"Clstorla is the best remedy for children of
'which I att acquainted. I hope tic : d. y is trot
far distant when mothers wlllconsiderthe real
y interest of their children , and use Castori instead -
stead of tlmvarious quack nostrums which are
destroying their loved ones , by foniug opium ,
morphine , : soothing syrup and other hurtful
agents down their throats , thereby sending
them to premature graves. "

"Our physicians in the children's department -
ment have spoken highly of their erperi-
enco in their outside practice with Castoria ,
and although we only hnve among our
medical supplies what is known as regular
products , yet we are free to confess that the
merits of Castoria has won us to look with
favor upon it. "

TIRED WOMEN.
THE HousEWIFE , THE FARMER
AND THE T0ILEnS 01 ? ALL
VOCATIONS.
Depression of the nervous system -
tem at the approach of spring is a
fertile source of blood impurities.
That tired feeling , which is the
natural result of the depressing
effect of warm weather immediately -
ly after the invigorating cold of
winter , quickly disappears when
Pe-ru-na is taken. Thousands are
daily testifying to its priceless
benefit. General lassitude , dull ,
heavy sensations , continual tired
feelings , with irregular appetite ,
and sometimes loss of sleep. Pe.
ru-na meets every indication and
proves itself to be perfectly adapted -
ed to all 'their varied peculiarities.
Pe-ru-na invigorates the system ,
rejuvenates the feelings , restores
the normal appetite and procures
regular sleep.
This tired-out feeling is especially -
ly true of the housewife in spring
time-used up , fagged out , jaded
and weak. There are thousands
of them everywhere. A few
r
bottles of Pe-ru-na would do them
untold benefit. As a tonic and
nerve invigorator it has no equal.
It builds up the nerves , it gives
strength to the circulation and at
once restores the appetite and di-
gestion. No feeble woman should
be without Pe-ru-na.

NORTH DIVIDE NUBBINS ,
J. M. Henderson has planted
about 50 acres of broom corn.
The writer made quite a good
deal of garden , this week , in a box.
Mrs. W. Y. Johnson is slowly
recovering from a long and severe
spell of sickness.
Mike Steltzer will help gather
the eggs over at Uncle Billy's for
the next month or so.
A consignment of flour and gar-
deii seeds were distributed among
the faithful and needy , this week.
The frost , during the early part
of the week , was not expected and
many a Divide garden suffered
accordingly.
Services at the Box Elder M.E.
church have been discontinued for
the present , owing to the illness of
Rev. Vivian.
J. S. Modrell began listing corn ,
first of the week , and intends
keeping at it until lie has in 100
acres or more.
Dick Hanlein had business of
special importance at Bartley , this
week , going overland and walking
most of the way.
Grass is coming on nicely and
all stock that have free range
wander many miles from home
and go at the rate of nine knots
an hour.
Several of the young folks had
a surprise party at the pleasant
home of Miss Carrie Kimball , on
Thursday last ; all enjoyed the occasion -
casion immensely.
A great deal of the Iowa hay
that is being fed throughout this
neighborhood is likened unto strips
of oilcloth : wide , glassy and very
unwholesome. Just the thing
though for reseating cane bottom
chairs , for which purpose it is said
to be incomparable , lasting for
many years.
During the hurry and rush of
the present time , the writer is often -
ten puzzled and some times at a
loss to know just what sort of a
meal would be good for a change
and still meet the requirements of
a tasty and varying appetite. For
the benefit of those who are also
in a hurry and haven't much time
to waste , we offer the following ,
which ought to more than be ap-
preciated. After the cook has
been "gallyvanting" over t h e
country the better part of the previous -
vious night , an early breakfast is
needed , and nothing can be gotten
in preparation for the table with
less exertion than a magnesia pudding -
ding , served cold , and drink as
much water as you like. For dinner -
ner , when there's no wood split
and the brush pile is low and one
comes in from the field tired and
somewhat hungry , a good cup of
sage brush tea with more of the
pudding served with alkali sauce
will satisfy most any one. For
supper you'll be reminded of the
dance somewhere over on the Big
Flat , so that it takes but a moment -
ment or so to prepare a delicious
loco fry , with red willow gravy ,
and there'll be time left to "spruce
up" for the hop. CONNIE.
