tiet KM of That Bad Taste.
When you wake up in the morning
with a bad taste in your mouth, with
your throat and tongue dry and
yellow coating on your teeth and
gums, don't imagine it was all caused
by what you ate the night before. Of
course everybody does that and every
body "swear* off'' from again eating
such food. The trouble is that
your liver is clogged, your kid
neys are oceworked and vour bowels
are not doing their duty. Titke from
three to ten of Bbaxdkkth's Pills
and note the sudden and wonderful
change in your system.
Would you avoid the rocks and
quicksands which have proved the
ruin of a great multitude setting out
on the voyage of life? If so, lose no
time in securing the "Science of
Life."

A PISH STORY.
Ah Enormous School of Trout tu Silver
Creek—luteresting Recital by an
Old-Timer.
Numbers of our sportive fishermen
daily line the banks of Wood River,
and with rod and line and temptingly
bated hook inveigle the coy mountain
trout from his mossy home. Already
more than one expedition has visited
Silver Cre*k—that world-renowned
paradise of the fisherman. Yesterday
evening a party sat in front of the
Alturaa when a boy went past with a
fine string of the speckled beauties.
Immediately the conversation turned
to fishing and fishing adventures. An
old-timer, well known in Hailey,
listened to the fishy stories of his
companions and when they had about
exhausted themselves, said: "Well
gentlemen, a very remarkable adven
ture occurred to myself and friends on
Silver Creek last summer.
"Claude Campbell, Alex. Hoffliger,
Mike Mahoney and myself made up a
party, got a tent, a cooking outfit,
including two or three dimijohns; in
shor*, everything that would add to
our comfort, drove down to our de
stination and picked out a good place
for a camp.
"I left the boys pitching the tent
and took a walk down towards the
stream. When I got a short distance
from the creek my attention was at
tracted by a peculiar noise, and look
ing out on the flat in front of me 1
gazed on one of the most wonderful
8, " 1 ':! 8 1 ,"_ V !:_ 8aW :T. *°_ 8ee
again. Coming right up the main
channel of Silver Creek was a school
of trout, so dense, compact and solid
that they dammed up the waters and
caused it to overflow its banks. You
all know bow flat the country is on
each side of the stream; the conse
quence was the oveiflow extended
several hundred yards in width, and
out in this shallow water Were millions
upon millions of trout crowded out of
the main channel and floundering
around in the shallow water and
among the grass, all headed up stream.
I looked with astonishment at this
wonderful spectacle for a moment.
then turned and went back to camp
just as fast as I could, lold the
boys what I had seen. Hoffliger and
Campbell grabbed their fi-h poles and
Mahoneygot a four-bushel gunny sack. |
Well, gentlemen, 1 hope to die in
minute (and the liar looked as
honest as a judge) if there was a
single trout in sight when we got
there. And we fished all that eve
ning and all the next day and never
got a bite or saw a fish."
"What!" ejaculat d every one of
the listeners, in one bieath, "do you
expect us te believe such rot as this?
, o.i
where did thev go tor
• * .
"Hold on, gentlemen; now, just
hold on. That can be explained on
perfectly natural and scientific prin
ciples. If you are acquainted with
. . ,,, ,, , ,
the lower Silver Creek country, you i
know that it disappears and runs I
under the lava Now, we were
camped close to that place. The fish
.... <• „, . S
were coming up from their sub
,
terranean spawning ground. Of;
course you all know that the trout ia j
the shyest creature in the world; my |
presence disturbed them and they all
turned and went back under the lava.
"After we had worn ourselves . ut
without getting a nibble, we went
over to Bart Maize and gave him fifty
cents and he went out and caught us
. , , . ,
a string, and now that a the truth;
but don't tell the other fellows that 1
have given this thing away."

production of everything that will con
duce to the material welfare and comfort
of mankind are almost unlimited and
when Syrup of Ftgs was first produced
the world was enriched with the only
perfect laxative known, as it is the only
remedy which is truly pleasing and re
freshing to the taste and prompt and
effectual to cleanse the system gently in
the Spring time or, in fact, at any time
and the better it is known the more pop
ular it becomes.

An Improved Fuse-t ap Fastener.
Mr. N. W. Moodey of Fresno,
Fresno county, Cal., has recently
patented a device which i- especially
designed as an improved implement
for fastening th« caps on fuse em
ployed in exploding giant powder,
plie-rs are formed of two similar
parts, connected by the pivotal rivet,
each part having a cheek with notches.
the sides of which are cutting edges
for cutting the fuse. The curved
jaws beyond the cheek pieces, when
closed, form a circular aperture,
around which the jaws are beveled,
one jaw having a tongue which fits in
a groove in the ether jaw. The pliers
are employed for contracting the end
of the cap on the fuse fumly and at
solutely watertight, thus avoiding
l ^ e Js'iBerous operation of digging
out wet and unexuloded loads. Miners
. . . r - , . » .
who have used tmplemet ts of this
c |„ 88 w j|l appreciate the improve
ments in the one designed by Mr.
Moodey. The instrument crimps the
®fP un l * ie ^ u ®' > i* rn, ^- v '
1 he fuse-cutter is simple and efficient,
, hia iinp , MI „. nl U u ^ Uy golUn up of
the finest cast st-el and nickel plated,
It is small and light but strong and
we ^ adapted for its purpose.
It is well known that numbers of
.... ,
miners are killed annually in the
Unit( , d States alld e i 8ewhere while
going through the dangerous opera
tion of digging out wet and utiex
l> loded loads, to say nothing of those
los,n » *'* e ? e a >'"' b in ,he
way. Accidents of this nature could
b e aV oided, and the handling of giant
powdt r made comparatively sale, by
the use of an instrument such as this
invented by Mr. Moodey. Mining
compnnies would also relieve them*
ffom the liabj|iry of damage
suits were the use of such an instru
ment adopted hy them. Another
item of interest and benefit to mining
companies is the time saved in pre
paring the cap and fuse for use. In
stead «f taking timo to use soap and
a string of tar, after the usual effort
to fasten the cap to the fuse, this im
plement enables the miner to cut the
fuse and fasten the oap on firmlv, and
absolutely water tight; and this is
done in a few seconds, which means
no loss of time at all. Any one fami
liar with blasting operations can ap
preciate the advantages of this imple
ment.—Scientific Press.
