USE DOGS TO SOLVE CANCER
Animals to Drink Water In Which
Fish Live TO Solve Cancerous
Mysteries.

East Portland, Me.-Is cancer CON-
municable through fish to human be-
fngs?
Through the establishment of test
bureau at the United States fish
hatcheries here the government In
tends to try and settle for all time
this much mooted question Dogs are
to be used in the experiment. A half
dozen little mongrels which will be
enrolled as charter members of the
cancer squad" have just arrived, &C.
compapied by DIR. Harvey R. Gaylord,
director of the Gratwick cancer labor
atory at Buffalo, N. Y. The doctor
has achieved fame through his discov-.
cries that the laws of immunity ap-
, ply to cancer.
The dogs are to be fed on the best
and most healthful sterilized food,
have the best sanitary quarters and
have a canine physician all their own.
To appease their thirst they are only
allowed to drink of pond In which
there are fish. These fish and the
dogs, carefully tended, may thus be
made to solve another Of the great
puzzles of the medical world. That
is, If the cancerous proclivities of the
fish are transmitted through the wa
ter, then the dogs, 1t is believed, will
show 1t and prove that the danger OF
this disease is ever present for hui
man beings who drink water in which
fish live.
Prof. Charles G. Atkins, in charge
of the hatchery. says:
I'VE now have number of dogs
and expect shortly to receive more,
sent here to aid in investigating the
cause of the throat disease known az
goitre, which Is one of the numerous
forms of cancer"
That the cancerous disease affecting
both dogs and fishes is similar in ma
ture has already been established
That it is identical remains to be
demonstrated. The relation between
the two has not yet been worked out
: and that is just what the scientists
want to learn, among other things

SECRET OF MAKING PEARLS
Japanese Know of Way to Make Gems
of Finest Quality but Refrain
From Cutting Market.

New York-The existence of a &C.
cret method of making pearls, which If
disclosed would make them as plenti-,
full and as cheap as the Park Row
collar-button," was told the other day
by Prof Bashford Dean of Columbia
university to the American Fisheries
society in session here.
"In a little harbor south of Tokyo,
Japan, there has been produced sue
cessfully by a secret process pearls
that are of the finest type" said Pro-
fessor Dean.
when l was at the University of
Japan, the emperor of Japan himself
opened one of these oysters and took
there from this new pearl now exhibit,
so there is no doubt about the genuine
success of this experiment. But the
secret has even been withheld from
the emperor, otherwise the whole OF
the pearl industry would be revolu'
tionized.
''Dr. N. Nishikawa, graduate OF
the University Of Tokyo. discovered
the process and left his secret to
his father-in-law, Mikemoto, one OF
the most famous pearl raisers Of
| Japan. l surmise that the pearl IL
formed by introducing scientifically 6
piece of mother of pearl into the she'll
around which the pearl is formed, ia
king the place of the worm which ma
ture uses to form the core of thu
naturally grown pearl"

AFTER EFFECTS OF THE GRIP

1t is fortunate that the grip epidemic
this year is milder in it's action than
in previous years. This does not
mean that it is less dangerous.
The after results of the grip are
apt to be exceedingly serious. Do not
take any chances-for the general
weakness, and to allay all bronchial
irritation after. the fever has passed,
nothing equals Vinol, which is deli
cious combination of the health-giving
properties of the Gods liver, with the
grease eliminated and tonic iron add
ed.
A lady from Long Branch, N. j.,
writes: THE grip left me in nerv-
GUS, weakened, rundown condition.

am better and stronger than l have
been for years, and cheerfully recon-
mend Vinol to all who have been Ill

BARS SALE BIRDS PLUMAGE
AIgrettes Cannot Be Sold by New
York MiIIiners After July
Next by Statute.

New York-The plumage of forty
three specimens Of birds formerly
used to decorate women's hats can
not be sold by the milliners of New
York state after July l next, accord
ing to the annual report Of the Ma
tional Association of Audubon Socie-
ties.
The most important feature of a
law recently passed by the state leg
islature, the report continues, is the
prohibition of the sale of aigrettes.
New York is one of the three greatest
centers for the sale of aigrettes. the
others being Paris and London.
The aigrette is taken from the
mother bird when nesting, and costs
her life and the life Of the young
birds. The Audubon societies have
been fighting for the protection Of
these birds for many years.
The passage of the so-called plu
mage bill will prevent the use O.
their plumage as we'll as that of mos
wild birds of the country and all tn,
birds native of New York state.

There is only one way to cure deaf

this tube is inflamed you have a

and then it is entirely closed. Deaf

THE BANK OF COMMERCE

The Bank of Commerce of Arco
Idaho, was organized in 1907 with a
capital stock of $25, 600 This insti-
tuition has been favored with rapid
growth from its inception, especially
during the past few months its de-
posts having more than doubled
since the first of last September.
The officers and directors are as
follows:
j. +. Smith, president.
c. w. Bergman, vice president.
John w. Fowler, cashier.
d. W. Standrod.
Jos. Akers.
A. n. Anderson.
At the present time the Bank of
Commerce has deposits of nearly
$150,0O0. 1t has gained the conf
dence of the public and bids fair to
become one of the most important
financial institutions of this part of
Idaho. The Bank makes speciality
of real estate, loans, fire insurance,
notary work and also acts as agents
for farm and city property and all
personal business.
Much credit for the recent growth
of this bank is due to Mr.. John w.
Fowler, the cashier. He is young
man and a hustler. Previous to his
association with the Bank of Com
MERGE last September, he was con-
nected with the w. G. jenkins & Co.,

GEORGE f. FERRIS

In the village of Arco in the Lost
river valley, resides George e. Ferris
his wife and family of two daughters,
Elizabeth and Jennie, and two sons,
Arthur and George.
1t was in the days when the west
was truly wild and Wooley, that
George e. Ferris and his family
found their way into the Lost river
valley and following the old immi-
grant trail until they came to that
section of the valley now known as
old Arco, they pitched their camp,
built their cabin and for twenty seven
years made their home. And a re-
markable transformation has this
family seen in this Lost river valley
during those twenty-SeVen years, and
more particularly the last eight years.
Up until about eight years ago, Mr..
Ferris in connection with his ranch,
conducted the store at what is popu-
larly known now as old Arco' and
also was postmaster and the store a
stage station Many a thrilling mar
rative could he relate of hold-ups and
stage robberies should he desire.
But during all these years Mr.
Ferris has by no means confined him
self to the comparative quiet life of
a rancher and storekeeper, for it was
he who established the town of Hus-
ton; organized the Mammoth Min
ing company, opened the first mine
and operated the first mill there.
This enterprise gave employment to
over fifty men, and the scale of wages
averaged five dollars day. The

over ninety miles to Blackfoot which
at that time was the nearest rail-
road point. Truly those were strenu-
Gus days for the pioneer that blaZed
the trail.
However, although he still retains
his 800 acre ranch Mr. Ferris and
family reside in the new and hustling
village of Arco, which is located
about five miles from the old town.
For with the advent of the railroad
everything has changed. Until eight
ears ago the mails were the only
means of communication this section
had with the outside world. And

pal industry. With the railroad
came the telegraph and telephone,
new communities sprang up, and
farming as an industry in this beau
tiful Lost river valley has come into
its own, for the railroad has put this
fertile valley in close touch with the
best markets in the country. And
has made it profitable to till the soil.
The result is the many new irrigation
projects. and where only a few years
ago stretched endless fields of sage
brush desert, the newcomer is greet

believes that the debt that posterity
