tributary to Pocatello 36,577645
pounds, making a grand total of 147,-
72S,024 pounds handled over the
Pocatello platform. This represents
an increase over last year of 4,533,-
796 pounds.
"In addition to this enormous ton
mage of freight actually handled over
the Pocatello platform, we handled
456, ,SS5, 56S pounds of freight in car
load lots, an increase over last year
of 23,999,51S pounds. The grand
total of freight-local and in carload
lots-received and handled at the
Pocatello station during the year,
was 6O4,611,592, an increase over last
year of 2S.53S, ,SO4."
These figures are nothing II not
staggering. To gain an idea of what
it means ito handle this tonnage, let
us assume that one man can, with an
ordinary platform truck, handle 500
pounds at one time. 1t would there
fore require a string of 1,2O9,223 men
to move this amount of freight. Such
string of truckmen. working a con-
venient distance apart, would stretch
out 1921 miles
To move this amount of freight
by wagon would require over $4,000
four-horse teams to load simultan-
eously; or 400 four-horse teams
per month, or 1877 such teams per day
for IL months.

That Hyomei VIII Cure All Forms Of
Catarrhal Diseases.

Testimonials could be printed by
the thousands, many Of them from
Pendleton and nearby towns, that
Hyomei is an absolute cure for all
catarrhal troubles, but the best proof
Of its unusual curative powers is the
guarantee that Tallman & Co. give
with every outfit that they sell.
Money back If Hyomei does not do
all that is claimed for It."
Hyomei is not a secret remedy. It's
formula is given freely to physicians
who want to know what they use
when they prescribe Hyomei. 1t is
guaranteed under the Pure Food and
Drug Law by serial No. 141S.
BY breathing Hyomel. the healing
medication goes directly to every nook
and corner OF the air passages where
the catarrhal germs may lurk, and
dlslnfects and heals. To be convinc-
ed Of this you have only to give 1t
trial, remembering that II 1t does not
cure. Tallman & CO. will refund your
money.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs

Denver, Dec. 27.-"Pip," the green
parrot known to all the travellers who
use the Union station here, deserted
the perch she has occupied for two
years and flew into the woods last
week and was discovered yesterday
in a crows colony, almost denuded
of her plumage and dying.
"Pip" had a human-like voice
which could hardly be distinguished
from that of the station man who, to
keep the crowd moving, called out
monotonously all day long, zone at
a time! Keep moving, keep moving!
One at a time! One at a time!"
The parrot had the tone of the
man, and it was difficult to distin-
guish from which throat the COM
mand came.
When they found Polly out in the
woods her head was under her wing,
evidently because of the attacks made
upon her by the crows. They had
stripped the feathers from her back.
One eye had been pecked out AS
the rescuers approached big black
bird took savage nip at bedraggled
poll, who from beneath the refuge
Of her wing, called out feebly, zone
at timel Keep moving! One at
time! One at a time" :.
Then she tumbled from the bough
to which she was clinging.

IMMENSE FREIGHT TRAFFIC.
PocatelIo Saw S6,323,47O Pounds
Pass Through Warehouses.

The immense volume OF freignt
which during 1907 came into and out
of Pocatello indicates the importance
of the Gate City as a railroad center
says the Pocatello Tribune. The vol
ume of freight consigned directly to
Pocatello, unloaded and transferred
here, shows the importance of this
city as a freight distributing center.
Station Agent Charles E. Brooks, OF
the Oregon Short Line. has furnished
the Tribune with startling data. Mr.
Brooks says:
During the past II months, from
December 1, 1906, to December l.
