canture Lewiston Meet in Ham
DIV Manner and Win Relay Cup
for Keeps.

The Cottonwood High School
track team covered itself with
clorv at the interscholastic track
and field meet at Lewiston last
Friday and captured the meet
with a total of 38 points while
competing with seven other
schools. Besides repeating their
performance of last year in win
ming the relay race, thereby be-
coming permanent owners of the
beautiful silver cup offered to
the winners Of this event for two
out of three times, the boys also
won points in many other events
and brought home a number of
banners and medals as rewards
for their prowess on the track.
Besides the relay race cup, they
won the fine silver cup offered to
the winning team of the meet.
1t will be necessary for them to
win the meet again next year in
order to keep this cup permanent
ly and the boys will certainly put
up hard fight next year to keep
the trophy. Besides capturing
several banners the boys won
medals in the following events:
Odell-Gold medal for first
place in low hurdles; gold medal
for first place in high hurdles
and silver medal for second place
in 50 yard DASH, His form in the
hurdles was exceptionally good.
Housh-Gold medal for first
pace in discus throw; bronze
medal for third place in hammer
throw.
Haskin-Bronze medal for third
place in 440 yard dash.
Blackburn-Silver medal for
second place in low hurdles;
bronze medal for third place in
broad jump.
Craig-Gold medal for first
place in 220 yard dash; silver
medal for second place in 100
yard dash; bronze medal for third
place in SO yard dash.
The relay team was composed
of Craig. Haskin, Odell and
H lush.
No small amount of credit for
the showing made by the team is
due to Coach Powell who spent
considerable time and energy
curing the past few months in
getting the boys in the best of
shape for the meet. That his
EFFORTS were worth while is shown
oy the results of the meet and
the glory of the victory is per-
maps as much due to the earnest
efforts of the coach as to the
courage and ability of the boys
composing the team.

Exceeding The Speed Limit.

Fear lends wings 10 the most leaden
feet-a fact which the old countryman in
this story, from the Portland Oregonian,
brought out, albeit in less poetic phrase.
Every one in eastern Oregon calls
State Senator Boweman 'Jay," and
thinks thai when il comes TO trying a
drought criminal case there is none
better. Not long ago the late candidate
for governor defended participant in a
shooting scrape at Fossil, and material
point in the case hinged upon the testi-
mony of an aged Tennesseean.
"Where were you when this shot was
fired ?" queried counsel for the defense.
81 were about ten feet behint the teller
what got shot"
"And were you there when the marshal
arrived ?"
"No, sab; want nowhere nigh the
place."
"You must have travelled pretty last,
suggested Mr.. Bowerman.
The witness projected his goatee over
the rail OF the witneSs-stand, and IN a
confidential tone of voice, said:
"Wen, Jay, I'll tell Ye. ! made JEST
three tracks between Knox's livery barn
and the co't-house."

Hardening of the Arteries.

There comes a time in the lives Of many
persons when, after period of vague
and perhaps very gradual loss Of health
and strength, the physician makes his ex-
animation and utterS the word "Arterio-
sclerosis, as expressing the condition he
finds.
The physical state covered by this
word is a hardening OF the arteries. II
may be considered phYsiologically insep-
arabic from extreme age, but many per-
sons are doomed TO hear il far too soon.
In the young il may be the result Of mus
cular overexertion, whether this takes
the form OF too much hard work or too
much hard play or it may result from
long-continued grief or fretting. An un-
happy love affair met without philosophy,
or prolonged homesickneSS has often cut
the prime out of a lifetime, and brought
about such condition OF the sufferers ar
terial system that youth and premature
age met face TO face, without any OF the
merciful gradation that nature intended.
When the disease comes upon one in
middle life, il is generally tragedy born
of foolishness, especially when the indi-
vidual is one whose circumstances and
grade of intelligence should furnish the
ability TO apply common sense 10 daily
life. Such one is often benefited by a
good plain talk, in which hope and warn
ing may be mixed in equal proportions.
The hopeful outlook should be vigor-
ouSly insisted upon. There are good
grounds for il, for if premature aHerio-
scIerosis is attacked early enough and
Strenuously enough, it can be held in
check for years. But the note OF warn
ing must also be vigorous, for the patient
must largely work out his own salvation.
Unfortunately, the sufferer is often
hard to manage. The very symptoms Of
his trouble make him irritable, intolerant
OF advice, and stubborn about his own
course. He is very ayerSe to necessary
exercise, and is absolutely certain that
he is an abStemious eater. He will aver
that he takes meat but once day, stout
ly refusing TO allow that two eggs for
breakfast and a "made dish" for lunch
con should come under that head
Such case is hopeless unless strict
regime is followed, at least until an i'm
provement is noticed. Then the gain in
comfort, the renewed ability TO sleep and
the sense ofwell-being are so appreciated
by the patient that the new way OF living
becomes established.
Each case calls for its own treatment
in many details, but quiet life, cutting
down of meat, and much time spent in
the open air will be found indispensable
for all cases.

