There is one great remedy fol
this evil-careful shopping.
But careful shopping is a prob
lem to some people. They begin
at the end and quit before they
reach the beginning.
They should turn to the local
paper. 1t is the shoppers best
friend.
1t faithfully portrays the en-
terprise of the community, lists
in its advertising columns the
offerings of live merchants, and
blazes the path to the stores Of
best values.
1t gives them shopping infor'
nation which otherwise it would
take time to acquire, and much
which often they would never

Now is the time to figure with

How Far Is Ellsworth Falls?
Not So Far That the Statements
OF Its Residents Cannot Be
Verified.

Rather an interesting case has been
developed in Ellsworth Falls. Being so
near by, it is well worth publishing here.
The statement is sincere-the proof con-
vincing:
Mrs. R. l. Moore, Ellsworth Falls, Me-,
says: ''Some years ago, came home from
the hospital where 1 had undergone an
operation. All that winter 1 was miser-
able with a severe attack of kidney
trouble. The pain in my back was al
most unbearab BILE and medicine and doc
tors treatment failed to do me any good.
Doan's Kidney Pills, however, went di-
rectly to the seat of the trouble, not only
curing the backsche but strengthening
my kidneys and improving my condition
in every way"
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't simply
ask for kidney remedy-get Doan's Kid
ney Pills-the same that Mrs. Moore had.

Santa Fe, Oct 3.-Not day with

out at least IL per cent of sunshine
and two days with 100 per cent, such
is the weather bureau record for Sep
tember. Yet, this was IA per cent
below the normal of the past "a years
No wonder New Mexico is called the
Sunshine state. The average for the
month Just past was GAL per cent as
against rs per cent for the normal
Sixteen days were classed as cloudy,
II as partly cloudy and three as clear.
September also was warmer than
customary. The highest temperature
recorded was SO degrees on Septem-
her IS, the lowest Al degrees on Sep
te ember 23, monthly extreme range
OF only SO degrees. Surely, for equit-
ableness, New Mexico climate can not
be beat. The mean maximum tenn
perature was 74.4 degrees, the mean
minimum 51.5 degrees and the mean
SO degrees, which is "a degrees above
the normal of the past 40 years.
There were eight days that had
more than .O1 of an inch precipitation.
The greatest precipitation for any "a
consecutive hours was 81 of an inch
and the total for the month was only
SO of an inch as against an average
fer the past 30 years Of 1.64 inches.
Nevertheless, there is still an excess

New Year.
