How the Other Half Lives.

There are many interesting facts
regarding cheap food in various
portions of the earth. Berlin, III
Germany, is said to lead the civi-
lized world in the way of cheap
restaurants. There are many places
where you may secure a meal of
horse flesh, bread and coffee for
twenty-five pfennig, which is about
six cents. In the poorer parts of
the city, there are many little res
taurants where you can buy a meal
for twelve pfennig, which would be
about three cents. In some of these
cheap restaurants, there is long
table, and no chairs are to be seen,
but there are long benches. lin
spoons are chained to the table,
soup plates are sunk into the table,
and the one who wants to eat a
meal comes in and sits down in
front of one of these plates, and
lays his three cents beside it.
Usually IA woman is in the kitchen,
and in many of these places, the
kitchen is a part of the restaurant
itself. AS soon as you have laid
your money on the table, she trots
! forward with a steaming hot kettle
of thick soup, although thin soup
is sometimes served She fills your
soup plate with this hot soup, and
lays IA thick slice of black bread
beside the plate, and your dinner
is complete.
This is certainly a cheap meal.
There are many places in all our
large cities where a dime will pro
vide quite a generous dinner, some
times pot roast. and a thick slice
of bread and butter, and cup of
coffee.

Get from any prescription phar-
macist the following:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Kargon,
one ounce; Compound Syrup Sar-
saparilla, three ounces. Shake
well in IA bottle and take in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and
again at bedtime
The above is considered as the
most certain prescription ever
written TO relieve Backache, Kid
ney trouble, Weak Bladder and all
forms of Urinary difficulties. This
mixture acts promptly on the
eliminative tissues of the Kidneys,
enabling them to filter and strain
the uric acid and other waste mat
ter from the blood which causes
Rheumatism.
Some persons who suffer with
the Affections may not feel inclined
to place much confidence in this
simple mixture. yet those who have
tried it say the results are simply
surprising, the relief being effected
without the slightest injury to the
stomach or other organs.
Mix some and give it ii trial. 1t
certainly comes highly recommend
ed. 1t is the prescription of an EN-
inent authority, whose entire repu-
tation, it is said, was established
by it.
A druggist here at home, when
asked, stated that he could either
supply the ingredients or mix the
prescription for our readers, also
recommends it as harmless.

Alaska is II regular hunting par
adise, about the only one left on
this continent. In the north are
the fierce polar bears and the
clumsy walrus. In the south are
many deer and between the two
extremes are great forests, the
home of the moose and caribou.
The Alaskan moose is larger than
the eastern variety found in the
Maine woods. In fact, it is the
largest member of the deer family
now found in the world. The ex-
tinct Irish elk was larger. Brown
bears, mountain sheep and many
other varities of game of smaller
size abound. The lakes afford good
fishing, as do the rivers, and the
whole land of forests, mountain,
plain, lake and river, make most
ideal hunting region of enormous
proportions.-Ex.

A Popular Error.

In the handling of live stock do
not know of mistake SO common
among all classes of men, aside
from the veterinarian, than the one
connected with the common colo
of the horse. Scarcely without an
exception, when the horse is cramp-
ing from collie, he is thought to
have something the matter with
his kidneys. Cramps in the intes-
tines from accumulation of gases
or some irritating food causes MIN
to stretch himself with the fore and
hind feet wide apart No doubt
this gives some relief by tightening
the muscles across the abdomen.
1t is not an indication of any fault
with either the kidneys or the
bladder. 1t is physiological fact
that spasm in the bowels acts re-
felexly upon the bladder. making
this latter organ imperative for the
time being. The remedy, in almost
every case, is nitre, or some remedy
directed to relieve the bladder or
the kidneys. The correct remedy
would be to give IA purge toremove
the irritating substance from the
bowels, and anodynes to relieve the
pain. The bladder, except in cases
of long protracted collie or intiam-
nation of the bowels, will take care
of itself. Diseases Of the kidneys
are quite rare in the horse, and
when they do appear seldom come
with an acute attack. Remember,
then, if the horse is rolling on the
ground, getting up and lying down,
bloated, and stretching himself out,
the chances are a hundred to one
that it is collie, or some other dis
ease, and no fault, whatever with
the bladder, although his actions
might indicate distention of that
organ.

City's Advancement Calls for
Municipal improvements.

Along with the news of building
and municipal Improvements inaugur-
ated by the promoters with a view of
keeping abreast of the city'S progress
comes the announcement that the
street lighting system now serving the
town is to be considerably enlarged.
Three large arc lights and thirteen
inCandescent lights are to be added
this week. The arc lights will be
placed as follows: One at the cor
ner where the SteinheiSer residence
stands, one at the Boss barn corner
and the other on Main street east of
the Presbyterian church. Eight Of
the inCandeScentS will be put up along
Idaho avenue from Main street to the
depot, one at every corner. The
others will be distributed over the city
as follows One at each corner of
the cemetery on east Main street, one
near the {. A. Parsons residence,
and one each at the corners occupied
byt he |. O. O. +. hall and the
laundry.
This addition to the present street
illumination has been needed for some
time and will doubtless prove an ap-
preciated Improvement.

