In very brief time S. S. S. has the

that remarkable changes are observed.
All eruptive places heal, mysterious

from head to foot there is conscious
sensation Of renewed health. That
strange, moody, morbid feeling of de-

responds with surprising energy.
From the fact that S. S. S. is purely
a botanical preparation, it is accepted
by the weakest stomach and has great
tonic influence in all the digestive or

medicine, and is prepared direct from
native materials gathered by the ex-

Not one drop of minerals or drugs is
used in its preparation. Ask for s. S. S.

Timber Sale

Athol A. Wynne, of the office
of Silviculture, left Albuquerque
recently to examine an import
ant block of timber valued at
more than half a million dollars
within the Sitgreaves National
Forest. This timber has already
been advertised for sale at a
price of $3.50 for the first five
years and So for the next five
years, but the company inter-
ested in financing the railroad
and milling operations was una
BILE to raise the requisite amount
of capital. Mr.. Wynne's exami-
nation is to determine whether
the prices at which the timber
was advertised is equitable;
whether the boundaries are logi-
cal and convenient, and as a re-
suit of his appraisal it is hoped
to put the sale on a thoroughly
sound business basis. From the

Death of a Little Child
[CONRTIBUTEDl

Little Florence Penrod, aged four
years and four months, was laid to rest
May 25, 1914, dying with long drudg-
ing lung disease and measles. She is
leaving behind mary relatives to mourn
her poor little loss. Her lonely par
ents and sisters, Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph
and Annie Penrod, Icephene, Lila,
Fern and Rose. are left behind to miss
the presence of their daring Florle,
who upon the oath ult. was called to
leave them. She had for three long
years suffered from lung trouble and
it was thought was outgrowing it when
she was taken with long dreaded
disease, the measles, and after days of
hard struggling and suffering, God
took \her to rest. She tried hard
to stay with us but God knew best and
He took her to the other side to meet
her many relatives who have passed
on before.
The funeral services were held May
25th at the home of the lonely parents.
Bishops Larson and Hansen spoke
many comforting words to the be-
reaved ones. The funeral was well
attended, under the condition of so
many others of Pinetop and Lakeside
having the measles.
All of our hearts full of sympathy
certainly go out to the lonely ones
who are called to mourn the death of
their darling.
Your little rosebud has left you,
With her heart so pure and true.
A precious one from US is gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.
God, in His wonderful grace,
His wisdom and His love,
Has called her to better place
In heavily courts above.
Tho dim the eyes that beamed so mild
And stilled the pulsing heart;
And lips that oft in love have smiled
Can now no smiles impart.
Dearest sister, thou has left US
Peaceful in thy grave below;
Thou no more wilt join our number;
Thou no more our songs shall know.
All her suffering now is over,
