TO HAVE NEW MANAGER.

Miss Letitia Frizzell, the acconlodat-
ing lady operator at the local Western
Union office will be transferred from
this position here to that of operator
Mt some other office, probably Lewiston.
Miss Frizzell has been the manager of
the Grangeville office for some time
aud has made many friends among the
public in business way. 1t seems the
policy of the Western Union Co., on
account of a number of states having
eight hour laws in effect, is to put the
eight hour in force in the operation of
their business and as result will EN-
ploy only male manager in the future.
A lengthy petition signed by practically
all of the business men was sent in to
the western headquarters at Salt Lake,
asking that in this particular case Miss
Frizzell be retained, however it seems
the company did not feel like making
an exception and as result some time
in the future Miss Frizzell will be trans
ferred as operator to some other office
and new manager placed in charge of
the Grangeville office. The young
lady has given the very best of service
and the public will learn with regret
the determination of the company II
replace her.

Doctor Tells How To Strengthen
Eyesight so per cent In One
Weeks Time In Many Instances

following the simple rules. Here is the
prescriptions: Go to any active drug
store and get bottle of Bon-Opto tab
let's. Drop one Bon-opto tablet in a
fourth of a glass of water and allow to
dissolve. With this liquid bathe the
eyes two to four times daily. You should
notice your eyes clear up perceptibly
right from the start and Inflammation
VIII quickly disappear. If your eyes
are bothering you, even a little, take
steps to save them now before it is too
late. Many hopelessly blind might have
been saved il they had cared for their
eyes in time.
Note: Another prominent Physician
10 whom the above article was submit
ted, said: 'Bon--Opto is very remark
able remedy. Its constituent ingredi-
ents, are well known to eminent eye
specialists and widely prescribed by
them. The manufacturers guarantee it
to strengthen eyesight so per cent. in

New York found the Brooklyn end of

the truth to this resultless issue.

cerned the government ceased to in

The New York Globe published the
facts. | went before mems clubs,
women's clubs, and organizations OF

officials would have attended to them
long ago.

Not until two years later was the
truth completely established. At the
beginning of 1917 all the facts stand
forth in their hideous and dreadful
nakedness. But public officials re-
main as Indifferent now as when they
first sneered at every reference to the
truth.
The only advance lies in TIE fact
that they are no longer able to sneer.

make this sweeping assertion for the
reason that the convicted slaughter
ers have confessed it to be true. Up
to the date of their slaughter these
same cows were producing milk and
butter.
DR.. Alderman confessed that he
had never before seen such a sight.
He was visibly affected by the fact
that the cows lad evidently been pro-
ducing milk to the very day in which
they were sold for slaughter. Milk
dripped from their udders even on
the killing floor.
"All during my service in the
Brooklyn establishment" he said, Il
was constantly approached by insinu-
ating suggestions from strangers
who managed to make it clear to me
that l could earn three times as much
money as the city paid me. My men
were pretty severe in condemning
stuff at that time and 1 soon found
myself relived of duty"
Notwithstanding such disturbing
facts as these the Health Department
officials remained unmoved. Other
significant revelations followed each
other in quick succession, but to no
purpose.
A. +. Hunt. manager of the Swift
establishment at Harrison, n. J., in
spired by these incidents, purchased
various lOlS Ol COWS at 1870, SS.l0,
and $9.10 a head. His experiment
with them, as reported to me in one
paragraph, should be quite enough to
arouse the entire country to an ap-
probation of the horrible truth now
receiving so little attention.
Heretofore" he said, these ami
mails have always been killed in un-
inspected establishments. At an aver
age cost of 50 n head we have tried
them out for the reason that the hide
of every one of them is worth $5 and
the tallow and fertilizer stock S5
more. Our experience with them,
however, has proved so offensive that
we have abruptly ended the expert
ment. Apparently all such cows are
grossly diseased and should not be
slaughtered in any establishment
where meats intended for human food
are prepared
Here then are two sets of records.
The federal officials found the Jersey
end of these transactions to be inde-
scribably bad. The city officials of

thirty-two suspects with another lot
OF one hundred and seventy cows so
that it was impossible to identify the
original thirty-two and post -mortem
them as one lot.
An appeal was then made to the
Bureau of Animal Industry for assist
ance. DIR. Long, in charge of the
Brooklyn station, responded to the
appeal, but was unable to pick out
the tf.irty-two animals from the pens
In which they had been confused with
one hundred and seventy others.
Nov. 6, 1914, l escorted DR.. L. B.
Ackerman, chief veterinarian of the
New York City Health Department
and DIR. Carl e. McCombs, of the
Bureau of Municipal Research to
kearny, n. J., to witness the post
mortems made by DR.. A. W. Combs
of the Bureau of Animal Industry.
The post-mortem held upon the 33
cows seized by tie government re-
vealed loathsome pathological condi-
tions. The animals were literally con-
sumed with tuberculosis. Every
gland of their bodies was diseased.
The lungs in many instances con-
sisted of mere patches of tissue suf-
ficient to keep tie creatures alive for
short time. The glands of the
neck and intestines were rotten. The
disease had so eaten into the tissue
of some of the cows that the flesh
between tie ribs and the hide was
IN suppurating condition.
When the carcasses were evscer-
ated they discharged pus from tuber-
culosis assesses of the liver. kid
neys, lungs, and even the spleen. All
of these animals We're condemned and
"tanked." They would have been
killed in the Brooklyn establishments
and passed for food purposes. l
