IDAHO presents another evidence of the
good effects of the present Indian policy 1t
is stated that nearly five hundred OF one OF
the tribes settled in that territory have heart
lily embraced the gospel. A still more note
worthy fact connected with these Indians is
that they have decided to give up the use of
tobacco. Though very fond of it they affirm
to have discovered an admonitioa against the
habit in the Scriptures, where 1t stands writ
ten: eff thy right hand offend thee, cut it
off" This is making this class of red men
more conscientious than the average Journal

schools as being ''neither more nor less than

M. F. Gannett, President of the lady mana
gers, in her report 10 the trustees, says: ...
The number of children who have been in
mates OF the Home during the year is seven
ty-three. OF these, twenty have been re-
moved in various ways. Eight have returned
to their mothers, one to her guardian, three
have been adopted, three have been provided
with good homes where their position is more
or Jess nearly that of children, and five of
the older boys have good homes in the coun-
try where they are learning to work. The
number of children in the family at present
is fifty-three. There has been no death in
the family during the year, and only few
cases of serious illness. The behavior of
the children, taking the year through,
has been generally satisfactory. The
children attend the public schools as
heretofore, and are making some progress in
their studies. We have one in the high
school, four in the grammar school, and all
the rest in the various primary schools. The
children are regular in attendance at church
and the Sabbath School.
The officers ask for $4,000 as the least
sum with which the institution can be sue
cessfully managed during the ensuing year.
Last year the State appropriated $4,000 and
1856 43 was derived from other sources.
The treasurer showed a balaDce in favor Of
the institution of $579 40.

Do Not Advertise.

The following from a California ex-
change expresses our own sentiments
exactly, and wo transfer without com.
ment, believing that our readers will ap'
preciate its truth
Don't do it, Don't advertise your
business; it's paying out money TO ac'
commodate other people. If they want
to buy your goods let them hunt YOU up.
Don't advertise, for it gets your name
abroad, and You are apt to be Hooded
with circulars from business houses, be
bored with drummers from the wholesale
establishments soliciting your order for
new goods, and money to pay for them
which is very annoying to one OF dys-
peptic temperament.
Don't advertise, for it brings people
in from the country Country folks, you
know, are of an inquirng turn OF mind
aud they will ask you many astonishing
questions about prices, try your temper
with showing them goods, and even veX
you with the request to tie them up
which puts you to an additional trouble
of buying more
Don't advertise ; it gives people abroad
q knowledge of your town, and they
come and settle in it; it will grow, and
other business will be induced to come
in and thus increase your competition.
In short, if you would have quiet
town, not too large; if you would not
be harrassed by multitudinous cares and
perplexities of business; if you would
avoid being bothered with paying for and
losing time to read great cumbersome
newspaper, just remain quiet; don't let
the people know five miles away where
you are, nor what you are doing, and
you will he severely let alone to enjoy
