AULr FINDS A BIG RIVER.
Wonderful Underfiow Of lnexhaustibie
Water at Depth of Thirty Feet.

Ault. Colo.-ln digging we'll for the
ground river of seemingly limitless
flow has been found. 1t is only thirty
feet below the surface and the water
is eight feet deep, and it was impossi-
BILE to diminish the depth with four
inch pump.
A six-inch pump was substituted,
but after six hours of work the water
was lowered only fourteen inches. The
first pump has been replaced, and both
are being worked with a gasoline en-
gine, in order that digging may be
completed to about forty feet.
The river is supposed to be the same
one tapped by the residents of Num-
when sinking wells there, which gave
that town the original name of Under

Here is a simple home made mixture
as given by an eminent authority on
Kidney diseases, who makes the state
ment in New York daily newspaper,
tibet it will relieve almost any case of
Kidney trouble if taken before the
stage of Bright's disease. He states
that such symptoms as lame back, pain
in the side, frequent desire to urinate,
especirlly at night; painful and discolor-
ed urination, are readily overcome.
Here is the recipe; try it:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce;
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. Take teaspoonful after each
meal and at bedtime.
A well-known druggist here in town
is authority that these ingredients are
all harmless and easily mixed at home
by shaking we'll in bottle. This mix
ture has peculior healing and sooth-
ing effect upon the entire Kidney and
Urinary structure, and often overcomes
the wost forms of Rheumatism in just a
little while. This mixture is said to re-
move all blood disorders and cure the
Rheumatism by forcing the Kidneys to
filter and strain from the blood and sys-
tenn all uric acid and foul, decomposed
waste matter, which cause these Attic
tions. Try it if you aren't well. Save