The MOSQUITO.

Man has no memory Of an age when
the mosquito was not buzzing, biting
pest continuously in the tropics, and dur
ing the summer in the temperate regions,
and even within the arctic circle. lrrita-
ting though its bite may be, millions OF
people have vowed through lifelong hours
OF SleepleSS nights that its insiStent song
is worse.
But modern science has made il plain
that the mosquito is more than nuisance
or teeme for jokes. As conveyer OF
disease, especially malaria and feverS, it
is now recognized as serious menace 10
public health, and general and vigorous
warfare against il has been inaugurated in
the past few years. A recent bulletin is
sued by the Department OF Agriculture al
Washington has much useful information
regarding remedies and preventiveS
against mosquitoes.
Since mosquitoes breed only in stag
nant water, the treatmant OF swampS near
towns, or the treatment OF the water with
oil, has been highly effective wherever
practiSed. On a small scale every fami-
" can do similar work on IFS own prem
iSes. In cellars. back yards. drains. gut
tiers, sheds and barns there are dozens
of neglected receptacles where the pres
ence of stamping water in hot weather
means numberleSs mosquitoes TO contend
with.
To prevent the annoying and often
poisonous bites, the government mos
quito-fighters urge careful screening OF
doors and windows, the use OF bed net
ting in bad districts, the use OF tumigdntS
in houses and OF smudgeS by campers.
Oil OF citronella on the person or the pill
low will keep the pests away for hours,
and camphor, pennyroyal, peppermint,
lemon and tar are used for the same pur-
pose. As for the bites themselves, moist
soap, ammonia, alcohol, iodin, glycern
or intense heat will often relieve the ir-
ritation. OF course scratching makes
the bites worse; and prevention is far
better than treatment.

Uncle's Ball.

A young man who had been out West
to seek his fortune and hadn't found il
finally returned home. He had been
compelled TO pawn his clothes and every
thing he had, but had succeeded in res
cuing one suit from his uncle after the re-

He forgot to take the pawnticketS off the
clothes. His fond mother was helping
him unpack his trunk and came upon a

Why Pete Was PerpIeXed.

Mayor Gaynor was talking TO a New
York reporter about famous robbery
case wherein a criminal had been con-
victed by means OF the Bertillon system
of finger prints alone.
at reminds me-" said the Mayor, "of
a story about parson. This parSon had
a fine orchard, and one summer, just
when the Bertillon system first came out,
the orchard was robbed. The only clue
left was the robbers finger print on an
over-ripe peach. The parson had a pho
tographic enlargement of the finger print
made. Then, with this enlargement un-
der his arm, he accosted in the main
street the man he suspected of the theft.
"'Pete, he said, somebody robbed
my orchard last night
"Pete took his pipe from his mouth.
He gulped nervously. is that so, sir ?
he said.
"'Yes, Pete, that's so,' said the par
son, but the thief left his mark behind,
and shall easily trace him.
"'Yes, sir?' said Pete, huskily, and he
cleared his throat.
"'Yes. Do you see this, Petep And
the preacher held before the mans eyes
the huge enlargement of the finger print.
"Pete beholding the photograph, made
a gesture OF despair.

wing is the poem that eSta0liShed MS reputauS
cause OF its touch Of human tenderness and siI
2 faith:
In a very humble cot,
In a rather quiet spot,
In the sudS and in the soap
Worked a woman full OF hope;
Working. singing, all alone,
In a sort of undertone,
"With the Saviour for friend,
He will keep us to the end"
Sometimes happening along,
| had heard the semi-song,
And often used to smile,
More in sympathy than guile;
But never said word
In regard TO what | heard,
AS she sang about her friend
Who would keep her to the end.
Not in sorrow nor in glee,
Working all day long was she,
AS her children, three or four,
Played around her on the floor;
But in monotones the song,
She was humming all day long,
"With the Savior for a friend,
He will keep me to the end"
It's song | do not sing,
For | scarce believe a thing
OF the stories that are told
Of the miracles of old;
But know that her belief
Is the anodyne Of grief
And will always be friend
That will keep her to the end.
Just trifle lonesome she,
Just as poor as poor could be;
But her spirit always rose
Like the bubbles in the clothes,
And though widowed and alone,
Cheered her with the monotone,
OF a Saviour and a friend,
Who would keep her TO the end.
| have seen her rub and scrub
On the washboard in the tub,
While the baby sopped in SudS,
Rolled and tumbled in the duds,
Or was padding in the pools
With old scissors stuck in SpoolS,
She was humming Of her friend
Who would keep her to the end.
Human hopes and human creedS
Have their root in human needs;
An | would not wish to strip
From that washerwoman'S lip
Any song that she can sing,
Any hope that song can bring;
For the woman has a friend
Who will keep her to the end.
