IMMENSE FIELDS OF LAVA
North America Has Two of the Great est That Are Known to Exist
 in the World.

The valley of the ancient Snake river in Idaho was flooded with great outpourings of black lava, which spread out sheet on sheet, buried the old land surface and partly filled the valley with molten rock, which solidi- fled and remained to this day undis- turbed except for the gorges that the streams have cut in it. In some places old mountains project through the pet
 rified lava flood as islands project above the surface of the sea, and old ridges stick out into it as capes and promontories. The area covered by the Snake river lava is about 10000 square miles. So far as is now known, there is but one lava field in North America of greater extent, the Column bia river lava field, which covers about 100000 square miles In Snake River canyon below Shoshone falls nearly 700 feet of horizontal sheets of lava are exposed, but whether this is the maxi mum thickness or not cannot be told.

 Flannel Cloth.

Mrs. Ida Ford lives in Cuba, Mo-, and not on the Island of Cuba, and her discovery is one that many other Mis- souri mothers have made since Wick s Vap-O-Rub was introduced here from the South last winter. And this dis covery is simply this:-that it is no longer necessary to disturb the deli cate little stomachs of the kiddies in treating cold troubles. But let Mrs. Ford speak for herself.
 T have tested Vap-O-Rub three times on my little boy four years old for croup. and can say l have never used medicine of greater value for this trouble. It acted almost imme- diately. My boy is subject to croup and have used almost every kind of medicine one could buy for it, but it was always about three days and nights before I could get 1t checked. Vick's Vap-O-Rub acted almost imme- diately. You may use this letter if

N0T LIKELY
Republicans and Real Progress
 sives Wide Apart.
Big interests, Real Rulers of G. 0. D., of Course, Desire 1t, but There Are Many Obstacles to Be
 Overcome.

Boiled down to its bones of meaning, the declaration of principles" issued by certain progressive chiefs means that they are willing to come back in- to the Republican party, if they can choose the candidate and get front seats in the band wagon. Considering that the Republican party has been gaining in strength in nearly every part of the country while the Progress sive organization is well nigh dis solved, this is about as comprehensive bluff as one can find in political his tory.
 Most commentators on the program see one great difficulty in the way of its fultillment. The Journal sees two diff 1iculties, and the one generally over- looked seems the greater.
 The old guard of the Republican party will resent this attempt at die tation, of course, but there may be ways of modifying their resentment. For the most part, the old guard takes it's orders from the big interests, and these interests want to seat their man in the White House, no matter what political gymnastics it may take to accomplish that feat.
 Give them back their old tariff graft and assure them favorable treat ment'' in letting the contracts which are necessary to the new program of national defense, and they care not jot for the "crime of the Coliseum" If Roosevelt can satisfy them on these lines, he can have their support and that of all their henchmen.
 But there is another obstacle to the fusion plan not so easily removed. A considerable part of~the rank and file of the Progressive party were aIH are dead in earnest. They left the Repub lican party on question of principle and they will not come back to it on a program of plunder At the last by-election in Massachusetts, nearly half the vote lost by Progressives went to the Democratic candidate, in- stead of to the Republican one, and similar tendency has been shown in other parts of the country.
 There are some votes which no boss can deliver, and these make the big barrier to the fusion plan so glibly out lined by self-appointed Progressive leaders.-Chicago Journal.

Country Will Not Scare.

overbuilding on the basis either of present war business or what is ex- pected from ravaged and poverty stricken Europe after the war, the statement of Chairman Gary of the United States Steel corporation is well placed. But as an attempt to scare the country into a lot of reactionary legislation. tariff and other, to meet post bellum conditions which neither he nor anyone else can now confident ly know anything about, it is not likely to carry far The politics of it is too obvious.

 Vick's Vap-O-Rub is the invention of a North Carolina druggist. He found how to combine Menthol and Camphor with the volatile oils of Eucalyptus, Thyme, Cubebs and Juniper in salve form. so that, when Vap-O-Rub is ap. piled externally, the body heat re- leases the ingredients in the form of vapors. These vapors are inhaled with every breath, through the air passages, to the lungs. loosening the phlegm, and. in addition. Vick's is ab- sorbed through the skin, taking out the tightness and soreness. This double action makes Vap-O-Rub useful for a wide range of troubles. From infiammations of the air passages, such as head colds. catarrh, asthma, sore throat, bronchitis or deep chest colds, down to infiammations ,ot tho skin and tissues, such as burns, bruises. stings, piles and itchings.

Steel knives and forks should not be wrapped in woolen. Good, strong paper is better, as steel is injured by lying in woolen.

TO TALK TO THE WOMEN
by J. P. Yoder, United Press Staff

[By J. P. Yoder, United Press Staff
Correspondent
DENVER, Colo, Oct. 24.-This was
booked as the busiest of all the busy
days Colonel Roosevelt has had since
he started on his $500 mile jaunt
through the southwest and middle
west in the interests Of Republican
Candidate Hughes. He arrived here
shortly after ten o'clock, got a "stren-
uous" welcome, was paraded through
the main streets II the Brown Palace
hotel. attended e. luncheon, had an
auto tour among che nearby hills and
spoke at a woman's meeting this aft
ernoon at the auditorium. This even
ing he Is to lead another parade; at
tend a dinner rendered him by the
Hughes women's special and address
another audience at the auditorium.
Colonel Roosevelt today, for the
first time. expressed himself regard
ing the incident at Chicago when
woman's demonstration during the
Presidents visit there was broken.
He took this incident as one of the
subjects in his speech this afternoon.
The speech was extemporaneous.
The colonel believes his meeting to-
day with the members of the women's
a,it.nns, for defending the women
again the silk stocking" charges
made against them.
Roosevelt had an extra speech
wrung from him yesterday by the
local committee at LasVegas, N. M,
where the population Is sixty per
cent Mexican. He pleaded for straight
Americanism regardless of anteced-
ents, and said IL war with Mexico
does come and he is permitted to
raise a brigade, the first people he
will appeal to will be the American
Meytcans of New Mexico.
The Albuquerque stop yesterday
cost the colonel five cents more than
he had anticipated.
Two busy movie men who had hired
cowboys and cowgirls, and had
bought flags for the school children
to add a touch Of color to the parade,
asked the colonel to pose with an
Indian woman who makes her living
by letting tourists take her picture.
They had promised her a quarter. She
thought she was TO get the money
from Roosevelt and when the movie
men began grinding without any
money having been given her, she
yelled at the Colonel twenty-five
cents or no picture. .
Roosevelt pulled nickel. all the
change he had, from his pocket and
gave it to her. She Docketed the
nickel, but refused to go on unless
she got the union wage. The picture
was taken as the colonel was handing
her the coin.
Colonel Roosevelt surprised the
local republican committee here to-
day by declaring he is supporting
