Up to a few years ago I felt no need to
test its medicinal potency, but lately when
my system needed it, your Peruna relieved
me of many catarrhal troubles. Some two

away down to 165 pounds, and besides loss
of flesh l was subject to stomach troubles,
Indigestion, loss of appetite, insomnia,

my entire system out of order. During

There are few men IN Denver whom
Polly Pry treats 80 considerably as
the owners of the Post. There are
few men in Denver according to the
judgement of large proportion of
the newspaper people of the state,
whom she should treat with that con-
tempt which every man or woman
must feel for couple of blackguards.
who branded her as liar before the
people of the entire state. Everybody
knows that the Polly Pry interview
with Vincent st. John. published in
the Post was true; they know also
that the POSTS proprletors acted like
poltroons when they repudiated the
interview, but equally we'll do the
people know that Mrs. Anthony does
not seem to want to settle the account

I'm a New Form.

The readers of The Sentinel will observe
that the paper today appears in an enlarged
form. This is the beginning only of a number
of changes which will be made in the paper
and the office. This paper will be printed after
today on of the largest improved Cranston
newspaper presses, shipped direct from the fac
tory, and which has been installed in the new
press room of this paper, the same being one
of the finest press belonging to any
newspaper in Colorado.
All of the machinery will be moved into the
new quarters and the owners of the paper hope
to fully meet the demands of this section
for a live strictly up-to-date newspaper.
The press upon which the paper will be
printed weighs five tons and is beauty and of
general utility. In the past two years The
Sentinel has expended in round numbers for
renewals and equipment over $4,000, and it
hopes to continue to spend money in making its
plant the best possible to perform the work of
the publication and it's large and ever-increas-
ing business in its job department.
Whatever has been done for the betterment
of the publication has been done with an entire
confidence in the future, which has seen no
abatement since the day the first issue of The
Sentinel appeared. 1t has "stood up for
Grand Junction, and it hopes in its enlarged
form to become a much greater factor in public
affairs than it has been, and it has occupied no
small position in these past years.
But whatever has been accomplished by the
paper has been done because the people have
had confidence in and believed in it. The mer-
camille interests of the city have recog-
nized in it medium for advertising their
wares and have given it hearty support from
the day, ten years ago. when it.hrst appeared
fedgng in the newspaper field.
But promises easily made and not so
easily fulfilled always, and as has been the
policy of the past the paper will speak for it.
self We have always gone on the principle
that if paper is worthy of support it will re-
ceive it.
With the hope, them that by our works we
shall continue to merit the support we have
always received, we shall hope that the new
and enlarged form of The Sentinel will not only
be pleasing to the eye, but will from its con-
tents hereafter enjoy larger confidence of its
hundreds of patrons.

The editor of this paper was invited
to the Socialist speaking Sunday af-
ternoon. He found hill announcing
speaking at the Park on his doorstep,
the aforesaid bill being weighted
down by brick bat. to insure the de-
livery of its invitation. But we did
not go. Socialism. without any
question of doubt has many good prin-

prefer to hear their exposition from

life was lived by rule. She was strong
and healthy. On the days when she
did not sing she always took taPioea
soup for breakfast; that and nothing
more. But before breakfast there was
first bath, in which she was assisted
by creole servant who had been with
her for thirty years, and then she was
taken in charge by an East India wom-
an masseur who is celebrated as the
finest masseur in all Europe.

we did it on the sly. PATHS dinner
came at 6 o'clock. Soup, roaSts. cab
