APPENDICITIS.
Not at All Necessary to Operate in
Many Cases.

Automobiles and Appendicitis scare
some people before they are hit.
Appendicitis is often caused by too
much starch in the bowels. Starch is
hard to digest and clogs up the diges-
tive machinery-als tends to form
cakes in the cecum. (That's the blind

AGE TOLD BY The PULSE.
From Birth to Death the Beats Have
Steady Decrease.

How old are you? Ask your pulse.
The human pulse has wide range,
even in perfectly healthy persons.
The female pulse always beats fast
er than the male, and from birth to
death the pulse beats steadily de-
crease. 1t has been said by great
authorities that the age and sex of
a person could be ascertained by the
rate Of the pulse alone. Babies at
birth have pulse beat of 100 times
minute in case of girl and $50 in
the case of boys. AT the age of four
or five the pulse beats will have fall
en- respectively to ITO and 100. Maid
ems and youths pulses average 95
and 90. Mature men and women av-
erage so and rs. Elderly men and
women have an average of GO and 3d.
An old woman's pulse rarely, If ever,
sinks below 80, but among men a
pulse beat below SO is quite common.
There are, however, great variations
consistent with health. Napoleon's
pulse is said to have beaten only A
times minute.

Eleven men, members of the crew
of the Norwegian antarctic expedition
ship Catherine, have been rescued
after having been cast away on one
of the Crozet isles in the southern
Indian ocean. far off the track OF

placed there In 1880. The latter was

WEIGHT AND HEALTH
THIN, NERVOUS PEOPLE NEED
THE TONIC TREATMENT.
This Woman Took Or. Williams Pink
Pills, Gained Thirty Pounds and
Has Seen Well Ever Since.

How many women-and men too
are suffering from q general decline In
health which the ordinary remedies
seem unable to check How many hus-
bands see their wives wasting away,
steadily losing health and beauty, and
are powerless to helpl Consumption
and other germ diseases find in these
debilitated systems easy prey, for the
lowered vitality is unequal to the task of
fighting off the infection of these diseases
to which most of us are almost daily ex-
posed.
The symptoms indicating the decline
which may have results so fatal could
scarcely be better described than in the
statement Of Mrs. William Manley, of
90 Court street, Utica, N. Y. Her case
is typical one. She says:
For six months after the birth of my
baby, I-suffered from sick, dizzy head
aches, which seemed like rush of
blood to my forehead, just back of my
eyes. Some days they twitched SO ]
could hardly see and black spots fioated
before them. The least exertion brought
on this sickness. My appetite was poor
and was often sick to my stomach.
"If 1 tried to work my feet soon be-
came swollen, paining me terribly. ]
had sinking spells and grew pale and
nervous. was so thin that weighed
only SO pounds.
zone day when at the drug store to
get headache powders decided to try
DIR. Williams Pink Pills instead, I
soon noticed that my headache was dis
appearing and my nerves gradually
grew stronger. The pills gave me a
hearty appetite and now weigh over
1870 pounds. l believe the pills to be the
best tonic and builder woman can take,
as they certainly helped me when my
condition was critical and l have never
been seriously i'll since"
The great value of Dr. Williams Pink
Pills lies in the fact that they actually
make new blood and this carries health
and strength to every portion of the
body. The stomach is toned up, the
nerves are strengthened, every organ is
stimulated to do its work.
If you are i'll and the treatment you
are taking does not cure you, write for
proof of what DR., Williams Pink Pills
have done in similar cases.

T0NATES NEW SITE
FOR COURT HOUSE
Col. tioDSWeII offers site closer IN
and more Convenient

Col. w. S. Hopewell, general mana
ger of the New Mexico Fuel & Iron
Company, was in town Wednesday OF
this week from Santa Fe. While here
he discussed the location Of the court
house, having understood that there
was some disagreement over the loca-
ton, some favoring the site in the
northwestern part of the toWnsite and
others clamoring for site in the south
end Of town. Mr.. Hopewcll is anxious
to avoid sectional strife in town. and IS
trying to compromise the affair. AS a
compromise measure he offers to donate
instead of the block offered some three
yetrs ago, and fenced at that time by
the county commissioners, the west
half Of the first block Just inside the
east end of the park for a court house
site.
This location is almost the center of
the townsite and would face the park
proper, thus making it an ideal court
house site. 1t is within easy access to
the business center of the town AMI tn e
depot and withal not too close. Facing
the park, an ideal spot could be made
of these grounds with comparatively
small expense. 1t is up to the citizens
to agree on some location as nearly
central as possible, and see that the
commissioners of the county do their
duty, and get the court house under
way.
Mr.. Hopewell further offers to deed
to board of trustees in trust for the
town, when it shall hvae been incorpo-
rated, the four blocks of the park and
four lots off the east endo of each of the
the two blocks west of the park for
park purposes. He does this so that
the park may be taken care of, trees
set out and cared for, and beginning
made in bcautifying the land. The
at the meeting on Tuesday and will
probably act on the matter at the next
meeting.

applicants for the positions, for it wish
es to employ only skillful men. It es-
timated that in certain parts of New

yearling steer or a calf every three
days. If the wolves can be extermina-
ted, hundreds Of thousands, if not mil
lions, Of dollars worth of cattle will be
saved every year. The eleven hunters
to be employed will be sent to the Saw
