Eighteen years ago there came TO
Anatolia College, away up in Pontus
near the Black Sea, young fellow
with \ long name that in English
means "Son-of- seyen-brothers." Moth
ing went well~in his studies Twice
he was dropped from his class to take
q years work over again. Everybody
laughed about him, and finally he con-
eluded he had made false start in
life and went Out To seek his fortune.
Last summer one of his former class
mates received latter from Califor-
mia written in American, and signed
by the "Son-of seven-brothers." The
.sfailnren Of long ago reports that he
cultivated his violin after leaving col
lege and taught music for three years.
He went TO America and tried various
places until he reached California. He
became interested in forestry, studied
ii as profession, received appoint
ments under the State government,
and is now an inspector with all Cali
fornia as his range of duty, with
salary that would make him the envy
OF his classmates of other years.
This is, briefly, the story Of that
stupid boy who could not do the work
required in the missionary college in
Pontus of Asia minor. What then of
the bright men who are every year
getting diplomas there? The world
will hear from them yet, under the
man En- pire, when high moral STAN
dards and Christian training have had
time TO make their mark.

Garden Tools

Right in this department is
where the store shines. Such an
array of garden tools YOU never
saw before under one roof in this
part of the great Northwest.
There's more than a carload here.
II all the pitchforks and shovels
and hoes and rakes aud pruning
knives and hand plows and plant
ers and seeders were placed end to
end straight up in the air,
the man in the moon would
be in danger of having his
shins scraped or the bosom of his
pants suagged. If all the hoes
were made into one big hoe and all
the handles were made into one
immense handle, Old Jupiter would
be able to scrape the dirt of the
whole Payette valley at one sweep.
And il all the rakes were made into
one big rake and all the pitchforks
were made into one big pitchfork,
Old Mars and his hired man would
be able at one swipe to rake all the
hay in the valley together in one
pile and toss it into the manager of |
The cows in the Milky WAY. This
store bought enough garden tools
70 supply every man, woman and
,hild in the Payette valley and the
upper country with a pitchfork,
,pading fork, shovel, hoe and rake.
they are all good goods, too, but
ow in price; so low, in fact that
won't pay to work with any
,roken, twisted or worn out tool.

EASILY MIXED KIDNEY
RECIPE.
Effective Homemade Medi-
cine for Kidneys and
the Bladder.

|
What will appear very interest.
ing to many people here is the
article taken from a New York
daily paper, giving simple pre-
scription, which is said to be a
positive remedy for backache or
kidney or bladder arrangement.
| if taken before the stage of
Bright's disease:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce; Compound Paragon, one
ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla three ounces. Shake we'll in
a bottle and take in teaspoonful
doses after each meal and again at
bedtime.
A well-known druggist here at
home, when asked regarding this
prescription, stated that the in
gradients are all harmless, and
can be obtained at a small cost
from any good prescription phar-
macy, or the mixture would be
put up if asked to do so. He
further stated that while this
prescription is often prescribed in
Affections with splendid
results, he could see no reason why
it would not be splendid remedy
for kidney and urinary troubles
and backache, as it has peculiar
action upon the kidney structure,
