TO TRANSFORM A WILDERNESS.
irrigation Is Expected to Accomplish
Miracle.

irrigation Is Expected to Accomplish
a Miracle.
One of the most forbidding horizons
OF the North American continent has
been the desert of Idaho in the Snake
river region. Little besides sage grass
would grow there, and the lands, suit
able neither for agriculture nor graz
ing purposes, have been abandoned to
coyotes and noisome reptiles.
But OF late an almost miraculous
change has taken place in this region.
The government engineers thought
they saw promise of fertility there,
and the tract was chosen as one of
the earliest to be irrigated artificially
under the new scheme for which con-
gress has appropriated several million
dollars. At an expenditure of $780,
coo, which has been set aside for the
construction of great impounding
dams and diversion canals above the
MiIidoka rapids, fully $12,OOOOOO of
taxable property will be created in
this basin. Taking as basis the last
census agricultural figures for Idaho,
the 100000 acres to be reclaimed un-
der this project will, when settled un-
Ger irrigation, represent the latter
value, while the annual earnings of
the land will amount to about $4,000
600. With this area cut up into 1,4OO
new farms, as is proposed by the gov
eminent, a rural population will be
created of 1000, which will bring with
it an urban population of probably an
other 1000, or $4,000 people.

HUMAN EAR A DEFoRMlrY.

Stood Up Till Mashed Flat by Sleeping
on Pillows.
While the ears of animals" said a
naturalist, ARE erect and comedy. the
human ear is crumpled. crushed and
fattened. 1t is mans intelligence that
is responsible for this deformity of his
ear.
Mans brain, you see, has made his
head topheavy. An animals neck
alone furnishes enough support in
sleep, but mans neck is too weak to
sustain his brain-weighted skull, which
in consequence must be laid, with the
ear underneath. upon a pillow.
Man, have no doubt, had an erect
smooth, shapely ear in the beginning.
But his head, with its developing brain,
outgrew his neck's power to support
it. Thence came the head.rest, or pil.
low, with it's consequent crushing and
crumpling OF the ear, and thence came
the ear of to-day, deformity which,
being universal. is not deemed a dc.
fornity at all."-Washington Post.

SAVED CHlLD'S LIFE.
Remarkable Cure Of Dropsy by Dodd's
kidney Pills.


Sedgwick., Ark, July 1.-THE case
of w. S. Taylor's little son is looked
upon by those interested in medical
matters as one of the most wonderful
on record. In this connection his
father makes the following statement:
Last September my little boy had
Dropsy; his feet and limbs were
swollen to such an extent that he
could not walk nor put his shoes on.
The treatment that the doctors were
giving him seemed to do him no good
and two or three people said his days
were short; even the doctors. two of
the best in the country, told me he
would not get better. l stopped their
medicine and at once sent for Dodd's
Kidney Pills. gave him three Pills
q day, one morning, noon and night
for eight days; at the end of the
eighth day the swelling was all gone,
but to give the medicine justice l
gave him eleven more Pills. l used
thirty-f1ve Pills in all and he was en-
tirely cured. l consider your medicine

The Fisher Of Nippon.

Where now the brownie fisher lad?
His hundred thousand fishing boats
Rock idly in the reedy meats;
His baby wife no more is glad.
But yesterday. with all Nippon,
Beneath his pink-white cherry trees
In chorus with his brown, sweet bees,
He careless sang. and sang right on
Take care! for he has ceased to sing
His startled bees have taken wing!
His bees begin to storm and sting:
His seas fash lightning. and a flood
OF crimson stains their wide. whit
ring:
His battle-ships belch hell. and all
Nippon Is but one Spartan wall!
Aye, he, the boy of yesterday.
Now holds the bearded Russ at bay;
While. blossomd sleeps above, the clouds
Wait idly. still. as waiting shrouds.

WRONG TRACK.

Even the most careful person is ant
to get on the wrong track regarding
food sometimes and has to switch

The sarcastic advice annoyed him,

Still debating with himself, he came

Up it, as If to detain him, was Capt.
Hyde. The two men looked at each

cold, meaning emphasis

At the Swords Point.

Neils first emotion was not so much
one of anger as of exultation. IL shall
have him at my swords point" he
from HYDE to Van Heemskirk's house.
Katherine sat upon the steps of the
stoop. Touching her, to arouse her
attention, Neil said. Come with me
down the garden. my love"
She looked at him wonderingly but
rose at his request and gave him her
hand
Then the tender thoughts which had
lain so deep in his heart flew to his
lips. and he wood her with a fervor
and nobility as ASTONISHING to himself
as to Katherine. He reminded her of
all the sweet intercourse of their hap
by lives and OF the fidelity with which
he had loved her. "Oh, my Katherine,
my sweet Katherine! Who Is there
that can take you from me?"
"No one will marry. With my
father and my mother l will stay"
Yes, till you learn to love me as |

He turned from her as he said the
words, and, without speaking to Joris,
passed through the garden gate to his
own home.
In the calm of his own chamber,
through the silent, solemn hours.
when the world was shut out of his
life, Neil reviewed his position, but
he could find no honorable way out of
the predicament. He was quite SEN
sible that his first words to Capt.
Hyde that night had been intended to
provoke a quarrel, and he knew that
he"would be expected to redeem them
by a formal defiance. However, as

Remember Makaroff His death
should be the signal to destroy the old
order of things, of which he fell a
victim after heroically doing his best
with the defective weapons at his dis
posal. Makaroff's death marks a new
era for the Russian navy. The old
days marked by muddle of careless
ness and inefficiency are over, and we
have learned our lessons.

anxiety. Our nerves are strained much,