Pacific Telephone and Telegraph
Co. Plans Big Things.
5000 FEET OF CABLE
Extensive improvements, Costing
$4,000 Be Made in City.

c. M. Ward, manager ofthe local
office of the Pacific Telephone and
Telegraph company, announces this
week that some extensive improve
ments in the company'S lines are TO
be made soon. G. NJ. Welty, of
the engineering department of the
company, was in the city the first of
the week from Spokane and with
Mr.. Ward did some work prelimin-
ary to the beginning of the improve
mentS.
1t is the intention of the company
to install about eight thousand feet of
cable in place of the wires now used
throughout the city, The cable will
cover all the business portion of the
town and branches will run to the
depot and to the more thickly-settled
residence districts of the city. OF
course all the wires in use now will
not be eliminated but the new cable,
which will be strung on poles as
usual, will do away with large por-
ton of them.
The cost of the cable and its in
Stailation, together with other I'M
provements on the local plant con-
templated by the company, will aggre-
gate about $4,000. From this an
idea may be gained of the extent of
the Improvements, which are to
begin soon after the first of the year.

Offices of Stationmen Establish
ed Structure Modern One.
NEW LINE. is ACCEPTED
All Work Completed Facts Re-
garding the New Road.

The Northern Pacific depot at the
local station is completed and the
stationmen are now NIGEL settled in
the new building The structure
serves as a passenger and freight de-
pot combined but is so arranged that
patrons of either department may be
Accommodated properly. The waiting
room for passengers is large and
comfortable and the freight room has
been planned to secure the most con-
venience in the handling of freight
and baggage. The offices are suffi-
Gently large for all demands.
Accept the New Line.
The railroad recently completed
from Culdesac to this city was ofici-
ally accepted the last of the week by
the Northern Pacific and O. R. &N.
companies. The construction train,
which has been operating over the
new line since April, 1906, has gone
to Spokane as all construction work
along the road has been entirely COM
pleted.
The new line is ffty-hve miles in
length and the fact that nearly 3
years time has been consumed in the
construction work can be best under
stood when it is realized that there
are forty-six bridges and trestles, four
smaller bridges or crossings and thir-
teen tunnels. These bridges include
the great steel viaduCt at Lawyers can
yon, the highest on the entire North
ern Pacific system. One of the tun-
nelS is 900 feet in length. The
company has never given out definite
hgureS as to the cost of the road, but
1t is understood to have reached about
81, 900, 600. Sections of the road
IN the climb out of the Culdesac
canyon, this embracing stretches
where tunnel work was done, have
cost 5000, 600 mile.

WON THE DEBATE.
Grangeville High School Victorious in
Contest with Cottonwood Team.

Grangeville High School Victorious in
Contest with Cottonwood Team.
Last Wednesday evening at the
Christian church the local high school
debate team won decision over the
team representing the Cottonwood
high school. The question for dis
cussion was one compelling national
banks to maintain fund for the
prompt payment Of all losses to de-
postorS in inSolvent national banks.
The Cottonwood team, composed
of Jesse Robertson, Charles Simmons
and John Rookie, upheld the affirma-
tive of the question. The negative
was supported by Phineas Houts,
Mac Scoheld and Charles Horning.
Mr. Houts gave strong talk and
his voice was the best of the evening,
though he was surpassed by the other
two of his team in delivery Both
Mr. Scoheld and Mr.. Hornlng were
clear and concise in constructive argu-
ment and were mercileSS and ire
futable in rebuttal. The alternative
advanced by the home team was the
central bank plan The judges,
who rendered a two to one decision
in Grangeville's favor, were Prof. H.
A. Hallowell, of Lewiston State
Normal, Reuben Overman and Rev.
A. c. Saxton.
A large crowd was present to hear
the debate which was of an exceed
ingly high rank for such high school
affairs. Much credit is due the mem
bers of the team and the coach, Prof

TWO OLD WEAPONS.
Co. Treas. Rice Has Guns Taken from
Chinaman's Cabin.

Frank S. Rice, county treasurer
and ex-officio public administrator,
has at his Office two interesting curioS
They are couple o: old weapons, a
rife and a shotgun, which were
among the effects left by 10y Fong,
an old Chinaman who died at Flor
ence last January. Fong's cabin
caught fire and in attempting to save
its contents he was severely burned
and died soon after. The two guns
were among the articles taken from
the fire. The rife is 50 calibre
breech-loading gun and was patented
by f. Allen in 1860. 1t was made
shortly after the manufacture of
breech loading rifles began, according
to all available information. The
shotgun is short, double-barrel-
led muzzle-loading, 16-guage affair
and is covered with wire bindings,
brass patches, etc. Both weapons,
owing to their many years of i'll use
and neglect, are unfit for use and
are only valuable as souvenirs of the
early history of the west.
1t is said that the shotgun was used
by the bandits who, in 1867 or 68,
held up the pony express which was
conducted between Lewiston and
Florence at that time and secured
$40, 900, according to reports. Sew
eral local curio hunters have endeav-
ored to purchase the two relics but
Mr.. Rice will keep them until they
can be sold according to law.

Don't Want to Build Now.

AT the meeting of the |. O. O. F.
lodge last Saturday night the PROPOSE
ton of the lodge erecting a brick
building for use as an opera house
and lodge hall was up for consideration.
A majority of the members of the
order favored the abandonment of
the project for a time and no further
action will be taken on the matter
just at present 1t is thought by
some that the proposition will be
brought before the lodge again in
the near future.
