NINETY THREE
The Story of a Famous
Name and How It
Originated.

The foremost dermatologist in
France, DIR. Sabourand. of Paris, and
Prof Unna, Hamburg, Germany, dis
covered that a microbe caused bald
ness. To prove their theory. DIR. Sa
bourand infected a guinea pig with
some of these microbes, and in a COM
paratively short time the animal was
denuded of every hair that was on its
body.
Some eminent histologists and chem
lists were employed by the United Drug
Co, Boston Mass, to find the means
of destroying these microbes. and q
remedy that would create new
growth of hair where the hair roots
had not been entirely destroyed
After months of study, experiment
ing and research work, they discovered
what they claimed would do what was
demanded. To unquestionably prove
their theory, 100 leading druggists, To-
Gated in as many different cities, were
requested to each furnish the name of
a responsible person suffering from
falling hair and badness Each of
these 100 persons We're furnished three
bottles of the preparation with re-
quest to give it thorough trial and
report results.
Five of these persons failed to re-
port. Two declared they had been bald
for years; that their hair follicles had
long been closed and their scalps were
smooth and glossy.
Ninety three of the 100 sent in en-
thusiastic reports, stated that they
We're delighted with the hair restoring &
qualities of the preparation, and ex-
pressed sincere thanks for the wonder
full benefits brought about by its use
In commemoration of this, the new
preparation was named Rexall "93a
Hair Tonic.
We sell this remedy with the dis
tinct understanding that it is free OF
cost to the user in every case where il
does not completely remove dandruf

Ex-senator Nesnith of Oregon, gave the follow
ing version of the origin of Idaho
Derry, Polk county, Oregon, April 20, 1881:
noticed few days since editorial paragraph in
your paper making inquiry as to the origin or mean
ing of the idaho" Without protesting to be
able to communicate the exact information you de-
sire will give you the little have upon the subject
designating the present territory of Idaho as Mon
tana. When it came up for consideration in the
senate the 3rd of March, 1863 Senator Wilson of
Massachusetts moved to strike out Montana and
insert idaho" Mr.. Harding of Oregon said: Il
think the name Idaho is preferable to Montana
Idaho, in English, signifies the gem of the noun
tains | heard others suggest that it meant, in the
Indian tongue, shining mountain, all of which are
synonymous"
| do not know from which of the Indian tongues
the two words Idaho | think, however if
you will pursue the inquiry among those familiar
with the Nez Perez, Shoshone and Flathead tribes,
that you will find the origin of the two words as
have given it above

Origin of the Name "TdahO."

The name idaho" is ascribed to Colonel Craig bv
his friend, Joaquin Miller the poet of the Serras
All authorities do not agree with Mr. Miller but his
letter the subject is at least interesting if not au
thortatve reprinted from an old time issue of the
OWyhee Avalanche:
Guelph, Ontario, Canada, July 3d. 1890
Dear S1r-Ihe distinction of naming idaho" GER
ta1nly belongs to my old friend Colonel Craig (snce
deceased), of Craigs mountain Nez Perez county AS
Tor some fellow naming it in congress- bah The
name was familiar in 5000 mems mouths as they
wallowed through the snow in 81, on their way to
the Orotno m1nes-long before congress, or anyman
OF congress, had even heard of the new discovery
ne facts are these: | was riding pony express
at the time rumors reached us, through the Nez
Perce Indians, that gold to be found on the
headWaters and tributaries of the Salmon river I
had lived with the Indians; and Colonel Craig, who
had spent most of his life with them often talked
with me about possible discoveries in the mountains
to the right as rode to Orohno, and of what the
Indians said of the then unknown region.
Gallop your horse, as [ have done hundred times
against the rising sun. AS you climb the Sweet
water mountains far away to your right you will see
the name OF Idaho" written on the mountain top
at least you will see peculiar and beautiful ght
at sunrise sort of diadem two grand clusters of
mountains that bear away under the clouds fftv
miles distant l called Colonel Craig's attention to
this peculiar and beautifully arched light
That, said he SIS what the Indians call E-dah
hoe, which means the light dadem on the line
OF the mountains
That the first time I ever heard the name
Later, III oeptemDer, oil, when rode into the newly
discovered camp to establish an express office took
with me an Indian from Lapwa We followed an
Indian trail, crossed Crag's mountains and had all
the time, E-dah-hoe Mount for one objective point
On my return to Lewiston | wrote letter con-
tanning brief account of trip and of the mines
and it was published in of the Oregon papers,
which one | have now forgotten. In that account
| often mentioned E-dah-hoe, but spelt it Idaho
leaving the pronunciation unmarked by any dacriti-
cal signs So that, perhaps I may have been the
hrst to give it its present spelling, but | certainly
did not originate the word
