.LIV-tR-lAX FOR
SICK HEADACHE

1t is Your Inactive Liver and Cloggec
Bowels. Liv-ver-Lax is the Panacea
for all Liver Troubles and
Constipation.
You are bilious, your thirty feet Of
bowels become clogged up, poisonous
gases are generated in the bowels and
thrown out in the system, your head
aches, you have chills and fever, you
are nervous and i'll tempered, your sys-
TEN is full of bile not properly passed
off. Your disordered stomach and bill
iousness cannot be regulated until you
remove the cause. 1t is not your stom-
ach's fault. Your stomach is as good
as any.
Try LIV-VER LAX, it is purely veg
etable. Do not resort to harsh physics
and calomel which ruins the system
and softens the bone.
LIV-VER-LAX acts gently, yet posi-
lively on the liver, stomach and bowels,
is pleasant to take and does not grippe
or sicken. 1t recommended for grown
ups and babies all alike.
You will be surprised at the amount
of bile a bottle of LIV-VER-LAX will
clean out of your system. Buttry a regu-
lar SOC or Sl.00 bottle at S. l.. Raines
drug store on our guarantee and be
convinced.

age increases are given from the Mis-
sissippi Valley states and the southwest

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Trinidad Is the most i'm
portant coal-producing state west OF
Mississippi river and ranks seventh
among all the states The coal mined
in 1912 was 10,977.S24 short tons, an
increase OF S20,44l tons over 1911, ac-
cording to Z. w. Parker, OF the United
States Geological Survey at Washing
ton. The value increased from VA
747,764 to 316,345.336. This Increased
production may be attributed to the
bountiful crops and general prosper
ity throughout the state. which nat
urally created an improved condition
in the coal trade, particularly in the
last four months OF the year. There
was much complaint OF deficiencies in
labor and car supplies.
The coal-mining industry OF Colora-
do was singulariy free from labor
troubles in 1912. an output of pracu-
cally IL ,000,0 900 tons being won with

In quality the Goals OF COLORADO
range from subbituminous (black lis-
niteD, in the Denver region, through
various grades of bituminous, includ-
ing the high-grade coking coal of the
Trinidad and Glenwood Springs fields,
to true anthracite, in the Crested
Butte and Yampa fields. Some of the
coal beds OF Colorado attain enor-
nous thickness. This is especially
true in the Glenwood Springs Held,
and some of the beds in the North
Park field are also said to be OF great
thickness The totaI area undcrlain
by coal in Colorado is estimated at
17,l3O square miles, and about sixty
per cent OF that entire area is be-
lieved to contain coal that is workable
under present conditions. The state
contains areas embracing over 1000
square miles about which little is
known, but which may contain work
able coal, and nearly 5000 square
miles in which the coal lies under
heavy cover and is therefore not work
able at present.
In point of production the most i'm
portant area is the Trinidad field. un-
