Many and various are the discussions Of
the "new woman" but most of the women
we've seen have 10 aspirations toward the
emancipation Of their sex from any yoke
except the burdensome yoke of i'll health.
They all seem to think-and think rightly
that their proper field is their home, and to
work faithfully in this field she must be
strong and hearty. Care is peculiarly a
woman's heritage. But it was not the "ncw
woman" or any other kind of woman that
we started out to talk about. 1t is Il "man
in the case" this time, and n man, too, that
thinks he is the newest kind Of q "ncw
man."
From what he tells us, he has good cause
to think so. There is no comparison between
his present state Of feeling and that of two
years ago. But let the following speak for
itself. We published a few weeks ago a
statement of the miraculous cure of Mr.. J.
N. Foster, of Cartcr's Creek, now one Of the
Herald's men, from loco,notor ataxia 10 dis.
ease said to be incurable), by the use of DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
The account was read by numbers of peo.
pie who were eyewitness of his bodily suffer.
ing and who know what Mr.. Foster stated to
be true beyond Il peradventure of Il doubt
it was read by others, also, who believe it
just the same as if they, too, had seen all, be-
cause Mr.. Foster is well known over the
country to be u man of unimpeachable vera.
city.
So strong is his belief in the DIR. Will
liams' Pills, he has influenced a number Of
other people to use them, and all have be-
came Us new persons.
One of the number is a young man of
n. +. Murphy. lie is only twenty.one years
old, and being of rather Il delicate %constitu-
ton, has been afflicted the greater part of
his life.
Young Murphy says, he verify believes
that very few people Of any age or cline
have been called upon to endure the bodily
suffering which he has undergone.
In an interview with the Herald, he told
us the following, which We give in his own
words:

his feathers in the sun all through the

Let the Farmer Follow His Best

If every farmer were as enthusiastic
on the subject Of good methods on the
farm as lie is about having good and
favorable seasons for HIS farming oper-
ations, says the Nebraska Farmer,
there would bc Il grcat deal less mis-
cry in the world. One Of the phases
of practicing better mesauds that very
few farmers get any adequate Idea of,

ing in harmony, that the machine may,
without fail, do its work ehectually.
Any crop a farmer may cultivate, or
any kind Of live stock lie undertakes
to keep upon the farm, hns its relation
to other crops or kinds of stock to be
cultivated and raised, and this very re-
lation is the thing that should deter
mine the extent to which the farmer
is to go with his various operations.
The man with one idea. or a hobby
on the farm. generally has a hard road
to travel. He works without any of
the advantages that fiow from the
smaller economies. 1t is one thing to
make the ends meet, but it is another
and better thing to make them lap
over. This is what the up-to-late, all
around farmer is constantly doing. He
Is striving as far as lies in his power
to make of the farm a complete home.
He varies his methods, too, to suit the
occasion. And this is where the well
Informed farmer always has the ad-
vantage OF those who know little or
nothing as to what is passing in the
world outside their own immediate
neishborhood. 1t requires knowledge

ers are always waiting for an opportu-

that pushes prosperity into n farmers

main chance always, and he Is pretty
apt to succeed, provided his judgment

Dandeuon's Pretty Trick.

Our canary bird, Dandelion, named
for the blossom he so much resembles
in color, had the grip with the rest Of
the family. Mamma took him from
his cage every day and gave him medi:

enjoy being cared Cor as much as a
child would.
After his recovery his cage door was
left open all the time, and he would hop
all about the dining room. But he
spent most Of his time in q sunny south

Need of Good Roads.

The letter of l.. X. Armstrong,
of Spokane, published elsewhere,
is significant, and in line with
the suggestions made by the FREE
PRESS to every board of county
commissioners since the road was
built. Mr.. Armstrong is secretary
of the Northwest Mining Associa-
tion, representing the four states
Of Idaho, Montana, Washington
and Oregon, and therefore speaks
with authority. The state road to
Florence and Warrens should be
placed and kept in permanent re-
pair under the contract system. 1t
is valuable road to Camas prairie,
and every year of delay takes
away trade which otherwise natur-
ally belongs here. Let our county
commissioners act at their next
session. There is money in it for
everybody.

The l. o. o. +. opera house
never appeared to better advan-
tage than on the occasion of the
japanese ball last Tuesday even
ing. 1t was literal glimpse of
fairyland. Great Japanese um-
brellas were suspended from the
lofty ceiling, and running at an
giles and criss-cross were festoons
of dolls, lanterns and other of the
peculiar decorations affected by
the "little yellow man" of the
Orient. 1t was the first attempt
to give such an entertainment in
Grangeville, and the enterprise
was rewarded by IL liberal atten-
dance. The affair was gotten up
by the Daughters Of Rebekah, and
it was strictly an invitation ball.
The decorations were planned
and superintended by Mesdames
Riggs, Pfeufer, Bunncll, Markham,
Misses Ethel Jones, Abbie OLIVER
and Messrs. Bonebrake Davidson,
Riggs and Magee.
The music was furnished by
Messrs. Riggs, Bonebrake and
Greene, and to its dulcet tones the
guests danced the fast-speeding
hours away in pleasurable enjoy
ment.

DEAR SIR:-Several parties have
spoken to me during the past few
weeks about going into Warrens
with machinery next season, and
they all say that because of the
bad roads on your route they will
be compelled to go in from Weiser.
If am correctly informed the road
between Lewiston and Warrens is
a state road and l hope some ac-
ton will be taken, if possible, to
put it in repair early in the spring.
There is little doubt but there will
be movement in your direction
early, and good roads will do more
to encourage the investment Of
money than any other one thing.
How is Elk City going to be this
year and will you push work on
your own properties there? Spo-
kane feels lively interest in the
development of your country and
while great deal of attention has
been diverted in other directions,
l feel justified in saying that you
will meet a number of Spokane
people looking for Idaho county
properties during 1896.
Yours very respectfully,

Meadow creek is the section

supposed murder and cache of Won

shop" who travels loaded down
with all minerals known to science
at the present time, merely to
catch suckers and deceive the un-
educated who are eager to invest
in the visionary mine located in
some secluded glen in the Bitter
Root range. The schooling you
receive by this noted slick silent
educator is worth journey in the
higher range. l well remember
when Cy Overman, our efficient
sheriff, ordered us out last summer
to find the remains of Won Hubert,
the supposed dead man. We had
instructions to probe every pros
pect hole, nearly one million in
number, and search each thicket
for the missing lost one, so that
Won Hnbert's murders might not
go free. When all was ready un-
der orders to move, IL gentleman
from Freedom arrived and stated
that Won Hubert the "dead man"
is now at the John Day house on
Salmon river, reclining in the shade
of a tree, quietly smoking his pipe
and smilingly wonders if the d-n
fools will find his worthless carcass
in a prospect hole at New Flor
ence. l merely cite this instance
out Of several it has been my lot to
witness. l attended u similar
school tutored by "slick, silent
educator and walking specimen
shop" and gratutiously warn the
reader not TO invest in glittering
gems shown you by this class of
bilks and fakirs.
The present year is to be one of
great activity in our mining camps,
and the country will be flooded by
fakirs loaded with specimens to
catch the unweary, and / cannot
impress upon your mind too
strongly to beware of any and all
slick, silent educators.
