FOUND RIGHT PATH
After a False Start.

TN 1890 I began to drink coffee
cat that time was healthy and en-
joyed life. At first I noticed no bad
effects from the indulgence bat in
course of time found that various
troubles were coming upon me.
"Palpitation of the heart took untS
itself sick and nervous headaches, kid.
ney troubles followed and eventually
my stomach became so deranged that
even light meal caused me serious
distress. ,ig ~
"Our physicians prescriptions failed
to help me and then I dosed myself
with patent medicines till was thor
oughly disgusted and hopeless.
Finally began to suspect that cof-
fee was the cause Of my troubles. lex
perimented by leaving it of, except
for one small cup at breakfast. This
helped some but did not altogether re-
heve my distress. It satisfied me,
however, that was on the right track.
$50 gave up coffee altogether and
began to use Postum. In ten days I
found myself greatly improved, my
nerves steady, my head clear, my kid
neys working better and better. my
hearts action rapidly improving, my
appetite improved and the ability to
eat hearty meal without subsequent
suffering restored to me. And this con-
dition remains.
Leaving OF coffee and using Postum
did this, with no help from drugs, as !

Thought He Felt a Hop.

An Irishman went into a public
house one day and asked for mug of
beer in great hurry, stating that he
was so dry that he thought he could
drink gallon. The publican told him
If he would drink it at one draught,
without taking the measure away from
his lips, he should have it for nothing.
"Agraid," said Pat, "and be the
howly Saint Pathrick I'll do that
same"
The landlord then drew a gallon Of
ale, and slyly slipping red herring
into the measure, handed it to Pat.
who eagerly raised 1t to his mouth
and drank away until the measure was
almost perpendicular. The publican's
eyes followed its motion in astonish-
ment, and, looking in it, he exclaimed.

"Pat, didn't you feel something go

drank it?"

this case. OF the $501 1,S55.39 recov.

the Supreme Court of the United
States allowed 1.054.2S for Carter's

All the proceedings in the courts in
the Carter case have been terminated,
but all of the assets turned over to
the government have not been con
verted into cash.. The total amount OF
cash in the Carter assets turned in Is
$227,S52. The balance is in real es
tate in New York and New Jersey
and certain securities in Georgia. They
now are in process of being sold. In
every case the assets corralled had
been transferred by Greene, Gaynor
and Carter to other persons or held
by persons for them in concealment
The tracing of the assets was most

tie of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. After
taking the contents of the first bottle felt
greatly relieved and decided to continue it.

A Sandwich Filling.

A delicious filling for sandwiches or
crackers is made by mixing equal
parts of cream cheese and snappy
cheese with French dressing to Q
smooth paste, then stirring in it
chopped red peppers or chopped
olives. This paste should be very
creamy and put on thickly, at least
quartersof an inch. 1t is nice between
salted waters or on thin rounds of
brown or rye bread.

Risked Punishment for Doa.

A pleasing story of a prisoners love
for his dog comes from North Yaki-
ma, Wash. Michael Short, sentenced
to the street chain gang to work out
his fine, escaped with two other men
recently, but somewhat to the surprise
of his overseers turned up again for
work the next morning. Mike ex-
planned to the officer that acts as fore
man that he had left his little dog
tied beneath his bed at home and that
he had stolen away to nberate It, as It
had been three days without food or
water.

Sounds Almost True.

The following is a real fish story:
Almost frozen and dying Of hunger
we saw a wounded whale struggling
on the ice We were SO hungry we
could hardly refrain for eating it raw;
but upon my suggestion we proceeded
to fry the whale entire:-we did so
and found its flesh as tender as sal
mon. How did we fry it? Where
did we get the frying pan? Why, I'll
tell you. We started fire on the
ice and let it burn till it became red
hot, and then we rolled the fish on
it. and in an hour it was done to a
turn.

JUST FIGURE 1T OUT.

Sometimes it pays the dealer in
mining shares to sit down with a
pencil an piece of paper and null
tiply the selling price Of the active
issues by the number of shares
outstanding. The result is the total
valuation of the properties consid-
cred.
A little more figuring gives the
calculator the net earnings required
to yield normal return on the in
vestment. Such an elementary
precaution, one might imagine,
would never be neglected by any
trader who had outgrown knee
pants.
But the fact is that comparative
ly few buyers take the trouble to
examine the basis upon which prices
are made.
A surprisingly large number act
as if it were matter of small
consequence whether an issue is
capitalized at one hundred thousand
or one million shares.
Experience has led many officer;
of mining properties to declare thai
the public, although keenly sensi
tive to assessments, is imperviou'

! debasing of stock by the increased

course, that this view is RADICAL!

SALT LAKE WILL RUN
AGRICULTURAL CAR

San Bernardino Sun says that the
Salt Lake railroad management has
become SO favorably impressed with
the agricultural possibilities of the
desert section through which it runs,
that the company will soon put
into service an agricultural car pat
termed after the cars for years main
tanned by the Southern Pacific,
through the Salt Lakes venture will
be studied carefully to meet the
needs of the desert country, there
by placing at the disposition of the
ranchers of this locality expert in
formation as to how best to bring
their lands to the highest state of
cultivation.
The interest taken by the rail-
road is certain to aid materially in
settling up the desert country, the
result being that the Salt Lake
is destined to traverse a territory
which, for numerous miles, will re-
turn rich revenue to the road.

BILL TO AMEND PRESENT MEAS
URE REGARDING RESIDENCE
TO BE INTRODUCED.

CARSON, New, Jan. 23.-Will the
present legislature repeal the divorce
law? is a question that has been
asked many times during the pres
ent session. Inquiries have been
made and the different members as
a rule are noncommittal. However,
several of the representatives from
the southern country have express
ed views that do not coincide with
those of the Washoe delegations,
and it is probable that measure
making it necessary for twelve
month residence before a decree can
be applied for, will be introduced.
Just who will father the bill is a
matter of doubt, but it is rumored
that one of the assemblymen from
the desert section will stand as the
sponsor.
In regard to the new gambling
bill, the southern people have said:
Reno robbed us of our county
revenue, viz, gaming license, and
now in return the Riverside city
must stop its immoral divorce rev.
enue, which in the yearly aggre-
gate totals over 100000 to the
business houses and lawyers Of
Reno. The southern taxpayers now

PRIEST TRYING
TO SETTLE UP
Mill MIDDLE

The mill property known as the
Nevada Reduction company and
managed by J.,V. Priest, after many
trials and tribulations, has landed
in the courts. When Mr., Priest
undertook the rehabilitation of this
property, as the Post understands,
he informed his financial backs in
the East that $4,000 would put the
mill in running order. They ac-
cepted the estimate and he went
ahead with the work. A force of
men was engaged, and G. B. Logue,
a very competent mill-man, was
placed in charge. From the time
the reconstruction of the mill was
started until the present time, lit
tie wages have been paid to any
of the attaches of the works.
All the force employed had per-
feet faith In the outcome, and were
willing to wait until the mill was
running for their wages, and some
of them have more than four
months wages due. The men were
all experienced in the mining IL
dustry, and after looking over the
camp and investigating the leases,
they were satisfied that with the
mill, running, their wages would be
assured; but the repairs to the mill
eat up the $4,000 in no time, and
the mill was not any nearer run
ming than 1t was when they started.
In the meantime a close inspec-
ton of the mill showed thai MOI
