HEcLA LEASE.

John Finley, of Burke, has taken n
lease Mom the Hecla Mining company
on the ground above No. tunnel,
from which he has already shipped one
carload Of ore of 30 tons. The ore is
mostly lead carbonate with more or
less galena mixed through 1t. The
shoot is not large one. probably av-
eraging or 10 inches wide, but 1t
carries a high value in silver and lead,
and by careful mining 1t Is expected
to yield good profit. The old work.
ings below this tunnel are closed up
with waste and the ore is delivered at
the railroad on go-devils. On account
Of the large volume Of surface water
now coming into the tunnel work has
been suspended on the lease until It
runs Off.

to explain the high registration. To
claim that the large registration IN
this county indicates superabund-
ance of patriotism as compared with
other counties is an odious COMPARE
son which is wholly unwarranted. The
people of Idaho are loyal. it matters
not in what county they happen to re-
side, and the percentage of slackers Is
doubtless about the same in all parts
of the state, and is happily very low.

tary of the Idaho Mining association,
who was instrumental in having the

even where the state has made provi-
sion for support, and there are always
young men who are eager to accept
the fellowships for the benefit of ex-
perience. In Idaho 1t viii be necessary
to adopt the system in order to obtain
working force in the station. While
no public announcement has been
made, it is learned that Occur dAlene
operators are much interested and will
provide the necessary support.
From this 1t must not be, inferred
that the big producing mining COM
panies are actuated by selfish mo-
tive In the matter. That they will re-
ceive direct benefit from the station
through its work in solving metallur-
gical problems with which they have
to contend does not admit Of a doubt.
but work in that line will be for the
benefit Of the mining industry as
whole and not for the especial bene-
fit of the companies which contribute
TO the support of the station. In ad-
dition to working out metallurgical
problems, the station will make COM
plete geological surveys of the state,
together with reports in which will be
compiled much valuable information
regarding the character of mineral de-
posits and the possibility Of treating
them probably. This class of work
will be Of special value to the pros
pector, and will result in attracting at
tention to remote sections Of the state,
supplying information that will be re-
liable and pave the way for the devel-
opment of new mining fields.
Central Idaho. embracing vast
mineral section, will be especially
benefited by the work of the expert
mental station at Moscow. Represen-
tatives of the station will begin this
summer the work of mineral investiga-
ton and survey. and when the work is
completed it will be published for free
distribution by the United States bur-
eau of mines. Thus will the investing
public be supplied with authentic in
formation regarding the mineral re-
sources of the state, and the beneficial
effects WIN soon be in evidence. This
will eventually solve the transporta-
tion problem for central Idaho, for
with mineral deposits of value and ex-
tent that will justify the expenditure
of capital tosdevelop, the question of
will soon be worked
out.
1t Is unfortunate that an institution
such as the experimental station,
which promises to accomplish such
beneficial results for the entire state,
should be denied assistance by the
state. But this is the price we are
paying for Alexanderism.

HOMER McKEE's PRAYER.

| We do not know who Homer Mckee
may happen to be, but certainly HON
er McKee's prayer, as published in the
August Bulletin by the Kansas State
Board of Health, isx Something that
would be worth while for all of us to
consider, and if we commit the prin-
ciple to heart we can not go far astray.
Here it is:
Teach me that sixty minutes make
an hour, sixteen ounces one pound, and
one hundred cents one dollar.
"Help me to live so that I can lie
down at night with clear conscience,
without gun under my pillow, and
unhaunted by the faces of those to
whom l have brought pain.
Grant, l beseech Thee, that I may
earn my meal ticket on the square,
and in doing thereof that l may not
stick the gaff where it does not belong.
'Deafen me to the jingle of tainted
money and the rustic of unholy skirts.
Blind me to the faults of the other
ioiio", pul icNeai W HE my OWL.
Guide me so that each night when
1 look across the supper table at my
wife, who has been blessing to me, l
will have nothing to conceal.
Keep me young enough to laugh
with my children and to lose myself
in their play.
And then when comes the smell of
flowers, and the tread of soft steps,
and the crushing of the hearses
wheels in the gravel out in front of my
place, make the ceremony short and
the epitaph simple:
HERE LIES A MAN"

SECOND IDAHO INFANTRY WILL
GO TO FRANCE.

