'SAVED jllY LIFE"

That's what a prominent
druggist said of SCOTS
Emulsion a S h ort time
ago. As a rule we don't
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public.
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec-
ton with SCOTS Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age SCOTS
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying i'm
proper and weak develop
ment. restoring lost flesh
anil vitality. and repairing
waste. The &C t i o n of
SCOTS Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul-
sion itself. What it does
it does through nourish-
ment-the kind of nourish-
ment that cannot be OBJ
tanned in ordinary food.
No system is too weak or
delicate to retain SCOTS
Emulsion and gather good
from it.

Killed wife by Accident

Mrs. Charles Olson. wife of a prom
inent rancher and sheep raiser, living
about is miles from this city, was ac-
cidentalfy shot and killed by her hus-
band this morning.
Mr.. Olson had been bothered con-
siderably of late by coyotes eating his
chickens and his farm fowls. He
borrowed a Winchester rifle with
which TO shoot them. This morning
he and his wife were preparing to go
to another ranch belonging to Mr..
Olson to assist in putting up hay,
when Mrs. Olson observed coyote
chasing the chickens. She called to
her husband, who got the rifle and
proceeded to throw she'll from the
magazine into the breech block. The
gun was rusty and worked hard.
Suddenly there was an explosion,
and Mrs. Olson fell to the floor, the
ball having penetrated her groin, sew
ering the femoral artery. A messen-
ger was dispatched to Weiser for a
physician, but the unfortunate woman
died before he arrived. The wound
was in such a position 1t was almost
impossible to stanch the flow of blood.
The husband is nearly frantic with
grief. Mrs, Olson was 3S years of ago
and leaves two children.-Weiser Sig

The victor seizes its motionless prey

previously dug. She thrusts it in, de-
posits an egg upon 1t and covers it up.
In this case the bulk of the tarantula

Navigation Suspended.

-. The o. R. & N. company's steamer
Lewiston did not reach the city yes
terday, and late in the afternoon a
message was received to the effect
that the boat had ascended the river
as far as Almonta and was there
compelled to turn back. No cause
was suggested, but 1t is stated the
river has now reached a stage too low
for navigation with vessel of the
Lewiston's class, and it is not believ-
ed the company will try to maintain
the service until a raise in the river
this fall. The river yesterday regis
tered about eight-tenths of a foot
above low water mark, which is con-
siderably below any record on file at
the weather bureau. The water con-
tinues to recede at the rate of about
a tenth OF foot in two days, and it
is predicted that a new low water
mark will be established unless the
mountain sections are visited by
heavy rains during the next two
weeks.-Lewiston Tribune.

SUMMER CATARRH.
Disease Prevalent Now, But Can BE

A great many people suffer more
with catarrh during the summer

ing to have a bad effect upon the
disease.
When the usual method of treat
ing catarrh has been used In vain,
the guarantee of Tallman & Co. thai
they would refund the money If Hy-
omei failed to cure catarrh, has in
duced many sufferers to use this
remedy and be freed from all catar-
rhal troubles. Some of the cures
made by Hyomei seem marvellous
when one remembers that the pa
tients had suffered from catarrh since
childhood and that for years they had
been unable to get a good nights
sleep, on account of the disagreeable
tickling and dropping at the back of
the throat caused by this offensive
disease. A few days treatment with
Hyomei brought quick relief, and
its continued use made a complete
and lasting cure.
BY breathing Hyomei through the
pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit. all the air passages of
the lungs and throat are filled With
air laden with Natures own RENE
dies for the cure of catarrh. All
disease germs are killed, and the ir-
ritated mucous membrane Is healed.
The complete outfit costs but
$1.00, extra bottles so cents. Com
pare this small expense with the fees
charged by specialists and remember
that II Hyomei does not cure, Tallman

Earthquakes generally do their work
with great rapidity, but there are ex-
ceptlons. While Caracas and Lisbon
were destroyed in few minutes, the
Calabrian earthquakes beginning in
1888 lasted four years. Earthquakes
travel across the earth at velocitles
varying between several hundred and
several thousand feet a second, the
greater the intensity of the shock the
greater being the velocity. The sea
waves that frequently accompany
earthquakes also travel at tremendous
speeds. A submarine earthquake near
the coast Of Japan in 1854 gave rise to
sea waves which traversed the whole
breadth OF the Pacific at the rate of
370 miles an hour. At Simoda, Japan,
the waves from this earthquake were
thirty feet high. At San Diego Cal,
they We're only six inches high.

A Persistent Fighter.

The measures of Wilberforce in the
British house of commons for the abol-
ishing of the British slave trade had a
hard struggle before they finally pre-
vailed. On Feb. Is, 1906, Wilberforce
moved without entering into any ar
gument" for a bill to abolish the slave
trade after a limited time and for a
committee to consider its propriety.
He had been introducing such bill
almost every year for fifteen years, al
though his twelve resolutions against
the traffic were carried in 1889 without
division. But year after year the bill
came to wreck, either In the house of
lords or the commons, suffering defeat
In 1796 because several Of its support
ers had gone to see a new comic opera.
1t was doomed to disaster again in
1905, but finally triumphed in 1907.

RID OF MOSQUITOES.
Smoke From OF Burning Engine:
Has Good Effect.

The use of oil on the big mountain
engines on the Southern Pacific COM
pany stationed at Spark, New, a few
miles east of Reno. has resulted in
Kidding the Truckee meadows Of
thousands Of mosquitoes and other in
sectH which for years made the mead
ows place almost impossible to live
IN.
This transformation has taken
place in little less than a year. When
the shops and railroad division were
established at the new town, the
workmen In many instances were
compelled to wear netting over their
heads In order to carry on their work.
Now mosquito Is seldom seen there,
and 1t Is prophesied that within the
next 10 months these pests will be
entirely eradicated.
Railroad officials who have watch
ed the diminutlon in the ranks of the
insects say the change has been
brought about by the fumes from the
smoke of oll-burning engines. Often
the low lands surrounding the town
and river bottoms near the railroad
shops are covered with smoke from
the 40 or more engines housed In
the nearby round house.

The Sword ofaKnirht.

The sword of noble knight was
mentioned almost as often as himself
In the songs of the troubadours of the
middle ages. In the olden time this
trusty weapon was named and person
flied as accomplishing countless bril-
liant deeds. In the proverbs Of all ma
tlons 1t is spoken of with reverence and
trust. 1t represents the rank and re-
nown. the herolsm and honor, the glory
and greatness, Of nations In the past
One of the first weapons made by man,
1t became his most important arm and
auxiliary Of warfare. 1t has always
been the visible badge of birth, bravery
and freedom. To surrender 1t was to
admit defeat and disgrace. So long has
1t been the constant companion of rank
and valor that it has acquired dignity
Of its own. Like no other weapon, II
has a quality entirely distinct from Its
character as blood shedder In Eng.
land even at the present day the sword
alone is considered adequate to confer
knighthood.

miles northeast of Bickleton was Wis
tied by one of the worst hail and rain
storms in its history. The storm be-

for half an hour; the hail and rain fell
in torrents. It was accompanied by a
wind which did great damage to
crops, especially wheat. The hail was
very large and stock that was exposed
to it suffered greatly. The roads were
damaged considerably, the road be-
tween here and Arlington being so
badly damaged that 1t could not be
used for some days and the stage had
to go over another road. Gene Mace
