WOOIqrOwers at Boise.

In his annual address to the Wool
Growers Convention which opened
at Boise Monday, President Fred
w. Gooding, among many other
interesting things, said:
In the past year the number of
sheep in Idaho has been reduced at
least $40, 600 head: some will lay
this decrease to the forest reserves,
and some to the high prices. 1t is
my opinion that both have had
something to do with it. After
! carefully studying the forest reserve
question, | ievc ii is a mistake
on the part of the government to
reduce the number of stock that
shall be allowed on these reserves.
Instead of decreasing their numbers,
it would seem TO me a wise one to
try to increase them if possible.
The federal government is today
spending several millions of dol
lars building dams and bitches in
this state, thereby making homes
for thousands of people who will
soon be producers of farm products
many of these products must have
a market within our borders.
Therefore we should try and in
crease the number of sheep, cattle
and other live stock in the state tc
consume the surplus of these newly
made farms.
''At the last session of congress,
bill was introduced by Mr.. Lacey
for the purpose of leasing all the
public grazing lands in the western
states and territories, limiting eacf
individual to 5000 acres of land
Should a bill of this kind pass con
/. gress and become law, then TIN
be annihilated.
IF such a bill is to be passed
we should try TO have something t
say as to what it should be.
''The shortage of cars this yea
has been worse than ever before
We have had promises from tn
railroad companies from year [
year for better service in thi
is line, but promises seem to be a
we get.
THE wool question is a matte
of great Importance to us. Th
q time has come when a concerted az
n ton on our part is necessary. TIL
: wool buyers of the east are gettin
N closer together than ever before
a From the best authority l can get
al less than a dozen men are handlin
E. at least IS per cent Of all the WOO
+ of the United States, and it lool
as to me at the present time as thoug
these men are debating the pric
of of woods and unless the grower
~ from all over this great west get tt
or gcther. the marketing of OF
al woods will be in the hands of Z
r big trust as is possible to mai

GIRL A MUSICAL GENIUS.
Family Fiddled Into Prosperity as Re-
suit of Her Ability.

New York.-A titled Italian family,
with more pride in its pedigree than
gold in its purse, has been fiddled into
America by the musical genius of the
youngest daughter, and will arrive in
New York soon. The girl who has
been able to accomplish this is just
past her eighteenth birthday. She Is
the violinist in the orchestra in a
restaurant here and her remarkable
genius has attracted such attention
that she will appear in musical re-
cital in Carnegie hall.
La Marchesina Pallavacini is one or
the five daughters of Marchese Gus
tavo Pallavacini, of Italy, for 30 years
director in the telegraph service, and
now, at 70, retired on pension OF
$40 month, on which he is unable
to support his large family in the
style and comfort to which he believes
they are entitled.

earned enough with her violin TO
bring them to this country and sup
port them comfortably, inherits the
title of Marchesina, with her other
sisters. and when she was little more
than eight years old she declared her
intention Of studying music. Through
her fathers influence, she was able
to get instruction from Prof Batti,
of Bologna He recognized the child's
ability, and took more than usual
pains to advance her. BY the time
she had reached her tenth year her
performances on the violin attracted
the attention of the musical world in
her native city.
At the age of IL the little Mar
chesina made her first appearance in
a concert before the royal family.
The director was Saverio Nurrissino,
general director of the Conservatory
of Music and musician in chief to the
king and queen. He recognized the
girls talents and gave her a promi-
nent part in the concert. Other art
lists had been applauded generously,
but when the dark-eyed daughter Of
the old Marchese began to sweep the
bow over the strings the audience
was amazed.
The phrasing and the technique of
the child were beautiful and dainty,
and after the first number Queen
Margherlta, who was an interested
listener, sent for the director and told
him to send the girl to the royal box.
She obeyed shyly, not knowing wheth-
er she was to receive praise or cen
sure.
The queen received her kindly,
and talked with her for an hour. The
next day a messenger brought to the
pallayacini house a beautiful violin
from Queen Margherita. and with it
a note directing the little girl to go
at once to the conservatory and COM
plete her musical education. The
payment for the tuition was made by
her royal patron.
At the age of Is La Marchesina
was one of the musical wonders of
the institution. She returned to her
old tutor, and then took part in con-
certs in Rome and Milan, but the
monetary returns were small, and
two years ago she and her sister,
Clotilde. emigrated to America They
gave one concert in Mendelssohn hall,
the sister playing the piano accom-
paniment, but as neither girl pos
sessed any business sense their abil-
ity was not brought prominently to
the front until La Marchesina was
heard here by a critic in the restau-
rant.

YOU OWE 1T TO- YOURSELF
and those around you to keep yourself
as we'll as possible. If you knew how
simple il is TO become absolutely well
we feel sure you would not hesitate to
accept the relief so easy to get. The
Van BysterveId Medicine Co, Ltd,
are curing hundreds of people every
week, and the reason why they are so
successful Is b cause their method is
the one positively sure way of dag
nosing disease. A. w. Van Byster-
veld, their chemist has spent many
years of life studying the various on
ditions o. the h man urine and by his
wonderful methods can tell at a
glance The exact trouble and what Is
causing 1t.
You know that it is impossible to
get into any of the insurance com
panles big or little without first hay
ing the urine tested and if you refuse
to allow this you know that your APP
plcation is at once rejected There
must DE some reason for this. 1t Is
simply because the insurance com pa
mics realize that many diseases show
themselves in the urine that by ordi-
nary diagnosis are not seen. The Van
Bysterveld Medicine Co., Ltd, go
still further into the science of
Uurinalysis than do the Insurance
companies and their chemist through
his wonderful studies make no mis-
takes, but tells the patient without
their telling one symptom exactly
what the trouble is. Many of our
patients say that they are told their
troubles and all symptoms better than
they could have told themselves.
Another good feature in this method
is that the patient does not have to
come personally but can send the
urine and receive just the same care
ful and complete attention as though
they called in person
The Van Bysterveld Medicine Co,
Ltd will be in Greenville, Friday,
May %. at 3lS LAFAYETTE ST. where
for the small sum of 81 90 you will re
ceive careful analysis of your urine
your trouble will be properly dag
nosed and medicine furnished to last
