VALUELESS CHEST

Firing a 5O00-mile joke at one an

what happened, according to recent
developments in the custom house.
Some time since the American
schooner C. C. Mengel, Jr., reached
here from AKIN, West Africa, with a
cargo of mahogany logs. On the
schooner's manifest was found a no

WHEN YOU WAKE

Says insIde-bathing makes any
one look and feel clean,

Wash yourself on the inside before
breakfast like you do on the outside.
This is vastly more important because
the skin pores do not absorb impurf-
ties into the blood, causing illness,
while the bowel pores do.
For every ounce OF food and drink
taken into the stomach, nearly an
ounce of waste material must be
carried out of the body. IL this waste
material Is not eliminated day by day
1t quickly ferments and generates
pnisons, gases and toxins which are
absorbed or sucked into the blood
stream, through the lymph ducts which
should suck only nourishment to sus-
tain the body.
a splendid health measure is to
drink, before breakfast each day, a
glass or real hot water with a tea
spoonful OF limestone phosphate in 1t,
which is a harmless way to wash
these poisons, gases and toxins from
the stomach, liver, kidneys and
bowels: thus cleansing, sweetening
ana freshening the entire alimentary
canal before putting more food into
the stomach.
A quarter pound of limestone phos-
plate costs but very little at the drug
store but is sufficient to make anyone
Gn enthusiast on inside-bathing. Men

THE WAR OPERATION

Washington, Oct. 23.-Secretary
Bakers weekly review of war opera
tions as issued tonight disclosed the
belief that American military experts
the winter will not halt the great al
luied drive against Germans in Flan-
ders. The statement says the potency
of material, and men will enable the
British and French commanders to
overcome all natural obstacles, and
continue forcing the enemy backward
without waiting for spring. For the
first time time, the review touches
the American expeditionary forces in
France by declaring the men, after
three months training, are in efficient
fighting trim. The secretary says it
is apparent the recent expedition
against the Russians at Riga was the
sector made to meet the impending
internal difficulties of Germany.

CROW CREEK WANTS

ROMAN WON OVER
THOMPSON, BY 4 TO 3

We regret and apolozizc for failing
to publish the outcome Of the game
between Thompson Falls and Roman
one week ago Sunday 1t was the
fastest and cleanest game played
this year and both teams were in fine
condition and confident of winning.
The Thompson boys arrived in good
time and from the opening of the
game until the last inning played in
champion form, but they were unable
to pile up the necessary scores.
In the second inning Roman scored
three men and in the fourth Thomp-
son scored one man. From the fourth
inning to the ninth it was an exhibit
tion of pitching on the part of both
pitchers, Breshear for Roman, strik-
ing out 10 men and Swain for the
visitors, striking out seven.
Thompson sent two men over the
plate in the first half of the ninth
and tied the score, and it looked like
another inning, but in the last half
one man went down, the second got
away on an error and made home
when Potyin knocked out a double.
The lineup of the teams follows:
Ronan---Koupal. Mccarthy, McDon-
aid, Wagner, Walker. Potvir, Gariepy,
Turnquist and Breshear.

ELEVATORS FINISHED

The new grain elevators being
constructed in the new towns of
Pablo and Tabor by Stanley Scarce,
are now about ready for business
and present an imposing appearance
when viewed in proportion to the
other buildings near them. Both
elevators are large enough to care
for all grain which will come to
either station and are equipped with
up-to-date machinery for the hand
ling of grain. The Tabor elevator is
ready for business, with the excep-
tion of connecting up the betting and
this will be done within a few days
and the elevator will then be ready
to receive grain.
Within a few days the carpenter
crew at work on the Pablo elevator
will have finished putting on the fin
ishing touches and will move to Ro-
nan and commence work on an ele-
vatof of similar construction and
larger proportions at this place.

OIL THE NATIONAL NEED.

Next to food and munitions crude
oil is of more Importance to the ma
tion than anything else. not except
ing soldiers and sailors.
Soldiers and sailors cannot be G.
quipped or placed on the battle front
without fuel and transportation,- with
out oil.
Gasolene horsepower built and sold
in 1913 was 11,3OO In 1916 it was
double that figure. In 1910 we had
100000 motor cars in use. In 1916
we had 2,350,O0O.
The additional cars required $4,000
900 barrels gasolene a year, and to-
day automobiles are demanding 40,-
100000 to 50.OOO,OOO barrels. Be-
sides there are million motor boats
Railroads in 1916 consumed 4o,000,-
900 barrels of fuel oil and demand
much more this year, while the gov
ernment refuses to allow them to
develope crude oil on their own lands.
The progress of the army today de
pends on automobiles and trucks to
carry food and munitions, gasolene to
propel and oil to lubricate.
