A big lecturing doctor down

other evening that the Ameri-
can people take too many baths. :"
The water crank, the man who
showers in the morning, dips at
night, scrubs twice a week, bragS
about it all the time, is nuis-
ance and he is usually washed so
thin that there is not much good
fellowship to him Too much
water takes the perfumed veril-
ity from man in about week
A great deal of water may estab-
liSh pale and tinted daintiness in
a woman, but it is bad for man,
who is considerable of an animal
There is a mighty good doctor
up in this country, broad of back
substantial in girth. large of
neck, f1orid, healthy, hearty,
good natured, clean and alto
gether wholesome, who does not
believe in much bathing and who
never advises it. His idea is and
he maintains it logically and
strongly, that just water enough
for cleanliness and to drink is all
that any man should have. A
rough towel in the morning will
do as much good as an enervat-
ing inside and outside flooding. =

Wedding Bells at DeLsmor.

Avery pretty wedding occurred at De-
Lamar on Christmas Eve. at the home of
Mrs. G. d. Bachelor, when her youngest
daughter, Jennie, became the wife Of Mr.
Arch Morrel. The bride is one of Della
mar s most beautiful and popular young
ladies, and counts her friends by the
number of her acquaintance. The groom
has lived in DeLamar for number Of
years, and is quite well known, being
esteemed as a steady and popular young
man.
The ceremony, which was very impress
sive, was performed by Rev. Brady. at
$3.50 O'Clock. The little three-year-old
nephew of the bride, Darwin Paulding,
was ring-bearer, and was picture with
his golden curls and white attire. He
was followed by the fower-girls, three
nieces Of the bride, Ruby and Inez Bach
elor, dressed in pale blue silk, and Aida
Hurd, in pink silk, who strewed white
flowers in the pathway ofthe bride. Mrs.
Nellie Langford, acted as bridesmaid,
and was lovely in white tafteta. Mr..
Harry Bachelor, youngest brother of the
bride, officiated as best man. The bride
was beautiful in white satin messaline,
trimmed with Cluny lace. Her blonde
beauty was enhanced by the filmy bridal
veil, which was caught up with white
roses. She carried boquet Of brides
roses. The bridal party stood under a
wedding bell, completely covered with
white lilies.
The parlor was bower of Christmas
greens, holly and mistletoe, and pink and
white roses, the color scheme of the din
ing room being red. The table was fes-
tooned with smilax and decorated with
red carnations. Covers we're laid for six
teen. Needless to say, theguests enjoyed
a most delicious supper that left nothing
to be desired, as all who know the famous
culinary qualifications Of Mrs. Bachelor
can testify.
The wedding was a quiet one, only rel
atives and one or two intimate friends
being present. Mrs. Hurd, of Payette,
sister Of the bride, with her husband, and
Mr.. Harry Bachelor, of Boise, came over
to attend
That same evening Mrs. Bachelor won
a beautiful doll at rattle, and she laugh
ingly, withal rather sadly, remarked that
"while she had lost one doll she had won
another" The happy couple went at
once to housekeeping in the Forney resi-
dence and their many friends wish for
them long and happy life.

Other eyes were upon him. however. and
before he had served two years Of his
second term he was summoned by Presi-
dent Harrison to come to Washington as
solicitor general Of the United States in
the Department of Justice.
There are many of US who remember
him in that Office. He has not changed.
He was the same CHEEKY, hearty. bluff
capacity for hard work. He found hard
work ready to his hand. Two important
cases were to come on at once and upon
him was to devolve the arguing of them
before the United States Supreme Court.
The recollection is still fresh OF the SEN
sation which was caused, in the midst
of the ominous dispute with Great Brit
ain over the Berng sea fisheries, by the
British government throwing the crux Of
the dispute into the Supreme Court. Eng
as Joseph H. Choate. and the young Gin
cinnati lawyer measured lances with the
leader Of the American bar. Taft won:
Another big case he conducted in be-
ity of the Mckinley tariff act, on point
questioning the counting of a quorum
by Speaker Reed. That was case which
was to govern parliamentary proceedings
in the House from that time to the pres
ent day. Taft won.
Goes on Circuit Bench.
After three years of service in the De-
partment of Justice he was appointed
on the circuit bench as judge of the sixth
federal circuit. and went back to Ohio.
He was keeping a watchful eye on the
Supreme bench justiceship. and this was
a recognized preliminary step in that di-
rection. In the succeeding seven years
Judge Taft was destined to make his
reputation as a great interpreter Of the
law and the rights Of men under the
law He was to make decisions which
later were to be brought up against him
in appeal to popular prejudice. but In
which he was to be vindicated by the
electorate of the United States to which
the issue was to be submitted.
In this tour of public duty he was to
demonstrate his fearlessness and fairness
in deciding cases strictly on their merits
as he saw them, without catering to any
class of men. 1t was while sitting on
this bench that he rendered decisions IN
the labor cases for which he was con-
demned by branch of organized labor
in the last elections. At the same time
he made decisions upholding the rights OF
organized labor which have since been

Lifts an Ignorant People.
He saw the possibility of lifting
feeble, ignorant people into the light Of
liberty and setting them upon the path
to intelligent, efficient self-government.
That possibility reconciled him to the
continuance Of American authority over

Augusta General Hospital to B

The Augusta General hospital will
be thrown open to it's friends on
Thursday. Oct. II in observance of
Hospital day. Members OF the Hos
pital Aid will be present to receive all
gifts that may be brought. Anything
that is of use in a private home can
be utilized in the hospital, since, aside
from the large number of patients,
there is a family of some 25 people to
be provided for.
There is no home that cannot give

the fruits of garden and orchard, and
it is hoped that every merchant in the
city may send of his stock. All kinds
of groceries, dry goods, crockery, hard
ware. and in fact everything on the
shelves of our merchants can be used.
Money is always acceptable. Funds
received at this time are devoted
especially to the work of the district
nurse, which is such a blessing, not
only to the poor and suffering. but TO
anyone who needs the services of an
expert for occasional aid.
