HEALTH VERY POOR
RESTORED BY PE-RU-NA.
CatarTh Twenty-Five Years
Had a Bad Cough.

Miss Sophia Kittlesen, Evanston,
Illinois, u. S. A, writes:
Il have been troubled with catarrh
for nearly twenty-five years and have
tried many cures for it, but obtained
very little help.
Then my brother advised me to try
Peruna, and l did.
My health was very poor at the time
I began taking Peruna. My throat was
very sore and had bad cough.
"PeruHa has cured me. The chronic
cafarrh is gone and my health is very
much improved.
81 recommend Peruna to all my
friends who are troubled as l was"
PERUNA TABLETS: Some people pre-
fer tablets, rather than medicine in d
fluid form. Such people can obtain Peru
ma tablets, which represent the medici-
nal ingredients of Peruna. Each tablet
equals one average dose of Peruna.

School Clothing Must be Practical

Children's styles must be, Of all
things, practical, says the S~ptem-
Der New Idea Wonian's Magazine.
They must be designed to stand
hard wear and frequent laundry
ing Novelties may not be intro
duced among the styles which are
TO do good service on daily journeys
to school. Therefore it is that,
having once found out the practical
value of knickerbockcr suits and
dresses with body and skirt in one
for younger children and of plated
skirts and simple tucks and gathers
for the DIRE sses of bigger girls, keep
to them from one year to the next.
Embroidery is to be much used
for trimming this year. This is a
sensible decree OF fashion. En-
broidery is strong and washes we'll
II is much more serviceable than
lace. Effective dresses can be made
without any trimming. Whei c
there are several children TO be
provided with dresses, emhroideries
would run up the expense of the
outfits considerably.
The use of buttons is to be rec
commended. Very large bones are
used and come in all sorts OF fancy
shapes. The large pearl and bone
ones will be used on the washable
dresses. 1t is quite the custom
now for ginghams and similar
materials to be worn by children
during the winter.
Fabric coverd buttons, while not
very suitable for washing, do we'll
for the unwashable materials. They
are the most inexpensive kind, for
the wooden molds which are
bought to make them cost very lit
tie.
Finally, pipings form very
satisfactory and effective trim
ming. They provide the contrasting
color which is so desirable for chill
dren's dresses. They may be used
as the sole trimming, ibeing placed
at the edges of bias bands of the
material OF the dress. They may
be used for the introduction of an
additional color or shade. But one
must be wary Of carrying to an
extreme the idea of combining sew
eral colors; while it is done freely
on the dresses of grown ups, il is
less suitable for children's wear
With the lsttei, the last word to be
said is for the recommendation OF
simplicity.

The Idaho State Sunday School
association has opened headquarters
in room 434, Idaho Trust build
ing, from which they are planning
an active campaign for an increas-
ed number Of and more efficient
Sunday schools in the state. Rev.
MIR. Bowler of Shoshone is pres
ident of the association, E. c.
Cook treasurer and Miss Nellie
Byers will have charge Of the office
and by November it il is hoped
to have field worker as well.
The work received a great i'm
petus from the convention held in
Boise last May when Marion Law
renee and o. e. Excel were pres
ent and assisted in raising nearly
$1,000 for this part of the work.
The plan is TO cooperate as full
ly as possible with all other Sunday
school workers. The department
superintendent are to be literally
supplied with department. Literal
ture and every assistance possible
will be given them to aid in facil-
itating their work.
Plans will be laid at once by
Miss Byers for holding county con-
ventions where there are county
organizations and of organizing the
work in other counties. To this
end Miss Byers will leave about Oc-
tober on field work. Nine coun-
ties are now fully organized and
doing good work and the others
will be brought in line as soon as
possible.
Visitors IN the city who are in
terested in Sunday schools are cor
daily invite to call at the secre-
tary's office and get In touch with
the work. The organization is in
erdenominational and represents
nearly all the relig ious organiza-
tions of the state.

Planning a House

In planning the rooms of cot
tage one must eliminate some of
the features of more pretentious
houses. In such design il is
well TO omit the ordinary hall, and
place the stairs directly in the large
room, If they ascend near the front
entrance, the second story can be
reached without undue disturbance
in the living room.
The location of the chimney is
important, that il may contain the
living room fireplace, and at the
same time receive the flue from the
kitchen range. The latter has
been accomplished in this cottage
by lowering the ceiling over the
passage behind the chimney and
placing above il the tile fluc from
the range. The fireplace has come
to be really a useful fixture in moo

WORST FOES OF THE LEvezs.
Sources Of Danger to the Artificial
Banks Along the Mississippi


Banks Along the Mississippi.
People who know little ABOUT our
system OF levees. the artificial banks
built 70 confne the flood waters that
pour into the Mississippi, no doubt
imagine that the heavy rains are the
only enemy with which the leyees
have to contend, said D. j. Gerry Of
Baton Rouge La.
ON the contrary, the levees, both
during times Of flood and low water,
are subject to the incessant attacks
of living foes. the destructive work
OF which costs millions of dollars.
These foes are alligators, turtles
muskrats field rats. fresh water terra.
pin and crowish OF all these bur
rowers that prey on the levees. ex-
cayating within them goodly chambers
or tunnels. the crawfish do the most
damage, with the turtles and terrapins
a good second. The harm done by the
alligators is comparatively small
In repairing the banks crawfish
holes are often found of immense size.
II is these hollow spaces that in time
OF freshets cause a cavlag in and
break of the levees. which of course,
brings on an inundation OF all the adj
1acent country The worst part OF the
business is that no way of exterminat-
ing these pests has yet been found,
and the only thing to be done is to
try TO keep them away from the banks
as much as possible"

THE GRAND JURY REPORT.

The Graphic yesterday published in
full the grand jury report, which con-
tains some salty charges of official
irregularities and also charges Of
graft" against certain magistrates in
Pastoral. 1T also disclOses some fat
fees for the prosecuting attorney, and
in some instances where fees have
been extorted from unsuspecting per-
sons by filing "lnformations' against
selected victims and then dismissins
the cases upon the payment Of the
prosecuting attorneys fee and the 9TH
er fees in the cases. One instance
alone is cited in which $40 in attor-
news fees were "mulcted" from the
pockets of helpless victims in this
manner.
Other instances are cited of where
the taxpayers Of this county are sad
died with enormous costs in magis-
trates courts. That stop should be
put to such sharp practices for extort-
ing money from the over-burdened
taxpayers of this county, none will
deny. But the remedy-that's the
question It's difficult matter to
correct these things when the certain
officers are ali participants in the
graft. and grand juries content them
selves with moralizing instead OF re-
turning indictments.
The grand jury also recommends in
its report that steps be taken to col
lect the amounts due and unpaid by
certain county officers whose fees ex-
coed $4,000 net per annum, the amount
