Injury from Mo.qultoes.

New Jersey has many places ideal
IN situation and accessibility, and one
such place developed rapidly to GER
tain point and there it stood, halted
by the mosquitoes that bred in the
surrounding marsh lands. Country
club. golf, tennis and other attrac-
tions ceased to attract when attention
was necessarily focused on the biting
Or stinging pests that intruded every
where, and the tendency was to sell
out. But the owners were not ready
to quit without G fight, and an i'm.
provement society was formed which
consulted with my ONCE and followed
my advice. In one year the bulk Of
the breeding area was drained. mos
quitoes have since been absent al
most entirely; one gentleman, not q
large owner. either. told me his prop
erty had increased $50,0 in value,
and new settlers began to come in.
This year one of the worst breeding
areas of the olden day was used as
camping gorund, and 100 new resi-.
dences are planned for next year

Edna Irvine Case Not Up.

Sheridan, Wyo.-Thus far eigh,
criminals have been convicted or
pleaded guilty in the District Court
at the present session, five of whom
will receive penitentiary sentences.
There are seven criminal cases yet to
be tried, one for murder in the second
degree.
There is probability that the case
of Miss Edna Irvine, charged with as
sault for shooting George Knighton,
manager of the Joe Letter ranch, will
not come to trial. Knighton has not
yet appeared, and efforts of the county
attorney to locate him have failed. 1t
is believed he has temporarily left the
country in order to avoid the necessity
of appearing against the young
girl who shot him. Miss Ir.
vine is the daughter of ex-State
Treasurer w. C. Irvine, and the shoot.
ing of Knighton a year ago created a
sensation.
Those so far convicted are: Charles
Ross, criminal assault ON Rachel
Jones, little girl at Dietz; Ed. Col
man, grand larceny; Charles vassar,
felonious assault; Mike Bumbaca, the
first Of the Italians to be tried for as
saulting Americans at the Monarch
mining camp, was convicted, and Tony
Pappilla at once pleaded guilty to the
same charge.

WILLIAMS PINK PILLS,

Are you troubled with pallor, loss Of
spirits, waves of heat passing over the
body, shortness of breath after slight
e1ertion, peculiar skipping of the
heart beat, poor digestion, cold extremi-
ties or feeling Of weight and fullness?
Do not make the mistake of thinking
that these are diseases in themselves
and be satisfied with temporary relief.
This is the way the nerves give warn
ing that they are breaking down. It
simply means that the blood has become
impure and cannot carry enough nourish-
and able to do their work.
Rest, alone, will sometimes give the
needed relief. The tonic treatment by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills, however, pre-
vents the final breakdown of the nerves
and the more serious diseases which
follow, because the pills act directly
upon the impure blood, making i rich,
red and pure.

and imputed to the governing omcers

College faculties cannot be police ON
GERS. 1t Is not necessary that they
should be. But no one who has at
tended any American college can be-
lieve that his alma mater is an I'M
safe place for most young men. The
variety OF physical and intellectual

energy and does not leave much for
dissipation. To one student who

says Youths Companion. The tone OF
college life is distinctly high compared
with most environments in which
young man might find himself. The In

a tone of industry which the few ruff
