Kendrick, town of about 900 people,
situated on the fiat where the Potlatch
and Bear creek converge in narrow
canyon, suffered most. With rush
the waters engulfed~ the town and 80
frame business houses and number of
dwellings were soon floating down the
Potlatch river. So rapid was the rise
of the water that many people were
caught in the flood and rescued with
difficulty. Communication with the
flooded district by wire or rail has been
completely cut off and details as to loss
of life are unobtainable.
The town of Juliaetta, also on the
Potlatch, when last heard from before
the wires went down, was IN immi-
nent danger.
Lewiston reports that the Snake and
Clearwater rivers are rising rapidly
and threaten to overflow vast territory.
A Juliaetta Qda. special says that for
miles along the Potlatch there is no
vestige of track, ties or roadbed. Some
believe the Northern Pacific will not be
able to run trains over the branch be.
fore March. One informant says every
bridge and yard of track between Julia
eta and Clearwater rivers has been
washed out.

Large Amount of Railroad Track
Washed Out--TOWnS in
Danger.

SPOKANE, WASH, Jan. 16.-The floods
in the Potlatch and Clear Water rivers
are receding. The wires to the Ken
drick and Julietta districts are down,
hence meager information comes from
there, but enough to show that no
further damage has been done. Lewis
ton has mail for the first time in three
days. All travelling in that vicinity is
by wagons. Trains are everywhere
tied up in the valleys. The line of road
from Kendrick to Lewiston on the
Northern Pacific is obliterated in many
places, and no trains will run for two
weeks on that portion of the branch.
The weather in Eastern Washington is
cooler, and all danger from further
floods is believed to be passed.

Have you had LaGrippe? II you
have not, doubtless some of your
friends have suffered from it and you
have witnessed some Of the terrible
tortures it can infiict. You have
seen it suddenly and without warn
ing, sieze the victim in it's relentless
grasp and fairly wrench asunder the
flbers Of the nervous system. That
terrible pain in the back of the head
and shooting up and down the spine,
the throbbing temples, the aching
back and legs, the soreness in mus
cles and bones as if bruised or beat
en-, the feeble pulse, the tottering
step-all these are familiar to you.
But have you noticed the after eff
fects of LaGrippe? Do you know
that it weakens the lungs, enfeebles
the heart, deranges the stomach and
bowels and seriously interferes with
all functional operations of the body?

THREE DAYS DOWNPOUR.

Warrington and Idaho Rivers Become
Raging Torrents.
TACOMA, Jan. ia downpour of
rain for three days, together with pre-
vailing Chinook wind. melted the
snow and suddenly flooded several
western Washington valleys and a
great portion of Latah county, Idaho.
Hundreds of farms in Puyallup, Stuck
and White river valleys are under
water and the mountain streams are
raging torrents. The streets of Kent,
lying on the banks of the White river,
are flooded, and for distance
of three miles below town the
river is out of its bank. The county
bridge has been washed out at Sumner
and two others are damaged. The
Stuck has cut new channel for itself
across the Maloney fruit farm and into
the Puyallup.
The Northern Pacific has been unable
to get a westbound passenger train
into Tacoma since noon Friday.
Green river left its banks at Canton
and tore out long piece Of track along
the mountain side, where the work of
rebuilding is slow and difficult.
A special from Kendrick, Ida, states
that three children of Charles Ham.

have been drowned there.

Even after the disease is apparently
dead, the physical weakness, mental
apathy and depression Of spirits re-
main. Chronic disorders, which be-
fore we're unable to gain foothold,
now find an open door, inviting en-
trance to the system.
But there Is remedy that cures
LaGrippe and removes its dangerous
after effects. There are hundreds of
men and women in almost every com
munity, who were weak and des-

out courage, but who have recovered
health, heart and ambition through

"Thirty-six years of hard work to raise my
family and at the end to see them all taken
away from me quite unnerved me, so that
when LaGrippe got me in its clutches three
years ago, l was treated very roughly. When
the first attack was over found myself on
the very verge of insanity. My nerves were
so unstrung that could not control myself to
utter sound and the least noise caused ex.
circulating agony. My stomach was SO weak
that nothing could remain in it long enough
to do me any good and my heart futtered
continually. When l began taking DR..
Miles Nervine my mind became clear, my
nerves grew steady, my stomach was
strengthened and was saved from an exist
ance worse than DEATH"
