There are numerous other smaller
ranches, but on the whole the country
is so sparsely settled as to seem to be
uninhabited. A considerable portion is
covered with pine Forest and it is a
paradise for the sportsman. The
mountain streams abound in handsome
trout while in the woods deer, turkeys
and all of the smalled game are found
in great numbers.

known to exist, but not much effort
has been made to utilize 1t. Now,
however. considerable interest is be-
ing taken in this feature and two or
three companies have been formed TO
prospect and secure the coal land. One
such company is operating from SAT-
ford and another from Clifton. The
coal is now far from railway. which
would make the task of mining and
marketing very difficult. but should
the long talked of road from Gallup

USE OF THE OWNING ROD.

Numerous devices are used through
out this country for detecting the
presence Of underground waterloo
vices ranging in completely from the
forked branch of witch-haZel, peach, or
other wood, to more or less elaborate
mechanical or electrical contrivances.
Many Of the operators Of these de-
vices. especially those that use the
home-cut fOrked branch, are perfectly
honest in the belief that the working
Of the rod is influenced by agencies
usually regarded as electric currents
following Underground streams of wa
ter-that are entirely independent of
their own bodies. and many uneducat-
ed people have implicit faith in their
ability to locate underground water in
this wa-'.
In experiments with a rod of this
type. one of the biologists Of the
United States Geological survey found
that at points it turned downward in
dependently of his will, but more COM
lplete tests showed that the down.
turning resulted from slight and-un-
til watched RECOMMENDATIONS changes
in the inclination Of his body, the eff
fects of which were communicated
through the arms and wrists to the rod
No movement of the rod from causes
outside the body could be detected, and
il soon became obvious that the view
held by other men of science is cor
rect-that the operation of the "di-
vining rod is generally due to uncon-
scious movements of the body or of the
muscles of the hand. The experiments
made show that these movements hap
pen most frequently at places where
the operators experience has led him
To believe that water may be found.
The uselessness of the divining rod
is indicated by the facts that the rod
may be worked at will by the operator,
that he fails to detect strong currents
of water running in tunnels and other
channels that afford no surface indi-
cations OF water. and that his locations
in limestone regions where water flows

in well-defined channels are rarely
more successful than those dependent
on mere guesses- In fact its operators
are successful only in regions in which
ground water occurs in definite sheet
in porous material or in more or less
clayey deposits, such as the pebbly clay
or till in which, although a few fall
ures occur, wells would get water any
where
Ground water occurs under certain
definite conditions,S and as in humid
regions a stream may be predicted
wherever a valley is known. so one
familiar with rocks and ground-water
conditions may predict places where
ground water can be found. No ap-
pliance, either electrical or MECHANICAL,
has vet been successfully used for de-
tecting water in places where plain
common sense or mere guessing would
not have shown its presence just as
well. The only advantage Of employ

Do Your Meals FIT ?
Do You Feel Snug and Comfortable
Around Your Waist Line After
Hearty Meal

Did your last meal taste deliciously
good to you, and did you eat all you
wapted? Could you have patted your
rotundity in glee and felt proud -ot
your appetite and Of your good strong
stomach? Do you feel rosy now be-
cause your last meal gave you no In
convenience whatever? II not, you
have dyspepsia in some form, and
probably never realized it.
| If YOU have the least trouble in your
stomach after eating, no matter how
little or how much you eat, there is
trouble brewing and you must correct
| it at once.
Most all stomach troubles come from
poor. weak. scanty gastric juice, that
precious liquid which ought to turn
your food into rich, red blood.
! If you have nausea, your gastric
juice is weak. II you have sour ris-
ings or belchings, your food is fer
menting; your gastric juice is weak.
If you have loss of appetite, your gas
trio juice is weak. If you have a
bloaty feeling of aversion to food, your
gastric juice is weak.
You need something in your stom-
is scanty, and to give power to the
weak gastric juice. Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets do this very thing.
| Now think-one grain of one If the
ingredients of these wonderful little
tablets digests 5000 grains of food.
They are several times more power
full than the gastric juice in a good,
strong, powerful stomach. They ac-
tually digest your food for you Be-
sides, they increase the flow of gas
trio juice, just what you need to get
all the good possible out of everything
you eat. You will never have that
lump of lead" in your stomach nor
any other stomach trouble after TAX
ing Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. T hen
everything you eat will be digested, il
will give you strength. vim, energy.
and a rosy disposition. You'll feel
good all around your waist line after
every meal and it will make you feel
good all over.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will
make you feel happy after eating a
good, hearty meal. Take one or two
after eating. You'll feel fine-then
your meals will fit, no matter what or
when you eat.
We want to send you a sample
package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets free of charge. so you can test
them yourself and be convinced. AZ
ter you have tried the sample, you
will be so satisfied that you will go
to the nearest drug store and get a
soc box.
