No Financial Trouble Among the In

Silks and satins are none too good
for the Indian women on some Of the
Western reservations. A writer in
Fur News who visited the trading
post at Naudau says that the women
we're hitting up the demand for silk
and satin. canned goods and other
Injuries at a furious rate.
The storekeeper at the post an
nounced that certain silken ~scarfs,
perhaps eighteen inches square, OF
bright red, blue and purple colors,
we're selling like hot cakes at from
$3.50 to 81 apiece. The scarfs are
worn by the squaws in the manner
of a fascinator, and no care as to
their cleanliness, ETC., seemed to be
taken by the n Visitors saw
many squaws at the post dressed in
the finest of silk, but it is put on in
such a manner that the beauty Of the
goods is lost.

CHAPTER XIV.

Judith Ballard paced restlessly up
and down the narrow room Of her
hastily-sought lodging at Hampstead.
She had been travelling all night, but
her eyes were bright with the fever Of
Impotence, and the fire of resolve
famed in her heart and buoyed up her
tired limbs. Now and again she
glanced at the clock and listened In
tently as If expecting some one.
In another hour her expectation was
realized, and Kate Daucey entered the
room. For a moment the two gazed at
each other in silence, and then by q
mutual impulse they fell into each 9TH
er's arms.

Wide Difference Found
 Zn Bids 14ade Or Onbicts

The difference between the price paid by the Bessemer Coal and Land company for state convicts and that offered by the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad com pany for the Jefferson county convicts is so wide that many people have not been able to understand it.
 The state feeds, clothes, guards and cares for its convcts. The state feeds them on good beefsteak and biscuits, giv- ing them plenty to eat, furnishes them with all their mining kit, including tools, dynamite, caps, powder and everything that the union miner furnishes when he goes in to dig coal at a certain price per ton.
 The state guarantees that each man shall dig four tons of coal per day. so il is seen that there is little difference to the company between free labor and paying $2.25 per day for convicts. Under the Bessemer's companys contract it only calls for 200 men. The state has to keep all the men healthy, and when one be- comes sick substitute goes in. Women,

The Agony Of
 Impure Blood
Can Be Readily Relieved By Using Stuart's Calcium Waters
 After Meals.

Impure blood causes plmples, letter, brash, scaly skin, periods of intense itching, eczema and many other pain ful and discomforting skin afflictions.
 Purify the blood and in short time the skin clears itself of the dead and waste deposits fostering and irrita- tion cease and clear, white and healthy skin appears.
 Most people attempt to cure pimples and skin eruptions with exterior appli- cations, such as salves, lotions, plas- ters, etc. This method only drives the irritation elsewhere and serves at best but temporary relief.
 Calcium Sulphide is a blood purifier prescribed by almost every physician and is the most powerful eradicator known to science
 Stnart's Calcium Waters contain the full strength of this wonderful blood fnvigorator, which is often weakened from corporations, decay or chemical change in other methods of preparing. Calcium Sulphide is difficult to pre- serve and hence the failure of many druggists and chemists to hold 1t full strength. But when this can be done Calcium Sulphido drives impurities from the blood in less time than any other known substance
 Stuart's Calcium Waters also contain Quassia. Golden Seal and Eucalyptus each one a great blood purifier and stimulator An alternative and laxative Is also combined with the other ingred- tents to enable nature to remove more quickly all irritating and infectious mat ter from the system in a natural and easy manner
 Go to your druggist today and ask his opinion of Stuart's Calcium Wa CTS. They sell for 5Oc per package or send us your name and address and we will send you trial package by mail free Address F. A. Stuart Co. 175 Stuart bldg. Marshall. Mich.

i old men and sick are not included in the contract.
 In the case of the county convicts the Tennessee company bids SIP a convict per month The company has to feed clothe and furnish all the kit, nurse when sick and take all women and children as well as old men.
 However, the difference is so very large that the county Board of Revenue re- fuses to let the county convicts for such small price. The board has not received single new bid, and Is preparing to work the convicts on the roads immedi- ately. In fact, the board has been work ing on these plans quietly for several days.
 President Badham of the Bessemer com pany said yesterday that while he is pay ing higher than was ever paid in that small seam before, 1t was nothing exor- bitant, and his company would be able to succeed with them as well others have. Counsel for the Tennessee company did not care to discuss it's county bid, al- though 1t Is said that they intend to raise the figure slightly.
