It Goes Right to the Spot.

When pain or irrigation exists on any part of the body, the application of Ballard's Snow Liniment will give prompt relief. It goes right to the spot, said an old man who was rubbing it in. to cure his rheumatism. c. R. Smith, Propr. Smith House, Tenaha, Texas, writes: have used Ballard's g Snow Liniment in my family for sev- eral years, and have found it to be a fine remedy for all aches and pains, and recommend it for pains in the throat and chest. 25c, soc and IS at H.

Cause of lockiaw.

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a bacillus or germ which exists plenti. fully in street dirt. It is inactive so long as exposed to the air, but when carried beneath the skin, as in the wounds caused by percussion caps or by rusty nails, and when the air is ex- cluded the germ is reused to activity and produces the most virulent poison known. These germs may be destroy ed and all danger of lockjaw avoided by applying Cham berlain's Pain Balm freely as soon as the injury is received. Pain Balm is an antiseptic and causes cuts, bruises and like injuries to heal without maturation and in one third the time required by the usual treat ment. It is for sale by H. H. Watkins, druggist.

A sale of the Golden Culver group of mines, situated in the Mineral Hill mining district, sixteen miles north east of Florence, was consum mated this week, through the agency of c. G. Werner, of Los Angeles, and the first payment on the property made. This is the group of mines owned for fifteen years past by the editor of the Blade and Edmond Bouviolle. There are eleven claims in the group, and we have done about l,OJO feet of work on them. There are no stronger or better defined veins in the country than are those upon which these claims are To- cated. In fact they are phenominal in this respect. The surface ores of these veins are low-grade, but the magnitude of the ore chutes exposed will enable the owner to extract the ore at pro. fit. The contained metallic values are lead, silver, gold and copper. Work will be commenced ou the property at once and five thousand pound sam. pie, made up from smaller samples taken from the entire group of eleven claims, will be shipped and tested to determine the most successful process for the treatment of the ore. As soon as this test can be made a reduction plant will be installed and sufficient force of miners will be put on at the several claims to keep the plant sup piled with ore. There is enough ore in sight now to keep large-sized plant in operation for many years. This property will bring Mineral Hill to the front and little later on that district will be full of life and business. The camp will greatly benefit Florence in business way as this place will be headquarters for the mining compan- ies of the disrrict.-Floreuce Blade.

Grim Oom Paul Kruger, tragic wan- derer from the Transvaal, is in lonely retirement at Mentone, France. He wears a somewhat smart frock coat and black trousers, and the familiar stovepipe hat, bound with heavy black crepe, and walks with cane. A DO liceman disperses the bearers of cam eras in front of the villa when the former president enters the house daily, about noon, after a morning spent in the garden. The old man is by no means decrepit and looks in good health. He prefers the company of his own thoughts to intercourse with strangers.

DAMAGED by Flax witt.

Professor Manns, assistant in the
department of botany at the North Da-
kota agricultural college, has returned
from trip over Cass county. and finds
there Is lot of diseased flax. The
damage by flax wilt will run from 10
to 80 per cent. In one field that had
been in fax four consecutive years he
found the loss will be almost total.
The soil is thoroughly permeated with
the flax wilt and it will take some
years to graduate it by farming the
land to cultivate crops Professor
MAINS reports some progress in the
development of the immune flax. The
work is necessarily slow, but the re-
suits of the investigation and expert
ments are so far encouraging and he
expects ultimately that the college
will succeed in the development of an
immune plant. One result of the pro-
fessor's investigations was to demon
strate the beneficial effects of the for.
malin treatment for seed flax before
seeding. In fields that had been prop
erly treated and on land that had not
been in flax last year the evidences of
flax wilt were very small. The effects
are so pronounced that the farmers
will more generally take advantage of
It next spring.

A woMAN's COMPLEXION.

1t is rank foolishness to attempt to re-
move sallowness or greasiness of the
skin by the use of cosmetics: or ''local"
treatment as advocated by the beauty
doctors" The only safe and sure way
that woman can improve her com
plexion is by purifying and enriching
the blood, which can only be accomplish
ed by keeping the liver healthy and
active. The liver is the seat of disease
and blood God pollution; Or Green's ,as august
and enriches the blood, purifes the COM
plexion. 1t also cures constipation,
biliousness, nervousness. and induces re-
freshing sleep. A single bottle of August
Flower has been known to cure the most
pronounced and distressing cases of
dyspepsia and indigestion. New trial
