Stops Heat Rays.

An interesting chemical paint which
has the property of intercepting the
heat rays of the sun, has recently
been put on the market by German
concern. 1t may be applied to tin,
corrugated iron, slate or glass, indeed,
any material used in the roofing Of
buildings, and by it's peculiar quality
leaves the room beneath the roof COM
paratively cool. 1t is stated that the
temperature of workrooms may be re-
duced from Is to 20 degrees Fahren-
heit, according to the surface which
can be covered, and the added eff
cheney of the workmen thus promoted
is a direct and measurable gain. The
paint is light blue in color, SO that. il
applied to glass. it does not appre-
ciably influence the light. Its COM
ponents are at present trade secret,
but the fact that many large electric
and manufacturing companies in Ger
many are regular users is cited as evil
dence that it is practical.

MEDICINAL TREES.
A Dozen Varieties In This Country
That Need Attention.

There are about Il dozen trees grow
ing in the United States which are ell
tirely or partly for medicines. On ac-
count of the enormous quantities re-
quired it is Il forcgone conclusion that
in the not far distant future trees will
have to be planted to meet the demand
that is fast growing, or else we shall
suffer from the lack of necessary drugs.
The presence of hydrocyanic acid in
the thin inner bark of the wild cherry
and its tonic and sedative properties
make the tree valuable. 1t is gathered
in the fall and fresh supply is re-
quired each year, as it loses strength
If kept too long.
Witch hazel plays a prominent part
in the medicine chest of every house.
hold today and represents in its manu-
facture many thousands of dollars in
invested capital. The Indian knew Of
its healing properties long before the
white man came.
The New England farmers find the
witch hazel crop one of much value
and a regular source of income. The
brush Is taken to the local distillery,
where the essential properties are e.
tracted. While it is usually classified
as shrub, it has been known to grow
TO the height of twenty-five feet. 1t
also has the popularity of blooming
very late in the fall.
The bark Of the slippery elm is high
ly priced for the relief of colds and to
allay inflammatiOns. This tree grows
to the height of from forty to seventy
feet. with trunk two and One-half
feet thick. The outer bark is shaved
off and the inner one removed and
dried under pressure in order to keep
it fat. The dried bark is remarkable
for its small proportion of weight to
bulk
The white pine. which plays such an
important part in building industries,
is conspicuous among trees possessing
medicinal properties.
These four are among the best
known and most widely used of ma
lures remedies growing wild in the
woods. There are others of various
kinds and degrees of usefulness. The
tamarack and the aspen, both Of them
esteemed as tOnics; the white willow,
a tonic, febrifuge and sometimes
used for rheumatism; the butternut,
whose bark serves as tonic and a
mild cathartic; sweet birch, best known
as the principal ingredient in birch
beer; the white oak. with its astrin-
gent bark, and. perhaps as popular as
any bark that grows. the sassafras.-

Old Registration system.

The papyri of the Roman period have
conclusively proved that registration
of land already existed in a highly
elaborate form, and that 1t was insti-
tuted not only in the interests of the
state, but also-some think even pri-
marily-in the interests of private in
dividuals. That point comes out clear
ly in an important edict of a first-cen-
fury project, who ordains that con-
tracts affecting real property were not
to be drawn up without due authorize
tion from the keepers of the public
archives. These officials had to keep
the registers up to date. entering in
them all mortgages and other charges.
as well as changes of ownership. and
they were thus enabled to protect an
intending purchaser from oversights
and frauds.-New York Press.

The First Fires.

Speaking of wonderful inventions, the

tOric ancestors doubtless were famil-

ever get the idea that they could imi-

two sticks against each other? 1t has
been observed in recent years that in

In the history of motion picture art
Monday evening, June LIST, 1914, will
always have an outstanding appeal.
On that evening the Knickerbocker
theatre, New York's most distinctive
play house. with its world wide repu-
tation for its high class theatrical pro-
auctions offered "Cabiria." a motion
picture play as far above the usual
feature film as Ben Hur is above the
ordinary stage production. "Cabiria'
shows In only the best theatres In the
large cities OF the United States chief
ly because 1t is an expensive film and
commands expensive patronage.
The Oliver brothers have procured
the films for"Cabiria" and will show
them Saturday evening, May 22nd, at
the Irene. Nothing so marvellous In
beauty, poetic sweep and finished art
has been seen on the screen as this
spectacle drama of the struggle be-
tween Rome and Carthage. The thrill
of seeing Mt Etna erupting while
thousands flee along Its base, the seige
OF Carthage. Hannibal crossing the
Alps. children offered as sacrifices to
the fire of the God Moloch. and a Ro-
man fleet burning. are scenes that
make "Cabiria" a most remarkable
film. "Cabiria" revives history and
depicts methods OF warfare of the an
clients that arc maryels OF accuracy.
1t is an epic work conceived with a
moving picture screen as the page on
which a. poet writes his drama. Any
person that misses "Cabiria" ia miss
ing a dramatic production rnriyaled
in the history of motion picture plays.

This same summer. 1881, the Oregon
Short Line was built and with Mr.. and

he had planted nearly every kind of
vegetable grown in Utah and had fine
success with everything except alfalfa.
This was almost given up as a failure
for several years, although it was later
proved that although IT would not do
land that had been previously cultivat-
ed.
Mr.. Medley raised loads OF water
melons from a sandy patch and found
a ready market for them. He went
back home with a good report and the
following spring a number of friends
returned with him and built homes.

AMERICAN FALLS WINS.

Judy" Lichtleider's spear Of a Tex
the fourth inning with a mar on third
and two out was the feature of the OPP
ening game OF the B. b. b. league.
Sunday on Franklin field, American
Falls winning, z to 8. Judy" was at
home with the big stick also and had
the Athletic outfield doing the hun
dered every time he came to bat. Reed,
playing short for the locals, started
for a short fly In the fourth, totally
unaware of impending disaster and for
a second 1t looked as II Judy" was
going to be t~orpedoed amid ships. But
nothing doing, Judy blew his horn,
zigzagged a little and in a thice had
the little fly in his lunch %grabbers and
was on his way to the bench a very
tired baby. Judy never hits for more
than two sacks for its too far to run,
when a fellow eats but one meal a day
and has to support two hundred
pounds Of averdupois.
The Athletics were weaker in the
field than had been anticipated but hit
the ball to every corner of the lot. And
there was blue smoke around every
hit. Oliver kept the hits well scat
tered and with good support had no
trouble In winning. Mcconnell at third
for the athletics was the target of
abuse for both teams. The n re-
deeming feature of his play was that
he was game. He Invariably got in
front of everything and toward the
latter part of the game was pretty
badly battered especially about the
shins. Line drives we're all aimed in
his direction and his team mates
jumped him for every offense on the
score book. Mcconnell figured that
some one had to be the goat so took
the discouraging remarks good natur-
eddy.
Several new players appeared in
local uniforms and all played good
ball. OF the new men, Clark, who sub
stituted for M. Lichtleider at first base
In the fifth inning, performed espec-
tally well. Clark from Dayton,
Washington, where he played ball for
several years. He is a good sticker
and handles himself we'll in the field.
Paul Evans grabbed everything around
third and will probably stay there for
the season. Oliver and Carmack
pitched equally well. Oliver had the
best support in the pinches and in all
left ten men on bases. Carmack pitch
ed well in the pinches several times
leaving the bases with two or three on.
American Falls goes to Pocatello next
Sunday for a game with the Pocatello
Indians. Their strength is not known
but they will probably put up a better
game than the Athletics. The score
of the game is as follows:
