THREE JURORS CURED
Of Cholera Morbus with One Small Bottle of
Chamberlala's Colic, Cholera aod Diarrhoea
Remedy.
Mr. G, W. Fowler, of Hightower,
Ala., relates an experience he had
while serving on a petit jury in a
murder case at Kdwardsville, coun
ty seat ot Cleboume county, Ala
bama. He says: “While there I
ate some lresh meat and some souse
meat and it gave me cholera morbus
in a very severe form. I was never
more sick in my life and sent to the
drug store tor a certain cholera mix
ture, but the druggist sent me a bot
tle of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera
and Diarrhoe Remedy, saying he
had what I sent for but that this
medicine was so much better he
would rather send it to me in the
fix I was in. I took one dose of it
and was better in live minutes. The
second dose cured me entirely. Two
fellow jurors were afflicted in the
same manner, and small bottle cured
all of us. For sale at Mason Valley
Drug Store.
Automobile Vlilti Valley.
The natives of the lower end of
Mason Valley were treated to quite
a novel sight this week. Secretary
of State, Douglass, and a couple of
friends spent a couple of days duck
hunting and traveled in an automo
bile. They made the trip from Vir
ginia City to Wabuska in three and
one-halt hours, and the only diffi
culty encountered on the way was
the sand in Churchill Canyon. This
was overcome by roping the wheels
to give them a grip on the sand. The
hunters bagged considerable game,
and, all in all had an enjoyable trip.
Whit It life?
In the last analysis nobody knows,
but we do know that it is under
strict law. Abuse the law even
slightly, pain results. Irregular
living means derangement of the
organs, resulting in constipation,
headach or liver trouble. Dr. King’s
New Life Pills quickly re-adjust
this. It’s genuine yet thorough.
Only 25c. at the Mason Valley Drug
Store. _
Meeey la lleaey.
C. C. Tidd, of Smith Valley, pur
chased last year fifty colonies of
bees, paying therefor the fancy price
of $7.50 per colony. This season he
will harvest from these colonies sev
en thousand pounds of the finest
kind of comb honey. He has been
offered 9c. per pound for the honey
by a California concern, but is hold
ing for 100. Should he receive the
latter price he will clear over $300
on his investment from his first crop
of honey. A pretty good business
for the money invested.
Cured of lame Back After flfteeu Years of
Suffering.
“I had been troubled with lame
back tor fifteen years and I found a
complete recovery in the use of
Chamberlain’s Pain Balm,” says
John G. Biaher, Gillum, Ind. This
liniment is also without equal for
sprains and bruisos. For sale at
Mason Valley Drugstore.

