1t is a well-known fact that female
animals bring forth their young with
little or no pain to themselves. Yet
| it seems to be universal belief that
Four women must suffer when becom-
ing mothers. If one asks the reason
for this, our truly orthodox friends
say that woman still bears the curse
laid on Mother, Eve. Others Offer no
reason, while those more thoughtful
say, that civilization has caused wo-
man to deteriorates physically
/ 1: never could understand how. mil
lions could be imagined as suffering
for the supposed sin of. one. : But
know that the human race has COM
mitted errors in diet and In living.
l kney that for years women had
encased their bodies In tight corsets,
and had worn clothing that had i'm
peded proper physical development.
The more studied and practiced
natural living the more I became
convinced that much, If not all, of
the suffering attending childbirth
could be avoided by right living. AT
any rate I intended experimenting
on myself. As my experience up
holds my theory, l think it worth
giving to other wOmen.--From Ply

TWEEDY THE LATEST CANDI-
DATE FOR GOVERNOR

Lewiston, Sept. 24.-Ben r.
Tweedy, whose stormy reign during
the dry days In Lewiston will long be
remembered by residents, today an
nounced his candidacy for governor
of Idaho in letter to Chas. e. Mon
tieth. Tweedy attacks the policy Of
making political pledges and alliances
and states that he will stand for the
people who earn their bread by the
sweat of their brows. He describes
combinations for party gain.
1t is believed that Tweedy is being
brought out by opponents Of Paul
Clagstone of Bonner county, in the
northern part of the state. Clagstone
in the last campaign stood for a pro-
hibition state. Tweedy was elected
mayor Of Lewiston onsa dry platform.

VI According to reports received II at
the headquarters Of the Antf-saloon

last Wednesday asking for an cleo

whether or not the local option Law
should be made to- apply to that
county. 5n*- =, .@4.. @ All
Is The petition was filed by John
Finch, of Soldier, and the petition
contains the names Of 1887 voters,
being 100 more than required under
the law to secure the ordering Of an
election Less than half the sigma,
lures are said to be those Of women,
the majority being men. There were
1853 signatures from Soldier, 40 in
Bellevue, 100 in Arco. rs in Carey
and 80 in HALEY, the balace having
been received from smaller precincts.
A petition for an election in this
county was filed once before about

commissioners, who based their re-
fusal upon some failure to comply
with the requirements of the law in
filing such petition.

Idahoans have heard stories Of how

story on sub-irrigation is extant.
Our informant says that a man

voir on Upper Blackfoot river, found
his farm irrigating itself and some
springs appearing after the reservoir

Offers an Auto For q Name

In Detroit they are looking for a
name for their annual Water carni-
val. "A handsome new Flanders auto
mobile is to be awarded to the per-
son suggesting the best name. There
are no strings tied to this offer-a
few minutes of thought and little
originality and the auto may be
yours. The contest is open to people
everywhere. g..
The City of the Straits is ideally
situated for "a gigantic. water fete
such as is proposed. The beautiful
Detroit river, with its crystal water,
flows by on its way to Lake Erie, only
16 miles away. Lying right opposite
Detroit is her renowned fairy-land,
Belle Isle, great island park, which
is generally conceded to be the most
beautiful in all the world. Up stream,
just ten miles, is Lake St. Clair, and
further on, the Venice Of America,
Detroit's unique summer resort.
Detroit's waterfront is "a miles
in length, and across the river. Can
ada affords similar stretch of water
front, So, from the many vantage
points, hundreds of thousands can
see the magnificent river spectacle
by day and by night. The carnival
of 1912 will be held during the week

of Commerce appreciates the magni-
tude of this event and so has offered
the Flanders car as prize. The
name must be catchy" and in some
way characteristic Of Detroit. The
contest closes October 18th and all
names must be sent to the Contest

RETURNED TO ILLINOIS

Three of Illinois citizens who were
looking for homes along the Aber-

their way back to Illinois to make ar
rangements to move to Idaho, and
also to bring some friends along to

The plain bordering the river for
about 20 miles is quite level, and this
is being put under cultivation from
the American Falls Canal system.
while the gently rolling hills west OF
that have scarcely been disturbed by
anything but wild horses and other
rough range stock. The rainfall is
heavier on the hills than on the
plain or along the river, and the veg
citation has always been correspond
ingly heavier. The soil is fine and
rich and there is every reason to be.
lieve that dry farm crops will grow
more abundantly there than on the
fiat lands adjoining them and to the
southwark where very large tracts
are already yielding trainloads Of
wheat.
There are other advantages to be
secured in the low hills, and that Is
protection for the tender fruits ant
vegetables. In some of the sunny
slopes where the winds are kept of
and where protection can be increas
ed by planting trees, these things car
be grown little earlier than on the

[SKILL--SICKNESS

When you are sick 1t doesn't take
a good doctor to tell you that--most
anybody could do that much-but to
tell exactly the nature of the disease
sometimes calls for the utmost skin
of the physician. This is exactly the
way 1t is in regard to the defects OF
the eyes. About fifty per cent of the
work we do is to exchange improp-
erly fitted glasses for ones that FIT
and give satisfaction. People whom
we refitted-changed their old glasses
for correct ones-have told us what
a difference they found in benefit to
eyes and health after wearing PROP
ERLY FITTED GLASSES; and this
Is the principal reason why people
come long distances to us to have
their eyes attended. ~
Most anybody, by a few simple
tests. could tell that your cyesight
was defective and that you needed
glasses OF some kind, but to- diagnose
the EXACT trouble and fit the right
glasses calls for more than the or
binary. skill. We have made that ono

next March, as the two. years will

was voted dry. ,-+
Little activity is yet shown on the
rface in either the wet" or dry

leaders in the fight will be the same
as in 1919, when the license advo-
Gates were captained by Charles L.
Mcdonald, a prominent local attor-

behind H. e. Stookey, also an attor-
ney, chairman of the Nez Perez
County Local Option league and one
of the managers in the Anti-Saloon
organization in the nor them part OF
the state.
Mcdonald is a Democrat, and
Stookey, who was one of the promin-
ent Brady wo kers in the last guber-
Material campaign, is a Republican,
but there seems little likelihood OF
the contest being waged along party

BAG LIMIT MEANS EXACTLY "a

Assistant Attorney General Hands
. Down Interpretation Of Game Law
and Settles Mooted Question.

1 That the stete game and fish laws
of Idaho absolutely prohibits the kill
ing of more than "a birds of any
variety in one day Is the opinion of
j. H. Peterson, of Boise, assistant at
torney general, The law reads. 1T
shall be unlawful for any person to
kill a bag of more than "a birds In
any one day, or to have In his pos
session more than "a birds of any
kind at any one time" Heretofore
many hunters have labored under the
idea that they might kill the bag
limit of ducks (24) and then turn
loose and kill the bag limit of geese
ff4e and top things of with a bag
limit Of "a snipe and "a plover.
~ CharlestG. sumner, formerly editor
Of the Idaho Falls Post, now deputy
game warden in Bonneville county,
recently took the matter up with the
attorney general S Office, and received
Ian opinion from Mr.. Peterson, as fol
lows:
fN2tsWe are quite clear that the le$is-
slaturs intended to limit the kill TO
"a birds, and we are unable to see
how language could be. made palmer.
The section above quoted is a general
section which followss the prosisfbn
stipulating the bag limit of the vari-
Gus kinds of game birds, and hence
