A SENSIBLE MOVE.

The citizens of Granger, at a mass
meeting, decided on today as the
time for general cleaning up of
the town, when every business man
and every resident would get busy
with the lawns aud streets. removing
all rubbish. North Yakima should
not trail behind Granger in such an
idea as this but the busy and hust-
ling little place has one on the me-
tropolis for enterprise. This plan
has been suggested by the Herald
time and time again, and it certain
ly seems to be a plan of much wis
dom There is no better advertise
ment than 20 be called "a clean
city" North Yakima has something
OF that reputation now but it would
be of great advantage to remove the
weeds and tall grasses from the gut
ters; to clean the lawns and alleys
and to make the city more presenta-
Bile in every way. This can be done
in a single day if the cooperation OF
all residents is secured.

F. A. Ouelette, president of the

is in North Yakima verifying the
statements made to the association
by the local representative, R. F.
Ayers, that North Yakima is the logi-
cal location for the home offices. At
present the offices are in Olympia,
but it is believed the state can be
handled to better advantage from
this point, as we'll as Oregon and

Mr. Oeulette is very favorably i'm

THE RUSSIAN OUTRAGE.

The entire civilized world stood
aghast when tne news was flashed
that General Stoessel had been SEN
;.nced to a death penalty. The court
recommended Communication to 10
years sentence. but either is pro-
ceeding which should make a coun.

Russia be ashamed of its place
among civilized powers. Because
Stoessel surrendered after putting
Lr a marVe lous fight, considering his
poor equipment and the quality of
his soldiers, he is generously re-
warded by his country with either
death or long sentence in a
fortress. The whole world watched
with admiration when day after day
he and his fighting men kept the
Tort against heavy odds, and it was
apparent to all that it was only a
question of time before the Russians
must surrender TO the Japanese. II
Stoessel is executed it will be be-

Mix This at Home.

The following simple homemade
mixture is said to readily relieve and
overcome any form of rheumatism
by forcing the kidneys to filter from
the blood and system all the uric
acid and poisonous waste matter. re-
lieving at once such symptoms as
backache, weak kidneys and bladder
and blood diseases.
Try 1t, as it doesn't cost much to
make, and Is said to be absolutely
harmless to the stomach.
Get the following harmless ingre-
dents from any good pharmacy:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparil-
la, three ounces. Mix by shaking
we'll in bottle, and take a teaspoon
full after each meal and again at
bedtime.
This simple mixture is said to give
prompt relief, and there are very few
cases of Rheumatism and Kidney
troubles 1t will fail to cure perma-
nently.
These are all harmless, everyday
drugs, and your druggist should keep
them in the prescription department;
IL not. have him order them from the
wholesale drug houses for you, rath-
er than fail to use this, II you are
afflicted. 1

this in turn breaks down the func-
ton of respiration and consumption
is an established disease.
The first step toward cure is to
restore the function of nutrition, and
to this end nothing in the world ex-
cells Vinol.
1t is for this reason we want every
person in North Yakima to know
about our delicious cod liver prepar-
alton, Vinol, which is far superior to
old-fashioned cod liver oil and EN-
ulsions because it is made by sci
entific, extractive and concentrating
process from fresh Gods liyers, conf
bining with peptonate of iron all the
medicinal, healing, body building ele-
ments of cod liver oil, but no oil.
In pulmonary diseases, it nourish-
es the body, increases vigor, checks
the cough and often mitigates the
disease. AS a straightforward for
old people, delicate children, weak,
run down persons, and after sickness,
Vinol is unexcelled.
We ask North Yakima people to
try Vinol on our offer to return their
money if it does not give satisfac-
ton. Fred l.. Janeck, druggist,

need to be diluted with hot water,
remove the threads, take out the

Scalloped Tomatoes.
A new and most delicious way to
scallop tomatoes is to arrange half
can of tomatoes in dish in alter
nate layers with coarsely broken
crackers, seasoning each layer with
minced onion, butter, pepper, salt
and trife of sugar. The remaining
half of the can is to be used for sour.
The truly economical housekeeper

glass jars, the fruit for which will
cost at the rate of three cents a quart
jar If bought in the height of the
season and by the bushel.
: Kentucky Potatoes.
One of the incest of ways for rem
dering old potatoes edible is to slice
a quart or more of peeled potatoes,
dropping into cold water to prevent
them from becoming discolored.
Drain and arrange in a dish in layers
with seasoning and bits of butter;
cover with milk; invert pan over
the dish and bake forty-five minutes;
take off the pan and brown.
