ROAD TO HAPPINESS.

Be amiable, cheerful and good ma
tured and you are much more likely
to be happy. You will find this diff
cult, if not impossible, however, when
you are constantly troubled with con
stipation. Take Chamberlain's Tab.
lets and get rid of that and it will be
easy. These tablets not only move
the bowels, hut improve the appetite
and strengthen the digestion.

SALT LAKE MINING MEN
BUY ROSEBUD PROPERTY

An important mining deal was
closed here the first part of the week.
when a syndicate of Salt Lake mining
men took over twenty claims at Rose
bud from F. w. Kemmerle and asso-
ciates. The property is covered with
huge dykes which for many years
were considered to be a fine quality
of limestone and were traversed daily
by prospectors. Kemmerle had an
assay made and found that the rock
contained large quantities of alunite,
from which aluminium is manufac-
tured, and at once located the ground.
1t is understood that the Salt Lake
parties took bond on the property
at $4,000, if paid within so days. with
$1,000 down. with graduated increases
in the purchase price up to six months,
when the option expires.