1t Is announced that $4,000 national
guardsmen will be called to the colors
beginning July Is, and while the diff
ferent organizations which will make
up this army have not been a9nounced,
there Is no doubt that the Second Ida
no infantry is among them. This regi-
ment has now been on guard duty in
various parts of the northwest for
several months and Is now being rap
Idly mustered to the maximum
strength. This regiment made a most
enviable record on the Mexican bOr-
der, receiving high commentator fsom
officers in the regular service. It's SER
vice since that time has been equally
creditable, although under less trying
Conditions and the rush to get recruits
to bring it up to full war strength
leaves no doubt that the Second Idaho
will be among those in the call for
service in France.
The arrival Of General Pershing In
France will be followed Immediately
by 10000 from the regular army, 1O,-
900 army engineers, a regiment of ma
rines, and other branches of the SER
vice. Now comes the mobilization Of
the state troops, $4,000 strong, be-
ginning July Is. With their expert
ence in the field, 1t is expected that two
months intensive training will place
them in shape to embark for France
where they will receive further train
ing which will readily fit them to take
position on the battle line BY the
last Of September it Is believed that
not less than 100000 American troops
will be in France, and the training of
half million more will be under way,
preparing them to go against the
kaiser by the first of the year.
That American soldiers are badly
needed in France Is indicated by the
following extract from statement
recently made by an officer in the
London Times and which explains why
We are speeding up the movement of
troops:
1.-The question of the nature and the
time of the military support of the
United States must necessarily be de-
cided by America, alone But it is
very important that America should
that France needs help as
quickly as possible, and as the cadres
of the professional army of the states
will be fully occupied in raising and
training the large numbers foreseen,
1t would be best, If America were will
ing, for her to send at least 100000
American recruits to be incorporated
In and trained by the French army as
soon as ships can bring them. France
can not comfortably afford to wait till
next year for military assistance from
America. She needs this support now
in order to keep the French ranks
full, and there Is always the chance
that in view of the certainty that
great army is coming from America,
may change his plans and
throw for big stroke in the west be-
fore the Americans come in full array"

SHoSHoNE COUNTY AND THE
RED CROSS.

The Red Cross has become an iNdis-
pensible adjunct to the army and navy,
and its financial support is just as es
sential as the enlistment of men for
the fighting line. In order to maintain
the efficiency of the fighting force
provision must be made for the care
of the sick and wounded, and this duty
devolves upon the Red Cross and sup
port for this grand organization must
come through the voluntary contribu-
tons Of the people at home. The mag
nitude of the work that confronts the
Red Cross organization is indicated by
the fact that those who have under
taken to finance it estimate that $780,
100000 must be raised at once to in
sure placing 1t on an effective work
ing basis. This Is great sum In the
aggregate, but when appoytioned
among 1OO,O0O,OOO people 1t is not
much Of burden for them to carry,
and particularly so when 1t Is remem-
bered that thousands of these people
have sons and brothers and husbands
and others near and dear to them
whose care may depend upon the work
of the Red Cross. Only 81 per capita
is all that is required, and the cause
is one that will appeal to every patri-
otto and sympathetic heart
The people Of Shoshone county Will
. be asked to contribute much more
than the per capita proportion, and
they are abundantly able to do it.
There is perhaps no county in the
United States in which the people are
more prosperous, nor whose prosperity
is more directly connected with the
great war, The mines are earning UNI
dreamed of profits, and these are shar-
ed with the thousands of employees in |
the form of increased wages, which in |
turn bring prosperity to all lines of |
business. We are asked to contribute |
$4,000 toward raising the $1OO, zoo, 900
In the nation. 1t is a mere trifle COM |
pared with the financial resources of |
the county. Because a few mining
companies or individuals could sub
scribe this fund without feeling it
should not lead individuals of moder-
ate means to expect 1t to be raised in
that way. Every citizen should look
upon 1t as privilege to contribute to
this fund. Hundreds of thousands of
American soldiers will soon be on the
battle lines of Europe fighting for the
honor of the flag and the preservation
OF our nation. Many of them will
never return, many more will be torn
by shot and shell or fall victims of
disease. 1t Is to these that the Red 1,
Cross Is the guardian angel Every ,
dollar contributed to the organization
means that much more help for the
brave boys at the front. And bear in
mind that among these, Idaho and :,
Shoshone county will be represented
BY boys that we know and who are !,
especially entitled to all the assistance =,
we can give for their care and protec-
ton.
Contribute literally to the Red =,
Cross. You can not assist a nobier
,ause.

beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all
means get rid of dandruff, for it will
starve your hair and ruin it if you don't
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid of dandruf is to dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four ounces of ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it at night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips
BY morning, most if not all, of your
dandruf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of it.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging of the scalp will stop. and your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.

quantity of knitted goods at once for
a rush shipment to a special contin-
gent Of men, We will appreciate
your prompt assistance"
After inspection of the socks, the
committee decided that at present they
have enough socks size 10 (no sock
should ever be made less than 10
inches) and almost all the 101s's they
need. So will the sock knitters, I'M
til they have further notice, please
make the socks II or liz inches long?
We always need socks but unless you
know how to knit, do not attempt
them; start on something else. There

Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help, else they
suffer from constipation. The condi.
ton is perfectly natural. 1t is just
as natural as 1t is for old people to
walk slowly. For age is never SO ac-
tive as youth. The muscles are less
elastic. And the bowels are muscles.
So all old people need Cascarets.
One might as well refuse to aid weak
eyes with glasses as to neglect this
gentle aid to weak bowels. The bow
els must be kept active. This is i'm
portant at all ages, but never so much
as at fifty.
Age is not q time for harsh ply
sizes. Youth may occasionally whip
the bowels into activity. But lash
can't be used every day. What the
bowels of the old need is gentle and
natural tonic One that can be con-
stantly used without harm. The only
such tonic is Cascarets, and they
cost only 10 cents per box at any
drug store.

Are Women Naturally Dependent

While there are won en- who seem
always respondent and depressed

woman's natural condition. Such un-
