TOWNS WITH SILLY NAMES
Indians Protest Against Such ofienses

Dolly Lake.

Some Blackfoot Indians, with taste
and respect for nature that shames
the paleface, have protested to the Sec
rotary of the interior against the bar.
barous custom of lacking silly, mean
ingless, vulgar names TO noble natural
objects which the Indians long ago had
named with appropriateness. A melo-
dious word, with poetic significance
and very likely legend, is calmly ig-
nored in favor of Jones gulch, or
Smiths falls, or Dolly lake.
1t is even worse in the matter o.
towns. Nearly all the good names in
North America are those bestowed by
the Indians or the early French and
Spanish explorers. After them came
the Anglo-Saxon, scattering the land
scape with his own patronymics and
other tasteless and meaningless proper
nouns.
We can understand why person
with the imagination of hitching
post might prefer for beautiful nat
ural object his own name or that of q
female relative, or some foolish Grand
falls, High peak, Swift rapids, Broad
canyon; but we cannot understand why
authority should permit him to vandal
lie that way. Unless there is some ex
cellent reason to the contrary, author
ity ought to insist always upon the In

To look ones best and feel ones
best is to enjoy an inside bath each
morning to flush from the system the
previous days waste, sour fermenta-
tions and poisonous toxins before it is
absorbed into the blood. Just as coal,
when it burns, leaves behind certain
amount of incombustible material in
the form Of ashes, SO the food and
drink taken each day leave in the ali
mentary organs a certain amount Of
indigestible material, which If not
eliminated, form toxins and poisons
which are then sucked into the blood
through the very ducts which are in
tended to suck in only nourishment to
sustain the body.

healthy bloom in your cheeks, to see
your skin get clearer and clearer, you
are told to drink every morning upon
