blocks on the black board representing
as many dollars, and before the close Of

the blocks had been taken. The church

WASTED AMBITION.

There was an old hen in Plateau

And said that she crowed like a caugh (;
The other hens cackled
To think that she'd tackled
A job that she couldn't do haugh.

Last evening Under Sheriff George r
Barton took possession of the stock OF
the Gibson Tailoring establishment upon
an attachment sworn out by the

that attachment means were resortsd to
to restrain him from disposing OF tho
goods.

Washington, ID. When u

out with q rash which was thought to
be measles. In a few days he had a
swelling on the left side of his neck
and it was decided to be humps. He
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said it was scrofula and ordered a
salve. He wanted to lance the sore,
but / would not let him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
months when the bunch broke ir two
places and became a running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofula and
each ordered a blood medicine. A
neighbour told me of a case somewhat
like our baby's which was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla. | decided to
give it to my boy and in a short while
his health improved and his neck
healed SO nicely that / stopped giving
him the medicine. The sore broke
out again, however, whereupon / again
gave him Hoods Sarsaparilla and its
