Nitalitas have noticed the statement
that IL puts vital force into weakened
and diseased portions Of the body

than to answer them. But this mucb
may be said in reply: Vital force is
the natural principle of animated
life IL is the living or maPnetif.
fire that prevades al living bodies
The activities and functions of the
living body depend upon this vital
force.

with it. 1t is purely a Nature pro-
duct Science merely extracts il i'm
condensed liquid form from the vol

bility, catarrh and in fact all derange-
ments Of stomach, liver, kidneys and

Judgment entered by Judge Ed l..
Bryan in favor of the Lemp estate.
The city was represented by J. p. Pope
and the Lemp estate by c. H. Lingen-
felter and A. A. Fraser.
The city claims that the late John
Lemp did not possess clear title to the
land involved in the controversy and
that therefore title had not passed to
his successors; that the deceased or
his heirs were not entitled 20 posses
sion of the property but that title
rests with the city. The defense claims
title clearly passed: that II. Il. Pick
EFT in 1858 first gave the late John
Lemp title after he had occupied the
land and that from that time up to the
present the land has been occupied 1t
was also argued by the defense that
James A. Plnney, John NJ. Haines and
W. l.. Pierce, who ut various periods
were mayors of Boise. also passed
deeds to Mr.. Lemp and that on at
least two occasions offers were made
to Mr.. Lemp by the city TO purchase
the triangle, and that the city did pur-
chase a plot of ground within it which
is now in use as the site for fire sta
ton.
The late John NJ. Lemp and his
heirs, the defense claims, have been in
possession of the property continuous
ly for the past IA years during which
time they have paid $4,000 in taxes.
