the sweet aroma of an exalted Chris.

who shed tear.

Death of Pioneer.

At the ripe old age of seventy-three
Amos Carver, pioneer of Idaho
county, who for the past forty years
had lived on a ranch near Lucille,
passed away early Monday morning,
his death being caused by paralytic
stroke.
The deceased, whose ancestors we're
among the early colonist of New
England, was born in Maine, August
3, 1888 and at the early age twelve
left his home to see the world. He
followed the sea for number of years
and was one of the few Americans
who were guests of the King Of the
Sandwich Island during the occasion
Of a visit to the port Of Honolulu in
an early day. In 1857 he gave up
the life Of a sailor and took up mining
in the Eldorado camp Of California.
With the news of the rich strike of
gold in what is now Idaho county, he
with many others from the golden
state, packed his belonging and turned
to the new discovery. He arrived in
the Central Idaho camp in 1862 and
mined some Of the richest gravel
ever handled in the rich camps Of the
early day. For fifteen years he fol
lowed the occupation of "a miner in
the Warren district and later took up
homestead on the Salmon river
where-he has since lived devoting his
time to stock raising. TO know
Amos Carver was to like him and the
many good qualities of the man are
testified to by his numerous friends.
For some time past he has been in
failing health and the end was not
unexpected. He has relatives in the
east who have been notified of the SAD
occurrence but the probabilities art
that the remains will be laid to res,
in the Whitebird cemetery

Heap Big Medicine.

Patent medicine and religion are
working havoc with the Nez Perce
Indians. Less than fortnight ago
one Moses, a self-eonstituted
prophet, filled up on Japan oil and
pain and collie cure and after several

hunting ground.
Later his wife was committed to
the asylum, her mind having been
effected by the use of the same dope
aud last week young brave neal
Kamiah imbibed too freely of the
cure-alls and as a result is hopelessly
insane.

Dave Yates, the Winona rancher

forms us that he will plant 125 acres
of summer fallow to corn this year

exquisite dress in this color was
recently made. 1t was intended
for simple dinners. The founda-

ADVICE TO THE BRITISH

Isn't it possible that some of
the agonies of this troubled world
are due to lack of good, common
barnyard sense?
England is groaning about the
price of milk. 1t has gone up to
10 cents quart, and eight cents
a quart for milk was almost part
of the British constitution.
The largely increased demand
for condensed milk and for milk
used in chocolate manufacture is
given as the chief cause of short
age in supply and consequent
boost in price. Without pretend
ing to any genius for philosophy
or craftsmanship, one is. tempted .
to grasp a megaphone and yell
clear across the ocean to the
amazed and stupefed Britishers:
why in thunder don't you
keep more cows?"
-O-O-
It's got to be new deal or bad
ly broken China, according to the
revolutionists.

AVOID HARSH DRUGS.
Many cathartics Tend to Cause Injury
to the Bowels,

If you are subject to constipation,
you should avoid strong drugs and
cathartics.4 They only give temporary
relief and their reaction is harmful and
sometimes more annoying than cOnsti-
patton. They in no way effect cure
and their tendency is to weaken the
already weak organs with which they
come in contact.
We honestly believe that we have
the best constipation treatment ever
devised. Our faith in it is so strong
that we sell it on the positive guaTan
tee that it shall not cost the user a
cent if it does not give entire satisfac
tion and completely remedy cOnstipa-
ton. This preparation is called Rexall
Orderlies. These are prompt. soothing.
and most effective in action. They are
made of a recent chemical discovery.
Their principal ingredient Is odoress.
tasteless. and colorless. Combined with
other well-known ingredients, long es-
tablished for their usefulness in the
treatment of constipation, it forms a
tablet which is eaten just like candy.
They may be taken at any time, either
day or night, without fear of their
causing any Inconvenience whatever.
They do not grippe. purge. nor cause
nausea. They act without causing any
pain or excessive looseness of the
bowels. They are ideal for children,
weak. delicate persons, and aged peo-
pie, as well as for the most hearty
person.
They come in three size packages.
II tablets, 10 cents; SO tablets.
25 cents; so tablets, so cents. Re-
member, you can obtain them only
at our store - The Rexall Store.
