Of three ladies who were window shop
ping at one of our leading department
stores on Saturday evening, in answer
to the question, Have you entered the
Capital News Booklovers' Contest?"
The lady who asked the question stated
she had entered it and was enjoying
it thoroughly. The lady who had not
entered gave as a reason that she did
not have confidence enough in her
ability to get the correct answers.
After they had talked Booklovers' Con-
test for some time the party broke up,
the lady who had entered the contest
going down the street, and the other
two remaining to discuss her and her
chances to win in the contest, declar-
ing that she was a very bright woman
and went into everything worth while
and that she would without doubt
carry off one of the prizes. Yes,
ladies, she is no doubt bright, as she
had the stamp of intelligence in her
features. and, with you, the contest
editor, who heard the conversation,
agrees that she will carry off one Of
the prizes. But 1t Is to you who did
not enter for the reasons stated that

DR.. Hartman Describes
the Phrase, Systemic Catarrh

We hear often today the term auto
.ntoxication, which refers to condi-
ton OF the bowels. The bowels being
clogged up, they ferment and become
poisoned. Tho system. attempts to
rectify the trouble by absorbing the
poison and carrying it out through the
kidneys. The result is sickness, called
auto intoxication. 1t Is exactly this
kind of thing that happens in systemic
catarrh Tire catarrhal secretions that
do not escape by the internal organs
are absorbed by the blood vessels and
carried through the system, and the
result is systemic catarrh.
The remedy I believe to be Peruna.
i believe there is no remedy in the
world that has relieved so many peo-
pie as Peruns. The disease Is not all
ways known as systemic catarrh
Sometimes it IL called dyspepsia. some
times nervous prostration. Sometimes
l. assumes the form of anemia, and
.hen again chronic malaria, also walk
ing typhoid fever
All these conditions are fully de-
gcribed by the term systemic catarrh
1t is especially prevalent during the
typhoid season, September and Octo-
Der. ! would not consider any other
remedy than Peruna in such sases as
these. Peruna is absolutely perfect
remedy for systemic catarrh.

|DEFENBACH and
JUDGE STEVENS IN
SENATORIAL RACE
Reported That There Will
Be Two More Entries,
One From North and the
Other From Southeast.

Senatorial possibilities for the short
term are bobbing into the spotlight.
Two more have made their appearance
They are Senator Byron Defenbach OF
Bonner county, recently elected state
senator from the most northern coun-
ty, and Judge James Stevens Of Black
foot. presiding jurist of the Ninth ju-
dicial district. They have not made an
nouncements to this effect, but their
friends are earnestly booming them for
the honor.
Byron Defenbach has been and still
is assessor of Bonner county. He was
prominently mentioned as Repub-
Iican gubernatorial candidate last
spring but during the Lewiston con-
vention withdrew his name from con-
sideration for that honor. Entering
the primary race for state senator he
was selected as the Republican party's
choice and was elected
Judge Stevens has been on the bench
in the southeastern district for num-
Der of years. He is a prominent law
yer Of that section and is not q
stranger to Idaho politics for at ono
time he was lieutenant governor of the
state.
Political reports surrounding not onlv
the aspirants for the short senatorial
term but the organization of both
houses are being seriously discussed.
The mention of the two new senatorial
possibilities has caused no little specn-
lation, for Defenbach Is from the north
and Judge Stevens from the southeast
bringing two new possibilities into
those respective territories
Merry Fight for House.
Organization of the lower house OF
the next legislature it is generally
conceded is going to start a merry
fight. The old-line Republican candi-
dates for speaker so far are H. VA.
Ferguson of Bannock county, Charles
S. Storey of Ada county and A. II. Con-
ncr of Bonner county, while the Pro-
gressives have brought out A. H. Over
smith of Troy and c. +. Koelsch 'of
Ada county.
The contest for president pro TEN
of the senate is also delved into. John
Hart of the southeast, Republican na-
tional committeeman, is out for this
position and is said to have a combine
with j. Frank Hunt, who has record
of Is years in the legislature, this to
carry Colonel Ferguson for sneaker OF
the house and James II. Wallis, state
pure food inspector of Idaho, for secrc-
tarN of the senate.
But the Progressives are lining ur
for a fight in the senate as we'll as il,
the house. George Fields of Moscow
and Fl. c. Baldridge of Canyon county
are being boosted by the Progressives

for the secretaryship of the senate.

IS RIGHT MAN
FOR THE PLACE

The strength being shown by Judge
Budge in his candidacy for justice OF
the supreme court must be q source
of personal qualification to him as 1t
is the sourse of fcongratulation for the
Republicans of the state that they
are SO able to select proper material
for one of the most important posi-
tions within the state. Judge Bulge
is especially fitted by reason of men-
tai training, experience and physical
strength to take place upon the
Supreme bench of the state at time
when such qualifications are most
needed in order to keep up with the
work before that tribunal which Ii

There Is a proposal to increase the
number of judges at great expense
to the tax payers of the state because
of the growing magnitude of the
work and because 1t has been felt
that some provision ought to be made
to bring about relief In this respect.
There was under serious considera-
tion by the legislature two years ago
the submission of q constitutional
amendeDt increasing the number of
Justices becaues of conditions exist
ing, but actiou was deferred. The
Taxpayers of the state do not feel at
this time that they can afford any
increased burden unless 1t should ap-
pear absolutely necessary. The
nomination and election of Judge
Bulge would insure the selection OF
man more capable OF doing hard
work and disposing of more of 1t in
a satisfactory manner, and thus to
postpone the necessary increase of
justices npon the bench than could
be accomplished in any other man

The Cause and Proven
ton Of Pear Blight.

There is probable no disease of fruit
trees 10 acknowledgements as pear
blight, which attacks pears, apples and
other fruits. Some diseases may be
more regular In their annual appear
ance, and more persistent in their at
tacks on fruit mentioned, but when 1t
does appear pear blight heads the list
OF disastrous maladies.
Pear blight, may be defined as con-
tagious bacterial disease OF the pear and
allied fruit trees. 1t attacks and rapid
ly kills the blossoms, young fruit, and
new twigs and run doyn in the living
bark to the larger limbs, and thence to
the trunk. While the bacteria them
selves rarely kill the leaves, most
only occasionally attacking the stems
and fnidribs of the youngest ones, all
of the foliage on the blighted branch
must of course, eventually die. The
leaves usually succumb in from one 70
two weeks after the branches on which
they grow is killed, but remain attach
ed, and are the most striking and prom
inent feature Of the disease. The
blight varies greatly in severity and in
the manner in which it attacks the tree.
Sometimes it attacks only the blossom
clusters or perhaps only the young tips
of the growing twigs. 1t is an easy
matter TO determine when the desease
has expended itself on any limb OF
tree. When it is still progressing, the
discolored, blighted portion blends of
gradually into the normal bark. but
