ASK YOUR FRIEND.

There. is hardly a neighborhood in any city, town or hamlet in%the United States where women cannot be found who have derived. benefit from Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. For more than forty years this botanic remedy has been overcoming some of the worst cases of female ills. As one woman has found help she has told another, who has used it with the same result: so the use of this great medicine has spread from shore to shore by the recommendation of those who have found it good. Therefore, ask your neighbor, ct her tell you from experience the benefit which ailing women derive from the use of this famous medicine.-Adv.

 And yours," was the reply. Come. then!'
 He turned to the stairs, the pigeon still fondled in his arm. That bird-a white one, with slate blue tips to it's wings-never needed to labor again, for MT. Jefferson kept it during its life and long after its death.
 Come, now," he said as he began to descend the ladder once more. 'The bird was loosed yesterday, late in the afternoon. It has done it's sixty or seventy five miles an hour for us. counting out time lost in the night. The ship which brought this news docked at New York yesterday. The post stages carrying 1t hither cannot arrive before tomorrow. This is news the greatest~of news that we could have.

 Thomas Jefferson, more agitated than any man had ever seen him, dropped half trembling into his chair, his shag- gy red mane about his forehead, his long fingers shaking.
 'I give you my promise, MT. Jeffer- san," said Meriwether Lewis.

AUTO PARTY
HAS ACCIDENT

Martin Christensen and Paul
Chamison of this place had a narrow
escape from serious injury Sunday
when the formers Ford car did q
figure eight in the sand below Cradel-
baugh bride and turned bottom side
up. Mr.. Chamison has secretly
nursed desire to hold Lizzie" In
his arms and Sunday the opportunity
arrived. Returning from Carson
in Mr.. Christiansen's car, the roads
were SO hard and the motor purring
SO sweetly that he could not resist the
temptation to take the wheel, like
wise the control of the car. A touch
of the throttle would send the little
car skiming over the ground and to
feel the control of the motor was
a new sport to Paul. Suddenly the
wheels hit sand patch, and Lizzie"
jumped sideways like a frightened
thoroughbred. Paul gave the wheel a
quick turn, and the car responded so
quickly that it lost its equaliburium
landing on its back in the middle of
the road. Mr.. Chamison and two
male companions were able to extri-
cate themselves from the wreck but
Christensen was not SO fortunate,
being pinned beneath the car and
had 1t not been for a deep rut in the
road, would have probably been
crushed to death. However he escap-
ed with minor injuries. Mr.. Chami-
sons arm was injured. The top and
windshield of the car were demolish-
ed, and the radiator somewhat bent
The car was righted, and 1t was found
that the motor still purred sweetly
and the party came back to Gardner
vile with a somewhat clearer vision
of just what an automobile accident
means.

Arrested
in Mono

Chris Mattly, a well known farmer
of Mono Lake, and who has resided in
that section for great many years,
was arrested last week on a charge
of distributing seditious literature,
after the matter had been brought to
the attention of the Department of
Justice. Officials went to Bridgeport
and swore to a warrant for Mattlys
arrest.
Mattly has long been identified with
the Socialist movement and has been
leader for the party In that COM
munity. In circulating the literature,
which attacked the selective draft,
and other features of the war move
ment in this country, he acted In the
open and even handed one of the
pamphlets to the Sheriff of Mono
county. In doing so 1t reported that
Mattly stated that he would probably
DE arrested but he did not care.
The arrested man is an uncle OF
Chris Mattly, who was drafted in the
army and who lost his life in a mys-
terious fire that destroyed the
Bridgeport hotel in which twelve
other drafted men were sleeping.
They were awakened by young Mat
tly and made their escape from the
buring building. He returned to his
room and perished
The Socialist literature circulated
by Mattly is said to be among the
most drastic yet brought to the at
tention of the Department of Jusice.
