compound fractures, some with penetrat-
ing wounds of the abdomen and chest.
They made little or no complaint on
being picked up, placed in ambulances,
and transported.
Thus these men, goaded by shot and
shell and the ever-advancing army; for
nine days without adequate sleep or food;
in constant fear Of capture, and finally
wounded thus these men, more dead than
alive, came to the hospital: and thus they
slept on while their wounds were dressed.
After deep sleep for two or three days,
during which they wanted neither food
nor drink, they began to be conscious of
their surroundings: they asked questions;
they experienced pain; they had discom-
forts and wants. They had returned from
the abysmal oblivion of sleep.
That these men had conquered the
overwhelming impulse to sleep sufficiently
to continue marching and fighting during
that nine days retreat testifies to the
dominating power of battle. That SOL
dier falls asleep during the dressing of
severe wounds tells trenchant story of
the intensity of the stimulus that kept

Their first and only litter consisted of

When They Feel No Pain

THE most striking phenomenon ex-
hibited by soldiers is the absence of
pain under the following conditions:
(a) In the midst of furious charge the
soldier feels no pain if wounded; and sore
and bleeding feet are unnoticed. In the
overwhelming excitement Of battle he
may be shot, stabbed, or crushed without
feeling pain. (b, The blow of high We

loss of sleep is an important factor, the
following explanation seems adequate:
AS we have stated already, pain is always
associated with muscular action. There
fore if the kinetc system is SO completely
exhausted that no more muscular action
can be excited pain is impossible. In a
state of exhaustion, therefore, unless the
injury is sufficient to mobilize the dregs
of energy remaining in the kinetic organs,
there will be no muscular action and no
pain. This explanation is strongly sup
ported by the fact that as soon Us ex-
hausted soldiers had slept long enough to
restore in some measure the energy of the
brain, the adrenals, and the liver, then
muscular action, and coincidentally pain,
were evoked normally.
Two Striking Examples
A REMARKABLE example of the de-
preston of pain in the presence OF other
more dominant stimuli is the case of a
young British sergeant, who in a severe
engagement while standing near a battery
had his leg partially cut off by a shell that
failed to explode. He felt no pain, merely a
jar, and discovered his injury only when his
leg failed to support him. He hoped to
a nearby stack of grain and lay down
behind it. Here he took out his dull one
bladed knife and completed the amputa-
ton, feeling no pain in making the di-
vision. An ambulance squad started for
him, but Immediately the enemy fired
upon them, killing one. The fire becom-
ing more intense, the sergeant rolled over
and overinto a nearby ravine. The enemy
advanced SO fast that in his excitement
he struggled up and, forgetting that his
leg was gone, threw his weight on the

ical of many Others, which ran some
what as follows:
I am woman living in small country
of earning money that will not take me
away from home. I am very fond of dogs
and have always been successful in rearing
the puppies l have owned. Would 1t be
into the business Of raising puppies for sale?
How should l begin? How much capital
would need? How much space and what
equipment? How can be sure of finding a
market? What breed do you recommend?
Perhaps can best answer all these
questions by relating the experiences of
cessfully-Mrs. Edith M. Baker of North
Hampton, New Hampshire.
Mrs. Baker chose the Old English or
bob-tailed sheep-dog, because that breed
was particularly attractive to her. 1t is
not one of the most popular breeds in this
country, but high prices are obtainable
for good specimens, and Mrs. Baker has
succeeded in securing customers for her
output. In the past few years the breed
has become better known here, owing
to the appearance of several fine i'm
portations and their progeny in the dog
shows.
The Old English sheep-dog is an ancient
breed of Great Britain. In character he
is affectionate and intelligent, seldom be-
coming bad-tempered, and as rule a
splendid companion for children. In ap-
pearance he is one of the showiest of dogs
with his bear-like gait and his immense
coat, fairly covering his face. He is
large, powerful dog, and much more
active than one would suspect
Having decided upon this breed for her
future operations, Mrs. Baker sought for
the best breeding stock. This was in 1905
With Mr.. Baker she made trip to Eng
land, visiting Mrs. Charters famous KEN
nels at Brentwood. She became con-
vinced anew that the bob-tai was an ideal
country dog, and purchased two of the
Brentwood strain. The male was son of
the famous Shepton Hero and the bitch
was a gray beauty called Brentwood
Cherry Girl. The pair were brought back
to America without great expense, there

