NAKED WILD man SEEN
ON PIXIES PEAK, COL

Denver, Col, Jan. 23.--A wild man,
naked, with brown hair covering his body,
was seen yesterday on the northwest
slope Of Pixies Peak. The hair on the
mans head was white, while his beard
reached TO his knees.
He weighs about 200 pounds. and whom
discovered by two prospectors, ran off
down the mountain side and disappeared.
The man was naked except pair of
deerskin moccasins.
Ten years ago Alfred Marlowe and Jo-
seph Brady were lost in a blizzard on
Pixies Peak. They were supposed TO
have perished. Two days afterwards
Brady turned up at Colorado Springs,
but Marlowe has never been seen.
He is believed TO be the wild man just
discovered. The theory is that, surviving
his terrible experience but with mind un-
balanced, he has remained a mountain
hermit.

Wait for
Hunger
Good Advice From Wood Bros as TO
How TO Create an Appetite.

uOh W NICdlC dn hVpSH'C'
Any physician will tell you
that 1t is unwise to eat unless is
really hunger. 1t is far better
to miss meal than to eat with
out appetite.
But do not take tonic, slim
ulant or appetizer to make you
hungry. Wood Bros, say the
best way to create an appetite
is to restore the digestion to
health by the use Of Mi o-na
stomach tablets, a reliable rem
edy that they they have with
the best Of satisfaction,
When Miro IA is used the ir
ration and ;nilamation Of the
stomach coating will be sooth
ed, the gastric follicles will be
strengthened so that they will
pour out the natural digestive
fluids with regularity and the
food you cat will be perfectly
digested without distress.
A large 0oE of Mi.o-ua stom-
ach tablets is sold Tor 80 cents
by Woo, Bros, and it is so sue
cessCul ana reliable in curing
Indigestion and other stomach
trouble, &ith the exception of
cancer Of The stomach, that they
sell it under a guarantee that
the money will be refunded IN
less il does all that is claimed
for it.

CONSIDER THE CLOCK
No Lock, No Language, and Face With
out Feature

consider the clock? You should
have done so if you have not,
seeing the clock gives you the
time whenever you ask it. mo
this is no joke. 1t is a pain
statement Of fact)
The clock is so sensitive that
ii constantly keeps it's hands
before its face. This is due to
the fact through no faults of it's
own it has been doing time for
many years in the most public
manner, 1t may be that as the
face OF the clock has no eyes,
nor mouth, nor nose, nor chin,
nor cheeks, nor any of the usual
facial appurtenances. it keeps
its hands over to hide these de-
fects. But this can scarcely be,
we fancy, because it's hands
have no fingers nor thumbs, nor
has it any arms, and any at
tempt to conceal one defect
would only expose an Their.
Most clocks have only two
hands, but many have three
and it is somewhat remarkable
anato mically as we'll as numeri-
cally, that the third hand is the
second hand. 1t may also be
remarked that the minute hand
is not the minute band, for it is
longer than the hour hand.
The clock has neither feet no.
legs but it runs just the same.
1t may be fast or slow, but it
doesnot walk. 1t always runs AMI
it never runs up. 1t runs down
unless 1t is kept ru, ming round
Providence wisely did not give
feet to the clock.
The clock has a key but no
lock, and for that reason even
the most ignorant person never
tries to open a clock with the
key.
Some CLOCKS strike and some
do not, but no clock ever strikes
with itsu hands, Just why a
clock should be so pecucliar is
no atfairiof ours.
(Of course this is no joke,
The striking of clock may be
an affair of hours, but it is not
spe lied the same way. We are
not trying to be funny. This is
a dignified article. Please dc
not interrupt us again.)
That passage in Scripture
which says, by their works
shall you know Them" does not
refer to.clocks, but it might well
have done. so, because that is
the way good clock is known.
The clock speaks a universal
language and no matter wheth-
err it is a German clock, or
Ere nch or Spanish or Italian, it
can tell you the time just as
distinctly as if it were PLAZA
Yam kee.
The clock differs from all 9th
er human affairs in that while
their operations end when they
are wound up, the clocks do
not begin until they are wound
up.
There are no clocks in heav-
en-, because there1 is no time
there. Neither is there
any night, and an eight-day
clock would not know when to
