BURRO SERVES AS A GUIDE. j
Life of Traveler in Mohave Desert
Saved by Keen Scented Tribe.
Chicago Chronicle: The burro, vert- |
table ship of the western desert, will ;
live longer without water and scent It
further than any other known animal
except the camel. As an example of
the keen scent of the burro for water.
Arthur J. Burdick relates in "The Mys
tic Mid-Region,” the experience of two
prospectors named Peterson and Kelly.
A few years ago they attempted to
cross the Great Mohave desert on foot,
with a burro to carry their suuplies.
In passing from oasis to oasis they
lost their way and the supply of water
became exhausted. To be lost In the
desert Is a terrible thing, and anxiety,
coupled with torturing thirst and the
intense heat, drove Peterson Insane. He
left his companion and tied, shrieking,
across the plain. Kelley picketed the
burro and went after Peterson to bring
him back, but was unable to overtake
him.
He returned to the trail to find that
his burro had broken his tether and
was moving across the desert at a
leisurely pace. He followed, but the
animal was so far in the lead and he
was so exhausted front his efforts to
overtake Peterson that he could /tot
come up to the burro.
Night came upon hint and it soon be
came so dark that he could not distin
guish the burro. He had to follow it
by the footprints In the sand. When
it became too dark to distinguish the
footpronts Kelley still staggered on in
sheer desperation.
By and by his heart gave a great
throb. Before him. outlined against
the sky and seemingly suspended In
air. was a form which he knew to be
either his burro or an apparition. He
hurried forward, and. lo! standing upon
a sharp rise of ground and facing him
was his lost burro! The burro seemed
to be awaiting him. for when he came
up the anlmul turned and led the way
dow'n the incline to a spring of living
water.

Effects of Prosperity.
In the six years of the country'*
greatest prosperity, from 1897 to 1903, !
average prices of breadstuff's advanced
05 per cent., meats 23.1 per cent, dairy
and garden products 50.1 per cent and 1
clothing 24.1. All these were products |
of the farmer and stockman who 1
profited more than any other class of
the community by these advances. |
The miner benefited 42.1 per cent by
that advance In the average price of |
metals. The only deerease in the aver- i
age prices of commodities in that pe- j
riod was in railway freights, which
decreased from .798 per ton-mile in
1897 to .703 in 1903, a loss of 4.4 per
cent. The report of the Interstate
Commerce Commission shows that the
average Increase in the pay of railroad
employes in that period was a trifle
above 8.5 per cent.
Wifely Anxiety.
Chicago Tribune: "Doctor, my husband
Is dreadfully troubled with sleeplessness.
What is good for it?"
"You might try reading him to sleep,"
madam."
"What would be the use of that, doc
tor? 1 try to talk him to sleep every night
and it doesn’t do a bit of good.”

i What is Castoria.
ASTORIA is a harmless substitute for Castor Oil, Paregoric, Drops and
Soothing Syrups. It is pleasant. It contains neither Opium, Morphine nor
other Narcotic substance. Its age is its guarantee. It destroys Worms and allays
Feverishness. It cures Diarrhoea and Wind Colic. It relieves Teething Troubles,
cures Constipation and Flatulency. It assimilates the Food, regulates the Stomach
and Bowels, giving healthy and natural sleep. The children’s Panacea—The
Mother’s Friend.
The Kind You Have Always Bought, and which has been in use for over
30 years, has borne the signature of Chas. H. Fletcher, and has been made under
his personal supervision since its infancy. Allow no one to deceive you in this.

WOMEN NOT TRUTHFUL
? his Statement Has Been Unjustly Made, Because
Modest Women Evade Questions Asked By
Male Physicians.
An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they will lie
to their physician." This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re
gard to those painful aDd troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked, even by her family physician
This is especially the case with un
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on ?
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now corre
sponding with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients,
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
If you suffer from any form of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham. Lynn. Mass., and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol
lowing are constantly pouring in.
Mrs.Ella Lee. Frankford, Ind..writes*
Dear Mrs. Ftnkham:—
“ I want to thank you for what your medi
cine has done for me.
“ Three years ago I had inflammation of the
ovaries and ulcers on my womb. I was under
the doctor's caie for about three months, and
the only time I was not in pain waa when
under the influence of morphine. The doctor
Anally said I never would lie (letter, and
would lie an invalid the rest of my life. 1 had
given up in despair, hut one evening t cam*
across one of your advertisements and decided
to write you for advice. I did so and com
menced to take Lydia E. Pinkbams Vege
table Compound. 1 began to improve at once,
and to-day I am a well woman, and I know
it is all due to your advice and medicine.
Mrs. J H. Farmer of 2809 Elliott
Avenue, St. Louis, Mo., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkbain:—
“ I cannot thank you enough for what your
advice and medicines have done for me.
They haTe done me more good than all the
doctors I ever had.
“ For the last eight years I have suffered
with female troubles; was very weak; hud
nervous prostration, and could not do my
work; but I am happy to say Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound has made a
different woman of me. I am in perfect
health and have gained in we.ght from 06
pounds to 122 pounds."
No other medicine in the world baa
received such widespread and unquali
tied endorsement. No other medicina
has such a record for actual cures of
female Ills as has Lydia E. Pink ham’a
Vegetable Compound.

What a Mercer County (Ohio) Former
Received from One year’s Crop.
Extracts from an interesting letter
from P. H. Rynhard, of Starbuck.
Manitoba, Canada, gives an excellent
idea of tile prosperity of those who
have gone from the United Stutes to
Canada. He says:
“I bought, August, 1903, 4S0 acres
of land, paying $12,0(H) for it. We
threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat and
between 1,200 and 1,300 bushels of oats
and barley from 200 acres. But part
of the wheat went down before tilling
and was not harvested except for hay.
The crop was worth at threshing time
$3,000. Besides 120 acres laying idle
except a timothy meadow which is not
included In this estimate. Counting
the value of the product and the in
crease of value of land will pay me
more than 25 per cent on the invest
ment. Two brothers in the same neigh
borhood bought 100 acres each six
years ago. They have not done a sin
gle tiling to this land except to fence
it and break and cultivate about one
half of It. Harvested last year 28
bushels wheat per acre. This year 27
bushels per acre. They can get any
day $25 per acre. These are only a
few of many hundreds of such chances.
It looks like boasting, hut truth is
justifiable and the world ought to
know it, especially the home-seeker.
1 know of quite a few farmers that
have made fortunes in from 10 to 20
years, retired with from $20,000 to
$100,000.
Writing concerning another district
In the Canadian West, S. I,. Short says:
"Dear Sir—1 have to inform you
that 1 have just returned from the
Carrot river country in Saskatchewan,
where I located land of the very finest
black vegetable loam, which I am
proud of, and will move in the spring.
Farmers are still plowing there. A
mild climate and beautiful country to
behold. Cuttle are fat and running
outside. Wood and water good. Saw
oats weighing 42 pounds to bushel.
Potatoes large and well ripened: also
wheat that brought there 82 cents. The
country exceeded my expectations.
Saw oats in stock, thicker on the
ground than appears in many of the
illustrations sent out in descriptive
pamphlets. 1 have been in many West
ern States, but the soil excels any I
ever saw.”
The Canadian Government Agents
at different points report that the in
quiries for literature and railroad
rates, etc., to Western Canada are the
greatest in the history of their work.
