Distributed Books.
Washington, d. c., March /, 1906.
Colonel Max. Frost, Secretary Bureau
of immigration, Santa Fe, N. M.
"My Dear Sir--I have just received
the first hundred copies Of the book
"To the Land of Sunshine" published
by the Bureau of immigration. I have
distributed these copies to the Sena-
tors now in Washington. You and
your co-laborer, Paul A. F. Walter, are
certainly entitled to great commenda-
ton and credit for this work, the best
ever prepared on the conditions and
resources of our great Territory. 1t is
verify, a compendium Of interesting
facts put into excellent shape and in
clear, concise and grammatical Ian
guage so as to be easily understood
by the scholar as we'll as by the lay
man, by the professor as we'll as by
the man who has received common
school education only. Every one to
whom ] have presented the book has
praised it unstintedly, and the people
of the Territory have already gained
much in good reputation for their lib
erality and good sense in providing
for a Bureau of immigration that can
do such splendid work.
Calls for More Copies.
II will need more than 600 copies
TO fill the demand which the first hun
dred copies received has created here.
Every Senator and Representative
shall have one, the public Libraries
one each, and the high department and
bureau officials will receive it for their
official libraries.
81 am fairly well acquainted with
New Mexico but must say that the
book contains descriptions of many ac
tual conditions and favorable facts as
to astonish me. There is nothing of
interest in New Mexico that you have
left untouched as far as I can see.
From a literary and typographical
standpoint am glad to say to you
that those who have seen and ex-
amined the book, including myself.
pronounce it better than anything in
that line they have ever seen from any
state or territory. Please hurry the
500 copies | need Immediately aud
send me cloth bound copies only as
the recipients desire to preserve the
book for reference in their Libraries.
AS soon as you can, send me 400 more

"I am very glad, indeed, to be able

good it will do.

A WONDERFUL MEMORY.
The Story Marcus Told of Young
COrsican Marvel.

Marcus tells US that during his trav-
els over Europe he met the marvel of
marvels" at Padua. The marvel in
question was a young Corsican who
was in the city for the purpose Of pur-
suing his studies at the university.
Marcus. having heard that the young
man was gifted with an extraordinary
memory, desired to put the student to
the test.
The person who had informed the
traveller concerning the wonderful re-
tentiveness Of the young Corsican's
memory declared that he was so gifted
III that faculty that he could repeat as
many as 10000 words if read over to
him but once. Marcus and three dis
tinguished Nenetians agreed to test the
accuracy of the statement. A commit
tee visited the student of extraordinary
memory and found him willing to sub
NIT to the ordeal. Accordingly there
was read over to him an almost inter
minable list of words strung together
without any consecutive order and
without any meaning whatever.
The young man stood all the time
with his attention deeply fixed and his
eyes half closed. When the long string
of words had been read off he looked
up cheerfully and repeated the whole Of
the embarrassing catalogue of words
without single fault. Then to show
how carefully his wonderful memory
had retained every word he went
through the list backward. When that
task was finished he took each alter
nate word-tirst. third, fifth, etc.-and
repeated them until the company was
thoroughly convinced that they were in
the presence of the most wonderful
prodigy of memory that the world had
ever produced

CAUGHT IN ABALLOON.
Terrible Experience of Woman
Spectator at a Fair.

Middletown, n. Y, August 29.-Hang-
ing head downward from rapidly as
cending balloon, Mrs. Roper of Brooklyn, "a
spectator at balloon ascension in Ellen
vile, was carried nearly 1000 feet in the
air this afternoon, while $1,000 people
expected to see her dashed to death every
moment.
The occasion was the Ulster county
fair, and large crowd had come to see
Miss Maggie Dale, an amatuer aeronaut
of this city, make an ascension.
One of the ropes whirled into the crowd
and the loop caught Mrs. Roper by the
leg. The balloon rose rapidly, carrying
her, head downward, and Miss Dale sit
ting on the trapeze. Mrs. Roper gave
one shrek and then tainted.
The guy rope which was fastened
around Mrs. Ropers leg hung from the
top of the balloon and her body swung
by Miss Dale, who was seen trying to
grasp Mrs. Roper. She finally succeed
ed in getting hold of Mrs. Roper's hair
Then it was seen that the balloon was
descending and the crowd rushed madly
in its direction.
Miss Dale still holding Mrs. Roper by
the hair, leaped from the balloon when
it was few feet from the ground. She
succeeded in throwing'of the rope when
the balloon again scared into the clouds
and was lost to view.
Willing hands carried Mrs. Roper to
the home of DR.. Divine, where, after
some time, she revived. Her injuries
consisted of broken hand and many
cuts and bruises. Miss Dale was also
severely cut and bruised.

KNOW THY COUNTRY.
A Precept That Every Citizen should
Take to Heart.


