THE REASON WHY.

Because it supplies
the strength to the
body to throw off the
cold and pre- v e n
IN pneumonia and con-
sumption. is why
phy6cians indor e
i Father Johns Medi-
cine for throat and
lung troubles. Its
nourishing qualities
furnish vitality by which the system is
able to ward off attacks of colds lit helps
the stomach to assimilate food and forces
nutrition into the blood. Not a patent
medicine, and free from weakening stlmu-
lants, alcohol or nerve-destroying and
poisonous drugs. We are able to guar
antee it because it has never failed to do
all that is claimed for it, during the so
years of its success, since it was pre-
scribed for the late Rev. Father John
o. Brien of Lowell, Mass, by whom 1t
was recommended and from whom II de-
rived its name.

EFFECTIVE EXERCISE.
May he Found in the Daily Duties
and Serve to Keep One
I'm Form.

In all effective exercise care must be
taken to hold the body in good poise, so
that a habit of dignified, efficient poise
is being established for general use.
Every exercise must be taken fully
throughout the entire body, and in
good order, beginning with full breath
ing and full motion, proceeding from
the chest TO the neck and head,
throughout the arms and hands and
all the muscles Of the body, to the legs
and feet, says Woman's Home Com
panion. Every motion, besides being
full. uninterrupted and gradually or
successfully well ordered throughout
the body. should also be naturally
rhythmical. That is to say, motion to
be good exercise should never Jar nor
jerk. 1t should be taken in time as
slow as seems instinctively comforta-
bic to the individual when the motion
Is oft-repeated.
The exercise Of our daily work when
taken vigorously, persistently and
with the thoroughgoing efficiency Of
fine motion will serve excellently to
keep our size normal. our "looks" well
"up TO the mark" ands our condition
generally capable and well and happy.

when it should have been and was
intended to be more In 1895 the
several laws on the statute books re-
lating to the incorporation of villages
were condified by the legislature. Sec
ton 1888 of HOwells' statutes speci-
fed the extent and population of a
district entitled to Incorporation. The
former maximum was one square mile,
or $40 acres. The number of inhabi-
tants was fixed at 800 persons. When
the laws were codified it was supposed
that the statements read in accord.
with this meaning.
Recently Representative Galbrath or
Calumet had occasion to look up the
method Of procedure for the incorpor-
alton of villages. He vas astounded
to discover that the statutes demand
ed that the village must have not less
that a square mile of territory. He
consulted an cider head for an explain
alton, repeating the statement Of the
statute. you have misread it," was
the comment; "the statute says not
more than a mile" Gilbraith stood
by the testimony of his yes and the
statute book was consulted. To the as

The Optic in the discharge of its
political duty opposed the election OF
Messrs. Spiess and Duncan.
1t did SO vigorously, but fairly and
manfully. 1t opposed the methods
used to insure their election.
Notwithstanding, they were elected,
received certificates and are now In
the legislative chambers, and are en-
titled to, and will have at The Optics
hands fair treatment. They represent
the people of San Miguel and Guada-
lupe counties and to them we must
look to uphold the interest of the
two counties, Of our institutions, and
that of northern New Mexico. II they
do this faithfully and efficiently due
credit should be given.
They will do well to look into coun-
Gil bill No. II.
That will bear strict scru-
tiny and much amendment.
1t carries too much weight and
seems to be too cumbersome. It
tries to do too much. For the time
being let the Territory conflne itself
t. our mineral production, instead of
spreading owe 81 much ground.
The analysis and classification of
soils, the collection of meteorological
data, the matter of elevations the
water resources of New Mexico. data
relating to animals, plants, the exami-
nation of prehistoric remains, ruins,
etc, and making maps relating there
to. are all well enough, but this class
of investigation and effort will cost
more than hat which relates only to
minerology. The Territory is poor
and let us not at a single bound at
tempt too much. Confine the work of
the geologist now, to that which will
most develop u mineral resources,
add 10 our wealth as a mining country.
Two years hence. or later after this
initial work is well under way. add to
it as Territorial funds will allow.
"Vaulting ambition oft DER leaps
itself" In trying to do too much, we
often fail altogether.
Let us hold down to a single object
now-the development of our mineral
wealth.
Our councilmen should look into
this measure and all others OF impor-
lance to the public.
To them only in the present assem-
bly, a the people of San Miguel ap-