dOgS remarkably nealthy.
1t Pays When You Know How
MRS. BAKER issues the following di-
rections for feeding puppies: One
puppy biscuit at seven or eight o'clock;
milk, slightly warmed, at ten or eleven
o'clock; cereal or shredded wheat with
milk at twelve or one o'clock; milk at
three or four o'clock; raw meat, ground,
with boiled rice, at six or seven o'clock.
Gradually drop the milk feelings after
four months, and at six months and after
give dog biscuit, or one and a half, for
breakfast, piece of dry bread or a dry
bone at noon, and hearty meal at night
of cooked or raw meat with rice or
shredded wheat or other cereal, slightly
moistened with soup. Sailed, well cooked
vegetables, such as carrots, cabbage,
beans, or spinach, may be added to this
mixture. Boiled fish may be substituted
for meat occasionally. Always give
plenty of water in clean dishes. Never
feed poultry or pork.
"For exterminating feas," she says,
soak ten cents worth of quassia chips
overnight in hot water; sponge the skin
and brush the hair with the liquid. Brush
the dog every day the wrong way with a
bristle or whalebone brush for good
coat"
Mrs. Baker started with one double
kennel, but soon found it necessary to
build range of open-air kennels with
spacious runs.
"The dog business does pay" says Mrs.
Baker, "if one can stand the disappont-
ments and discouragements of the first
few years. A we'll known dog breeder
once said that he had to fill graveyard
with dogs before he learned to bring them
up. But that is true of almost any enter
prise in live stock. have learned now
by experience how to cope successfully
with puppy ills, and have not lost dog or
a puppy for two years. think l could

but most people have to expect to pay
something for experience.

during winter storms. For the most part,
Mrs. Baker has succeeded in keeping her
dogs remarkably healthy.

STUDY CLUB GAVE
SPLENDID DINNER
Reading Room for Kendrick
Assured

The initial reception for the es-
tablishment of a Public Reading
Room for Kendrick, took place at
the home of Mrs. Grow, Wednesday
afternoon. A refreshing touch of
spring was in the wild easter lilies
and the gayly-colored japanese
lanterns that adorned the rooms.
The large number of persons who
came and went during the after
noon and evening, showed crafty
ing interest by the townspeople in
this projected undertaking of the
Ladies Study Club.
Tea and cakes were served during
the earlier hours, and in the even
ing most delicious dinner.

ROYAL GWENT
WELSH SINGERS
Concert to be Given Tuesday
Night April IL

The Royal Gwent Welsh Singers,
one of the finest chorus of male
voices from Wales, will afford an
unusual opportunity for the people
of Kendrick to hear some of the
best music of it's kind available in
the United States. After hearing
this concert every member of the
audience will go away with new
vision, an inspiration and a desire
for more of the best in music.
There are few countries in the
world where music is produced and
enjoyed by the masses as much as
in Wales. Almost everyone has
heard that the Welsh people are
great singers and there is a reason
for this. Singing is the national
amusement of the Welsh, just as
base ball is for us.
Each settlement, village or city
in Wales has it's numerous singing
clubs or choruses and they have
local contests just as we have in
base ball. When the contests in
the different sections are worked
out to final, the prize-winners are
sent to the grand national "Eistidd-
fod" at the end of the season and
the final decision is made for the
prize-winners of all Wales.
At the last two international
contests held at Pittsburg, the
famons Apollo club of Chicago had
to take second place on account Of
the prize-winning Welsh chorus.
The thing that makes Welsh chorus
singing so remarkable is the fact
that each voice is chosen because of
its blending qualities, not because
of its greatness. This is the whole
secret of their success.
The Royal Gwent Welsh Male
singers who are to appear here
Tuesday, April II, are all prize
winners and considered the most
perfectly balanced chorus that has
ever come from Wales. The people
Of this community will have the
opportunity to hear the most remark
abe concert of its kind ever given
in Kendrick. See the advertisement

cert.

Death of Mrs. H. N. Nelson

The sorrow that is common to
every family came to the home of
the Misses Anna and Ida Nelson of
our city last Thursday evening by
the death of their mother. The
father and the two daughters were
present when the beloved wife and
mother passed peacefully away.
Mrs. Nelson had been ill for
nearly two years with the dreaded
sickness which the skill
of the best surgeons and physicians
and the loving care and nursing of
the husband and children could not
resist. and the peaceful hour of
departure came to the relief of the
patient sufferer.
Sixteen years ago, she with her
husband and family moved from
Hutchinson, Mimi, to Kendrick.
Idaho. Her husband at that time
was engaged in the Milling business.
For the past several years they have
made their home near Charleston,
Wash, but that the best of care
and nursing could be given her,
she came to the home of her daugh-
ters in our city. The son Neal was
anxiously awaiting favorable news
of his mothers illness but she
passed away before he arrived.
Mrs. Nelson was member of the
Lutheran church number of years
and passed away in the triumphs of
living faith in her Lord and
Master. This word from the
minister, 81 am sure l never met a
more patient sufferer who so readily
received the Word of Scripture and