Juvenal said, This precept descends
from heaven-know myself" To this
we add-know thy country Know lbs
area, its population, it's products, ma
tive and exclusive, agricultural and
mineral. Know its present output and
its possibilities. Know its states, its
territories and large cities and what
they are severally noted for. Know
Its geography and typography, its CON
stitution, principles and history, its
literature, its art and its sciences, its
philosophy, discoveries and inventions.
Know its relation to other nations,
both political and financial. Know its
possessions - Alaska, Hawaii, Porto
Rico and the Philippines-theirh history
severally, the customs and languages
of their people and the sources of their
wealth. Many men know these things
nowand love their country and are serv-
iceable to their fellow citizens in pro
portion to their knowledge. 1t costs
labor and the sacrifice of so called
pleasure to acquire this knowledge, but
to the genuinely manly man, whose
life's purpose is to make the utmost of
his abilities and opportunities and who
In one way and another Is developing
his country's hidden treasures and i'm
parting his own practical enthusiasm
to other lives, there are a relish and a
delight in the search for knowledge
that compensate thousandfold.

RHEUMATISM CANNOT BE
CURED
Unless Uric-Ois Used.-The Store
of M. r. Burt is the Home of
Uric-O in MiddIe bury.

The Rheumatic person is skeptical regard
ing the claims of almost any remedy adver-
tised as a cure for Rheumatism and one can
scarcely blame him for being so. All the
plasters and liniments combined never actu-
ally cured case of Rheumatism. They may
relieve 1t one in quarter but it is sure to break
out somewhere else. The only true way to
cure Rheumatism, is to drive it from the system,
for as long as the Uric and Rheumatic Acid
remains in the blood, one is never entirely
free from the trouble. This is where the
value OF Uric-O as permanent cure for Rheu-
matism comes in. 1t seeks out the Rheuma.
tic poison in the blood, muscles and kidneys,
renders it inert and harmless and drives it
out of the system. That is why Urc-O is such
an admirable and effective cure for Rheuma-
ism.
The chief reason that Uric-O is such Won
derful cure for Rheumatism u.s. that it is de-
esigned and prepared to cure Rheumatism
only. 1t does not contain any alcohol
or other so called tonics to make one "feel
good for the time being, but is composed of
antidotes for the rheumatic acid poison in the
system. That is the secret of its wonderful
success. Rheumatism simply cannot exist In
persons system if Uric-O is used. Uric-O
is sold by NJ. X. Burt, "The home of Uric-O"
IN Mlddlebury, at 75c and SIoo the bottle,
but if you still feel skeptical about its efficacy
you can test it free of charge by cutting out
this advertisement and sending same together
with your name and address to the Smith
Drug Co., Syracuse, n. Y. and they will send
you sample bottle free. To all persons who
write and say they never used Uric-O, and
want to test it thoroughly, and will agree to
take it Systematically according to directions,
they will frequently send regular 75c bottle
free.

THE GOD OF WAR.
Blustering Mars and His Name Month,
the ThrnCinn of the Twelve.

Blustering Mars and His Name Month,
the Thrncian of the Twelve.
Mars was not favorite among the
classic Greeks, nor is his name month
a great favorite among the Gothic
moderns. The god of war was q bar
barian intruder in the Olympian circle.
There was something Thracian, and by
that token crude and unworthy in his
manner. He was more of blusterer
than a fighter, and Homer narrates
with evident relish how Pallas Athene
tumbled him over in combat, his vast
bulk covering several acres. OF wild
aspect, untutored ways and Indifferent
wits, he had little to recommend him
but his immoral origin.
Such also is the month that has taken
the war gods name. One poet notes
its ugly looks and threats" "a half
wild creature cast from natures lap"
another calls it. The proverb mad as
a March hare" says the same thing
with less reticence. English people
call the month March Manyweath-
ers" and thereby intimate their doubt
Of Its capacity for sustained purpose.
1t is the Thracian of the twelve, as
September is the Tyrian. There is
something clustering and barren in its
aspect, as there is in what people call
"a good war" The winds that blow
from one end of it to the other are not
1.-THE winds of God" A peck of March
dust may BE worth a kings ransom, as
wise saw has it. but from the aver
age human it gets less grateful guer-
don. Beware the ides of March" is
good wisdom for our common human
ity.-New York Mail.

MUSIC STRINGS.
The Great Amount of Material Re-
CURED TO Meet the Demand


"One of the most generally accepted
but mistaken ideas that are entertained
by the people of this country" said a
travelling representative of n foreign
manufactory OF gut strings, "is that
strings used on musical instruments
are manufactured from catgut If that
were true the cats in this world would
have been eXterminated many years
ago in supplying the market with ma
terial for musical instrument strings.
The fact is that they are manufac-
tured from the iGtestines of sheep and
in obtaining enoSgh raw material even
from these. animals the manufacturers
at times find difficulty.
The only string made from the in
testines of the feline is that used for
surgical purposes - for sewing up
wounds. One would be amazed to
know that there are millions of mu-
steal instrument strings used in North
America alone, and just think where
the Tables would be If they had to
supply the consumption.
Another amazing thing is that there
are over 200 different grades of musical
instrument strings. The demand for
strings in North America is increasing
every year, especially in the south and
in Mexico. There are more guitar
strings sold in Mexico than any other
kind, but through the south the banjo
string is still popular, despite the fact
that every year has marked a slight but
gradual falling off in the demand. -
