TAREE
which to cross the Desert. After three
days hard travelling we reached the
mountains, with just about & gallon of
water for ourselves and none for the
burros, and to our dismay the tanks,
which we had no trouble in finding,
were empty.
‘We then gave up all hopes of pros-
pecting unless we could find water. Af-
ter hunting the remainder of the day we
found another tank but the burros emp-
tied that before we could get any.
That settled the prospecting and the
only thing we thought of was how to
get over the 70 miles of desert with only
a gallon of water. We decided that
Jim should ride one of the burros and
go on about 30 miles to a tank which
was never known to be dry, where he
should fill the water bags and come back
to meet me, as I was to follow with the
other animals.
Giving Jim all the remaining water,
as I had about a dozen cans of tomatoes,
we separated. The following day I
reached the tank to find it empty, and a
note from Jim, traced in the sand, say-
ing that he had gone on to the Arho for
help.
There was nothing forme to do but
follow. That afternon the burros com-
menced to suffer for want of waterand
it was hard work to keep them moving
but giving each two cans of tomatoes
which seemed to revive them, I decided
to travel all night with the hopes of get-
ting far enough so that if I had to aban-
don them, I would have strength enough
to pull me through.
I travelled all night until about noon
the next day when the burros ga ve out.
Taking their packs off I rolled two cans
of tomatoes in my blanket,giving the rest
to the burros, and, slinging my pack on
my back, started ; but the loss of sleep
and tomato diet had so exhausted me
that I was too weak to carry my pack,
so making a tent of my blanket I crawl-
ed under and slept until dark. I then
decided to try to reach the Dripping
Spring which judged was about 30
miles to the East. Taking off all my
clothes but my shirt, hat and shoes
leaving them and my blanket in a
bundle, started, with my revolver, com-
pas and remaining can of tomatoes. At
this point I first actually began to suffer
for lack of water. My tongue was
swollen and my throat dry and parched.
Filling my mouth with tomato juice I
hurried along as fast as possible, for I
dreaded the day, when the sun would
beat down at about 140°, and wished to
cover as great a distance as possible be-
fore ther.
By seven o'clock the next morning I
could see the mountains in which the
spring was located ; I knew them well,
having been there but a few weeks
before, they were only about two miles
away but by this time I was so weak
that I stumbled and fell frequently.
The last tomato can had disappeared
a couple of hours before. My tongue
had swollen and pushed itself out of my
mouth; when I breathed my throat
felt as though it were lined with leather.
By ten o’clock I had traveled about four
miles but was so weak could with diffi-
culty get on my feet and breathing was
intensely painful.
was water—I could see it just ahead of
me. At first it looked like a large lake.
I started to run when it commenced to
get smaller and smaller, then to disap-
pear altogether and I could see nothing
but the mountain. I laughed. What
was that strange noise ? it sounded like
a combination between a croak ‘and a
gurgle, I stopped and looked around but
could see nothing. I thought then I
was getting delirious and knew when I
lost my reason that I would be lost,
which made me laugh again, then I
discovered the cause of the strange
sound, it was my laugh!!!! I fell
again and lay there for about ten min-
utes, then staggered to my feet and in
my misery cried “Good God am I
crazy ?”’—the mountains had dizappear-
ed and in their place were huge demons
laughing, grinning and mocking me.
One of them offered me a drink of water,
I reached for it only to have it tantaliz-
ingly poured out on the sand and disap-
pear before I could gather it in my
hands. I begged for only a drop but
the demon laughed me to scorn, In
my misery I shook my fist and cursed
him, but the vision faded and there were
the mountains grim and foreboding,
sole witnesses of my sufferings.
For two weary hours I pushed on,
my eyes burning like live coals while
strange fantasies danced through my
throbbing brain, and finally reached the
top of a small hill whence looking down
into a gully, beheld a ghastly sight.
Three dead corpses, not decomposed,
but dried and wizened by the scorching
sun and hot dry air, were stretched un-
‘Jer a wagor: bed where they had doubt-
less crawled in their death agonies to
get a little protection from old ‘Sol’s
burning rays. After frantically search-
ing in vain through the rubbish strewn
around if perchance some kind Fate
might find me just a drop of water to
slake my msddening thirst, I dragged
the bodies from theirfshady retreat and
crawling under, lay down to suffer a
thousand deaths until kind Providence
should put an end to my miserable ex-
istence. - About dark I awoke from ‘the
stupor into which I had fallen, only to

Good, honest goods at fair and reasonable
find myself surrounded by a pack of
fiendish, looking skeletons grinning 2%
and deriding me with their long bony
fingers. Staggering up I drew my re-
volver and with trembling hand aimed
at these horrible mockers. They scatter-
ed but my horror was only intensified
when there came swooping down upon
me, something less of man and more of
devil, striking with its hooked talons at
my senseless flesh. Happily insensibili-
ty overcame me and I knew nothing
more until I awoke next morning at
Dripping Spring to find Jim pouring
water into a sponge thrust between my
teeth.
WOMANI
After leaving me Jim had pushed on
to the tank and. finding it empty, con~
tinued his journeying toward the Arbo
until his burro gave out. Then he wan-
dered on foot over the remaining dis-
tance reaching the Arho moredead than |
alive. Finding no one there he pur-
sued his wearisome journey to the ranch,
three miles distant, and meeting George
Lane by the wayside, started back to
succor me. Discovering my dead bur-
ros, they took to my trail, gathering my
scattered garments and pushing on in
haste with the fear of finding me dead.
Enabled at first to follow by the emp-
ty tomato cans,they finally lost the trail
and had about dispaired of finding me
when they were startled at hear-
ing several shots. Searching for
a short time they found me sit-
ting beneath the wagon shooting at
the bodies which I had placed a few
feet away, for a target. Jim shouted
and started on a run to me when I fired,
the bullet whizzing through the rim of
his hat. Knocking the revolver out of
my hand he poured the contents of his
canteen on my face, and then placing
me in the wagon made for Dipping
Spring a distance of three miles. Here,
as though it had been the stream of
Lethe, wetried to seek forgetfulness from
our past agonies, but after resting for
several days IT decided truly time and
distance could help to banish these hoz-
rible memories and hence started for

fanned my feverish brow almost making
me think I had just been the victim
of a hideous nightmare:

SEVERE EYE TROUBLE.
I have been troubled with some Eye disease
for some time. The pain was almost unbear-
able at times, and I couldn't think of reading
or sewing at any time. I put myself under
the care of Dr. Salm, who visits Butler every
four weeks, and after only three months treat.
ment, I consider myself entirely cured, and I
can safely say that my eyes feel better and
have better vision than at a Snes within the
last twelve years. 18. P, GOLDEN,

On August 27, 1890, I went to Dr. Salm, who

the question. After having had the first treat.

RUNNING OF THE EARS.
Our little son Brinton has for the last five
years had running of both ears, and the same
was so offensive that it was almost impossible
to be near him ; he became emaciated pale
and puny, and was nearly always crying on
account of the pain. We had him treated in
Linesville, Clarion and Oil City by the best
home physicians, but no cure resulted and we
might just as well have thrown our money in
the fire.. Dr. Salm has been treating him for
three months, and an eutire and splendid cure
has been made by him on Brinton.

so that my friends and myself became very