Stole a Norte aotl Buggy.
On the 5th day of last July a sew
ing machine repairer who went by
the name of W. T. Roth, and who
had visited Mason Valley early last
Spring, hired a horse and buggy of
Hironymous & Snyder, ostensibly to
make a trip through the Sweetwater
country. Roth stated that he would
be gone from here about three
weeks. He kept his word, tor he
has now been gone nearly three
months, and so has the rig. Some
days ago Mr. Hironymous learned
that a man answering Roth's de
scription had performed a similar
trick at Bishop, Cal., a few weeks
ago, and that he had also obtained
money on a forged check from a
business man of Bishop, and that,
the officers of that place were look
ing for him. Last Sunday Mr. Hi
ronymous started out to look for his
rig. He found out that Roth had
not been through the Sweetwater
country but that he had been to
Bodie and Bridgeport, but had not
left the rig at either of those places.
He returned from Bodie Tuesday,
and will see if the officials in the
several surrounding counties can
locate the man or rig. The rig is
valued at $150. Roth was acting as
agent for a patent machine tucker
as well as repairing machines, and it
has been learned that he sometimes
used the name of W. G. Tripp in
his correspondence.
far Commlssloaer.
Under the heading of ‘‘Political
Announcements,” in another column
of this issue, will be found the card
of T. J. A. Flaws for long term
County Commissioner. Mr. Flaws
sought the office of Commissioner
two years ago but was defeated by
the small margin of n votes. Many
people in this section have regretted
since that they did not vote for him
then, and will make amends at the
coming election. The Times can
say, after an acquaintance of over
twenty years with Mr. Flaws, that
he is one of the most honorable and
upright business men that ever lo
cated in Nevada. His record has
been one of live and let live, and the
instances of his kindness to those
who have found themselves in need
of temporary assistance have been
too numerous to mention. Should
he succeed in becoming one of the
Commissioners of Lyon county his
policy would undoubtedly be to con
duct the affairs of the county on a
broad gauge plan, treating all with
the consideration that taxpayers
should have and bestowing no spec
ial privileges upon any certain
clique tor the the purpose of politi
cal preferment. We believe Mr.
Flaws would make the best Com
missioner Lyon county has had for
years past. It we did not so believe
we should so state.
A Remedy Without a Peer.
"I find Chamberlain’s Stomach and
Liver Tablets more beneficial than
any other remedy I ever used for
stomach trouble,” says J. P. Klote,
of Kdina, Mo. For any disorder of
the stomach, biliousness or constipa
tion, these tablets are without a
peer. For sale at Mason Valley Drug
Store. _
Proposed Colonization.
Should the Rickey Land & Cattle
Company decide to colonize Ante
lope and Bridgeport Vallies, cutting
up its large holdings into small
farms, as there is a rumor of its
doing, it will be a great thing for
the county. It would mean bring
ing into the county at least fifty
families. These would give em
ployment to one or two men each.
The land would be cultivated and
made to produce to its full capacity,
business in all branches would be
increased and all would benefit by
the change.—Bridgeport Chronicle

Aa Uninvited Guest.
Last Sunday evening from about
8 until 9 o’clock a “peeping Tom"
was prying about a number ol resi
dences in the southern portion of
town, on Main street, and the ladies
in that neighborhood were badly
frightened by his actions. He would
come up and stand peering in at a
door or window until someone ap
proached him, when he would walk
away and hide behind a tree. Fi
nally one of the ladies asked him
why he was prying about there.
He impertinently replied that a man
had a right to stand on the street.
He was told he had no right to loiter
about private residences and peep
into doors and windows. Finally
one of the ladies avowed her in
tention of shooting him, and pro
cured a pistol. At this the fellow
ran up the street and was not seen
again. Constable Dillon was noti
fied and made a search for the man,
but did not find him. The ladies
describe him as being a rather short,
heavy-set man, wearing good clothes
and a light colored shirt or necktie,
and a light, sott hat. He is evident
ly a foreigner as he spoke broken
Knglish, and did not appear to be
under the influence of liquor. If
some irate male citizen catches him
at these practices there is liable to be
an ambulance call.

Hand Injured.
Last Saturday, Emmit, the little
six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs.
Will Pursel, came very near having
his hand cut off at the wrist. The
men on the place were engaged in
stacking hay and the youngster
was playing around the stack and
derrick. As a fork full of hay was
being raised the little fellow grab
bed the derrick rope and his hand
was drawn down into the tackle
through which the rope runs. He
managed to pull his hand out of the
block before it was tightly wedged
in, or otherwise the rope would un
doubtedly have cut it oft. As it is
the flesh is torn from the fingers and
the hand badly bruised, but no bones
are broken and the member will be
all right in a short time.

I. D. Flory returned from Califor
nia Wednesday after negotiating
tor the sale of the greater portion of
the honey crop of this valley. This
week and next product of the Hart
man and Flory apiaries, consisting
of about 35 tons of honey, will have
been shipped. The honey is un
doubtedly the 6nest in the world,
and the price paid for it is 9^0. for
comb and 4%o. for extracted. Other
small lots shipped from the valley
this season will probably bring the
output up to 110,000 pounds, so it
will be seen that the industry is
growing to be quite an extensive
one in this section.
