mobiles but for heavy wagon traffic.
Now an extensive trip from Nevada
into adjacent states is regarded as be-
ing just a little more out of the ordi-
nary than a trip by rail. and nearly
as certain of safe and timely arrival.
There will be more winter travel
by automobile in Reno and vicinity
this year than YER before. There are
several reasons for this. The roads
are much better and there are more
machines being operated with self
starting devices than heretofore.
Roads are of the first consideration
in auto travel. After one has adjust
ed himself 10 cold weather he doesn't
mind a mid-winter ride in a closed
car If the roads are good. But even
II he can house himself into a warm

chine is being punished by miry roads
or is being pounded to pieces on rocks
and frozen projections will deter him
from every trip that he can possibly
avoid.

pIITE GIRLS WEAR
VALUABLE LOST GEMS.

Mrs. Joseph d. Redding. wife of
the attorney and daughter-in-law of
the author of "Natoma.' the Mary
Garden opera. lost her handbag con-
tanning s1400 worth of jewelry and
$500 in coin, and and lost ii for just
one day. says the San Francisco
Chronicle. She suffered much ankle
y, of course. but her anxiety was
more than offset by the in~extinguish-
able glory. wonderment and bar
barian joy the finding of the jewels
gave to two little Pah-Ute Indian
girls. of Montello. Nevada.
When Mrs. Redding arrived
at the Palace Sunday night, via the
Overland, she discovered that she had
lost her handbag, and remembered
that she had left the train at Monticello
to stroll on the station platform.
She Immediately notified Patrick
J.. Kindelon. chief special agent OF
the Southern Pacific, who detailed
Special Agent II. n. Carbon to search
for the missing v~aluables. When
Carbon got OF the train at Monticello
what should he see but two little
Pah-Ute girls strutting like little
peacocks up and down the station
wearing proudly displayed the Red
ding jewelry. They tearfully return
ed the trinkets and the money. Nov
Mrs. Redding declares, she will see
that the Indian girls are properly re-
warded for the sacrifice OF surrender

SNOW ENDS NEyADA-CALI-
FORNIA TOURIST TRAFFIC.

The storm last week put an end to
automobile travel across the range
and into California by way Of True
kee, Placerville and Yuba Pass, says
the Reno Gazette. Thursday morn
ing two cars made an effort 10 get to
Truckee, one of them having started
out with the determination of cross
ing the range by the way of Truckee,
Bonner lake and the summit. but
neither OF them reached Truckee.
They found snow drifts TO a depth of
several feet long before they came in
sight Of Truckee and both turned
back and made immediate arrange
ments % ship their cars from Reno
10 Sacramento.
The tourist season so far as il af-
feeted Nevada-California trips was
unusually long this year. The sum-
init road was open several weeks
earlier than usual and the season
was weeks late in closing. The roads
from Nevada TO the coast were better
than in many years, the mild winter
of last year and almost total absence
of rainfall in the early spring and
summer having protected them from
washouts.
Nothing but several weeks of un-
usually warm weather would clear
the snow from the summit now suf-
iciently to make 1t passable for motor
cars. The first snow fall this week
left IL inches at Truckee and two
feet at the summit. with drifts over
the road in many places from three
to four feet deep. Driving a car
through heavy snow is not merelysa
serious hardship on the car itself but
OIL narrow moutain roads is highly
dangerous as It Is impossible to To-
cate the roadway with any degree of
certainty.
Nevada has not only seen more
transcontinental tourist travel this
year than ever before. but she has
contributed herself more extensively
to the tourist travel. A few years ago
a trip ACROSS the mountains into Cali
fornia by motor car was a matter for
serious consideration. great prepare
ton and much conversation after
ward. Really. such trips were mat
tiers of more than ordinary considera-
ton then. for the motor car lacked
much Of being the highly perfected
mechanism that it Is today and high

