1t does seem as though the Col
orado G. Southern railway could
arrange the schedule of the train
connecting with the Argentine
Central SO the passengers going to
and from this city would not have
to wait at Forks Creek an hour
each afternoon. While it is prop
er that the railroad cater to the
summer excursion business, it
does not seem fair that travellers
who patronize the road the entire

inconvenience they are put to

Women Who Wear Well.

1t is astonishing how great change q
few years of married life often make in
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from 4
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron is only dim shadow, a faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change. ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
riage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.
AS surely as the general health suffers
when there is arrangement of the health
OF the delicate womanly organs, so surely
when these organs are established in
health the face and form at once witness
to the fact in renewed comeliness. Nearly
a million women have found health and
happiness in the use of DIR. Pierces Fa-
vorite Prescription. 1t makes weak wom-
On strong and sick women well. Ingredi-
entS on label-contalnS no alcohol or
harmful habit-forming drugs, made
wholly of those native, American, medic
inal roots most highly recommended by
leading medical authorities of all the sew
eral schools of practice for the cure of
wQmans peculiar ailments.
For nursing mothers, or for those broken
down in health by too frequent bearing of
children, also for the eXpectant mothers,
to prepare the system for the coming Of
baby and making its advent easy and
almost painless, there is no medicine quite
SO good as "Favorite Prescription" 1t
can do no harm in any condition of the
tonic and strengthening nervine nicely
adapted to woman's delicate system by a

Bryan and Cannon have been

Bryan and Cannon finally receive
the nomination for president from

delegates each precinct is entitled
to in the county convention, the
chairman OF the Democratic coun-
ty central committee made it on a
a basis Of one delegate to every
fifty votes or fraction cast for Alva
Adams in the last state election.
The number of delegates each
precinct is allowed will be found
in the official call for the conven-
tion. Adams received total vote

Bible Study In India.

Facts show the failure of non.
Christian religious in India. The fol.
lowing is an illustration: In the dis.
trict of Punjab only forty families OF
Brahmin priests are left, where for.
merly there were $50. Numbers OF
Brahmins are defying the curse and
taking up secular callings, because
the Office of priest no longer affords
them living. Popular education and
Bible study have broken down the
alteration formerly paid to the priests,
and their vocation Is gone.

New York. Oct. 1o.-Stock started off
strong and higher this morning with
American Smelter the particular strong
feature in the industrial column. 1t
scored an advance of about two points
in the first hour. The rumors were TO
the effect that its dividend rate would
be increased and possibilities Of putting
it on d ten per cent basis. In the late
afternoon, however, the advance was
lost. Liberal selling orders appeared 10
take profits and this took the edge of
the market.
Union Pacific and St. Paul were both
strong and higher. The Hartman in
terests were reported as the largest
buyers of both of these issues The
higher priced railroad shares main
tanned their advance better than the
ndustrials. The close tonight on the
list is rather Irregular with losses in
some issues and gains in others.

CHICAGO LETTER.

Chicago, Oct. 10.-The opening on
wheat was very slow and easy. Pend
ing the Government report the trade
was very dull. The pit traders were
doing most of the selling. Cables
showed wheat a fraction lower The
fiuctuated within narrow linn
its, and developed a weaker tone dur
ing the latter part of the session, clos
ing half cent lower than the high
point of the day
AS in wheat, speculative activity
was held in check in corn, pending the
issuance of the Government report
which was rather bearish. Pronounced
dullness prevailed, with a weak under
tone. A good business in exports for
later shipments was reported. but the
shipping demand for old grain contin-
ued weak. The closing quotations
showed a half cent decline for Deem
Der and a fractional loss in May.
Oats were moderately active, with
values showing a firm tone. The prin-
cipal support came from shorts and
commission houses. and the closing
was firm.

THE QUAKER WAY.

DO you know the Quaker idea of
medicine and good health? They be-
heved that as nourishing materials of
the earth must first pass into some
form of vegetation, and through that
mysterious agency of life and sunshine
become fit for food, so also must medi-
cinal materials pass into vegetation
before they can properly benefit the
human system. Such was their belief
such also was their practice.
Sound in both mind and body, their
sturdy descendants of the present day
are living attests to the wisdom of this
doctrine,

Remedies, for which there was an ever
increasing demand. a company was To-
