A
IN LUNGS.

In the Edinburgh Uni
versity three human lungs lie
side by side. One is of an
Eskimo and is snow white.
In life, this would be ruddy
with rich blood. Another is
that of a coal-miner and is
black. The other is Of town
dweller and is a Afty slate
gray, as are TIE lungs of most
city residents. That's why
consumption thrives IN cities.
One reason why SCOTS
Emulsion does so much to
keep down is
because it helps y keep the
lungs clean and supplies
them with rich, red blood. 1t
makes the lungs germ-re-
sisting. If the body is run
down and heah is at a low
ebb SCOTS Emulsion will
build it up quickly and per-
manently.

After arrival In the great world

forth boldly--Rhyolite Beatty and
Gold Center. Rhyolite Is the populous

cased like splendid citadel between

limit so as to create that confrater-
nifty. energy and up and at it" so
characteristic of the good. liberal and
free people of this prosperous burg of

An tiospltable t4osteiry.
Beatty is a neat little town nesting
amongst the gold-laden mountains. on
a semi-circular plateau, and at those
passes that tell the traveller hither to
Goldfeld, thence to the fortune-bear-
ing sections of the south. Beatty has
the best hotel in all that mining re-
lief of the west IL is the Montgom-
cry hotel, directed by the most orig
inal caterer and hotel proprietor, E. s.
Hoyt. west of the Mississippi river. 1t
is worth ones while to go and see him
and enjoy that entertaining hospital
ity that makes Hoyt and his good
spouse so popular and gives the Mont
gomery such extensive fame Beatty
is delightful haven for the desert
traveller.
Gold Center has a future. Ii is at
the base of the mountain, the entrance
way for a great mining section and
destined by nature for commercial
point 1t will be prosperous for many
years to come, and none can stand on
those rugged peaks and note theiF
lines and mute conveyance of wealth
but to have the conviction enforced
what an augury or harbinger of good
times for many, many years to come.
