SPRING CATARRH.

SPRING CATARRH.
Almost every one has come to believe
that spring is season that brings de-
rangements of the body dependent on
blood impurities.
This belief is an old one, is nearly uni
versal and has arisen, not as the result
of the teachings Of the medical frater-
nifty, but has been learned in the bitter
school Of experience.
NERVOUS DEPRESSION. -"
Depression of the nervous system at
the approach of spring is a fertile
source Of blood impurities.
There are general lassitude, dull,
heavy sensations, continual tired feel
ings, with irregular appetite, and some
times loss Of sleep.
THAT TIRED FEELING.

ural result of the depressing effect of
warm weather Immediately after the

disappears when Peruna Is taken.

THE TOY INVENTOR.
His Hardest Task h to Catch the
Fancy of the Public.

His Hardest Task Is to Catch the
Fancy of the Public.
The small inventor is an important
factor In the mechanical toy business,
and he earns all of the living he gets
In thinking up devices. He is most con-
cerned with the small mechanical toys,
and. in addition to the Prime requisite
of putting forth something novel, he
must get something which costs as lit
tie as possible and which catches the
fancy of the multitude. This last point
Is one which is most difficult to cover.
No student Of the subject has ever yet
been able to discover or deduce the
cycle in which the public taste moves,
and it is still hit or Miss as to whether
n figure which walks on its hands, an
iirslIip with wings or an ACROBAT WHO
works by gravity will be the best sell
er. Then. when the invention has been
achieved the inventor has still the
problem of iinding the maker who Will
buy it and pay fair price. Ihe IN
yentor and maker are in much the
same position as the writer and pub
Usher; both go through the same NEIL
tai turmoil as to the timeliness OF the
output and both take the same risks.
The inventor who has been in the
business long learns ut last the best
places ut which to offer his wares and
has more or less Of all idea Of what
they ought to bring him. and once he
has acquired this knowledge his entire
energy is devoted to keeping up with
the demand for newness. Something
absolutely different from anything else
previously offered is in general better
than an improvement Of an old idea,
and that is why in mechanical toys the
same device Is seldom seen two seasons
In succession.-Philade Record.

War Of Sheep and Cattle Men
IT HAS EXTENDED ALL OVER THE WEST
BUT IS NEARING SETTLEMENT.

The situation has been duplicated so
many, many times that one incident has
become typical. A settler who has per-
haps few acres of bottom land in which
to grow little alfalfa runs few dozen
head of cattle on the bench range back
from the creek. He may have been
there long time; he may have just
come into the country. At all events
he came first. He is resident of the
county and taxpayer. He may not
own a foot of that range; but its ex-
istence is what brought him to that part
of the country and made it worth his
while to maintain that little homestead.
There is enough range along the creek
country for all the settlers; at any rate,
they do not quarrel for it. and If the
range runs short near at hand they drive
their cattle back into the hills. One day
the settler takes his family and drives
off to some town, say, fifty or hundred
miles away, and is gone for several days.
When he comes back he hardly knows
his place. His few acres of inclosure, per-
haps, have not been touched, but for
miles around the ground is barren and cut
by tiny hoofs. A band of several thou
sand sheep passing through the country
has stopped in his neighbOrhOod for few
days. His cattle and horses have either
gone back into the hills to find some
thing on which to live, or they are stand
ing about the homestead with a down.
cast air. When that settler turns and
looks his family in the face he declares
war. He curses "those vermin" sheep.
And if the destruction of range has not
been so complete that he is driven out OF
the country the next sheepherder who
appears on the crest of the hill finds
himself met by stern looking man who
says, "Git," and the sheepherder gifts ="
Otherwise he is liable to be surprised in
the middle of the night, and left bound
| in the sagebush, while his sheep are shot
and scattered to be the prey OF coyotes:
This struggle between the cattle and
sheep men is an economic problem. 1t
will know no settlement until the whole
country is under fence. 1t began away
over i'm Texas aud in the Indian Terri
tory, and has worked across the country,
until now it is more active in Central
Oregon than anywhere else. For twenty
wears there has been trouble in Colorado.
Bands of thousands of sheep have been
shot down and driven over precipices in
that state. The same thing has hap
pened in Wyoming, but that is largely a
fenced country now. The struggle also
existed in Idaho, but was never so very
bad, on account of the topography OF
the country. The sheep men largely
control the district south of the Salmon
River, while to the north of the Salmon
River there are practically no sheep, and
the cattle own the country. The noun
tains between the two sections of the
g. ate form q natural "dead line."-
