The merchant, the butcher, the

it allows you to owe it year after year

If you subscribe, and do not pay in

promptly at the end of the year, and
there lives not the man in this county

pay by the end of the year it would
not seem near so burdensome to him

Pocatello Tribune.
On Monday Tom Hall swooped
down on one of our red brethren who
had filled his skin full Of fire water
and expressed desire to avenge the
wrongs of his forefathers. After
Tom had landed the 'bucking brave"
at the hotel DeViney, and was
directing Barney how to apply the
tar poultices to his shrinking heels,
in walks Tom Davis with another
descendant of the great Powhattan,
whom he had fished out of an ash
barrel up ON First alley. This brave
made break for liberty while being
taken to the cooler, but as Davis
snapped the nippcrs on his wreathinl
wrist, he came down on his knees
like penitent sinner, and with al

Tom Ranahan informs the SIGNAL
that 140 days work has been secured
for the Mineral road. He disclaims
being the prime mover and says MIR.
NJ. L. Dickerson is entitled to most
of the credit. The move towards
building the road is almost entirely
confined to the people living down on
the fat, who will meet next Saturday
in Weiser to select a committee Of
five to superintend the work and
decide upon what day it will be com
menced. They expect to begin
throwing dirt by the 25th. The
board of trade should also meet in
the meantime and decide upon the
best plan offending assistance towards
the building Of the road as it will be
of inestimable benefit to us. While
giving the people of the fiat another
good accessible market for their pro
duce, it will also turn a new source
of revenue to the gates Of Weiser, as
the entire trade of the camp will
come here and all ore, coke, matt
etc, shspped in and out of the CAM
will be done by way of Weiser as th'
road will be easily travelled and tn
cost Of ferryage across Snake rive
will be saved each way. The peopl
of Mineral are well pleased over th
move. Mr.. Beach, who lives ol

Uncle Sam, Lend us Your

If some things that have come to

are true, there are matters and thugs |
going on in this county that calls for
an explanation OF some sort from
some one and when the matter gets
to the ears of Uncle Sam he will no
doubt pry into the affair with a
government crowbar. In last weeks
SIGNAL it was mentioned the report
that some one had broken into, the
silent post Office at Helena. 1t seems
the office was gone, leaving only the
building it once occupied. The
people of Helena have waited in vain
for its return. 1t don't return worth
a cent 1t will also be remembere d
that the SIGNAL mentioned that Mr..
Brackett made trip to Helena
last month with view to establishing
a mail route either from Council
valley TO Helena or from Baker to
Helena. The postal department
decided to establish a route from
Council to Helena via Dale, and
posted notices in all post offices along
the route to the effect that sealed bids
> for carrying the mail would be re-
Q ceived on September 18th by the

Alum and Ammonia In Our Bread

Alum and Ammonia Ia Our Bread
A nuisance that troubled England
fifty years ago is now rapidly spread
ing in this country, that is putting
Alum in the bread we eat. This
question is causing a great deal OF
discussion at the present moment, as
it is revealed that alum is being used
as a substitute for cream of tsrtcr in
baking powders. A story is told
that very large percentage of the
baking powders sold on the market
contain either alan orammonia, and
MANY of them contain both these
pernicious drugs. Much timely
alarm is felt at the wholesale use of
alum in bread, biscuit and pastry.
To young ch lrn, growing girls,
persoi S of weakly frame, alum bread
eaten morning noon and evening Is
the most harmful. III is the small
quantities taken at every meal that
do the mischief. Alum is cheap,
costing but two or three cents
pound while cream of tartar costs 30cr
and the high price of cream OF tartar
has led cheap baking powder to be
made of alum. If the reader want
TO know something of the corrosive
qualities of alum let him touch piec
to his tongue then reflect how it act
on the tender delicate coats of tn
stomach.

Semitic American, of the alum an
