FRESHEM UP!
GIVE YOURSELF
A REAL Chew
The Juicy Sweetness Of "Am'
erican Navy" Puts More
Snap into a Man
BIG VALUE RICH CHEWING

A sweet, mellow chew of good tobac-
co is wonderfully refreshing. But the
tobacco must be in Ping form to give
you the utmost of wholesome, healthful
enjoyment.
The rich natural juices pressed into
a golden-brown plug taste so deliciously
good that it puts new snap into you.
American Navy plug is the distinc-
live chew. 1t gives you the same type
OF leaf as the best scrap" but it
gives you a0holc leaf instead Of cut
tings," and it's hard-pressed instead of
loose-packed. That means more sweet,
mellow flavor and more genuine tobac-
co satisfaction.
The leaf for American Navy is more
carefully selected and the plugs are
more carefully made than is the case
with many higher-priced tobaccos.
You actually get more than your
moneys worth of chewing enjoyment in
American Navy.
You'll know this for yourself soon
as you get started chewing American
Navy because its rare distinctive flaw
or gets right next to your tongue the
very first chew-and stays there.
Try a big cut of American Navy
and you'll wonder how you ever got
along without it. In Sc and 1Oc cuts.

Delaware 'SOPHS WIN
inter GLASS CAGE CAME

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEWARK, Del. Dec. S.-The Della
ware College Sophomores yesterday
afternoon won the first Of the inter
class basketball games from the
Freshmen by the score of 20 to 8. The
Sophs displayed much better team
work than their opponents, and their
victory was well earned. The work Of
Don" Horsey and chit" Smith, the
two forwards on the Sophomore team,
was a feature of the game. The
Freshies were very erratic, as they
were off in their passing, and also
missed a number of excellent chances
for field goals. The Sophs passed well
and held a safe lead after the first
few minutes of play. The lineup fol-

Joys of Country Life.

The world was meant for living 10.
There are certain primeval Joys in
life that we are worse than fools If we
do not share. Among them are the
sweet breath of the outdoors, the
GOODNESS OF the dewy mornings, the
warmth and the glory of the sun, the
health and GOODNESS of the breezes,
the Joy of muscles well attuned and
the JOY OF friendships with well
chosen comrades. All these simple
values belong especially to country
living, aud there are many more Of
them Of like character, like the
push o; ones muscle against some
congenial task, and the watching Of
the development of growing things.
To make a list Of country life's joys
would be far too long task, but
among the things OF chief import are
the sleeping in the outdoor air or in
rooms SO airy as to be like the out
doors and the fine health that follows
right living. Breeders Gazette.

LOST CITY OF PETRA.
May Have Been the Resting Place Of
the Children of Israel.

May Have Been the Resting Place of
the Children of Israel.
Petra, lost city and called by the
lew white travellers who have seen 1t
one OF the wonders of the world, lies
In the Arabian wilderness, shadow
of its once princely self.
Almost forgotten, 1t is believed bv
historians and archaeologists to have
been the place where the children Of
Israel fingered for twenty years when
they were on their way from Egypt to
the promised land. Although it is be-
l1eved to have contained at one time
. population of 100000, it is now one
OF the interesting places Of which ex-
piorers know comparatively little. 1t
mas no modern history, and, strange as
1t may seem. it lay absolutely forgotten
as far as Europe was concerned for
fourteen centuries.
In the centuries long passed Petra
was an important trading station for
the caravans that moved between
Persia and Egypt, and India and the
molly land and Syria. 1t is built In a
colossal bowl of pink, and its palaces,
temples and tombs are carved out of
solid rock. Certainly some of its cary
ings are 5000 years old. Its walls pre-
serve the history of architecture, for
its structures date from the days of
cave men to the magnificent buildings
of Greece and Rome.
Today Petra has about thirty in
habitants. They keep few goats, go
beyond their city into the desert to
trade with passing caravans and. alto
gether, lead miserable life. They
have made trouble for many travellers
who attempted to visit them, for
legend survives that a Pharaoh of
Egypt hid his country's treasures I'm
the Kazneh, the beautiful building
which is today known as Pharaohs
treasure house.
For many years they tried to keep
white travellers from entering the city,
because when the treasure was found
they said 1t belonged to them. But to-
day they welcome visitors. Nominally
the city Of Petra is personal possess
sion of the sultan Of Turkey, and it is
theoretically against the law to re-
move anything without his permission.
But there is nobody to stand watch
and guard the historic treasures. Every
traveller helps himself, and the natives
assist him in his search, hoping to de-
rive a few cents for their labor

THRIFT.

One of the most important confer
ences at the Congress of Education in
San francisco was that dealing with
thrift. Attention was called to the
need Of the American developing n :
dividual and community saving of
waste material and waste time, If
every citizen Of Idaho could observe
the principle that his expenses each
week, each month and each year,
should be somewhat less than his
income, presuming that he has an In
come adequate to meet the needs OF
his particular social relations and
provide some savings fund, there
would be very decided advance in
the economic situation thruout this
entire state.
II the farmer n Idaho could be
persuaded to form budget or esti-
mate Of yearly expenses for his farm
and for his household and IL he would
adopt some simple but reliable system
of accounting for farm and family
expenses, IL would assist greatly in
arriving at the proper basis of saving
and accumulatIng. In addition to
the general practice of making bud
gets and following an accounting
system, each farmer would profit
greatly IL he would adhere to a reso.
luton not to purchase any machin-
cry which was not absolutely needed
SO long as the older machinery could
be repaired and used economically 1t
was the opinion OF this congress, and
there were able authorities in attend
ance, that practice OF this sort would
change the entire financial situation
with many who are now paying pro.
hibitory Interest rates. A study and
practice OF these suggestions is rec
ommeuded by the University of Idaho
in the flrn belief that the practice OF
such principles would be OF lnestima-
