question, the most intelli-
gent conception and the
most enterprising endeav-
or ever put forth to master
the highest problem in Ra-
zor Strop manufacturing.
The Superior Razor Strop
has thrilled the shaving
public on two continents,
and has baffled the most
skilled artists in the Bar
bers' world. Buy one to-
day and make shaving a
pleasure. Write for our
Book on Facial Treatment,

We refer with pride to
our latest creation, The
Superior Razor strop,
which is a contaminated
achievement of a tonsor-
ial genius, and is the re-
suit of twenty years
trial, experimenting. and
practical knowledge. The
Superior Razor Strop
practically marks a new
era in American Razor
Strop manufacturing. The
method and care which is
exercised in the manufac-
ture of this Strop is the r
limit of human ingenuity.
One of the most benefi-
cial treatments is applied
to this production, which
is our secret chemical
mixture. This mixture
penetrates the air spaces
between the molecules

night, is about the biggest thing
that ever happened in this vicinity.
Senator McCandless was down to see
it yesterday afternoon and reports
there being enoug h water to irrigate
at least 160 acres of land with storing
it. aud the possibilities of the water
supply through conservation is un-
known. The new gusher attracted
large number of people yesterday
and several others drove down this
morning. 7 he water has now reach
ed the river and is helping to swell
the volume of aqua pura there. The
water is warm as 1t comes from the
we'll and the temperature makes 1t
excellent both for irrigation and
swimming. 1t is understood the

UNIQUE INDUSTRY CARRIED
ON IN FREMONT COUNTY

VN IN ] WkWsVNb VVVNI !
There is an industry in this county
that is in many respects unique and
It's existence unknown to the majority
Of the people riding in the county.
1t is nothing less than that Of mining
boulders, or "nigger heads, along
the river bank for shipment to the
cement works at Portland and Con-
crete to be used in the mills there az
an aid in crushing the rock from
which the cement Ia made.
A considerable number Of men are
regularly employed in the business
and they make from 80 to s5 a day.
according to their experience anG
skill In that line OF work.
They burrow under the bank of the
river for the most part and select
only those boulders that are round,
or nearly SO, and Of the required de.
gree of hardness. These men are
call led pebble pickers, and the
IN igger. heads' they market vary in
size from little fellows, an inch and
half or two inches in diameter to
those as large as oocoanut. They
are hard as adamant and are found to
be better and more durable than the
best chilled steel balls for the uses
to which they are put.
They are placed inside of the big
revolving drums at the cement max
ing mills and by the constant move
ment to which they are subjected
grind the rock containing the car
Donate lime into powder much more
rapidly than it could be done other
wise. When the boulders begin to
fiatten by usage they are taken out
aud thrown away, and others put in
their places. They are oomparati-
vely inexpensive and are very affica-
cious for the purpose.
There are good many "pebble
pickers" in tile vicinity OF. Texas
creek, Cotopaxi and other points
between here and Salida, and, as has
already been stated. they find the
employment remuneratlve one.
The business was formerly monopol-
ized by few contractors but the men
hired by them to do the work soon
got wise" to the fact that they could
make more money, by engaging in
the industry on their own account
and 1t is now conducted in the main
on individual responsibility.
Where the great store of boulders
found under the surface of the ground
throughout the Arkansas valley ori.
ginally came from is an interesting
geological story. They antedate by
many thousands Of years the advent
of Adam. having their beginning
away back in the dim mist Of geologic
antiquity and their birthplace in the
far north. perhaps within the Arctic
circle. They are found at great
depth in the earth and their history
Ia more wonderful than the greatest
romance ever conceived by the ina
gination. In sinking an artesian
we'll at Salida a few years ago the
drill penetrated to depth Of 1900
feet, but did not get through the sand
and boulder stratum.

UNCINARIASIS.

Whcn we feef sick there is always
a certain degree of satisfaction to be
derived from the ability to tell in
curing friends what ails us. II is
also very self-satisfylng If we can
give a name to the malady with
which We are troubled, instead OF
being compelled TO merely relate
tn symptoms Years ago when we
experienced abdominal pains, we
suffered from plain stomach ache.
Then some smart doctors discovered
that some OF the pains indicated APP
pendictis. and that disease became
very fashionable. stomach aches
were vulgar; appendicitis is bccom-
ing too common nowadays.
There is another disease from

THE NATIONS BIRTHDAY.

The American people will tomor-
row celebrate the 123rd anniversary
Of American independence. This
day should be observed by every
true American. In 1876 the United
states consisted of thirteen settled
colonies along the Atlantic Coast,
with a population Of hardly three
millions. Today we are reckoned
as one of the mightiest nations OF
the earth. God has smiled
upon our fortunes. Our coun-
try has been broadencd from
the Atlantic TO the Pacific; from the
great lakes to the Rio Grande.
Whatever we have undertaken has
prosrered. Whatever our hands
have touched has turned to gold
Ours is a country of representa-
tive Democracy in its truest sense.
Here religious freedom received its
first great incentive. A declaration
by the founders OF our government
that church and state should here
after be separate was something
new to the world, but the idea has
grow apace until 1t has been fol-
Lowell by almost every enlightened
natl on earth
Let all join in keeping in rever-
ence the nations holiday.
