FOR YEARS
Cattlemen of Beaver Discuss
Outlook.

Plenty of Forage to Winter

STOCK IS ROUNDING OUT

Kenton. o. T.. Oct. 81. A. Poole. one
of the big cattlemen of Beaver county,
in commenting on the cattle situation.
said:
THE range is best for years and cat
tie are rounding out in fine shape For
age crops are excellent and plenty OF
feed is assured for the winter. In fact.
we will have more than enough because
of the big movement of cattle to market
this season. Everybody wants to get out
of the COW business and handle steers
only and prepare tions are being made 10
ship the stuff on an extensive scale
Money matters are not too encouraging
and this will cause quite q lot OF young
steers to be marketed. Aged steers are
scarce and the big end of the supply OF
threes were bought up by the northwest
ern buyers. Big ranches and large herds
of cattle are going to be matter Oh
history, as the large number OF smali
stock raisers and farmers are coming
in and causing a contraction OF the range
And at the same time there are Just as
many cattle as usual on hand and they
are of much better kind. but in smaller
herds, so that everything is turning out
for the good of the country after all.

COOKED THE CURRENCY.
Built a Fire With the Purse in the
Oven.

Chandler, o. r., Oct. S-J. +. Jackson,
the north end barber. met with quite a
loss Monday by a peculiar accident.
On Sunday evening Mrs. Jackson went
to church Before leaving the house she
secreted a purse containing 4l in bills
and 81 in silver in the oven of the cook
stove.
ON Monday morning brisk fire was
used in preparing breakfast and no one
thought of the purse until after the meal
was eaten. Mr.. Jackson then said to
his wife that he would take the money,
which had been paid in after banking
hours Saturday, TO the bank to deposit
it. Investigations followed and the bills
were found to be burnedso black that the
figures were indistinguishable, though
they had not fallen to pieces. Mr.. Jack
son took them to the bank and the
cashier forwarded them for him to the
office Of the United States treasurer. but
he has little hope of finding that they
are of any value.
The silver proved its worth by coming
through the roast all right.

However, it is difficult fos such trip to
be made after the convening of congress.

YOU WILL BE ALL
SMILES AGAIN.
Forget Your Stomach and You'll Have
a Santa Claus Face.
HOW TO DO 1t.

If there is one thing more than all
Others that viii give man a forlorn
and friendless appearance and make him
morbid and cranky" and disagreeable
that thing is dyspepsia, 1t makes one
forget his friends and become morose
and irritable He is so wrapped up in
his own misery that he is incCnsiderate
of every one else Relieved Of this terri
BILE and depressing ailment, he again be-
comes a good fellow and a man among
men.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are beyond
question the most effective and popular
remedy ever offered to the sufferers Of
this terrible disease The thousands and
thousands of cures they have brought
about and the enormous increase Of their
sales fully attest the truth of this state
ment.
They are. above al, a nature remedy
They. possess exactly the same properties
that the gastric juices and other digest
i've fluids of the stomach possess. and
they actually DO the digestive work Of
the stomach ana enable that organ TO
rest and recuperate and become sound
and well They act in mild natural
manner. and cause no disturbance in
the digestive organs. They prevent any
fermentation of the food which causes
sour stomach In fact. under their in
fluence the subject forgets that he has a
stomach and his resulting cheerfulness
presents a great contrast to his former
detection
Millions OF boxes Of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets are sold annually ana they are
but in the dawn of their popularity Ev-
cry mail brings letters Of thanksgiving
from grateful ones who have been cured
Of this terrible disease. The following
