Modelling New Faces on Wounded


Some extraordinary operations to
repair faces shattered by shells are
being performed by the French sur
geons. DR.. J. Dundas Grant describes
In the Lancet a few of those that he
witnessed at Val de Grace and Bor-
deaux. In one case the bridge OF a
mans nose had been driven in, COM
pletely closing the rear nasal pas
sages. M. Morestin detached what
was left of the nose, leaving 1t as
flap attached below. He cleared out
the nasal passages and stuffed the
cavity with gauze, which he replaced
with rubber tubes after a few days.
He planted part of the cartilage of
rib in the mans forehead, and when
this had taken root he cut 1t away,
turned it down, attached 1t to the re-
mains of the nose and remodeled this.
In many cases in which a large part
of the lower jaw had been shot away,
casts were taken of both Jaws, and on
these the surgeons and the dentists
studied the best methods of repair.
They we're often able to restore at
least the ability to chew food and to
talk.

100000 OF FRUIT
IS SOLD BY AUCTION

The prevailing method Of selling
fruit and produce outside Of the auc
ton in Pittsburg is from the cars in
the railroad yard. A man needs nc
store or capital to begin the whole
sale produce business in the Smoky
City.
Buyers go from car to car, instead
Of from store to store. Merchants
come to Pittsburg from the mining
districts and load up a car with a
mixed assortment of fruit and vege.
tables.
Pittsburg sells two million dollar
worth of fruit through the auction
each year.

SWINE GROWERS
ASSOCIATION
SENDS WORDS OF ENCOURAGE
MENT TO ITS MEMBERS AND
OTHER FRIENDS OF THE I'M
PoRTANT INDUSTRY.

Rupert, Idaho, Aug. 30.-This has
been an uncertain year in the swine
growing industry. Because of un
natural conditions abroad, old prece
dents of markets do not hold. Ye1
those OF our members who have fol
lowed the game for many years be
lieye the following statements to be
true.
l. 1t is matter of history that
the man who makes money out Of
hogs is he who follows the game
conservatively and constantly.
2. When it comes to stiff competf
ton with the East and Middle West
the advantages are in favor of Idaho
3. The quality of our breeding
stock as we'll as our methods OF
care and management have nevel
been as important in Idaho as now
Just as the quality of our dairy
cattle must improve on high priced
land, so must the quality OF oul
hogs improve when the prices Of
grain go up.
4. Now is a good time to gel
rid of any inferior breeding stocl
that may be ON hand. Idaho has
some of the best and some OF tht
poorest stock in the world. Coco
breeding animals can be purchased
cheaper now than at any other time
A good pure bred boar is the only
kind that cam be ssaranteed to be
profitable. When prices are low nc
one can afford to raise and feed
poor stock.
5. In the selection of our breed
ing stock it Is we'll to remember
that the more uniform the hogs are
in breed characteristics, even II
grades, the more attractive they are
on the market A carload of hogs OF
uniform color, size and general ap-
pearance is always attractive TO
buyers. Using boar of different
breed each year is a thing to be
avoided
6. Unsettled conditions abroad
and the Panama Pacific Exposition
will make outside visitors to our
fairs numerous this fall.
In order to show the quality of
our swine to outside visitors and to

Idaho HumiIiated.

If there is possible justification
for these Idaho state officials going
before the head of railroad system
begging for free passes 1t must be
based on the plea that Idaho does not
furnish enough money to pay legiti-
mate expenses.
Economy that thus forces pub
lie officials to debase themselves )
and ask for special favors from
corporations that are in turn ask
ing favors from the state is false
economy. : The decentralization
sure to follow will cost the peo-
pie ten times more than the value
of the free passes secured.
This is humiliating. 1t will be in
tolerable when the people awake to
what it really means.--Idaho Review.

