A Wonderful Chance no Make None,

An important movement is being
started, and all are invited to join. The
object is to form a Peoples Oil Com
pany, in which the immense profits In
oil will be distributed among the thou
sands composing the company. 1t is
thought every dollar invested will pay
so per cent dividend per annum, and
many people, only getting four or six
per cent on their money. will be glad
of this opportunity to get so per cent.
The Standard Oil Company pays from
80 to 100 per cent annually. SO so per
cent can safely be expected and per
haps more. There is no possibility of
loss. Any lady or gentleman with a
little money which they desire to bring
them big interest without any risk
should write to Mr.. j. NJ. McInerney.
Block 101, Pittsburg, Pa, for particu-
lars regarding this movement. The
Government has crushed the Standard
Oil power. and now the people have a
chance. Every person who has $40 or
more to invest should help ON this
movement. as 1t will be as profitable as
Standard Oil investments have been.

TROPICAL LUXURIFS
 IN VICINITY OF TAMPICO
An American Business Man Who Has
 Become Enamored Of That Region.

Tampico. Mex, Nov. .6.-(Special Correspondence of The Repubican.)- Today six large ocean steamships are unloading and loading in our harbcr. We had nice qu.et rain the past two days and nights, with the temperature 'dt i5 degrees. Garden stuff is doing fine-potatoes, tomal oes, beans. cucUm- bers. cabbage, etc. One man two miles out of the cit= has 250 acres In Irish potatoes. Corn is just coming up m the third crop and some is q foot high and others waist and shoulder high. The timber and brush is full O. wild lines. We see the ground and trees both covered with wild (sweet) or anges-oid Spanish variety I suppose. From our windows here in this city we saw man climb a cocoanut tree and pick off fifteen big nuts. Our friends bring us in some of the richest friut we ever ate. The Monte or Mex ican apple is really a tropical persim- mon, large as d good Bartlett pear and grows wild. There are also wild Qua vas, l IA inch in diameter and very fine. Garden stuff seems to do best in the sandy soil near the coast.

He is superintendent of a large brick works in Kansas which do Sl60,- 900 worth of business annually and have twelve gas wells, using gas for fuel. He says: Il wish to say to those who wish to visit old Mexico to dis card all fear of the natives and pay a visit to Tampico. where you will be surprised to meet so many good. hon est Americans and natives.

 Tampico and surrounding country than and part I have seen. Why? Because Tampico is fine seaport located oH the Gulf of Mexico and is a thriving city of about 25.o00, one thousand be ing Americans. Second. because Tam pico is the greatest shipping port in the known world according to popula- ton. There are about six large ocean steamers per day to enter and leave this harbor. after having discharges and taken cargoes for every part ot the world.
 Third, because the Mexican Central railroad has two lines entering Tampi- co and a third direct 70 the City ol Mexico. building. The road handles an immense amount of freight to every part of the republic. The many large ocean steamers are always heavily loaded and when discharged are re-

AS OTHERS THINK.
Everyone in Phoenix Has a Right to
 His Own Opinion.

While everyone has right to his own opinion. yet it is wise to always consider what others think and profit by their experience.
 Nothing makes life so miserable. or interferes so widely with the useful ness of the average American. as in digestion. and it is well for us to give fair consideration to what others think about this remarkable affliction.
 The Larson Drug co. are positive that in Mi-o-na stomach tablets they have an absolute cure for indigestion and the many disagrecable symptoms that follow this disease, such as dis tress after eating. coated tongue. bad taste. in the mouth. dizziness. flatu- lcnce, nervousness and debility. Their action in selling Mi-o-na on a guarantee to refund the money unless it cures. shows plainly their belief in the value of this remedy. They take all the risk, and there will be no charge whatever for Mi-o-na unless you are satisfied that it has relieved you of Indigestion.

CLEAN OUT THE PENS.

Make up your mind which YOU
prefer to feed, hens or lice, and
then go to work to develop your
fancy. If it's hens, clean out the
pens and look sharply after the
vermin. Wash off the roosts with
kerosene. Sweep out the corners
and for once clean house III a thor
ough manner. Then carry in
fresh straw and a new dust bath.
Make a trip through the pens ence
in three or four days, after the
hens have gone to roost, and
sprinkle a little insect powder
through the feathers OF each one.
In this way the lice can be driven
off. If it's lice You want, then
keep right on letting the hens
roost in their filth, don't try to
clean up, and full crop may be
guaranteed. One thing is sure,
lice and eggs are produced in the
same pens.

lime as do oyster shells, and it con

of comparatively little value over

to itself. All classes of poultry are
extremely fond of it. Care should
be taken to have it pure and sweet
