daughter, Terisina.
Yesterday afternoon the man brought
his little brood across the river to
spend the afternoon with the godmother
OF his youngest child-Mrs Annunzata
Papa, at No. 50 Roosevelt street. About
5 o'clock little Terisina was sent down

rckers worth of candy. She failed to
come back and the father, going to
search for her, could get no trace.
GiOiano denied that he had received
any threatening letters, He said he
came from Rome, where Black Hand
practices are unknown and, besides, he
was only poor workingman who could
never raise any ransom, no matter how
small.

THE CAUSE OF COLDS.
Good Advice Regarding the Pre-.

II people would only properly fortity and
strengthen their system, about sS's OF
coughs, colds and pneumonia might be
cyoldad. These troubles are simply the
- 4 o. weakness which produces q
,.,drrhal condition Of the mucous men,
brane, which Is as an internal skin OF the
body. When this skin Is weakened. 1t be-
comes infected with germs which are car
ried through the system by the blood
These parasites attack and break these
delicate tissues and set up soreness
which produce what Is in reality an exter-
nal scrofula.
The only thing that will cure coughs and
colds and prevent pneumonia Is a medical
,ion which IL absorbed aud carried by the
blood so that the diseased membrane Is
disinfected, cleaned, sOothed and healed.
We have a remedy which We honestly
believe iniallihle and indispensable for the
prevention and cure OF coughs, colds and
all catarrhal conditions. II Is the prescrip-
ton OF q famous physician, who has an
enyiahle reputation OF % years OF cures
gained through the use OF this medicine.
We promise to either effect n cure In every
case or make no charge for the medicine.
We urge everybody in New York who has
need OF such a medicine 10 try ReXall
Mucu-Tone.
1t stands to reason that we could not
afford to make such statements and give
our own personal guarantee to this remedy
II we were not absolutely positive that We
could substantate our claim In every par

should hesitate to accept our offer and try
II. We have two sizes Of ReXall Mucu.
Tone. Prices i0c. and Soc. Sometimes

general thing the most chronic case is

Two Kinds of Girls.

There are two kinds of girls in this
and every other community, says the
Oakesdale Tribune. One is the kind
that appears best abroad, the girls that
are good for parties, rides, visits, balls
and cards, and whose chief delight is
in such things. The other is the kind
that appears best at home, the girls
that are useful and cheerful in the
dining room, sick room and all the
precincts of home. They differ wide
" in character. One is often a tor
ment at home, the other a pleasure.
One is moth, consuming everything
about her; the other is a sunbeam,
dispensing light and gladness around
her pathway. The right education
will modify both a little, and thus
unite the good qualities of both in one.

Another nice real estate deal was
closed here late last week when the
Camas Prairie Land Co., sold the
Wise farm of 500 acres at the foot of
the mountain west of town to Henry
Rehder, of Missoula, Montana, for
S14, 500. The farm contains about
$40 acres of plow land, ESQ acres of
pasture and timber land, making it a
very desirable place for either farming
or dairying. MIR. Render is expected
back soon from Missoula with his
family and will take possession of his
new home at once. Messrs. Wise
and families will move to town to re-
side until fall when they will probably
90 to California to spend the winter
and may decide to locate there per-
manently. Cottonwood Chronicle.

The second shoot was at 20 birds
in which Turner beat Wade by one
bird.

camas Prairie Crop Conditions.

County Commissioner Won Bargen
was commenting on the agricultural
outlook last Saturday, while in the
Globe Office. He says he has been
here for thirty years, and has never
seen better crop prospect than
Camas Prairie now shows, and bar
ring damage from hail, there will be a
record breaking yield. Mr.. Won
Bargen suffered severely last year from
the hail storm, the third time in thirty
years, and bought up considerable
wheat, after his loss, at 60c. After
fattening fine bunch of hogs and
using the necessary amount for other
purposes, he sold the balance few
days since for S1.0212 per bushel,
almost breaking even on his last fall S
purchase. The agricultural POSSIBLE
tiles of Camas Prairie at the present
time are unsurpassed in any section
of the known world, and the man
who stays by it will be the winner in
the end.

Sheriff Byron, who recently re-
turned from his trip to St. Anthony,
with his bunch of incorrigable boys,
says he was never better pleased with
the results of his observations on a
trip than this one, and he advises that
all of the old timers rake together a
few necessary shekels and jump over
the state line for brief period, that
they may gain better idea of the rel
alive worth of this section and Others
on the outside. He says from Grange
vile to Spokane is the best country
on earth, and that it is at its very best
now with its vast green fields of grain
and prairieS studded with beautiful
flowers, and that Camas Prairies ma
t'ves can never appreciate the true
worth OF this country until they pei
a view of other boosted sections.

Watch for the Eclipse June 18th.

On Thursday, June 18th, there
will be an eclipse of the sun, visible
in high attitudes in this country. One
of the peculiar and unusual features of
this eclipse is that it will first be annular
then total and again in few seconds
annular. The latter term means that
the moon will obscure the center of
the sun disk, leaving a perfect circle
OF light surrounding the border.
