HARMS ON FOOD
ADULTERAT|0Ns.
City Chemist Lectured Before
The Mems Club Last
Evening.
AMERICANS ARE AWAKENING
To the Necessity Of Action In the
Matter of "Doctorcd'' Food and
Rcgula

State Chemist Harms lectured before
tiona church last night, on Food Adul-
terations. His lecture treated on those
authorizations injurious to health and
those that are not He urged the abol-
ton Of the former, and the regulation
Of the latter by having them branded
by proper labels, showing the exact
nature Of the contents OF the pckage.
Prof. Harms emphasized the impor-
tance OF pure food to the public health,
and said that millions Of dollars are
spent annually for adulterated foods
He was glad that the American people
are awakening to the necessity Of action
In the matter, as indicated by the legis-
lation that had been enacted In many
states OF the union. He then said:
ANTISEPTlCs INJURIOUS.

food as any article used by man as

wholly or partially extracted; when an

measures, as II is universal food and
the only food consumed by children and
invalids whose vitality and digestive or.
gans should not be further oyeIbur-
dened to overcome the preser-
Yative effects OF added antiseptics.

goods at a third of the cost and our
remnant sales are marvels of reduc-

not be here. Every lady is kept posted

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life. 1t is a feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make US more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
q crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And VIII,
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear a.
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like a vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
ly be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like

laborers engaged in draining some
marshy land. 1t was purchased by
Prof. Warren, of the Harvard Medical
school. Because of its fine state of
preservation. the skeleton being al

attention among scientific men. 1t
was kept in a little stone house, just
off Beacon street, in the Back Bay
According to the will of DR.. Warren
the mastodon was left to his child
rem and could not be sold by them
After the death of his last child the

Nampa Reservoir VIII Cost s2O,1t1.


The board of directors of the Nam
pa-Meridian irrigation district met
here this morning and opened the bids
for construction of the Nampa reser-
volr, which is to supply water for
Nampa and for the beet sugar factory
which is being built. The lowest bid
was by Faris-Kesl Construction COM
pany of Boise, which was $20,111.
Three other bids were opened, the
lowest of which was $26,226 and the
highest $4,000. The contract for
constructing the reservoir will not be
signed until all arrangements have
been made for securing the necessary
money, which is to be furnished by
Nampa, the sugar factory people and
the irrigation district.
The board also listened to COM
plants from persons living on the
Deer Flat reservoir site in which they
requested that they be allowed to use
water for the land this year. With
one exception they have relinqulshed
all claim to their lands within the res
ervoir site. The matter was taken
