from being taken up by the early set
tiers was the great expense of getting
water upon 1t, and It was generally
considered wholly impractical to con-
duct water to it. In 1902 a commit
tee consisting of members of the Uni

representatives was appointed to visit
the headwater of Snake river and look
for reservoir sites, Senator Dubois Of
Blackfoot being member Of the par

lands herein mentioned were with
drawn from entry the following year

NATURE SPARES
The stricken Rose From Grief.


What a fortunate provision OF nature
II is, that deprives the rose of mental
suffering; for how poignant would be It's
grief to discover, in the height Of its
blooming glory. that a canker fed at its
heart, and that its beauty and fragrance
were doomed forever. Nature always
spares the suffering; she is a veritable
store-house OF pleasing rewards, for
those who seek her aid. In the years
gone by falling hair and grayness have
cast a gloom over the lives OF thousands
Of young women. but thanks to the in
vestigations of scientists the true cause
Of hair destruction is now known to be
a germ or parasite that burrows into
the hair follicles. Newbro's Herplcide
absolutely destroys this germ, thus
