music. The club now has a music
committee, who have taken music as
their especial work. Last Saturday
Miss Bales of Pocatello gave lecture
for the club members and their fri
ends, on Domestic Science" Idaho

and capable an instructor in her state
academy. All feel they got much
from Miss Bales address. Miss Mich

UPTON SINCLAIR ON THE MEAT,
TRAFFIC
Physical Culture

Physical Culture
The question of meat inspection,
discussed from any standpoint, must
all come back to the question of the
millions of dollars that are at stake.
To really condemn and destroy all
the unfit meat would cost fortune
every month; and l personally feel
quite certain that it will never be
done until the time when cattle are
killed, not for profit, but for use
In slaughter houses owned by the
public, as they are at the present time
abroad. And that of course can never
be done until the public has broken
the strangle hold of the Interests"
upon our government. We were
thirteen years fighting for a pure
food law-thanks to Cannon and
Wadsworth and other faithful SER
wants of the Poison trust; and now
the law has been turned into a farce.
We have been generations fighting
for a Postal Savings bank, and now
that we are about to get it, it is
turned into device to relieve the
banks of some undesirable govern.
ment bonds. John Wanamaker, when
he was postmaster general, said that
there were four reasons why we could
not have parcels post; and he nam
ed the four express companies. We
have not yet even got to the stage
of agitation for government abattoirs
and so clearly it will be long time
before we are rid of the Condemned
Meat Industry"
| have often amused audiences by
telling them the tale of one inspec-
tors adventures with a cholera hog
he had condemned a particularly
horrible specimen, and thought that
he would get it out of the way while
the foreman's back was turned; but /
the foreman had found him out when
he was within few feet of the fer
tilizer tank; and there was the in
Spector at one end of the carcass and .
the foreman at the other-one pull
ing towards the tank and the other
towards the chilling room.

But to return to the program Mrs.
Aka Figley was first on the program
with clever sketch of Friedrich Rem
ington, who recently passed to the
great beyond, but his work will live,
and grow greater in the coming years.
The artists Paxson and Russell,
who live in Montana, and portray the
true Western types, were the sub
ject Of a general discussion led by
Mrs. Ralph Edmunds.
Mrs. Matilda Crandall followed
with short biography of the artists,
William Ladd Taylor and Eanger Irv-
ing Couse, and displaying some of
the Copley prints by these artists.
&, Question-What famous painter
was called "Slovenly Tommy was
answered by Masaccio, a Florentine
painter whose real name was Tom
maso Guidi. "Slovenly Tommy" was
a nickname given him on account of
his ungainliness and careless habits.
Responses-Art, the word can only
suggest the most beautiful thoughts
of nature and material things.
Following responses Mrs. Dymate
Jones read short biography of
John Singleton Copley, who was one
of her ancestors.
The ladies on departing were pro-
fuse in their thanks to the hostess,
who had made it possible for them
to enjoy an afternoon of educational
pleasure with some of the best artists
and their work.

RESPECT YOUR STOMACH

| Dvelop respect for your stomach.
Such policy will in every case yield
splendid dividends. Unless you treat
your stomach with respect, unless
you feed it intelligently, if not scien-
tlhcally, you cannot expect the blood
making process sto be properly COM
pleted.
In tsrength-building one must first
learn the Importance of limiting the
amount or food to what you actually
need. Many persons live to eat. BY
following a policy of that kind you
can actually increase your length of
life from ten to forty years. You
may consider this statement exagger-
ated, but if you will study the science
OF diet, and heed the plain conclus-
ions that will come as a result of
such study, you will be compelled
TO admit the accuracy of this state
ment. The body is fed by the blood,
1t is nourished from the blood. The
Dlood-making process begins in the
stomach, and when you overfeed this
important organ, and continue to
oVerfeed 1T, various poisons are abb
sofbed into the system through the
detective digestive process that there
by results One might say that near
ly all diseases begin in the stomach
and might also say that disease con-
tlnues in the stomach. 1t helps in
the process of making impure blood,
blood that contains all sorts of poi
sons. This vile stuff is sent coursing
through the body, and under such cir
cumstances some have the incompre-
hensible audacity to wonder why
they are not we'll. In many instances
hey might more reasonably wonder
why they are alive.

