MINERALS IN SAND.

The deposits Of black sands
throughout the Hills are of late re-
ceiving considerable attention. as
they have been found to contain sew
eral rare and valuable minerals.
These sands, occurring largely in
Rapid and Castle creeks. in Bear
Gulch and in Two Bit and Spruce
Gulch, in the old placer workings.
have been discovered to contain the
best quality of iron ore for the mann
facture of highest grade of steel. That
this steel can be turned out at a mini
mum cost was demonstrated at the
Portland exposition, where an eXpe-
rimental electric smelter treated
quantities of similar sand from the
Pacific coast. Another valuable metal
contained therein is monozite, which
can be substituted for carbon calcite
in the manufacture of i~ncandescent
electric lights. Systematic prospect.
ing for this metal, meeting with more
or less success, has been done by
large electric companies.

U. S. DISPENSATORY
describes the Principal Ingredients
Contained in Pe.ru-na.

Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
;emedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
.bundant proof that Peruna is in real
ty such a catarrh remedy7 Let us see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients of
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the ingredient
nydrastis ca%nadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
If this herbal remedy, that it is largely
employed in the treatment of depraved
mucous membranes, chronic rhinitis
(nasal catarrh), atomic dyspepsia lea
tarrh of the shomach), chronic intesti-
aal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice, (ca-
tarrh of the liverl and in diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvic rgans
1t is also recommended for the treat
nent of various forms of diseases Pc
:uliar to women.
Another ingredient of Peruna. cory
ialis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as a tonic. So also
10 cubebs classed as a stomachic and az
q tonic for the mucous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient of
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
years. The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
of cedron that it is used as a bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysentery,
and in intermittent diseases as a sub
stitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient of
Peruna, is classed by the United States
Dispensatory as a mild stimulant and
diuretic. 1t acts on the stomach and
intestinal tract. 1t acts as a stimu-
liant on the g%enito-urinary membranes.
Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dys-
EMERY and diarrhea, and some chronic
diseases of the liver and kidneys.
Send to us for a free book of testimo-
malls of what the people think of Pc
una as a catarrn remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony of those who
have tried it.

that in the present legislature there is
