Pharmacy q Mistake.

All the drugs we have poured down
our throats in the past days to cor
rect alterations Of our physical sys-
tenn have been wasted, says Thomas
A. Edison. That's what Mary b.
ker Eddy tells us, too. With science
and religion united on this point,
which is the only point where they
have united, we must begin to regret
all thoae quinine capsules, those
lozenges, pills and powders, and
brown colored liquids that at differ
ent times and periods have made Us
unhappy inwardly and often temper
amentally uncomfortable outwardly.
Every new discovery Of bacteria
shows us all the more convincingly,
says Edison, that we have been
wrong, and that the millions of tons
of stuff we have taken was all use
less. Surgery, diet and antiseptics,
these three are the vital things Of
the future in the preservation Of the
health Of humanity. II We can be.
lleve this is true, it relieves us great
ly. We can subscribe to Mrs. Eddy's
easy and inexpensive remedy and
take the think cure for everything
but broken leg. There has, it is
true, sprung up school Of physi-
clans who contend that they can do
the thinking for you at 30 much per
think, but any strong minded person
may do his own if he will. The
thought cure for disease requires q
continuous or frequent recurrent ap.
plication Of the mind to the seat Of
the affliction. It stands to reason
that with boil ON the back Of your
neck you can think of it oftener and
with a more solicitous regard and an
intensity of emotion, coupled with q
desire for its departure, than some
absent practitioner who is dividing
his attentions to you with case Of
scarlet fever, a rheumatic knee and a
cataract Of the eye. It has long been
conceded that warts are singularly
responsive to cerebration, and that
they do miraculously disappear un-
der certain incantations; and it is
strange that it has never occurred to
thoughtful persons to apply the same
methods to boils and Affections of q
kindred nature. Too much atten.
ton has been given to burdock poul
tices in this matter and too little to
the compelling power of the intel
lect.-Ex.

matter upon which all the people OF

to make thin book.
The ponderous tones in which
have been expressed the whims and

the schemes and gratis of the men,
bers of past assemblies, with both
houses in more or less harmony, will
have no duplicates this time. The

we can make them suggestion that

mains the constitution of the state

much neglected of late, and worthy
of the study of those interested in
the affairs of the state. More of the

Election Frauds.

Testimony is now being unearthed
at two lawyers offices in Denver con
cerning the recent election frauds.
This evidence is for uee before the
committee of the legislature wher
the contest cases come up in that
body. 1t would be amusing if il
were not so serious and if such vita
principals were not involved.
In one Office in which the Repub
lican contestants are preparing theil
evidence there have been men who
have told of bare faced frauds il
which they took part. One man, fol
example, told how some hundreds oi
ballots had been marked the nigh,
before and when the only republican
Judge was at dinner the box wa,
opened and about 200 bogus ballot,
were stuffed in. Other evidence
equally damaging and damning wal
presented.
In the other sffice, where the dem
ocrats are taking testimony to enable
them to hold their seats, something
akin to farce comedy is being enact
ed all the while. Witness after wit.
ness is brought forward to testify
that the election was conducted hon.

How to Prevent Group.

1t will be good news to mothers OF

be prevented. The first sign Of Group is
hoarseness. A day or two before the at

Give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
freely as soon as the child becom es
hoarse, or even after the rough cough
appears, and it will dispel all symptoms
of Group. In this way all danger and
anxiety may be avoided. This remedy
is used by many thousands OF mothers
and has never been known to fail. It is
in fact, the only remedy that can al
