"I was troubled for several years with
chronic indigestion and nervous debili-
ty," writes F• J, Green, of Lancaster, N•
I-L, "No remedy helped me until I began '
using Electric Bitters, w hich did me more,
good than all the medicines I ever used.
They have also kept my wife in excellent
health for years. She says Electric Bit-
tots are just splendld for female troubles,:
that they are a grand tonic and invigora-
tor for weak. run down women, No other
medicine can take its place In our fami-
ly." Try them. Only 50c, satisfaction

What is the state going to do with all
the revenue the new revenue bill m go-i
lag to provide? Unless the statelevies
are greath' reduced ~l~e burdo~ will be a
heavy on one the tax payers of the state.
The deficit of somethiug like ~2,000,000!
should be provided for by bonds running I
30 to 50 years and the Seldomridge
mnendment which takes care of this mat-
ter should be paused by the legislature
and favorably acted upon by the people
at the next state election. Provision
should only be made for state revenues
to the extent of paying the legihmata ex-
Imn~ of the government and the proper
maintenance of the state's educational
and eelemosynary institutmns, with a
proper amount for the purpose of a mak-
ing fund. Any revenue~ in exoees of
that sum but offers inducements for
recklees.extravagance. The money which
accumulated some years ago in the Im-
provement fund had a great deal to do
with the financial condition which the
state now finds itself in. One member
of the legislature wanted a road, another
an artesian well, a bridge, a reservoir
and in a short time appropriations were
made which absorbed, n6t only the idle
Improvement fund, but a large portion
of the general revenues.
The Montgomery bill has many good
features and, in our opinion, some migh-
ty bad ones. It will, for one thing, raise
more money than is needed and the
chances of lowering the state levies is
exceedingly slim. The atata educational
Getting
Thin
is all right, if you are too fat;
and all wrong, if too thin already.
Fat, enough for your habit, is
healthy; a little more, or less, is
no great harm. Too fat, consult

thin, no matter what cause, take
Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver

There are many causes of get-
ting too thin; they all come
l under these two heads: over-
l work and under-dlgestion.
Stop over-work, if you cam

COMMITTEE.
Marc~ and the Lion
The saying about tbe lion and the
lamb in March often proves false, but
there is another aud a better one which
is literally true. When March comes in
and finds you taking Hood's Sarsaparilla
to purify, enrich and vitalize your bleed,
you may expect when it gee%out, that it
will leave you free from that tired feel-
ing and with none of the boils, pimples
and eruptions which .mahifest themsel-
ves because of impure blood in the spring
If you have not already begun taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla for your spring reed
irene, we advise you to begin today. We
assure you it will make you feel better
all through the coming summer.
"Cuter" Fogarty Arrested.
Sheriff Williams returned last week
from Paeb~o, having in charge Cuter
Fogarty, who was arrested at the home
of hm family in that city. After leaving
Salida some time ago Fogarty went to
Pueblo, Trinidad and then to Silver City.
New Mexico. At this latter place he re.
rosined until about ten days ago, when,
thinking his little escapade had blown
over, he retur~ed to Pueblo, where his
wife had gone and is now running a ho~
t.el called the Pueblo House. Pogarty
was arraigned before Justice Clare on
last Friday and not being able to give
bonds waa remanded to jail until his pre-
liminary heating which took place on
Tuesday.
At the hearing on Tuesday, Fogarty
asked for a continuance on the ground
that two of his witnesses were not able
to be present. The court took the view
that their testimony was not so material
as to warrant him in continunlg the case
and overruled the appiicatmn. Then
Fogarty waived examination and was
bound over to the June term of the dis-
trict oourt~

if I walked a block I wouldcough fright-
fully and spit blood, but wben all other
medicines failed, three $1 bottles of Dr.
King's New Discovery wholly cured me
and I gained 58 pounds." It's absolutely

Easter ]Finery.
Mrs.'E. G. Hazard, the Saguache mil-
liner, returned from Denver last week
and the choicest part of her purcheses
arrived at Villa Grove in time to get
burned in the depot fire. Mrs. Hazard
says it ia impossible for her to duplicate
many of her purchases, especially the
pattern hats, and tbat she will have to
make another trip to Denver ff the la-
dies of Saguache are to be properly ar-
rayed for Easter.
J. C. Kramer, brother of one of our
popular jewelers, received notice by tele-
graph Sunday evening from Pueblo 1o
present himself forthwith at the home of
hie mother in-law, Mrs. Elofson," in that
city, where he would be introduced to a
little stranger who was in search of a
permanent place of abode. Mr. Kramer
didn't hesitate a moment, he just grab-
bed a few necessary articles for the trip
and rushed for the first train. He is now
with Mrs. Kramer and both being de-
lighted with the little boy, have decided
to make him heir for 'aft time to come.
Mr. Kramer but recently disposed of his
jewelry business in Buena Vista and it
is highly probably will locate with his
family in Pueblo permanently.--Mail.
The next entertainment for the bene-
fit of the high school will be given at the
school hall, March 29. ~ It will be given
'by the adults outside of the'school and
the plan is that each is to speak the first
piece or sing the first song ever given in
public. "Mary Had a Little Lamb,"
Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and a
number of others will be given. It will
be fun from beginning to end and you
will miss a treat if you miss this. ID
On the 7th of March just 3~: years ago
last Thursday Jnhn Lawrence came to
Sagueche from Conches county, and in
company with Maj. Woodson located on
the ranch ,fist west of town. Mr, Law-
rence has seen many changes in the
county since that time, and is probably
the best posted man on the early history
of Saguaohe county who is living today.
