Map of San cristobaI Quadrangle.

A map of the San Cristobal quad
rangle, Colorado, which embraces an
area of about 944 square miles and
comprises portions of Hinsdale, Min
eral, La Plata and San Juan counties,
has recently been published by the
United States Geological Survey.
This area is one of the most highly
elevated regions recently surveyed by
the government. 1t ranges in altitude
from about S,100 feet to 1850 feet
above sea level and only a very small
part of 1t is below 5000 feet The Con-
tinental divide extends entirely across
the sheet twice in an east and west di-
rection. swinging around the head of
the Rio Grande. the source of which is
a short distance beyond the western
boundary of this area.
There are a few mining settlements
in the northwest part of the quad
rangle and number of hay ranches
in the lower valleys, but the greater
part of the area is uninhabited and
contains some of the most rugged
mountain country to be found in the
United States. Portions of the San
Juan and Cochetopa national forests
are included in the quadrangle.
Numerous mountain lakes are found
In this quadrangle and from one of
these the quadrangle takes its name
Some of these lakes are especially
beautiful. Deer and mountain sheep
are quite numerous and the streams
abound In trout.

Six Reasons for Wanting to Die.

Chicago.-Six reasons why he killed
himself were given by Beauford l.
Leeds, guest of the Warner hotel,
who was found dead in his room, hav-
ing committed suicide by taking
strychnine. The reasons were as fol-
lows:
First-I have been dissatisfied since
/ was a child.
Second-I have been handicapped
throughout life with deformed feet.
Third-One side of my body has
been partly paralyzed for the past ten
years.
Fourth-My right hand has been
ruined by an accident
Fifth have been a sufferer from
neuralgia.
SIXTH have been up against a
score of financial misfortunes.
Leeds, who, it is supposed, is chem
ist, left a letter addressed to Miss
Blanche Keller, Swanton, Ohio. and it
is believed his home was at that place.
He was about 80 years old.

OF Interest to Women.

Every woman naturally should be
healthy and strong, but great many
women, unfortunately. are not, owing
to the unnatural condition Of the lives
we lead. Headache, backache and a
general tired condition are prevalent
amongst the women OF today. and TO
relieve these conditions women rush
TO the druggists for a bottle of some
preparation supposed to be particular
ly for them, aud containing nobody
knows what. II they would just get a
hox Of Brandreth's Pills, and take them
regularly every night for time, all
their trouble would disappear, as these
pills regulate the organs of the feminine
system. The same dose always has the
same effect, no matter how long they
are used.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use
for over century and are sid in every
drug and medicine store, either plain
or sugar-coated.

could not take cod liver oil or emul-
