Many a hoy hu made a good impres
sion when he (lid not even know he was
being watched. Business men are contin
ually watching the boys. If they see
one boy coming out of a saloon with a
cigarette between his lips, and another
with a clean colUr on coming out of a
Sunday school, it does not take long for
them to decide which one of the boys
they want to employ. Many business,
and professional men do a great many
thing themselves they don't want their
boy to do. The great trouble with the

SEVERE ATTACK OF GRIP.
Cured by One Bottle of Chamberlain'
Cough Remedy.
"When I had an attack of the grip
last winter (the second one) I actually
cured rnyself with one bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy," says Frank
W. Perry, Editor of the Enterprise, at
Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the honest
truth. I at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by tukiag a teaspeonful
of this remedy, and when the coughing
spell would come on at night I would
take a dose and it eeemed tiiat in the
briefest interval the cough would pass
off and I would go to sleep perfectly free
from cough and its accompaning pains.
To say that the remedy acted as a most
agreeable hurpnse is putting; is very
mildly. I had no it'ea that it would or
could knock out the grip, simply because
I had never tried it for such a purpose,
but it did, and it seemed with the second
attack of coughing the remedy caused it
to not only be of less duration, but the
pains were fur less severe, and I had not
used the contents of one bottle before
Mr. Grip had bid me adieu." For sale by

A LETTER FROM MRS. E. L.RICE,
Hotchkiss, Colo. April 16,1903.
We had a little dash of sun again East
er, anil the morning of the 13th the
thermometer .'aid onlv 17 above zero. It
warms up Lilt slowly. The alfalfa fields
begin to look green, but the buds on the
trees prudently hold back. "
Everybody is busy cleaning ditches
and the sound of blasts is in the air, these
stones iiiiisl Is? got rid of some way, and
if they are to bin to move, powder must
do the work. There has heen so much
snow in the mountains that people look
for lots of water this year, and ditches
are lieing enlarged and strengthened
accordingly. It would make Nebraska
people open their eves to see some of the
farming that is done right on top of the
stones or lietween them, our neighbors
put in a piece of alfalfa last fall on a
piece of ground ho rocky that it w a
marvel where the seeds found lodgment,
and a greater marvel how such ground
could be plowed and harrowed. The
brave little plants are commirig lip, how
ever ingreeu patches all around tho rocks
and when a leisure time comes to pick
off the rock, I suppose the alfalfa will
spread and fill up the vacancies.
A great many fruit trees will lie set,
and much alfalfa put in this spring on
this, and neighboring mesas. Every
body seems to be hopeful and busy; their
little town is building up rapidly, and
every thing seems prosperous, there is
plenty of work at good wages.
We attended a County S. H. Convention
at Hotchkiss April 1st, and were not
"fooled" in the least, unless in the fact
that it was a belter meeting than we
looked for. The State Supt. of S. S.
work, Rev. John Carmen was present,
and was full of helpful, and practical
suggestions (or the teacher.

Clough says that his aged father passed

I find from letters received that La
Gripe is the fusluon in Nebraska, we hud
our touch of it, but now think ourselves
usually well, Mr. Rice and Harry are
busy preparing alfalfa ground, and
arranging ditches. Roy's eight months

MOVING TO TOWN.
What! going to move to the city?
Is that what I'm hearing you say?
To-morrow you gather your chattels
Aad get ready to move right away I
1 guess that I must be mistaken
Just say it alloveragain.
Yes We're going to move to the city
Our neighbors will bo happy then.
No, ro; I don't mean to be selfish
Or foolish; but you can pot see
The ties that are holding my heart here,
Or know what your words mean to me.
There's Hie pine trees in sight over yon
der The prairie so rolling and green,
Ami iu the green grass by the hillside
Most beautiful flowers are seen.
To hear the dear meadow larks singing
Their songs are a pleasure to me.
I fear when we go to the city
Their yellow breasts we can not see.
And there where the sweet pea tassels
It's streamers ol pink blossoms high,
Our children have gathered the flowers
But now they must bid them good-by.
Ah John, you nre young yet not fifty.
And the city's enticing I know;
Let's stay on the farm awhile longer;
Till we're better able to go.
Yes, Ella, we'll move to the city
We have staunch friends there we
know,
While out here in the country
Some are happy to see us go.
Yes, kind friends of the Press Journal,
we expect to move to your city in the
near future ar.d will soon have to bid
good bye to those who have read our
items. Will perhaps write once more.
