ECZEMA.
The Way to Treat This Distressing
Aniction.

Eczema can, even when inherited, be
controlled by attention to the general
principles of alth-cleanliness, exer-
else, proper diet, clothing and ventila-
ton. Eczema patients, old and young,
should never use stimulants In any
form. They should take daily baths
and be most particular rs to the regu-
larity of all important bodily functions.
| Occasional doses of mild saline aperi-
ents, such as cream tartar, phosphate
of soda or the old fashioned remedy Of
lac sulphur and cream tartar, mixed in
equal quantities, with enough molasses
to form creamy paste and taken
three times day for ten days running,
then omitted until again required, will
be found of wonderful benefit. Let the
patient drink freely of lemonade and
avoid salt meats, pork in any form,
and live upon diet of fruits, red
meats and antiscorbutic vegetables.
Many people are particularly suscep-
tible to shelltish and case of eczema
sometimes follows the eating of lobster
repeatedly. Strawberries will also pro
duce this effect frequently. Vigorous
exercise will often, by Inducing excess
i've perspiration, act as a curative fol
eczema, particularly when combined
with the use of harmless eXterna
application. Sulphur baths are etfica
cious for most skin diseases. If possi
BILE, 1t is well to take them In an estab
lished bath house, but they may be pre-
pared at home as follows: To each tel
gallons of water add an ounce Of sui
phuret of potassium, or to each fifteeI
gallons of water add an ounce of sui
phuret of calcium. Where there is itch
ing and the eruption seems virulent tn
sulphur bath is excellent as prelimi
nary treatment.

Blood Poison From Fly Bite.

Charley Eglin, son of the old pio-

city yesterday afternoon to have a
physician examine his right hand,
which he carried in a sling.
Mr.. Eglin claims that green house
fly bit him on the hand in a place
where the skin had been abrased, from
the effects of which blood poisoning
had set in, His hand and arm were

Tn. stone Forest. of Ari.ona.

The regions of the Little Colorado
river in Arizona abound In wonderful
vegetable petrifactions, whole forests
being found In some places which are
hard as flint but which look as II but
recently stripped Of their foliage. Some
Of these stone trees are standing just
as natural as life, while others are
piled across each other just like the
fallen monarch of real wood forest.
Geologists say that these stone trees
were once covered to the depth Of a
thousand feet with mari, which trans
formed them from wood to solid rock.
This mari after the lapse Of ages wash
ed out, leaving some of the trees stand
ing In an upright position. The major
ity Of them, however, are piled helter

PINK LEMONADE.
Ths story OF Its Introduction to the
Circus PublIc.

Tn0 story OF It's INTRODUCTION 10 inc
Circus Public.
"Old Peter Conklin. the clown" said
circus official, was the first to give
pink lemonade to the world.
at dates back to 1857, when Conklin
was travelling in the south with Jere
Mabie's big show. Conklln had II dis
pute with Mable and jumped the show
down In Texas. I've had the story
right from his own lips He bought n
couple of mules and an old covered
wagon, some tubs, tartaric acid, n
lemon, a bushel or two of peanuts and
started in the refreshment business.
He followed the circus with his wagon,
and every time the tents were pitched
he would mount box and harangue
'he crowd with:
Here is your ice cold lemonade,
Made in the shade,
Stick your finger In the glass:
It'll freeze fast
1.-THE lemonade sold splendidly, and
he couldn't wait on the people fast
enough. One day he was surrounded
by mob scrambling for the juice,
when his water supply ran out. There
were no wells or springs at hand. He
rushed into the big tent, but there was
ne'er a drop of water to be had. In hi
excitement he invaded the dressins
tent. Fannie Jameson, the bareback
rider, was wringing out pair of plnl
| tights, the aniline dye coloring the wa
ter very pretty shade, Conklin didn'
stop to ask any questions. He grabbed
up the tub and ran. Into the tub b.
threw some acid and the property lem
on and called out:
"'Come quickly. Buy some fin
strawberry lemonade
His sales were doubled that day
and since then no well regulated circu
is without pink lemonade. However
we do not make it the same way now
and sometimes strawberries are use
as we'll as lemons" Exchange.

HOW TO HOLD SHUTTING SOILS.
South Ainsworth Man Makes Some
Suggestions.


