gedy which occurred near that place
In the carly morning. the particulars
of which are told as follows by the
Democrat of that place:
Mr.. and Mrs. Hyrum e. Davies
and their sen George of this city met
an untimely and deplorable death
on the morning of July Fourth, when
the auto in which they were riding

miles east OF this city and one and
one-half miles east OF Acequia. Mr..
and Mrs. Davies In company with
Mr.. and Mrs. X. s Houghton and
two small children were on their
way to the Dam In Mr.. Davies big
Case auto, where they had planned
to spen1 the day fishing when the
dreadful accident occurred Mr..
Davies was driving and Mr. Hough-
ton occuOled the front seat with him
and was holding his little four year
old son. The two ladies and Mr..
HoughtOn's two year old boy and the
nine year old son OF Mr. Davies oc-
cupying he rear seat, the ear was
running along at about twenty miles

the weight OF his wife and boy was
too much for him to master.

The grade at the Clear Lake bridge

The grade at the Clear Lake bridge
over Snake river is said to he I'm a
very dangerous condition from the
high water. c. i. Hickerson ran
into waehout Saturday night at
that place and turned his car over
two or three times, landing at the
edge of the water under the bridge
Fortunately no one was hurt, but
had the occupants been thrown into
the river rapids at this place there is
little likelihood that they could have
rescued themselves. The approach
should be fixed or the bridge closed
to travel. Irrigationist.

ALL MEN At HOME SHOULD PRE-.
PARE FOR WAR.

The first test a man is put through
for either war or life insurance is an
examination of his water. This is most
essential because the kidneys play a
most important part in causing prema-
ture old age and death. The more in
furious the poisons passing through
the kidneys the sooner comes decay
SO says DIR. Pierce Of Surgical Insti-
tute, Buffalo, N. Y, who further ad-
vises all people who are past thirty to
preserve the vitality of the kidneys
and free the blood from poisonous ele-
ments, such as uric acid-drink plenty
of water-sweat some daily and take
Anuric, double strength, before meals
This An-u-ric is a late discovery of
DIR. Pierce and is put up in tablet form
and can be obtained at almost any
drug store. For that backache, lum.
bago, rheumatism, rusty" joints, swol
len feet or hands, due to uric acid in
the blood, Anuric quickly dissolves the
uric acid as hot water does sugar
Take a little Anuric before meals and
live to be hundred. Send 10 cents to
DR.. Pierce for trial package of Anuric

CORNS LIFT OUT
WITH FINGERS

You corn-pestered men and women
need suffer no longer. Wear the shoes
that nearly killed you before. says this
Cincinnati authority, because q few
drops of freezone applied directly on
a tender, aching corn or callus, stops
soreness at once and soon the corn or
hardened callus loosens SO 1t can be
lifted out, root and all, without pain.
A small bottle Of freezone cost very
little at any drug store, but will posi-
lively take off every hard or soft corn
or callus. This should be tried, as 1t
lis inexpensive and is said not to irri.
tate the surrounding skin.
