Proper Treatment of Pneumonia.

EIOpCi lICdtiuCut Va hSuHiOHiN'
Pneumonia is too dangerous n dis
ease for anyone to attempt to doctor
himself, although he may have the
proper remedies at hand. A physi-
clan should always be called. 1t
should be borne in mind, however,
that pneumonia always results from
II cold or from an attack of the grip,
and that by giving Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy the threatened attack
of pneumonia may be warded OIL.
This remedy Is also used by physi-
clans In the treatment Of pneumonia
with tho best results. DIR. w. j..
Smith of Sanders, Ala, who is also n
druggist, says of 1T: II have been
selling CEamberlain's Cough Remedy
and prescribing it in my practice for
the past six years. 1 use it in cases
of pneumonia and have always gotten
the best results" Sold by all drug
giSts.

the Hereford Ranch.

The ranch of the Hereford association
east OF ths city il considered tn be one
Of the best ranches in the west, not only
in the quality OF cattle handled, but in
the management and improvements
continually being made there. says the
CHEYENNE Tribune.
In ten years the crop of hny on the
first year TO crop Of over 500 tons for
the present season.
This has been done by sparing no ef-
fort to keep the meadows from losing
there fertility by generous use Of manure
and the yearly sowing of seed OF desira-
bic grasses.
Like all other Wyoming ranches the
hay crops OF the Hereford association
have been greatly damaged by the en-
croachment of wild rye, or as is better
known, foxtail. Thisgrass has stalk

which the seed is protected by beard

It ripens quicker than other meadow
grasses and has generally ripened and
scattered its seed over the meadows by
the time haying begins.
Many plans to exterminate 1t have
been tried from time to time, but the
plan now adopted at the Hereford ranch
has worked admirably for several years
and seems to he tl,e most practical OF
any of the plans tried.
In the spring as soon rs the frost Is

TO BE TAKEN WITH
A GRAIN OF SALT.

This story is told for what 1t is
worth.
1t is generally believed by the rail-
road men in Ogden.
1t tells Of the most eventful incident
in the life of a peripatetic wanderer.
1t may cause some people to ask if
honesty is the best policy after all.
The story goes that about two weeks
ago at Fenelon, on the Southern Pa
cific road, for some reason or other
the mail and express matter was trans
ferred from one train to another. In
the hurry and confusion of this work
one Of the express messengers dropped
a box containing $4,000 in gold. 1t
was not missed and the transfer Of val
tables was concluded and the two
trains went on their different ways.
Pretty soon GLOOMY Gus" or what
I'VE may be the hobo's name, came
along and spied the box. He thought
perhaps it contained a lunch and he
was hungry. He had not dined that
day and he did not remember having
eaten anything the day previous.
OF course he opened the box.
What did he do when he saw the
gold9
Did he come to Ogden and go on a
debauch ?
Did he change his name, go miles
away and live happily eve after
No; he turned his find over to the
section foreman.
1t Is said that the railroad company
has rewarded his honesty by appointing
him Waterman OF a gate or something
in California at $40 or $50 per month.
