Do You Suffer from
Splitting Headachesf

If headache sufferers would do little
hard thinking, they would surely learn that
headaches of all kinds are simply results
- warning signals - of far more serious
trouble. Usually headache means that
the blood and nerves are poisoned by an
inactive and sluggish liver. Don't become
one of the habitual headache sufferers who
explain their condition by saying: "Oh,
am subject to headaches. | always get
headache if l get excited or it is too noisy
There is no need of it either. Stop taking
dangerous headache powders, and put your
liver in good shape. SO that it will carry off
foul secretions and remove properly the
bile elements from the blood by taking
Smiths Pineapple and Butternut Pills
These little pills are Natures true laxa-
tive, and positive cure for a torpid liver.
They assist digestion, unload the bile

They form no habit. You should always
keep them on hand. These little Vege-
table Pills will ward off many ills.

ALLEGED PILfERING
 OF SECRET REMEDY
For the Cure of the Liquor Habit in
 Three Days.

An injunction suit was filed in the district court yesterday by the Gatlin Institute Company of America against the Neal Institute Company of the United States, the Neal Institutes Company, Benjamin F. Neal, Ernest B. Stiles, J. F. Bruce and Andrew F. Mapel and branches of the Neal In- stitute company located in eighteen cities, from Boston to Portland, Ore.
 The plaintiff is the proprietor of formula for the liquor habit cure and for the three-day cure for the liquor habit. which it is alleged the defend ants are using for the same purposes The Neal Institute company was or ganized under the laws of this terri tory, though the original articles were in Minnesota, though a copy of the amended articles has never been filed in this territory.
 The plaintiff asks for an injunction to restrain the defendants from mak- ing use of the formula and asks for damages in the sum of $100000. Wal ter B. Lowry of Denver. a member of the plaintiff company, accompanied by F. w Sanborn of Denver. has been in the city a couple of days in the

SERIOUSLY INJURED
 BY MOVING MACHINE
The Frequent Experiences of William
 GoIIing With Team of Mules.

William Ceiling is lying at the Sis ters' hospital uncertain whether he will ever be able to walk again He was brought there on Friday night. with the tendons of both ankles sev- cred by the knives of a mower.
 He is the owner of a part of the Bradley ranch, southwest of the city. He had not moved there, but on Fri day he went there to mow some weeds The moving machine was drawn by a team of mules which had already established d reputation for running away without provocatiOn.
 There was a horse running about the field and now and then approach ed. dangerously close to the mower. once Golling got off the machine to drive it away. He alighted on the ground in front of the cutter bar, and at that instant the mules ran away again He was dragged for some dis tance before being released from the knives.
 At the hospital it was found nee essary to make long incisions into the calves of his legs to secure the ends of the tendons, which had been drawn up after they were severed.
 only d few days ago he had mar row escape from serious injury while working with this team. That time he was raking hay. He got down in front of the rake to adjust something, when the mules ran away. He could not climb back into the seat, but managed by holding to the double tree to keep up with the procession until the mules began kicking, when he dropped to the ground and was carried along by the rake teeth. Thus he was rolled over and over until at length he was dumped along with other accumulations of the rake. The points of the teeth in parting from him were dragged across his back, inflicting long lacerations.
