"Some years ago was afflicted with sun

Gus system and exceedingly poor health. l
suffered terribly with pain in my head, the
top of my head would feel hot. could not
study, and after striving for two years to
wear the trouble off, was compelled to give
up my pastoral labor and retire to my farm
where I spent nearly two years trying to re-.
cuperate. 1t was all of no avail. Physicians
treatment and patent medicines failed to re,
lieve me. I was exceedingly nervous and
irritable and sometimes would shake terribly.
l could not bear any noise. At the least ex-
element the blood would rush to my face
and head. Two years ago l was induced to

Argo where the largest shelters in the
world arc located. From the train we
eau see Pixies Peak and a number of
other high peaks in the state. We
reached Golden, the entrance to the
canon where the first capital Of the state
was located, which has the state school
of mines, Industrial School for boys,
gold smclter etc. Now we enter Clear
which the clear water is tumbing, foam
ing and rolling over the rocks, the
scenery is not surpassed by many places
in the state. There arc many interest
ing points along this line. The railroad
was first built to furnish an outlet to the
gold mines. The first discovery OF gold
in the Rocky Mountains was made at
Idaho Springs. Mining camps are num-
crous in Clear Creek canon and have
produced S100,000,00O in gold and large
quantities Of silver and copper.
Idaho Springs is the largest town on
the Loop trip and before reaching it the
train passes mills for the reduction of
gold, hot mineral springs, and is an inn
portant health resort and is said to be
the prettiest mountain town in the
United States. 1t is surrounded on all
sides by towering peaks many Of which
winter, cool brcezes waiting down from
the mountain peaks make it a desirable
! place for people seeking health, nesting
close in the mountains it escapes the
SHOWS of winter. Trains have never
been delayed in this canon and the snow
! plough has never been used on this line.
Many points of interest can be reached
from Idaho Springs. The trip to Bell
| view mountain was made famous by the
late Horace Greeley, Generals Grant,
Sherman and Sheridan. Other points
are the glaciers up Fall river, Devils
Slide Balanced Rock and Grandfather
Table. Will mention some Of the peaks
that are over $4,000 feet in elevation.
Big Chief, Nit. Rosalic, Gray's Peak and
several other higher point sthan Pike S
Peak. These great peaks form part OF
the Continental divide separating the
Atlantic from the Pacific. A number OF
beautiful lakes lie near Idaho Springs
which abound in mountain trout, and
the tunnels there are among the largest
mining undertakings in the world. Some
when completed will be five miles in
length.
Farther up the canon from Idaho
Springs we reach Georgetown; between
the two places is the high bridge and
the famous loop. Silver Plume, short
: distance from Georgetown, is at the enc
of the trip. Returning to Denver il
: the evening we all felt greatly pleased
with the trip and after taking a short
rest and eating a hearty supper we die
some shopping in one of the large de
I. partment stores Of the city after which
several of the party listened to some
nice talks and good music furnished b.
$ members Of the Salvation Army. Sun

ALL WRONG
The Mistake is Made by Many Leon
Citizens.

Don't mistake the cause of backache
To be cured you must know the cause
1t is wrong to imagine relief is cure
Backache is kidney ache
You must cure the kidneys
A Leon resident tells you how it can be
done:
Miles Martindale living in the south
west part of town says: Last winter l
came home from days work and was
taken with chills and fever. Since then
my kidneys have bothered me. The
secretions from those organs contained
a sediment, were full Of acid, scalded,
pain existed in the loins and kidneys
and during the day if l stopped sharp
twinges were my reward and at night |
was unable to straighten if even sat
still in chair for short time. | tried
everything which came to my notice in
the shape of medicine but l really think
was growing worse instead Of better
Finally deciding to try Doan's Kidney
Pills, l went to l.. P. Van Werden's drug
store for box. They brought better
results than any other medicine | ever
tried. They stopped the backache and
corrected the action OF the kidney Sc,
cretions. l consider this preparation
very valuable

and listened to beautiful and impress

The Death penaIty,

A little thing sometimes results in
death. Thus mere scratch, insigniti-
cant cuts or puny boils have paid the
death penalty. 1t is wise to have
Bucklens Arnica Salve ever handy.
It's the best Salve on earth and will
prevent fatality, when Burns, Sores, and
Piles threaten. Only 25c, at L. p. Van
Werden's Drug Store.

ming out on timely hits. Both Thompson
and Webster were in fine form and received
great support from their respective teams,

was as much Of surprise to
MIN as 1t was to the spectators.

ing terrific speed and retiring the last two