GOLD STRIKE NEAR OLD PIoCHE

miles east of Panaca and eight miles
from the main line of the Salt Lake
route. is the Gene of the latest Ne

the new find will prove to be is only
conjecture. However. the past few

Spring and claims have been located

The original discovery was made a
few weeks ago by ". s. Crumley, a

ground staked out for a proposed

OF eight OF ten feet and which can be
traced along the strike for several

 Dr. Rendon is general attorney for the Commission appointed by the gov ernrnent of Yucatan to regulate the si- sal hemp market of that state, where three-fourths of the entire population are engaged directly or indirectly in the sisa1 hemp industry. The Com missions main object has been to. break up the monopoly of the hene- quep, or ssisaI hemp, market, which pr. Rendon said had been in existence for the past twelve years in the inter est of the International Harvester Company and the Plymouth Cordage Company of assachusetts and which he declared had restrained the people of Yucatan from enjoying economic independence.
 It was through capital from South ern bankers and business men that the government Comn1issfon in Yucatan had been able to fight the monopoly, and aside from thanking Southerners for their assistance. pr. Rendon said that this aid was concrete il1ustra- tion of the way in which the American people could help Mexico now that the revolution was happily nearing tri- umphant terrnination.''

STILL EXPERIMENTING.

Joseph G Cannon's sapient conclu-
sion as to the recent elections is that
the republicans are going to win in
1915. not as a result Of any strength
shown by them this year but because
the defeat Of woman suffrage proves
that the people do not care to engage
in any further experiments.
Everybody who knows Mr. CanEon's
section Of the republican party will
recognize at once the bearing OF this
remark When she country wearies OF
novelties and uncertainties il natural
ly falls into the arms Of the standpat-
ters aud the allied interests that are
behind them. In accepting rule Of that
kind there is no more experimentation
than there is in jumping in front Of a
subway express. Both are sure things,
SAYS the New York World.
We do not agree with Mr., Cannon,
however. in his estimate Of the woman
suffrage vote. When, at the first OPP
portunity to express themselves, con-
siderably more than 100000 men in
four Of the original states vote in ia
vor Of extending the ballot to women,
the demonstration in behalf Of inno-
walton must be accepted az very i'm
pressive. As the standpat vote in the
same states three years ago did not
reach that figure. we feel in duty bound
to warn Mr.. Cannon that the age Of ex-
perimeuts has not yet ended.

HEALTH TALKSYo
William Brady,M.D.
Who Owns the Prescription?

A prescription is a written order
from the physician to the pharmacist.
which directs the pharmacist what
medicines to supply and what direc-
tons he shall write upon the label In
the absence of 4 specific order to the
contrary the druggist has no right to
refill a prescription for the patient
whose name appears upon it; he has
no right TO fiji it at all for another per-
son who fancies he has the same dis
ease.
Of course person has a right to
copy prescription from any source
available to him and have it filled by
a druggist, but when the druggist at
taches some physicians name to the
label who has never attended or ex-
amined the person purchasing the
medicine, that is an injustice II the
prescription happens TO be the wrong
medicine-what is one mans medicine
is often another mans poison-then it
is not right to lay it up against the
physician who originally wrote the
prescription. Copying prescriptions
is mighty precarious habit anyway.
Doctors are VIGOROUSLY bad writer's:
their cabalistic signs and abbrevia-
tons are often misinterpreted and
sometimes deplorabie results follow.
The reason why formal prescrip-
tons are written in Latin, rather than
English, is that all scientific names
are in Latin. Further. Latin is a dead
language which never changes: 1t is
universal all doctors and scientific
men the world over understand more
or less Latin II is retained in pre-
scriptions for the same reason that
Latin is retained in the phraseologv
OF the law and in the mass of the
Catholic church. Not for the purpose
OF coneeaiing the names of medicines
from patients, as Is sometimes alleged,
for many patients know more Latin
than the doctor knows.
Your prescription is yours to keen.
