, DliSterinG
white.
Here daily throughout the year men
are at work OyCrturning the great de-
post with massive p!ows and Scrapers,
getting il into great piles preliminary
TO putting it through the refining proc
ess. The salt plOwS used 10 secure the
harvest are great four wheeled imple-
ments driven by steam and managed
by two men. The salt crust is thrown
up in parallel ridges; then laborers
with hoes work it 10 and fro in the
water, washing out the dirt prclim-
mary to stacking it in mounds to be
taken to the mill.
Salt springs in adjacent foothills ere
constantly contributing TO the deposit,
and so heavily laden are they with al
most pure salt that the plOw has hardly
passed on before Il new crust has
formed in the IurrOw left. This fact
renders it unnecessary to operate more
than a small portion of the vast de-
post.
As may be supposed, work in these
fields is performed under the Eost try
ing conditions. No white man can
stand the intense heat, and for this
reason the work is done wholly by
Japanese and by COahuila Indians. OF
these the Indians are by far the better
adapted TO the work, the japanese per-
forming only one portion, sewing the
sacks in which the salt is shipped. The
atmosphere, laden as it is with parti-
cles of salt, gives rise to q painful
thirst, and the only available drinking
water comes from a single well. 1t is
warm and i'll tasting.
Beautiful mirages frequently appear
above the great salt field in the day
time, sky pictures of magnificent cities
and flower dotted, tree shaded fields.
The moonlight, too. produces won
drously beautiful effects upon the
great field of cleaning salt. For sew
eral weeks in the year the thermome-
ter on the salt field averages 140 de-
grees, and the reflection of the sun
produces Il glare like that from fur
mace. The deposits vary in thickness
from ten to twenty inches and form
n solid crust over the great marsh. 1t
is estimated that about 700 tons are
now plowed up daily.-New York Trib-
une.

The buyer occupies position OF con-
sequence in the stockyarGS community.
He is an expert, usually Z man OF mid
Tile age, who has obtained his ed0ca-
ton aud technical ability partly in the
packing houses and partly on the ranch.
An experienced buyer is likely to re-
ccive salary of $1,000 to $1,000
year. and he is worth all of that, for on
his ability to tell by a moments in
spection what quality of beef Will be
produced by steer that he never be-
fore laid eyes on depends primarily the
excellence OF the product issued by his
house and hence the increase OF its
business.
The BUYERS work is not arduous, and
to all appearance his task is a simple
one. He walks along the fat board
laid along the top of tn" fence. glanc-
ing keen!y at ire cattle in the different
pens. Some he passes by without i
pause. others he stops to inspect more

his interest in group by asking a
question or two of the man in charge.
Long experience enables him at 4
glance to distinguish between grass
fed steer and corn fed steer, to de-
eide whether an animal is entitled to

given to River View yesterday. was the
most successful ever given by the associa-

but even that large fleet proved insufficient.
and the services of the steamer River
