Give Us a Boost

The Editor of the Gilmore County
Republican, Dear Sir:
In view of the present business
depression, it seems proper that ev-
cry stone should be turned, and all
means resorted to in order to induce
the sweet bird of prosperity to brood
over our beautiful city.
The writer has heard and read that
the Saloon is a wonderful bringer
OF business presently. That it is the
one nostrum for all business ills.
Let us see if some of the nice,
benevolent gentlemn who operate
these wonderful panaceas wont start
up, say dozen more, just to give
us the needed boost.
Now is the time to prove their
wonderful efficacy in bringing fortune
to our doors.
Yours truly,
An Interested Resident.

Attack Like Tigers.

In fighting to keep the blood pure
the white corpuscles attack disease
germs like tigers. But often germs
multiply SO fast the little fighters
are overcome. Then see pimples,
boils, eczema, salt-rheum and sores
multiply and strength and appetite
fail. This condition demands Elec-
trio Bitters to regulate stomach, liv-
er and kidneys and to expel poisons
from the blood. "They are the bes.
blod purifier" writes C. T. Budahn,
of Tracy, California. II have ever
found" They make rich, red blood
srtong nerves and build up your heal
tn. Try them. SOC at r. w. Smith

High-class Poultry At The Four
State Fair

Chicken fanciers who attend the
-Four State Fair at Ogden this Fal
will be afforded an exceptional op.
portunity for studying the fine points
of some of the worlds fanciest poul
try. Attracted by magnificent prizes
which the management has offered
to exhibitors, the most famous chick
en- men in America have forwarded
their applications for space In the ex-
hibition halls.
More money will be offered in pri-
yes at the poultry show this year
than in any similar exhibition In the
Inter-Mountain country and the fact
cannot but result successfully.
w. w. Browning, probably the best
Judge of poultry in the country,
states last year that the Four State
Fairs poultry exhibit was, as whole
the highest class of any he has ever
judged.
ms year special care Will be used
TO assure nothing but pure bred birds.
These will include Kellarstrausse
White Orpingtons, Rhode Island Reds.
White and Brown Leghorns and other
famous breeds originated and perpet-
uated by experts who have made
chicken raising their life study. Ma
ny OF these prize birds will be offer
ed for sale, thus affording local fan
ciers of this and adjoining states an
opportunity to improve their flocks
at prices which will be reasonable
when compared with the rates chafg-
ed in catalogues sent out from the
big eastern poultry yards.

Registered Dairy Cattle Show And
Sale

One OF the new features that will
be added to the Four State Fair an
international Sheep Show OF 1911, is
an exhibition and auction sale of reg
istered dairy cattle. A great many
of these cattle will be shipped in by
Eastern breeders. There will be Jer-
seys, Holsteins, Guernseys, Attorneys
and all other dairy breeds. The Four
State Fair will be assisted in this
great movement to improve the dairy
flocks of the InterMountain country
by the State Fair, the State Agricul-
tural College and probably the Inter
Mountain Fair held at Boise, Idaho
In states where dairy cattle have
been improved, their products are
one of the greatest sources of reve-
nue.. In all OF the Inter-Mountain
country there Is only one place
where the value of registered dairy
stock has been demonstrated. This
Is at Richmond, Utah. Some years
ago the Utah Condensed Milk Com
pany was organized and, on account
Of the small quantity of the milk and
its low percent OF butter fat, the
factory was about to be closed. The
management brought this matter
which was very serious, to the at
tention of the directors of the com
pany and advised them to import
registered dairy cattle and sell to
the farmers ON easy terms. This,
the directors did, with the result
that the factory has been running
full time ever since. The farmers
found dairying very profitable and
the cows soon paid for themselves.
The Four State Fair attempts to
stimulate interest In these lines, with
q view of adding to the revenue of
the farmers of the Inter-Mountain
states many millions of dollars an
nually.

Leather bottles, or blackjacks, were
common in Europe two centuries ago.
The bottles were often made Of one
skin doubled up and closely stitched
together. leaving an aperture for the
neck. The thick piece between was
inserted for the slip. 1t was meant to
be slung ut the back, leather thong
passed through two loops placed on
either side Of the neck. and 1t was suf-
ficiently fiat at the base to stand when
put down. The stopper was made OF
wood. horn or old leather. A good
deal Of care was required in the prep
aration Of the leather, which had to be
oiled and worked with hammers to
make it supple and then washed with

tirely removed. leaving the leather

Rheumatism
A Big Joke

It's SO easy to get entirely rid of
Rheumatism or govt since the discov-
cry of RHEUMA that people who
continue to suffer are surely playing
a painful joke on themselves.
It's such sure thing that RHEU-
MA will cure Rheumatism that Leo H.
Fihe will refund your money If it
doesn't. This is the way it acts on ev-
erybody:
Fort Myers, Flat was so crippled
with rheumatism that l could scarce
ly walk. l took one bottle of RHEU-
MA and was so greatly benefited

ter taking them-three months ago

RHEUMA is a wonder-worker. One
hour after the first dose it begins to
act on kidneys. liver, bowels and blood.
and within a few hours the poisonous
uric acid has begun to pass from the
system through the natural channels.

Sernents and Music.

Barnard concludes from his person.

says the Scientific American. that the
serpent's traditional love for music
is pure fable and that the only eff
feet OF music is to arouse the reptiles
curiosity, which is excited by any loud
and acute sound. The cobra protrudes
its head from its burrow alike on hear
ing the snake charmer's fiute. the rat
Ting of a chain and the sounds made
by beating the ground with switch.
1t appears to perceive only sounds OF
high pitch. for it pays no attention to
the low notes Of the flute or the beat
ing Of the drum. Barnard also con-
firmed. in Ceylon. the results Of OBJ.
servations made in the London zoolog-
zeal garden on the supposed power Of
fascination exerted by serpents upon
birds. and he concludes that this pow.

A Hair Trigger Constitution.

Some one has said that animals ha, e
hair trigger constitution. says OrisoD
SWEET Marden in Success Magazine.
They so OF on the slightest provoca-
ton, because they act from impulse.
They do not know how to control
themselves. The animal instinct dom
mates.
Self control is the first condition OF
all achievement. 1t IS said that the
first sign OF insanity is the loss of self
control. When a person is no longer
the master of his own acts he is not
only in danger. but any degree of
achievement is impossible to him.
Every thought tends to result in an
act, SO that thought always leads. The
mental attitude at any moment is the
pattern which the life processes
weave. The lives Of many OF US are
grotesQue crazy quilts.

Water and Electricity,

Since the general Introduction Of
electricity into the cities It has been
known that 1t was possible to secure
q very considerable shock through a
stream Of water, and nremen In all
large cities are on the lookout for this.
Wires which look as IL they might con-
duct heavy currents are cut before a
stream Of water Is thrown In their di-
rection. Recently In the construction
Of an electric railway in South Africa
it was noticed that column of steam
from q locomotive could be the means
Of conveying the current. and several
workmen were shocked in this man
ner.

The BUILDING Of Homee,


Dwelling houses may be constructed
Of anything from paper to concrete.
When built Of paper they consist Of
ground plans, front elevations and

something more substantial they do
not resemble in any way the front ele-

in these particulars. The mortgage.
however, always comes up to expecta-
