TOWN IMPROVEMENT HINTS.
Kan towns find that waste paper
receptacles placed on street corners
help greatly In keeping the streets free
of rnbblah, etc.
Yon may spend a great deal of time
and money on tbe lawn, but If the
edges are not neatly trimmed at each
cutting much of Its beauty Is lost
When you neglect outdoor house
keeping you not only depreciate tbe
Talue of your own property, but that
of your neighbors.
ft doesn't cost much and Is very lit
tle trouble to keep a town clean It tbe
citizens will co-operate and do their
share In the matter.
Bi'bool children organized to prevent
tbe throwing of rubbish Into t!ie streets
may do more effective work than many
policemen. It la an Interesting experi
ment that might bring good results If
made.
Glad It Did so Much Good.
8otno remarkablo stories are. tying
told about town and among the
(.-odd try jiooi li coming in'of tliis sim
ple homemade mixture coring Rheu
matism and Kidney troohhi. Here is
the 'ecipe and directions for taking:
Mix by shaking well in a b' ttle onx-half-ounce
Fluid Extract Dandelion,
one ounce Compound Kargon, three
onnces Corircund Syrop Sarsaprilla.
Take an a dose one-teaspoouful after
meals and at bedtitn '.
'o change need be made In yonr
nsual dint, but drink plenty of good
water. This mixture, writes one
authority in a leading Philadelphia
newspaper, has a peculiar tonlo effect
upon the kidneys; cleansing the
clogged op pores of the eliuiinatlve
tisanes, forcing the kidneys to sift
and strain from the blood the nrlo acid
and other poisonous waste matter,
overcoming Rheumatism, Bladder and
Urinary troubles in a short while.
A New York druggist who has had
hondreds of calls for these ingredients
since tbe first announcement In the
newspapers last October stated that
tbe people who once try it "swear
by it," especially those who have
Urinary and kidney trouble and
suffer with Rheumatism.
The druggists in this neighborhood
say they can supply the Ingredients,
which are easily mixed at home.
There is said to be ao better cleansing
ageut or system tonic, and certainly
none more harmless or simple to use.

I Llany Mining Matters-
C. J. Mattison, the well known
Galioe mining man has been very
much under the wether, here at the
county seat, for several days past.
Bn. now lie is able to be about, again.
The Missoori Flat mining district
is again coming to the front and Fred
Miller is developing the promising
piacr property in which he is in
terested. At the recent term of oircuit court
in Joeephine oounty, Judge H. is'.
Hnua tendered a far retching de
cision and one of more thau pacing
importance, when he rendered a de
cision in favor of the defendants, in
the hotly contested mining case of
Kohertson vs. Madison and Mitchell,
Attorney H. D. Norton aud O. 8
Uianchard representing the defend
ants. This is regarded as one of the
richest gold mines In this entire dis
trict The matter as decidedly com
plicated, bet the rulings of the court
Mere plainly In favor of the defense,
and the decision was regarded as a
big blow to the would be claim
jumpers, as it was claimed that this
was really a case of this uatare. This
decree will, it is alleged, encourage
investment of capital aud labor in
legitimate enterprises of this nature.
J. W. York has entered into an
agreement with F. M. Miller aud
Lincoln Savage, for a right of way
f r a six fool flume, for mining pur
poses, the same to be constructed
across land located in section 25, tp
87, e r 5, for the purpose of carrying
away foom their placer mine the tail
ings, rock, rock sand and gravel.
The Murtba Mining Co., has leased

December 1, 1108. The lessors sgree
to keep two shifts at work daily, and
do all work In a workmanlike man
ner and to give tbe lsasees 10 per
cent of the gross amount of metals
extracted for tbe first 13 months aud
20 per cent for the remainder of the
lease. The leas la not transferable.