Suggestions.
Hints from the Wallula Gateway ms
to how shifting soils may be held down
and made productive:
j. r. Greer of South Ainsworth, was
in the city last Friday. Mr.. Greer is
endeavoring to make the sage brush
bloom ia that section. In relating his
experience to the Gateway man. ho
says that the only serious drawback
that he encountered was the shifting
sand which insisted on cutting Off
and burning up the more tender vege-
tation. When the ground is cleared
and ready for planting in the spring
1t presents a perfectly smooth surface
and is at the mercy OF the winds.
Now in order to overcome this OBJ
stacle something must be raised to
break the force of the wind This
may be done by planting a close row
of trees around the land with rows
running across it every 200 or 500
feet But this reqires two or three
years to make a successful wind break
and for immediate use something else
must be substituted.
He advocates the idea of planting
rows of sunflowers every 25 or SO
feet and planting the vegetables be-
tween the rows. The sunflowers are
hardy plant upon which the sand
has no effect. They make a quick
growth in the spring and are large
enough to afford ample protection be
fore the other plants are up. The row!
should be run as far as possible dag
noally with the wind. AS the prevail
ing winds are from the southwest th'
rows should be east and west or i
possible northwest and southeast.

BRUNSWICK STEW.
A Gastronomic Triumph With n Na-
tiOnal Reputation.

This celebrated stew originated In
Brunswick county, Va, from which 1t
takes its name-a county most famous
in antebellum days for its perfect
cuisine and gastronomical predilec-
tions. The originator was either Mr..
Haskins or Mr.. Stith, each claiming
during a long life the distinction of
having made the first stew and dying
without a proper adjustment of the con-
troversy. While made everywhere In
the habitable globe, it is seldom made
properly. 1t was introduced In Paris
by Judge John T. Mason Of Virginia.
Only in Brunswick county is this stew
so appetizlng, so piquant in the season
ing to be found in all its perfection.
To this remark of the writer made to
a gentleman in the far south he re-
plies, 1.-The egotism Of a Virginian
suggests perfection in all things there,
and the slow pace Of the state ample
time to arrive at it." The recipe Is as
follows: One Of three kinds Of meat Is
used-lamb, chicken or squirrel. If
chicken, 1t is first parboiled, cut up as
II to fry, the outer skin removed. then
put on in hot water-a-plenty to cover
it--a large onion cut fine, a large slice
Of middling meat cut fine, black and
red pepper in abundance and salt
After cooking until the bones can be
extracted, and hot water added II not
enough, corn cut of the cob and to
matoes chopped fine are added, with
half a pound of butter, more pepper
and salt. Before serving add stale
light breadcrumbs. Never add Irish
potatoes or butter beans or any vege
table save corn and tomatoes. Serve
In a tureen. 1t should be the consist
ency of thick soup and very highly sea
soned. 1t is considered one Of the
finest of stews and has national
reputatlon.-Richmond Times

Forestalling Interest.

The directors Of school district No.
5 will probably arrange, in bonding
the district anew, to pay off about
$1,000 per year of the debt, which is
a wise provision. There is no good
reason for paying interest forever,
with no attempt to pay the principal.
and the directors of the district should
be commended for making an effort
to pay the principal as fast as posi-
ble.-Union Republican.

As to Bow Legs.

A bow legged man usually possesses
more than ordinary strength. Why?
Because his legs In supporting great
weight can bend In one direction only,
whereas the man with straight legs Is
inclined to be wabhy. Such being the
case, why should not knock kneed
man be stronger than bow legged
one7 His knees, being braced against
each other, ought to be more steadfast
than legs bending outward. Yet we all
know that the knock kneed man gener-
ally goes into consumption and Is at all
times weaker than his bow legged
brother.-New York Press.

GREAT MUSIC.
The Mystical Influence 1t WieIds Over
Our Sensibilities.

Our
Great music is a physical storm, agi-
tating to unimaginable depth the mys-
terry of the past within us or we
might say it Is a prodigious incanta-
ton, every different instrument and
voice making separate appeal to diff
ferent billions of prenatal memories.
There are tones that call up all the
ghosts Of youth and JOY and tenden-
cies; there are tones that evoke all
phantom pain of per!shed passion;
there are tones that resurrect all dead
sensations of majesty and might and
glory, all expired civilizations, all for
gotten magnanimities. Well may the
influence of music seem inexplicable
to the man who idly dreams that his
| life began less than a hundred years
ago! But the mystery lightens for
whosoever learns that the substance Of
self is older than the sun. He finds
that music is necromancy; he feels
that to every ripple of melody, to every
billow of harmony, there answers
within him out of the sea Of death and
birth some eddying immeasurable Of
ancient pleasure and pain.
Pleasure and pain! They commingle
always in great music and therefore 1t
is that music can move us more pro-
foundly than the voice Of ocean or
than any other voice can do. But In
music's larger utterance 1t Is ever the
sorrow that makes the undertone, the
surf mutter Of the sea Of soul. Strange
to think how vast the sum Of Joy and
woe that must have been experienced
before the sense of music could evolve
