That the People Are Inter-

Letters.
SITUATION SERIOUS
Concentrated Lye Is Cheap
and Effective Destruc-
tive Power.

Tulsa people are interested in the
proposed campaign for the extermi-
nation of rats. That is evident from
the many suggestions received daily
by r.. O. Tilburne, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce. which organ
ization is doing everything possible
toward improving the city through
an determination of the rodent tribe.
Which Of the suggestions will be
acted upon yet remains to he deter
mined. but that all will receive care
full consideration is certain.
What appears to be one of the most
feasible suggestions received by Mr.
Tilbnrne Is for the use Of concen-
trated lye. 1t is explained that if the
I've is distributed on the rat runways
and at the entrance of their holes the
rodents will be unable to travel on
the surface of the ground without
and they lick it off. When they lick
ii off it's goodby rat.
The writer explains that she has
known Of thousands of rats meeting
their end through this ridiculously
simple system, and it may work out
satisfactorily on the large scale which
would be necessary in the Tulsa CAM
paign.
Another Good One.
farmer says he rids his farm of
rodents in the following manner: "On
number of pieces of shingles | put
about half teaspoonful of molasses,
and on that a small quantity of con
centrated lye, and then put the shin
giles around the cribs. The next
morning | found forty dead rats and
the others left for parts unknown. I
have cleared several farms of rats
in this way. and I never knew it to
fail 1t doesn't cost much"

newspaper business Of America will

places on the program.

mittee.

The Boise Council of Women Voters
will observe the birthday of Susan B.
Anthony this year with a memorial
program and party. The exercises will
be held at the Columbian club rooms
on tho evening preceding her birthday
which will be Monday evening, Feb. IA
The address of the evening will be
given by Judge Richards. who has been
identified with the woman suffrage
movement in this state. There will
also be music of n patriotic nature.
Following the program will be a social
hour with light refreshments. The
evening is open to all and the public
is cordially invited to join the cee

gentlemen who were invited to join
with the women in the observance of

tablished a permanent precedent in
this respect.

ON RAMPAGE
BREAKS IN F[UNE

partment Prevents Dam
age, but the Danger Has
Not Yet Passed.

There was CONSERVATION on the part
OF property owners along the Cotton
wood flume last night for there were
two breaks in 1t below Warm Springs
avenue, one above and one below the
Frazer barn. Councilman Eichelberger
and John Sharp, foreman of the street
department. with crews of men, were
engaged making repairs and by this
morning had the breaks fairly well un-
der control. Fortunately the water was
diverted into a slough and was carried
into the Boise river. 1t is now feared
that another break will take place in
the flume on the Boise barracks
grounds. This is where there was so
much serious trouble four years ago.
In the event 1t does, the water will be
diverted over the flat just below the
foothills and the Idaho City road used
to turn 1t back into the flume.
The rapid melting Of snow in the
mountains and foothills is the cause of
the rapid rise in the water carried off
by the flume. Sand gravel and often
rocks are carried down the flume,
ciogging 1t. force of men has been
at work keeping the channel clear At
the point where the flume crosses
WARM dNcnuo LlS water 10 up
TO the street, but no damage OF a seri-
Gus nature has as yet been done. Sacks
filled with sand were used to divert
the water at two points where the
break occurred and repairs were made
as rapidly as possible.
Rain threatens today and should
there be heavy showers the danger OF
the flume overlooking its banks will be
increased In that event considerable
damage will be done to adjacent
property.
Investigation OF the streams Of the
county by the county commissioners
show they are running free and unless
there are exceptionally heavy rains
there will be no serious damage. 1t is
claimed The snow is very deep in the
J mountains, however. and warm wealth
er may cause more serious floods thar
are anticipated.

KEEP URIC ACID
OUT OF JOINTS
Tells Rheumatism Sufferers
to Eat Less Meat and
Take Salts.

Rheumatism il easier to avoid than
to cure, states a we'll known authority.
We are advised to dress warmly; keep
the feet dry; avoid EXPOSURE eat less
meat, but drink plenty OF good water.
Rheumatism is direct result OF
eating too much meat and other rich
foods that produce uric acid which is
absorbed into the blood. 1t Is the
function of the kidneys to filter this
acid from the blood and cast it out in
the urine: the pores of the skin are
also a means of freeing the blood OF
this impurity In damp and chilly
cold weather the skin pores are closed
thus forcing the kidneys to do double
work, they become weak and sluggish
and fail to eliminate the uric acid
which keeps accommodating and circu-
lating through the system, eventually
settling in the joints and muscles caus-
ing stiffness, soreness and pain called
rheumatism.
At the first twinge of rheumatism
get from any pharmacy about foul
ounces of Jad Salts; put tablespoon
full in a glass of water and drink before
breakfast each morning for a week
This is said to eliminate uric acid by
stimulating the kidneys to normal ac'
ton, thus Kidding the blood of these
impurities.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid of grape!
and lemon juice, combined with lithii
and is used with excellent results b!
thousands of folks who are subject t.
rheumatism. Here you have a pleas
