"Death was fast approaching," writes Ralph F. Fernandez, of Tampa, Fla., de scribing his fearful race with death, "as a result of liver trouble and heart dis ease, which had robbed me of sleep and of all interest in life. I had tried many dif ferent doctors and several medicines, but got no benefit, until I began to use Elec tric Bitters. So wonderful was their ef fect, that in three days I felt like a new man, and today I am cured of all my troubles." Guaranteed at Newiin's Drug LODGE DIRECTORY EAGLES La Grande Aerie 259 F. 0.

The trial of Captain William Van Schaick, former com mander of the excursion steamer General Slocum, the ill fated boat, which burned in the East river on June 16, 1904, while it had a large Sunday School excursion on board, of which over 1000, mostly women and children, lost their lives, began today, before Judge Thomas in the federal cir cuit court.

(OST Of SOLOMON'S TEMPLE Solomon's temple flourished before the days of modern " Graft," but it may be wondered wnat became of all the jewels and precious stones, for the talents of gold, silver and brass used in the con struction of the temple were valued at about thirty-five bili:ons of . dollars, and the jewels about the same, according to Viilapandus. The consecrated vessels of gold amounted to two and three quarter billions; of silver two and one-half bill ions; the vestments and musical instru ments to eleven and one-quarter millions. There were ten thousand men employed to hew timber, seven thousand as burden carriers, twenty thousand as hewers of stones, thirty-three hundred overseers, all of whom were employed for seven years and upon whom Solomon bestowed as a gift thirty millions of dollars. Add ing the food and wages the total would be over four hundred and fifty millions of dollars. The costly stone and timber equalled twelve billion more and the whole total has been carefully estimated at $77,62 1.966,6 3 6. . It's an easy thing to say, -' And say it good and strong.

In thousands of homes the loss of dear rela tives and friends, who lost their lives in the Slocum disaster, is deeply mourned and the strong feeling against Captain Van Schaick. who is, to a great etftent. held responsible for the terrible loss of lives, has not decreased much since then. Public opinion demands that severe pun ishment be meted out to those who were responsible for the disaster and up to th present time comparatively little has been done to satisfy this demand.

Ai milk contains 9.76 solids and 90.26 water, a 6 milk 'contains 16.26 solids and BA.?6 water. Now if a 1 milk is worth $1.60 per quart per month, what should a 6 sell for? Let's se, if we pay $1.60 for milk containing 9.76 solids, at the same price milk containing 16.26 solids should sell for $2.0, or you can to every three quirts of 6 milk add two ;-.'. of water, making 6 qur. or & miiK, I. t. three quarts of 6 milk it aqu&l to five nui.'.s of 3 milK, at the prssent pne C'ni oi it milk C; $i.5.'-s.a0: Hire qiiirt of 5 miik (rt 2.006.00, i. e. you are getting the same amount of solias (or 6.00 in a 6 milk that you iot in a b milk for $7.60.
