A Flying Hotel.

"The Golden State Limited" ;" recently
placed in service between Chicago and
California by the Rock Island System, is
beyond doubt the most practical train
ever constructed. Bath rooms, barber
shop, library, dining service, electric
lights, electric fans-in fact every con-
trivance imaginable.
The Rock Island was the first line to
establish low excursion rrates between
the east and Colorado, and the officials
will not cease to expound every effort to
continue to increase the popularity of its
resorts. With this in view, it will not be
surprising to see in the very near future
such trains as the Colorado Flyer" and
the ''Rocky Mountain Limited" similarly
equipped.
One thing is certain, there is never
anything better than the Rock Island
Service, and its dining car system is in
comparable.

A disordered stomach may cause no
end of trouble. When the stomach fails
to perform its functions the bowels be-
come deranged, the liver and kidneys
congested, causing numerous diseases,
the most fatal of which are painless aud
therefore the more to be dreaded. The
important thing is to restore the stom-
ache and liver to a healthy condition,
and for this purpose no better prepara-
ton can be used than Chamberlain's
Stomach and Liver Tablets. For sale

Ben Martelon feels so good over the
little boy that arrived at his house the
other day that he claims jurisdiction in
every part of the county. Ben is a good
natured, energetic fellow and has host
of friends who will be pleased at the
news that we are to have more Martelons.
A box of good Havsnas inspired a por-
tion of this but had they been stogas we
could not righteously have refrained
from saying these true things about Ben.
Mrs. Martelon is also being congratu-
lated and deserves to be.

1t begins to look as if the K. c. BIS,
the new select team of Idaho Springs,
possessed some pretty good material.
In test game between this club and a
picked one from the city Sunday after
noon the K. C's carried off the tal1ies to
the tune of I6 to 9. That isn't exactly
the proper ration but they captured it
without the aid or consent of any other
team on earth.
A good-sized crowd witnessed the
game-a sort of opener for the season.
and admired the playing, The full nine
innings were put up and considering the
fact that it was the initial game the field
work, work in the box and everything
was good on both sides. Cooper and
Evans did good work and Minsmer and
Tyler were also well on but perhaps lack
ing little in the practice and curves
necessary to victory. The two teams
