' Several miners there had staked out claims and were going down through the frosty earth In an effort to strike pay flirt. They were operating a steam plant running down "points," and were one day-much surprised by. noticing a fecullar smell of flesh emanating from he excavation. They investigated and found that thev were immediately upon the carcass pf some Immense animal which the almost redhpt steam was racldlv. decavinar after it had lain In the fr'osen clasp of Its earthly bed for untold millenniums. By a a-reat effort they got the rsr cans out. of the earth. Much of the meat was still In a good stage of preservation when brought to the sur face and was eaten by the dogs of the miners und wild animals that came about the camp at night. The bones of the- mammoth were all Intact, and the- last Mr. Frollng heard arrangements were being made to sell the skeleton to some museum as a curiosity. , AT THE THBATBE Wassss-B Last, Time "Woodland" Tonight.

An end to the pres ent Portuguese dictatorship is expeoted in the spring, when new elections will be held, and when it Is generally ex pected there will be a return to con stltutlonal government. It is known that the decision of King Carlos to end the present absolutist regime la due not to the failure of Premier Francoas, dictator, but to the insistent pressure brought to bear on his majesty by King Edward of En eland and by the man aaers-of foreign banks and commercial houses doing business in Portugal, who declared that heavy economic loss must follow a continuation of tha dictator ship. Premier Franco has practically ended the amaxing reign or graft in an gov ernment bureaus.

Chismond says in the "MEDICAL BRIEF:", v "In its inclDiency It Is as curable as any malady that the system Is heir to." IN ITS KKCUNUAHV STAUKf WR POSSESS NO SPECIFIC FOR ITS RAVAGES." Where does that leave the kidney medicines you have been taking? And just as we have said Over and over. It doesn t make much difference what you call Kidney trouDie, irtt fas tens, physicians and druggists have had- no -successful treatment for it. True, it commonly gets well at first, but. if it does not. it enters the second stage that was incurable up to the dis covery of .Fulton's Renal Compound, which is the, first thing known to re duce Inflammation in kidney tissues.- When does the second stage com mence? Dr. Chismond says: "IT DE VELOPS SO UNCONSCIOUSLY IT IS AS A RtTLE FAR ADVANCED BEFORE IT IS DISCOVERED.'' In view of these acknowledged facts, people with kidney trouble should 3o some very serious 'thinking before tak ing futile kidney medicines under which the kidney deaths have risen to over 170 ner dav. Even if the Inflammation Is in the first stage, a course of futU4 medicine Is delay that develops the very condition that Dr. Chlsmon aays is "irreparable," and that was Irreparable ' to the date or uuon s oenenceni Fi& la4ri and nvieVi 1 fill W c for CAt&lQft V' V If of any size on wood-' ; ?k K - X Ar Come up and visit with oyr ' - - tV or phone AiM arHjMwnZft .
