Litigation has caused the sus-
pension of operation at the Mineral

ated by the Mid Colorado Mines
company. A settlement is antici-
pated in the very near future, when
it is hoped work will be resumed on

The Hope Hose fire compouy
met during the past week and
elected the following officers: VIM.
Nelson, foreman; Harry Morris.
assistant foreman; Fred Nelson,
secretary and Ed. Herbst, treas
urer. On Tuesday night the Old
Missouri company elected Arthur
johnson, foreman; Lynn McFad-
den, assistant foreman; Fred Leach,
treasurer and Ray Noone, secre-
tary. AS all of the different COM
panies have now organized, in the
near future they will combine and
give big dance and supper. For
years the fire companies, have been
neglected. but with the capable
men now in charge of the different
companies, in conjunction with
Chief Cottingham, there should be
something doing in the line of
amusements during the winter
months, to say nothing of the
system which will be manifested
when next called upon to respond
to fire alarm. While no criticism
is cast, nor can be passed upon the
manner in which the old members
have fought each and every fire
during the past, under individual
leaders better results will surely
be obtained.

FOR MANY YEARS
WELL-KN0WN MAN
HAD CATARRH-BAD
Began with Catarrh Of Nose
and Throat, Later 1t Spread
to His Stomach. Dreco
Brings Relief.

The owners Of Dreco do not make
any extravagant claims for what il will
do, but publish the statements of well
known and reliable persons who have
actually taken the medicine, and re-
ceived benefits from its use. For in
stance the one here given from Mr.. M.
G. Saum, Of LA East Ave, a highly re-
spected citizen Of Hagerstown, Nd.
he says, After many years of suf-
fering from catarrh of the nose throat
and stomach, and having spent many a
dollar on different treatments. I began
taking Dreco and three bottles have
brought me much relief. 1 am 7s years
old. and a friend met me today on the
street and remarked about how much
better 1 was looking. The dropping into
my throat from my nose has almost
ceased, that continual dull pain in my
head is ali gone, my stomach is stronger
and never have any gas to form as III
used to do. My appetite is better ana
now sleep sound. 1 expect to take
several more bottles of Dreco and firmly
believe 1 will be entirely cured Of all
my catarrh."
Words like these and from many Others
will do much toward convincing the pub
lie Of the real merits of this new herbal
system tonic.
The value Of Sound mind and sounu
body need not be preached to people
OF education and understanding. It is
only necessary to show them how this
healthy condition may be obtained and
preserved.
Dreco is a splendid combination or
the juices of twelve different roots,
herbs, barks and berries. 1t will re-
