lieves the congestion which is by far
more painful than the pain felt at
the time of the injury. People should
bear in mind, and those too who are
victims, that 1t Is not the injury
which hurts at the time of the hap
pening. but the congestion. Also
that the blood must be drawn away
from the place of injury.
"A hot water application is also
good for ear ache, for this 1t is util-
lied by being poured boiling hot in
to a pitcher and holding the ear
over it in such a way as to let the
steam enter the ear. Then there Is
toothache. This is probably the
more painful of the two. Not only
does it affect the tooth, but the
whole body. Remedy: Hot water
application and soak your feet in
the same.
Then burns. In most every fire
of any size or consequence someone
is burned and If not attended to at
once, the injury may result in dis
figuring them for life. Cold water
relieves the pain, but many labor

1t is not. 1t is one of the best things
that can be used. Apply cold water

of the body no fear need be had for
the result. Hot water on the throat
and chest is also admirable for
breaking up colds and safeguarding
against pneumonia.
dirt in the eyes. All of us have
suffered from that, and l am sure
will bear me out in saying nothing
is more painful. This remedy I
learned from an engineer, who told
me it is used by most firemen and
engineers who get sand and flying
cinders in their eyes. Rub the other
eve. That is the remedy, and
have never heard of it losing out. In
doing so you start the tears, which
act in the same way as water coming
from the interior and forcing the
particle out.
Then last word. Do not 60 at
a thing in jump, for you can in
that way do as much harm as good.
For instance, in giving artificial res.
piration to one pulled from the wa

over the head, but not too fast, for
If you do the required air does not

FOR READING AND REST.
Place to Be Established for Accom-
mediation of Young Men.

A plan has been devised, which is
meeting the hearty approval Of manv
of the leading citizens and the clergy
of the city. for establishing a gospel
mission and free reading room. The
basement of the Sloan block has been
secured and will soon be fitted up
with tables. chairs and reading mat
ter. A lunch counter will be fea-
ture, and it is expected that the de-
parture will be self-sustaining from
the earnings Of the lunch department
after the mission has been estab.
lished.
1t will require about $3.50 to equip
the room, and subscription papers
are being circulated for contributions
to the fund. The mission will be
non-sectarian and will be run in the
interests OF the youth Of the city who
wish a wholesome place in which to
spend their leisure hours. Lynn
McAlden will be the manager, and
he says the place will be kept strict.

A Tribute to DR.. Hills.

tenu the lecture OF Rev. Newell
Dwight Hills at the Methodist
church next Friday evening will
have the pleasure Of listening to one
of the aDlest, most instructive speak
ers who has ever visited North Iaki-
ma. He Is as man who holds the
rapt attention OF one OF Brooklyn
most cultured and critical audiences,
an audience that demands to be edu-
Gated, elevated ani entertained, not
with platitudes and sophorifcs, but
which requires and receives from this
able instructor the newest, most
original thought in lines of phil
Osophy, art, science and literature,
while through all breathes a spirit
of gentle tolerance and human love
and sympathy which recognizes all
men as brothers.
One who has had the pleasure OF
attending DR.. Hills services as pas
tor Of the First Presbyterian church
in Evanston, ILL.,, and later in Central
Music hall. Chicago. where he was
called after the death OF Prof. Swing,
whose unfortunate experience in a
trial for heresy made this religious
center In Chicago possible, thus CIV
ing him broader field for his great
and noble work. says that he believes
every thinking man and woman in
this locality would be amply repaid
for making an unusual effort, if nee
essary. to hear this famous man, who
besides his regular pulpit work, has
given several volumes Of literary ex-
cellence to the world and found time
for numerous lectures and addresses.
More recently DR.. Hills has been
called to the pastorate of the famous
Plymouth church in Brooklyn. New
York. made memorable by such men
as Henry Ward Beecher and Lyman
Abbott. than which no higher pulpit
honor could be conferred.
DR.. Hills views life neither as
joke nor funeral procession. He
is always an optimist, seeing ever in
life Of men and nature the beautiful
awaiting fruition. and in childhood's
faces the prophecies of a future yet
to be. His message Is ever of hope,
OF beauty and Of love. In his life
work as in nature he believes in the
strong. silent forces. not the stormy
buster Of wind and earthquake. He
reveals through the earnest, gentle
power of a true manhood the reserve
force and vital energy that have
given him his great influence as
speaker and writer, just as in ma
ture we find the strongest forces are
the silent ones, or as he says of the
oak tree: "By day and by night, the
long summer through, it lifts tons
of moisture and forces 1t into the
wide spreading branches, but with
out any rattle of huge engines. With
what uproar and clang of hammers
would stones be crushed that are dis
solved noiselessly by the rootlets
and recomposed in stems and boughs!
What vast laboratory is here, every
root and leaf an expert chemist"
