An ex- cess of uric acid also diseases the kid neys, and often causes skin diseases.

None other can compare with it. Druggists sell it at DOC and Sl per bottle.

December IA, 1899. This date and

20, marks another epoch in the his
tory of the Weekly Herald. On this
date and with holiday number was
discarded the old ten column blanket
sheet form that had been a character
istic of the paper for twenty-three
years. The form was changed to that
of seven column eight page mod
ern newspaper and the change was
applauded by the many subscribers
and the army of readers and business
patrons.
On January /, 1905, the firm Of
Hoffman Brothers was merged into
the Oskaloosa Herald Company. An
incorporation was formed with the

AMONG THE CHURCHES
Items Of Interest Cleaned from Pull.

The text of the morning sermon at
the Christian church was from Isaiah
."Witn joy shall We draw water from
the wells of salvation" This pro
'phecy was evidently OF the gospel ag,
and came from man OF keen intel
loct and endowed with marvellous
spiritual insight. Ability to draw
pure, sweet water il exhaustless sup
ply from an eastern well was the
greatest blessing to be conceived by
an oriental. Water to the natural
man is as the gospel to the spiritual
life, never-elding joy and delight
Eastern wells were often scanty OF

text. Jesus said: "If any man thirst
let him come unto me and drink
One of the blessed promises of the
revelator is that We shall drink Of
the fountain of the water of life free

earthly mortals is in Gods book
Every day of life's pathway the chile
OF God should drink of this well. A:
tho natural life can not exist without
pure water, SO the spiritual life thirst:

fully called the fountain OF the WAGER OF

and testament of Jesus.

HAS STRUCK IT RICH.
W. P. Sandusky, Of This City, own
er of a County Seat.

When w. p. Sandusky went down
into Oklahoma last December to buy
property he expected to get good
farm, but he was not looking for
The Eldorado. From advices which
come from there now his 100 acres
of land is likely to beworth $75,vOC
to 100000.
1t all came about in this way: he
located in Beaver county and picked
out claim near a large artesian well
that had been sunk by cattle men,
The forty acres surrounding the well
belonged to the cattle mel, and he
got the rest of the quarter section.
Since December, Beaver county has
been divided into three countless
Beaver, Texas and Cimmaron. The
commissioners of Cimmaron county
according to reports that have reacn
ed this CITY, have located the county
seat at the artesian well, and Mr..
Sandusky seems to have alignted on
a bed of clover. The Santa Fe rail-
road is building lile into the pro.
posed county seat as fast as it can,
and everything points to a hustling
town there in the near future.
Mr. Sandusky is going down tomor,
row to look after his claim, AID mis-
friends will hope that mis- unexpected
good fortune may be all that is prom
Used. If the county seat is located
there,-and there seems to be no
doubt that it is-Mr. Sandusky's claim
will be worth at least calculallon
from $4,000 to 100000.
