DANGER SIGNAL

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? 1t is much the
same way with a cough. A cough is
a danger signal as much as fire bell
You should no more try to suppress
it than to stop a fire bell when it is
ringing, but should cure the disease
that causes the coughing. This can
nearly always be done by taking
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Many
have used it with the most beneficial
results. 1t is especially valuable for
the persistent cough that so often fol
lows bad cold or an attack of the
grip. Mrs. Thomas Beeching, Andrews
Ind, writes: During the winter my
husband takes cold easily and coughs
and coughs. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the best medicine foi
breaking up these attacks and you

to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
natures demands are greater than in
mature life. This is shown in SO many
pale faces, lean bodies, frequent colds,
and lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
unnistakable earnestness: They need

possesses in concentrated form the very
food elements to enrich their blood. 1t

them sturdy and strong. No alcohol.

The governor of Idaho has des-
ignated April 9 to April Is as
"Clean up Week" when all citizens
throughout the state are urged to
clean and beautify their premises.
The mayors of all the cities in the
state, in line with the recent pro-
clamation of the governor, are call
ing upon the people to get busy.
This wise custom is being adopted
all over the country and Kendrick
should keep pace with every move
ment for civic cleanliness.
Every citizen of Kendrick should
do something next week to make
his premises cleaner, brighter and
more sanitary. He should clean up
not only in his front yard but in
his back yard as we'll. Apply the
paint brush whenever necessary.
Everybody will have a fine oppor-
tunity during clean up week to
show his pride in his home and his
town. Plant flowers, shrubbery
and trees thus making your neigh
bors' lives bit brighter and hap
pier and Kendrick more beautiful,
healthful and attractive place. "a
thing of beauty is joy forever. "
The following brighten-up crusade
rules are worth more than passing
notice:
First-Do not allow rubbish to
accumulate.
Second-Do not throw anything
on sidewalks or streets.
Third-Do not let piles of ashes
or trash remain in back yards.
Fourth-Do not mark or deface
sidewalks.
Five-Keep the garbage car
covered and destroy breeding place;
of flies and mosquitoes.
Six-Plant grass and flowers SEEDS
make a garden and encourage the
love of nature, sunshine and fresf
air.
Seven-Apply paint to fences
sheds and buildings.
Eight-Brighten up Yourself
Brighten up your home and spread
the brighten up spirit among YOU
neighbors.
| Nine-Brighten up your business

progress.
Ten-Let "Brighten-U Up" be YOU

Good roads is a subj ct receiving
marked attention in every part of
the state. The spirit of co-opera-
ton between the counties and the
state is bringing good results every
where.
The real man is he that is clean
inside and out; who neither looks
up to the rich nor down to the poor;
who can lose without squealing and
who can win without Dragging; who
is considerable of women, children

lie, too generous to cheat, and who
takes his share of the world and lets
other people have theirs.

POLITICAL CAPITAL

An editor of a newspaper, or
rather a party organ, is to be pitied.
He appears as a man for whom life
has no sunshine. In the attitude of
a critic he might have a mission,
but as fault finder he has no place.
He finds fault with the policy of
"watchful waiting" and bitterly
condemns the invasion of Mexico. He
believes that our country is on the
verge of dissolution, that disaster,
dire and dreadful, will overtake us
unless the aforesaid editors party
is not speedily returned to power.
He seems to doubt that the Ship of
State can weather the gale until the
next election. In a recent editorial
from this bilious editor we find the
following:
Our machine guns appear to be
suitable only for daylight opera
tions.
Our military wireless system
seems to be more or less of toy.
There is not battleship cruiser
being designed or built and none
has been authorized.
The admiral of one of our fleets
has been compelled to use a tender
as his flagship.
Our submarines do not success
fully submerge, and when they do
SO there is no assurance they will
rise again. Electric batteries with
which they are equipped give off ex.
plosive gases and there are no ven.
tilators to clear the air.
Battleships are doing the work OF
cruisers.
Evolutions and target practice
are neglected.
Literary training for the mer
fills in the time that should bt
devoted to seamanship or recreation
Our dreadnaughts are of profile
NAUTICAL value in comparison will
the more modern ships of othel
nations.
Our lack of preparedness ant
efficiency approximates nationa
disgrace.
Surely that brainy editor has don
his full duty. If the country still
persists in its puerile course, i
must do so with eyes to the rea
dangers confronting us.

STEEL STOCK SHARES
FOR BRIDGE WINNERS
Mrs E. H. Gary's Six Prizes Makes
New York Society and Wall Street
Talk.

NEW YORK, Jan. 18.-Mrs. Ebert
Gary entertained with a bridge party
at her residence, $50 Fifth avenue, on
Saturday, the guests including many
well known members of society. The
prize at each table was one share of
United States Steel preferred stock.
Bridge parties are of ordinary oc-
curence in society, and handsome
prizes are given as a rule, but Mrs.
Gary s party will 60 down in social
history as something entirely new, in
this respect at least. The first intima-
ton that the stock had been awarded
as prizes was heard yesterday in Wall
street, and it was not long before it
was being talked about on the stock
exchange.
The stock given out in prizes, in the
aggregate, was worth about $702, as il
is quoted at Sill a share. Prizes OF
much greater value have been award
ed at society bridge parties, but it was
the novelty that gave significance tc
Mrs Gary 8 awards.
| There were six tables and twenty
four players. At the end of the game
there was considerable speculation a,
/ to the nature of the prizes, as is al
ways the case at any spirited game
of bridge. If the women winners ex
pected to receive silver bon-bon dish
es, powder puff boxes, or vanity case
they were no doubt agreeably sur
prised when they received the stock
! Endorsed in blank The stock draw
| dividends of per cent. The name
of the winners are not known.
1 Mr.. Gary, who is chairman of tn
United States Steel corporation, con
firmed the report of the nature of tn
prizes at Mrs Gary s bridge party
but declined to comment on it in an
way, saying that it was private al
fair.
Mrs. Gary entertains frequently i
the winter season at her home and sh
gives a bridge party once year.
