baby too, and here we are short a short stop for our ball team. Doc tor told me big bird what looks like a turkey buzzard brung 1t, but I don't see how he could without me seeing 1t, cause l was in the yard all day. l wisk they had left it over to the house next door and bruug us a dog or something that aiu't got to be waited on so much, Ma says she hopes she'll be a great musician or something like that, and pa says he hopes she learn to SOW on buttons and such like that and I hope she'll run off and swap places with a boy and give us the short stop we want. What good babies are for is more than I know, Everytime I come in the house they hoUer at me not to make any fuss and wake her up, but when she yelled all night last night they didn't say anything about her waking me up. l don't reckon she ever amount to much cause she cant eat and if you don't eat you cant grow much. I gave her a plum and she tried to swallow it whole so l knew she must not know anything about eating cause she choked. Mamma says uhe is going to tan me if ever do il again. Pa don't say much but think he is kinder liking this baby too. cause I heard him tell the man next door that there is one good thing about the baby cause it is the only thing some men have in treir house that they can claim without getting in a fuss with their wife.
 We played the Bugle Streets ball team yesterday and made 54 runs. We could have made some moree !. but We lost. trc ball when Fatty had to go home to cut wood

FOURTH DIVIDEND
PAID BY PREMIER

Hyder, Alaska, Oct. 4.-Word was received Sunday that the Premier Gold Mining Company who mine, the Premier. I4 miles up the Salmon river valley from here has caused the whole mining world to sit up and take notice, on the 3Oth of Septem- ber distributed another dividend of S750.O0O, making the total dividends To date $2.4OO.O0O.
 This is the fourth dividend declar, ed by the Premier, the first being on December 30, 1921, and the total amount to date is within $1OO,OOO of being one-half of the total cap italizauon. the $75O,OOO amounting to l5 per cent, or on a ratio of 60 per cent annually.
 In view of the fact that the mine has also paid for more than a million dollars worth of equipment, incIud- ing a tramway llla miles long, con- centraung mill, ore bunkers, etc., as well as the development work ueces. sary to an undertaking of such mag uitude, is believed to establish a pre-. cedent in mining annals.
 And the most gratifying feature of the whole situation is that the mine is known to have ore reserves capable of supplying this output for many years to come-how many is beyond any means of determination at this stage of development. The values now in sight to say nothing of those that may be conjectured tc exist, are sufficient to stagger the imagination.

IS T YOUR
 KIDNEYS?
Don't Mistake the Cause of Your
 Troubles.

Many people never suspert their kidneys. If suffering from lame, weak or aching back they think that it is only a muscular weakness; when urinary trouble sets in they think it will soon correct itself. And So it is with all the other symptoms of kid ney disorders. That is where the dGnger often lies. You should real ize that these troubles often lead to d-opsy or Brighfs disease. An eff Cecive remedy for weak or diseased kidneys is Deans Kidney Pills. Res idents of this viciRicy are constantly testifying.
 Mrs. Victor Wagner, 584 N. Center St., Reno, New, sGys: "The first symptom of kidney trouble in my case was lame back I had sharp pains in my back which shot up from the small of my back and after do- ing a days w2shing I could hardly ssrGighteu. My klCEcys acted lrreG- ularly and caused me annoyance. I suGered from terrible pain in tie top of my head. I saw Deans Kidney Pills advertised and bought box. They helped me frcm the start and They helped me from the start and soon cured me"
 Price 6Oc, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Wagner had. Foster-MiIburn Co.,, Mfrs, Buffalo, N. Y.

the district, but it is great connecting highway
between West Virginia and Pennsylvania. 1t is

to say the message was taken from the boys pocket
and carried quickly to the Western Union for an
other boy TO take out. The injured lad was taken
into the office Of nearby physician, where no
bones were found broken, and no serious injury
thought TO be sustained. Had the lad suffered
mortal injury, however, his attitude would have
been the same had he been conscious to utter the
words His exhibition of self control was remark
able, all his small features twisted with the
effort not to cry. Not knowing how badly he was
hurt, full of alarm lest he die from his injuries he
fought for composure and made vain effort to

to see some first class theatrical attractions once

Strangers have been astonshed at the lack Of such
entertainment, and local people have 1ourneyed to
Clarksburg, Morgantown and Pittsburgh to see
plays and other attractions that could Just us well
have been offered at home If there had been place
to house them.
The new theater project is going to carry through
this time, without doubt. Fairmont can amply
support such an investment. The public is hungry
for first class amusement of this kind, and tho
patronage should be large enough to pay the own.

be welcomed thrice over, and 1t is to be hoped
