Heart Failure.
HOW TO AVOID 1T.

The epitaph on many a tombstone is
heart failure" No wonder, when we con-
slider the immense strain which is put on
that small organ. Marvellous as it is, beating
100000 times and exerting a force equal to
o,l84,0O0 pounds daily, it has its limit-its
endurance often is too severely tested. So
common are diseases of the heart-though
often for a considerable time without the
suspicious of the afflicted person being in
the least excited-that it is stated that one
person IN four has bad heart! DIR. Franklin
Miles, of Elkhart, Ind, has for years made
special study of all diseases of the heart.
and his remarkable success has made his
name familiar one in all parts of our land.
He has found the most common symptoms
of heart disease to be pain, distress or tender
ness in the chest odck, stomach, 6oaueIs, left
shoulder and arm, shOrtness Of breath, smother
ing spells, faInting etc.

SWEET IS LOYAL.

The C@ur d'Alene Press has a
happy faculty of calling things by
their right names. Here is what
it says about the Moscow Mirrors
attack on Sweet and Dubois:
"The efficient work of Sweet and
Dubois, during the campaign for
the whole of the ticket, from con
gresham down, is 80 well known
to the people Of the state that the
drivel of the sucker of gubernator-
ial pap will have very little weight.
Whom the gods would destroy they
first make mad, the Mirror is in
a position to be destroyed-to lose
what little influence it has. In es-
timating its influence you should
count the coyote not its bowls.
Some Of the shady transactions
of the Mirrors friends at the state
convention will not stand the light
of day and if its unjust war on
Sweet and Dubois is kept up they
will receive an airing backed by the
sworn statements of honorable men
showing who used "boodle" for the
purpose of bribing delegates-trans-
actions that would bring the blush
of shame to the cheek of any honor
able man. Congressman Sweet
supported the ticket Loyalty from
the first and it was mainly through
his persuasive manners and inhu-
cnce that the legislative ticket was
victorious in this county.

THE SENATORIAL CONTEST.
EsAU OR JACOB

Under the headline of "Esau's
hand; Jacobs voice" the Salt Lake
Tribune's Washington correspond
ent telegraphs a column of matter
In reply to an article by a Bonner's
Ferry republican on the senatorial
question. The Tribune can free its
mind from the supposition that the
writer of the latter article had
any consultation with anyone
about the subject. If either
Senator Dubois or Mr.. Sweet
should see the article in question
1t will be for the first time in the
columns of the Tribune. Among
other things the Tribune says:
"The Tribune correspondent from
Bonner's Ferry, Bartlett Sinclair,
in last Sundays issue took occasion
to discuss the senatorial question
at some length. To those who read
between the lines of the article re-
ferred to the undertone seems to
come from Washington rather than
Bonner's Ferry. The hand may
be that of Esau, but the voice
sounds very much like Jacobs. 1t
might be suffered to pass in silence
but after much honied commen-
dation" of Senator Shoup the indi-
rect charge is made that by allow
ing his name to be used for the SEN
atorial position he did something
which to the sensitive mind of Mr..
Sinclair is political immortality.
Now to this charge the friends of
Senator Shoup wish to file strong
and emphatic denial. Those who
know Senator Shoup know assur-
eddy that he is incapable of violat-
ing a trust, breaking a pledge or
betraying confidence"

A PRINTERS DEVIL.

If there is any thing in the his
tory of Americas great men which
distinguishes them from the great
men of all other nations it is the
fact that SO many of them have
started from the humblest walks in
life. This is what the Rathdrum
Post says of Willis Sweet:
Every printer should take just
pride in the advancement to honor
able positions of members of the
craft. In this connection we refer
to Honorable Willis Sweet. Mr..
Sweet has filled all the positions in
a printing office from galley boy up
to editor, and in each he has always
excelled."
