Wise Old Nature
Finds a New One
Prosene for Stomach Prostration

You cant fool nature all the time; its
bound to find you out. Ifyou misuse 1T.
you will be abused in time. The stomach
isn't copper-lined, riveted with steel
spikes, nor can it solve the problem Of
perpetual motion. Tokeep the stomach
everlastingly Shaving is sure to put ont
of business, but wise old nature has come
to the rescue and provides us with organ
ic substances, identical with the digest
i've juice which natures our food and
prepares it for the blood. All we need
now do is to accept what nature offers,
and become happy wise people There
is no reason why any of MS should suf-
fer stomach trouble, indigestion or con-
stipation, if we will only leave lax
atlves and dyspepsia medicine alone.
These put us to the bad. The natural
stomach tonic which it needed occas-
IonalIy to strengthen and give courage
to the tired and taxed organ, consists
of one ounce Prosene Compound, Com
pound Tincture Cinchona, one ounce
and half pint of Sherry Wine. TC
he taken teaspoonful before meals an(
at bedtime. This Prosene Preparation
was originated by the Cooper Pharma
cal Company of Chicago and can b
had from Ritter Bros Drug Co. Though
the price is trifle, the benefits are ex

Weekly Market Letter..


The Examiner has arranged with
Clay, Robinson q Co. to furnish
weekly market letter. This company
is one of the most reliable that people
of this territory deal with, and the
information contained in these weekly
letters should be of great value to the
ock growers of this territory. Letters
will be furnished from both the Dem
yer and Omaha houses, giving the
stockmen all tine information regard
ing both markets
Following are the letters which have
been furnished this week,
On account of local scarcity of beef,
prices on the Denver market this week
have been away out of line compared
with the Missouri riyer markets but as
there is considerable run in sight for
this next week we look for a sharp de-
cline until values are in line with other
markets.
Receipts Of beef have been extreme
ly light for two weeks and the packer g
coolers haye been empty. These cond-
itions have caused bulge in our mar
ket most satisfactory to the few shippers
who were fortunate enough to have
stuff on the market the past week.
We look for a healthy. steady mar
ket all fall on both beef and feeders
at reasonable figures but shippers should
not expect any high prices for feeding
steers.
Good killing COWS have sold here
this last week mostly at from $365 to
$4.1O, with one fancy bunch Of heavy
white face COWS from North Park al
81 40. Medium COWS have sold mostly
from 80. Is to 1886 and from that OF
down to 1926. There were no very
good killing steers on the market, the
most of the beef steers going at from
So 80 to $4.25 and the packers have
bought steers as low as 1925 and s3.40
We would advise against shipping
anything which is not strictly good bee
until later in the season, as there il
practically no demand for feeders.