ROUND TABLE CLUB OF IDAHO
FALLS
FALLS

The Art afternoon given by the
Round Table club at the home of
Mrs. Dymae Jones was literary and
social success.
On entering, the parlors seemed a
perfect bower with the festoons of
smilax, entwining arches and con-
cealing electric lights, while lilies
of the valley, sweet peas and violets
in profuson lent sweet prefume and
pleasing ensemble to the beautiful
picture which greeted OR vision.
Nor would this scene have been COM
plete without the famous Copley
prints, which adorned walls, easels
and tables. Every known character,
scene or action seemed represented in
the fine collection displayed, and
among a few of the most notable
might be mentioned Copley Family
Group, Hope, Pot of Basil, Song of
Ages, View on the Seine, Summer
Day, Picture Writing, Indian Hunter
and the beautiful group of songs by
VILLAIN Ladd Taylor, Annie Laure,
Last Rose of Summer, Hark! Hark
the Lark, Sweet and Low. and Aud
Lang Syne.
In speaking of the Copley prints,
a short history might be given. The
prints are named after the early |
American artist John Singleton Cop
ley, and the history dates back to
1895 when Curtis and Cameron in
preparing their hand book of the
new Boston Public Library preceived
the opportunity of doing for art in
this country what had been done so
we'll by European houses for art in
the old world. Museums and private
owners already possessed a large
number of important works, and were
constantly acquiring more, from
American studios and from abroad
But these works were enjoyed only
by the comparatively few. who could
see the originals. No endeavor had
been made to make them available !
to the general public by reproductive :
process. With the friendly advice t
and cooperation of artists and own
ers the publication was commenced l
In the permanent and beautiful form :
Of reproduction known as "The Cop '
ley Prints" of all the good art that
might be found available in the
country.

Connecticut Farmer Tells How 70 Util.

One OF the most picturesque sights
IN New England IS the stone wall

which otherwise incumber the ground,
for the construction OF barriers neces-
sary 70 farm life used to be a leading
industry in New England before the
advent OF the barb wire fence. Even
now many farmers extend their stone
fences just to get rid Of the rocks. And
there are plenty Of rocks IN other
parts OF the country that can be used
to the same useful purpose.
Here, however, Is brave farmer,

who goes further than picking up ana
piling stones. He believes IN breaking
up powders and using the fragments

to dishearten any robust, enthusiastic
farmer from breaking them up and
clearing them away Dynamite, a

A knowledge OF rocks. however, will
prove OF great assistance before work
Of any kind with them Is undertaken.

plowed and dug out just below the
frost line. AS my wall was only to be
rebuilt this was unnecessary. for I had

Ny wall was laid with a straight
face on the road side, while Oh the
field side rough cobbles without a
straight face were set mp at a slant OF
about one foot to the four foot wall
IN no part Of the wall were the
stones Just thrown or dumped in. Ev-
cry stone was placed one az a time, no
matter how small, and So placed that It
rested firmly on Its base, with as little
tipping or looseness as possible.

a drill twelve inches long and three
quarters Of an inch in diaAeter and,
with two or three pound hammer
mounted on a twenty inch handle, drill
a hole six inches deep in the bowlder

hardness Of the stone. Then along the

was drilled. and perhaps another and

Hints On Restoring Window Garden
Flowers 70 Health.
During the winter the amateur In
gardening has much to contend with,
and not the least Of the evils IS frost
especially where an endeavor Is made
to keep more or less tender plants
through the cold. duh months In a
poorly heated greenhouse or frame
Fortunately science has come to our
aid and taught as q few things con-
cerning the effects Of frost on tender
plants. and with these principles fully
grasped we are in a position TO combat

ressfully far more frost than the same
kind of plants whose tissues are gorged
with liquid, and science has also taught
us that the greatest mischief Is caused
by rapid thawing
To grasp the above facts It may be
as well before proceeding further to
just consider briefly what really hap
pens when a plant gets frozen. It IS
now generally known that a plant ike
the human body, IS nude UP Of tiny
cells, each OF which, d course, has It's
own walls. Under ordinary conditions
and when a plant has abundance Of
moisture at its disposal these cells are
turgid with liquid Now, when liquid
becomes frozen it IS one Of the laws
Of nature that expansion takes place
and ID the case Of that III the plant
cells no exception to this law Is made
This expansion, then results III a rup-
ture Of the plant cell walls, which I'M
der ordinary conditions Of thawlng
causes the plant 70 collapse.
1t has been proved that when plant
Il thawed very slowly the plant cells
are able to absorb the moisture which
has been forced BY expansion through
the cell wallis and the rupture Ii to
great extent made good
Assuming that the plants have not
been watered more often than is abso-
mtely necessary and chat one morning
we visit the greenhouse or frames to
find that frost has reached them, we
know that # they are to be saved
thawing must be done very slowly

does not get into working order again,
and If there is any likelihood Of d
burst Of sunshine shade the structure
with thick mats or anything else that
can be quickly secured. Then procure
an abundant supply Of fee cold water
and syringe or otherwise drench the
plants with this until frost Is grad
ually removed from the tissues This
win probably mean very cold hands
and chattering teeth, but It IS either

days subsequently the plants should