Is MEN BLAMED FOR
| STEAMER DISASTER
Strong Verdict Is Returned by
Coroner's Jury.
OWNERS AND lESStES OF BOAT HELD
Captain, Engineer and Two Federal
Inspectors Also Taken to Task
for Overlooking Steamer.
OWNERS AND lESStE OF BOAT HELD

Chicago - A coroner's jury has re-
turned verdict placing the blame for
the loss of over thousand lives by the
capsizing of the steamer Eastland in
the Chicago river Saturday on six men.
These are:
William H. Hull, general manager
of the Chicago-St. Joseph Steamship
company, owner Of the Eastland.
Captain Harry Petersen, of the
Eastland.
j. M. Erickson, engineer.
Robert Reed, Federal inspector of
steamships, who gave the Eastland IL
cense to carry $500 passengers July 2.
j. c. Eckliff, Federal inspector of
steamships.
W. X. Greenbaum, general manager
Of the Indiana Transportation COM
pany, lessee of the Eastland.
The jury recommended that these
men be held to grand jury for indict-
ment on charges of manslaughter.
The jury found the passengers were
not in any way to blame for the cap
sizing of the ship. 1t recommends
further investigation by the coroner
and other officers to determine whether
the men named and others may be
guilty of negligence or of contributing
in any way to the cause of the disaster.
The six jurors selected by Coroner
Hoffman to hold the inquest on the
victims of the Eastland catastrophe
are: DR.. W. A. Evans, formerly health
commissioner; Colonel Henry A. AL
len, consulting engineer; Harry Moir,
hotel proprietor; J. S. Keough, coffee
merchant; Eugene B. Eifeld, hotel
manager; W. F. Bode, wholesale
grocer.
"In the absence of evidence of undue
acts on the part of the passengers or
violent physical causes, such as ex-
plosions, fire or collision, the fact that
this vessel overturned is proof either
that it was improperly constructed for
the service employed, or that it was
improperly loaded, operated, main
tained, or that all of these causes
operated to bring about the serious re-
,ult. S.s
''It is our judgment that the steam
BOAT Eastland was both improperly
constructed and improperly loaded,
operated and maintained, and that the
PARTIES named are responsible.

1.-THE opportunist.

Robinson Crusoe was watching the
sea from his lonely isle. Suddenly he
jumped to his feet.
Friday" he called, not being IA
miliar with Sunday, there's some
thing floating to Shore"
Whereupon the two castaways
dragged a baby grand player piano to
land by it's ears. Crusee gazed sadly
upon his capture.
II don't know anything about music
and we have no perforated rolls" he
walled.
But Friday, with the resourcefulness
of the aborigine, tore porous plaster
from his manly bosom and soon the
lonely isle was resounding with the
noble strains of Goodbye, Girls. p

Mob Assassinates Hayden President;
U. S.. Warship Protects Foreigners

Washington, d. C. Following the
assassination of President Guillaume,
of Haiti, by mob at Port-au-Prince,
American marines were landed to pro-
tect lives and property of Americans
and other foreigners.
The mob broke into the French Iega-

had taken refuge, and shot him to
death. They then dragged his body
through the streets at the end of a
rope, finally dismembering it.
The mob was led by relatives of the
100 political prisoners who were exc
cuted the day before.
Rear Admiral Caperton advised the
Navy department that he had sent a

Murphy who had been arrested for
illegal sale of liquor. The police had
no evidence but one pint of whisky,
which they found in his house when
they searched it. In court this evi-
dence was produced, and somewhat
vivid claim of prima facie evidence
Of guilt was made by the prosecuting
attorney. !
During all this, counsel for the pris.
oner was silent. When his turn came
for the defense, he rose and said:
Patrick Murphy, stand up" And
Murphy, with a big red nose, un-
shaven face, bleared eyes and gen
eral appearance of dilapidation, rose.

lieve that Patrick Murphy. if he had
pint of whisky, would sell it?"
Murphy was acquitted.

AN EASY WAY TO GET
RID OF lJGl Y PiMPI ES

Battle your face for several minutes
with resinol soap and hot water, then
apply a little resinol ointment very
gently. Let this stay on ten minutes,
and wash off with resinol soap and
more hot water, finishing with dash
of cold water to close the pores. Do
this once or twice day, and you will
be astonished to find how quickly the
healing resinol medication soothes
and cleanses the pores, removes pins
pies and blackheads, and leaves the
complexion clear and velvety.
Resinol ointment and resinol soap
stop itching instantly and speedily
heal skin humors, sores, burns,
