Eresh Air in YNinter.

The Charleston Mail points out
the great medicinal value of fresh
air in the winter time in the follow
ing interesting editorial:
In the summer time every one
pants for a breath of fresh air, In
the winter time. some persons shun
it as they would shun smallpox. or
the plague. Yet, fresh air is as vital
to the human system in winter
time as in summer time. The lack
of it is the prime cause of tubercu-
Iosis. Persons who have not ac-
customed themselves 10 sleep the
coolest nights with the windows
open, but with the beds so arranged
that the occupants are not in a
draft, do not know what the real
luxury of sleep is. Persons una
fratd OF fresh air do not arise with
that dull. listless, tired, draggy
feeling, unless something is very
wrong with their liver and their di-
gestion. They also find their bodies
stand the raw temperament OF ex-
posure better, and they are not con-
stantIy shivering over fire, and sell
dom have colds.
Keeping the feet dry and being
careful not to put on damp or cold
clothing, is one way to keep on colds
and to preserve health. An overcoat
left in the cold and thoroughly
chilled. donned by the wearer who
has Just come from warm room,
with his body heated, draws from the
body at once enough heat to raise
its own temperature to correspond
and is a fruitful source of chills and
colds, and grip. Putting on clothes
that have been left in some cold
closet for days, and that from 50
leaving have become saturated with
moisture. without careful drying
and warming, are also the cause Of
many OF those colds about which
persons remark. II can not conceive
how / caught it, A disordered liver
or Indigestion. by thinning the blood
and not supplying proper nourtsh-
ment, always invites colds and the
grip.
In fact care in the use OF ones
clothing that it be not cold and
damp. Keeping the feet well shod,
attention to the working OF ones
physical body, and getting fresh air
in plenty is one OF the very best
WAYS to secure and retain health,
is worth tons of medicines, and
saves Doctors bills.

There has been much difficulty
throughout the county in getting
the count made satisfactorily and a
ntlTnibeP OF ballots that were counted
are being opposed by those adversely

ballots cast with cross both above

there is a difference Of only few
! votes In the count for them and
their opponents. and they will insist
on a fair count in every instance
Tor in some cases there is diner
T enc OF but from two to four votes
between the candidates.
IA rational Interpretation OF the
law is that all such ballots as are
described in the news item should
have been thrown out as the cleo

slightest idea OF the intention OF

both tickets may have been made up

Settling For
New Lands

Last Thursday, the 3lst, Mrs. Fer
guson issued As money orders, repre-
senting $4,4SO. This nearly all came
through the Reclamation Service and
was sent to Carson for water pay
mentS. For about two weeks prior
to this the stream of money going
from here to the capital averaged
about $1,000 per day, making in the
neighborhood of $4,000 in the last
half of the month. aside from what
was sent by registered mail and ex-
press.
While the abstract has not yet
been received from Carson by the
Reclamation officials, and therefore
no absolute data upon which to base
an estimate, yet it is believed that the
homesteaders were able to pay up
much better than was expected, for
it is known that many were fortunate
enought to find means of raising the
money who believed that nothing but
cancellation stared them in the face
Some who found it impossible to
meet the payments entered appeals
and would at least. gain more time,
thus giving them an opportunity to
raise the money.-Churchill Eagle

Dead Body
In The TruCkee

While standing on the south bank
of the Truckee River fishing opposite
the Reduction works, about 20 yards
below the cattle bridge in the east
ern end OF this city yesterday morn
ing, Edward F. Reed and Sylvan Up
son saw the body of a man floating
down the river They endeavored to
reach the body with their fishing
lines but were unsuccessful.
Reed says that the body was float
;ng face downward and that the arms
were outstretched on the water. He
also says that the man wore a khaki
coat and pants of the same color. He
was without a hat and the body ap-
peared to be badly swoolen.
Not long ago sheep herder was
knocked off railroad bridge above
Verdi, and his body was never re-
covered. 1t is possible that it was
the body of this man that Upson and
Reed saw and tried to rescue from
the swift waters of the Truckee-Ga-
zette.

CANDIDACY IS
ANNOUNCED
Judge Massey Prevailed on to
Take Republican
Nomination

Judge Massey, one of the he's,
known public men of Nevada, has
announced his candidacy for Gov
ernor Of Nevada, subject to the Re-
publican electors. The news of his
announcement is not surprise. as
trends have been after him for some
time to enter the political arena.
Judge Massey, who has served the
state not only as legislator but as
Supreme Judge, is known as one of
the fair minded men of Nevada. He
was elected to Office by the Silver
Party people, mainly of Democrats
origin, and left the party and office
with one of the cleanest records of
any of the Office holders.
The announcement of his candi-
dacy meets the approval of a large
following of friends. and he will give
any other Republican candidate
hard fight for the honors at the pri- !
maries.
AS the Judge is running on the Re-
publican ticket this time he will face
IN opponent from the Democratic
-anks. This is only one drawback to
he Judges political aspirations and
hat is that he is tacking boards on
he wrong political fence to ever
lope to complete his corral
