A THOUGHT

See thy way in the valley; know
what thou hast done.-Jeremiah
2:z3.
We turn and nook upon the
valley of the past year. There be-
low are the spots stained by cur
evil and our fear. But as we look
glow Of Sunlight breaks upon
the pas. and in the sunshine is <
soft rain, falling from heaven. Il
washes away the stain, and from
the purity Of the upper sky voice
seems to descend and enter oar
sobered heaits. My child, go for
ward, abiding in faith, hope and
love, for Ii, i am with you Away

SNOW IN THE CITY
BY BERTON BRALEY.

Inc beautiful snow. The beautiful snow,
II tails On the roofs and the pavements below.
IN fakes that come floating down gently and slow
Inc beautiful snow! It's not beautiful long.
When trampled by feet Of the hurrying tbronp
IL isn't subject for music or song.
For even as downward it airily hutters
II mucks up the streets and it chokes IN the outtors
And Darn ali this snow the pedestrian nutters
me tempere OF drivers it woefuIIy wrecks.
1t slides off the roofs down the passer-bys' necks
II Knows no distinction of age or Of SEX
II meIts, and clear the curbstone it washes,
II oVerfows rubbcrs and soalis through gaIoshes,
On turs and on gowns of the womn it sploshes
The beautiful snow! On the city it steals
1t causes the sdddng of automobiles,
And makes you get out and put chains on the wheels
IT swiftly grows dirty and sloppy to view
II harbors bacill of colds and the flu,
Til half of the popuace sneezes. "A-choow
Inc beautiful snow! In the country its so,
But mere IN the city we greet it with Woe
Inc far, far from beautiful Beautiful Snowp'

USE SULPHUR TO
HEAL YOUR SKIN
Broken Out Skin and Itching
Eczema Helped Over Night

For unsightly skin eruptions, rash or
blotches on face, neck, arms or body,
you do not have to wait for relief from
torture or embarrassment, declares a
noted skin specialist. Apply a little
Mentlo-Sulphur and improvement
shows next day.
Because of its germ destroying prop
critics, nothing has ever been found to
take the place of this sulphur prepara-
ton. The moment you apply it heal
ing begins. Only those who have had
unsightly skin troubles can know the
delight this Mentho-Sulphur brings.
Even fiery, itching eczema is dried right
up.
Get a small jar of Row1es Mentho-
Sulphur from any good druggist and
use it like cold cream.

Rains Help Range

Neil Erickson, who represents Uncle
Sam at the Ancient Cliff dwellings,
Walnut Canyon, was in town the last
of last week and reported one and a
half inch rainfall during one day
there. News coming in from various
other sections, east, west and south,
indicate copious rains, though a few
spots are still left without any to
speak of. Stockmen feel that while
the rains have come little late they
will, unless frosts come unusually ear
ly, greatly benefit grazing.
