PLACER MINING.
Promising Claim Being Worked Near
This City.

Albert Werner and Will FothergiEl,
who own some very valuable placer
property uear Mill Station, have not
been idle this winter Since the win
ter set in they have been running
drifts on their gravle and by the time
the spring freshets start they will have
a big bunch of rich gravel to run
through the sluices.
The boys found the ground would
pay to drift on. The ground has al
ways paid for surface slucing, but as
the water is limited and the season
short they decided to try drift mining
and get in their work when water
was plenty and the farmers did not
want it.
About two hundred feet Of drifting
hundred tons of rich placer gravel
is on the dump where it will be put
through the sluices as soon as the
spring water comes down the canyon.
The boys have kept tab on the ground
by panning and some of the paintings
! have resulted in nuggets that look
like the California diggings. One mug
get was obtained from that section
weighing over fifty dollars while a
number CT nuggets weighing ten dol
lars have been uncovered: 1t is NOT
unusual to find piece of gold worth

larger than a buckshOt. VIII Foth a.

CUTICURA REMEDIES

"Our baby had that dreadful COM

him for several months, commencing at
the top of his head, and at last covering
his whole body. His sufferings were
untold and constant misery, in fact,
there was nothing we would not have
done to have given him relief. The
family doctor seemed to be wholly
incapable of coping with the case, and
after various experiments of his, which
resulted in no benefit to the child, we
sent to Macon, ILL.,, to druggist and got
full set of the Cuticura Remedies and
applied as per directions, and he began
to improve Immediately, and in about
three or four days began to show
brighter spirit and really laughed, for
the first time in year. In about ninety
days he was fully recovered, with the
exception of a rough skin, which is
gradually disappearing, and eventually
will be replaced by healshy one.

and pallor are the irstnoticeable signs
The disease literally causes the blood
to turn to water and, unless a proper
remedy is used, is inevitably fatal.
There are some who still believe that
anaemia is incurable but the following
case is fully substantiated and may be
investigated by any one interested.
