Is much the same as in Mexico and

Situation DeadIOcked.
The Mexican situation is practically
deadlocked according to representa-
tions made today by Washington offic-
ials. The president is firm in his de-
termination not to recognize Provi-
sional President Huerta.
Huerta considers that the proposals
made by President Wilson are tech
nically not submitted because he has
not been recognized by the United
States. The situation, officials say, is
difficult to deal with, but is also re-
garded as critical.
President Wilson and Secretary of
State Bryan are considering another
conference with the senate foreign
aI xni+h Of
breaking the deadlock.
Huerta's Attitude.
Huerta in his reply to the United
States intimates that President Will

ward Mexico. He declares that but

Troy Was Awake.

In Troy, that lively little town that
we'll deserves the appelation long ago
accorded it, THE biggest little town
in Idaho,' everybody was awake to
the purpose of the visit by the Mos
cowites and the party was met by
representative delegation of the NOSE
prominent business men of that
place. The premium lists for the com
ing fair that were scattered broad
cast in the streets were snatched up
by the eager crowd that assembled to
welcome the visitors. Fair talk"
prevailed on every corner and it is
safe to say that it has not yet abated.
Mr.. Schloesser, editor of the Troy
News, was one of the foremost boost
ers found in that thriving little city
and assured the visitors that the com
ing fair would find liberal space in
his columns from now till the opening

Looks Like City.
Moscow looks extremely nice to
me-" said Mr.. Paine last evening.
The paving which has been installed
by the people of Moscow reflects the
enterprise and spirit of the people and
the improvement to the city's appear

glad to be able to note the progress
here 1t indeed has a metropolitan

Mr. Paine reached here last evening

came down as far as Colfax on his

accident to the speeder was compelled
to come to Moscow over another line.
Viewing the Crops.
Il. Just came out to take look at
the crops and see If we could deter
mine on the grain tonnage that we
would receive this fall said Mr..
Paine. while the crops throughout
the entire Palouse are very satisfac-

somewhat of disappointment. 1t will
not be as heavy as was predicted
month ago. With it all, however, the
country will produce a great crop

Mr.. Paine stated that the company
did not have in mind any contem-
plated improvements in its Palouse
line this year. He states that the fl
nancial situation is in such shape
that it is difficult to secure money for

ments. He stated that the company
would at all times endeavor to main
tain a high standard of service over
its present line and inaugurate any
that seemed necessary.
In talking of the possible extention
of the line to Lewiston he stated that
the road would be exended some time
but that he was not in a position to

Then again. most of your neighbors
are likely to have old fashioned Ideas.

grandmothers used TO believe in rock

ing them up and down, clothing them
toe warmly. feeding them all sorts of
things when they were very little. let
ting them taste of everything. giving
them comforters to suck to keep
them quiet, etc. and a great many of
their babies died, great many more
than die today. since doctors and
nurses have seen better ways to take
care of babies and teaching them to
! mothers.

to give all sorts of patent baby foods

Don't Take NeighbOr'S Advice
When Baby Is Sick



I wish to give a few little talks to
mothers on how to take care of their
babies. During the hot days the moth
ers' task is harder than in any other
time in the year. SO l am going to
try to tell you a few things that may
keep your baby we'll at n time when
so many babies are dying.
NY frst caution is. don't ask your
neighbors TO tell you what you had
better do with your own baby. If you
do that. I might just as well not give
these little talks, for anything I might
teach you may be undone by the guess
work of some foolish woman next
door.
Let us give YOU some reasons why
a doctor or nurse knows better than
your neiEhbor what to do for baby.
Your neighbor may have taken care of
six seven children of her own in
the little time she had left from her
regular work. That is her whole ex-
perience. The doctor and nurse have
taken care of hundreds of babies.
That is their regular work. They have
studied those babies carefully. Be-
sides that. they have studied the
perience of thousands of other doc
tors and nurses for a great many years
past.
Your neighbor may know more
about sewing or washing or cooking
or keeping house than the doctor does
That's her work. Taking care of baby's
health Is the doctors work. He has
spent years finding out the best way
20 do 1t. You wouldn't go to a baker
next door and ask him how to make
a dress. Then why do you go to a
washerwoman or cook or a seam
stress to- find out how to take care OF
your baby2
No two neighbors will tell you ex-
actly the same thing. That shows how
much their advice is worth. They
have had different babies. None of
them know your baby.
No two babies are alike. What was
good for your neighbours baby, may
be poison for yours. Doctors and
nurses have studied hundreds of babies
and know how to tell one kind of baby
from another. They can tell by study
ing your baby. which kind 1t is and
what is best to do for 1t.
One day a baby cried a great deal
and seemed very hot and uncomfort-
able. It was the mothers first baby
and she had no idea what to do. She

of Indianapolis. He is the personal at
