LATTER YOU ARE FORTY

Forty is the age of greatest effort with
 most people. Vitality is used up at the
 most rapid pace. The struggle to secure
 8 competence for old age produces nerve
 strain, the failure to succeed causes
 worry, nervous breakdown, neurasthenia. Middle-aged people find that they can-
 not. run as fast, nor are they as agile as
 in youth. The internal organs also feel
 the effect of age. The digestion resents
 things that it accepted before, the heart
 palpitates on slight exertion, the muscles of the back ache after a days work. Your blood is thinner and not so bright red as formerly.
 When these things occur, whether you are fourteen or forty, you need tonic. 1 Dr. Williams Pink Pills suit most peo- pless need because they are non alcoholic
 and they really build up the blood and strengthen the nerves. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are useful for growing children and for men and women whose nervous energy has been overdrawn. They are certainly worthy of trial in every case of weak nerves and thin blood.
 Your druggist sells Dr. Williams Pink Pills or they will be sent by mail, post 1pai1, on receipt of price, 50 cents per |box, six boxes $2.5O by the Dr. Williams

Although ne too, admitted that the two cars were hitting thirty-dve miles an hour he de- nied that there was any danger to teams or people as there was a clear road ahead He said he stopped just east of Elm street.
 Small Boys Arrested.
 Two small boys, Stanley Kowalski and Teofil Guida, were in chambers charged with the theft of a copper boiler Stanley's father had been summoned tc appear but did not snow up, so the cases were continued until tomorrow when the boys father wilt be compelled to attend. These two boys are two of those who were ar- rested last summer by Officer Fred Wagner near White Oak for stripping copper from abandoned trolley cars. At that time the officer had to chase them down the tracks and could not catch them until he had fired shot into the ground to scare them. At the time Officer Wagner had consider able fun with one of the youngsters He said: "Whew! sonny, that was a close shot. Did you feel it whiz past your head?"
 The boy turned pale and articulat- ing as best his chattering teeth would permit, told the officer that he not only heard the bullet whiz past his head but saw 1t as well, when in real ity it was buried in the ground at the officers feet tho moment it was dis charged.

ALFRED OWENS WINS HIS CASE

Alfred Givens, who was charged
with making false report of the
condition of the bank, and who was
convicted by jury, appealed his
case to the supreme court and won.
Following are the closing paragraphs
of the courts opinion:
From what has been said it fol-
lows that we have reached the con-
clusion that there is not sufficient
competent evidence in the record to
sustain the verdict and judgment of
the trial court; that the court erred
in refusing to admit testimony of APP
pellant in explanation of his acts
and conversations had with the state
bank commissioner; that the court
erred in permitting the prosecuting
attorney in his argument to accuse
appellant of crime with which he
was not charged in the information;
and that the court erred in admit
ting evidence over the objection of
appellant of the business transactions
between appellant and the Nampa &
Meridian Irrigation district, which in
no way proved or tended to prove
the charge contained in the informa-
ton. and which could serve no pur-
pose other than to prejudice the
minds of the jury against appellant.
For these and numerous other err
rors occurring in the trial of this case,
which we will not discuss here, we
have concluded that the trial court
should BE- directed to set aside the
judgment of conviction and grant ap-
pellant new trial, and it is SO
ordered"