of the brtt indications of ths changed

The Maybelle miue, located in the
Waokwell dislriut. near Gold Hill, is

WA1CH YOUR TONGUE
If Furred and Coated, ll la
Warning of Trouble to Come.
When it is the morning after the
night belore you do not have to look
at yonr tongue to know that the
stomach is upset the head is aching
widi a dull rhtthni and that all the
world looks black and drear.
It nisy hare been lobster Newburiih,
Welnh rarebit or some other tasty dis.i
that looked much belter at night than
the morning sf er. There is no need
to look at the tongue thermometer
then for symptoms of trouble. You
naturally go to your box .of Miona
-tomach tablets and with one of the
little n lievers bring joy and glaanees
to the physical system.
The real time to watch the tongue
is all of the time. If it is coated with
a white fur or possibly wnh dark
trimmings even though the stomach
does not tell you by the a.-nte pains of
indigestion that it needs help yet the
coaling shows that you are getting
into a bad way and that there is need
of Mi-o-na.
Mi-o-na is so positive, so sure, so
reliable in its curative action upon
the stomach that Demaray the local
agent gives an absolute guars, tee
with every 60-cent box he sells to re
fund the money uule-s the remedy
gives absolute and complete satisfac

CITY LIFE A DELUSION.
Old Inhabitant Thinks Country Towns
Offer More Happiness.
"Up at the depot Just now," said one
of the old Inhabitants. "I saw several
of the boys got off the train to spend
the hollduys at home. They've come
back to the old town from tbe city,
aud I'll bet my bull pup against their
turkey dinner with tly home folks
that most of 'em would remain right
here In town If they were uot asham
?d to Bay thnt city life Is not up to
their expectations. And between you
and me and the barn door I am
strongly Inclined to think that nine
out of ten of tbe boys who go from
any country town to a big city would
make a N-tter winning In the race of
life If they would stay at home and
grow up with their own community.
"1 wont to the city when I was n
cub nud stayed several years. But I
was homesick uil the time. The young
fellow in a great city holding a Job
and working so many hours a day for
somebody else Is not hy nny means In
such an enviable position as some of
the people still In the country towns
are Inclined to think.
"I recall that when I was living In
the city many years ago. working on a
salary for n famous: establishment, the
i local paper here once printed a notice
about me that made me laugh out of
, one side of my mouth while I cried out
j of the other. According to the home
j paper, I was 'on the highroad to for
tu"1' '" ""' rl,.v-' 1 WBS holding a
,ll'lll-v responsible post with a great
''"""'r" "lul "k'"K roml. and all that
",(,tl,l"K T1" f:"',s "s "'J' ro-
iT'? T1"" "" rlB,,t' '""
It cost me two or three times as much
to live there as It did hack home, and
at the end of the year I usually found
nl.v "a tin account no bigger thau
er than It
would have heeu had I remained at
home and kept ou working In Ilrown's
general store.
'Finally I resolved to face the mu
sic aud come back homo. The word
home Cleans somethlm; In a small
town too. As you know, I have n pret
ty good home, und 1 own It, no niort- I
giis-es. and nheu the flowers bloom
In the front yard every spring I com- 1
pare my house and lot "with the rented 1
coil 1 used to occupy In the city great- '
ij 10 tue uilvnutage of the house and
lot. Pui not rich, but I'm oomforta
le. If I had stayed Iu the city, per
haps by now I might have had a
large hauk account and perhaps not.
"ut one thing W sure as shmiting-l
would not have had so ninny good
Mends uor half so high a stan'dlnir In
! the city as I have here at home.
1 "My advice to the boys." concluded
the old Inhabitant. "Is to think two or
'hreo- times before they leap Into a
great city. Iu most cases they become
mere cogs In a huge commercial wheel,
the motive power Mng operated by
sotnelnHly else. I may be old fash-
1 loned. hoys. l,t I am flrm In the con
viction that It Is better to be tin entire
mlnuow in a small but clean nud
i peaceful pond than to be the tall of a
large t'.sli in a storu.y ocean. t)ne way
to build yourself up Is to help build up
your own i,,n by Iviieving It Is the
best town on earth f,,r vourself and
staying In it "
