The Bravest Battle

The Bravest Battle
"The bravest battle that ever wa.
fought,
Shall l tell you where and when
On the maps Of the world you will
find it not;
Twas fought by the mothers of mer
"Nay, not with cannon or battle-shot
With sword, or nobler pen;
Nay, not with eloquent word o. thot
From mouths of wonderful men.
"But deep in a ~walled-up woman's
heart
Of woman that would not yield,
But bravely, silently bore her part
Lo! there is that battlefield!
"No marshaling troops, no bivouac
song;
No banners to CLEAN and wave!
But oh! these battles they last so
long
From babyhood to the grave!
'Yet faithful still as a bridge of stars
She fights in her walled-up town
on, and on, in the endless wars,
Then silent, unseen, goes down!
'Oh, We with banners and battle-shot,
And soldiers to shout and praise,
[ tell you the kingliest victories
fought
Are fought in these silent ways!"

Idaho is "doing her bit" toward winning the war.
The state is furnishing more of the minerals needed
in war work; is furnishing millions of feet of lumber
that must be had to build ships, army environments and
other buildings, is furnishing grain, fruit, live stock,
money and men. It is doubtful if any state in the
Union with the same area and population has done
more for the war than has Idaho with it's wonderfully
varied resources and natural products.

GLYCERINE MIXTURE
FOR APPENDICITIS

Moscow people can prevent ap-
pendicitis with simple buckthorn
bark, glycerine, etc., as mixed in Ad-
ler-i-ka. One spoonful flushes the
entire bowel tract SO completely it
relieves any cast Of sour stomach, gas
or constipation and prevents appendi-
citis. The instant, pleasant action OF
Adler-i-ka surprises both doctors and
patients. Leaves stomach clean and
strong. S. L. Willis, Druggist. 5

Have you ever noticed the number of persons who
leave Moscow on out going trains with their arms
filled with packages? These are people who come from
neighboring towns to trade in Moscow because of the
splendid stocks from which to select their purchases
and the low prices Moscow merchants give to their
patrons. Few towns the size of Moscow draw patron
age from so wide a territory, which is highly compli-
nnentarv to II stores.

GAS MASKS ARE NEEDED

If any one doubts the wisdom of the city installing
a new septic tank the doubt will be removed If the
doubter will take a drive in the evening along the road
toward Pullman, by the railroad tracks. The stencil
arising from the sewage that flows along the open
ditch from the sewer outlet is almost strong enough to
asphyxiate people passing along the road. Gas masks
will be needed by people who have to travel that road
if the stencil gets any worse.

News from Khaki Bows

Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph VanBuskirk
have received the following intensely
interesting letter from their son,
Guy, who is with the American expe-
dictionary forces in France. The let
ter is of especial interest to Moscow
people who have known this young
man almost from childhood, and the
poem which he sent will appeal 70
the moral conditions of the army I'M
der the present regulations. When
soldier boys find such a poem as
this, with a white carnation at their
plate at breakfast time on "Mother's
day. they cannot help being better
men. The letter follows:
Dear Old Daddy:
This day has been set apart as
Mothers day and each one of US are
expected to write a letter to her. AS
you have beer a father and mother
to me both since dear mother died /
will write you my few lines.
Daddy, l will say this much, you
have filled both places in as good a
style as anyone could do, and it has
been my only hope that / may live
to be as good and pure a man and
lead as useful a life as you have.
We have a chaplain here now and
he is a great man. Always a kind
word and a smile for all the boys.
Last eve at the Y. M. C. A. we were
treated to a home talent play which
was very good, then I'VE had hot
chocolate free of charge and are. to
receive a little feed this eve.
This morning when we filed into
breakfast this slip which l am send
ing you and a nice white carnation
were lying at each plate. This, |
think, is the doings Of the chaplain
and certainly met with the approval
of the boys.
This looks like a long siege to me
over here and am afraid it's due to

stand it. l hope to return to you a
better mar than when | left you. At
present that is my condition and am
trying to keep myself that way.
1t looks like a different country
over here since the trees are leaved
out and everything green. Had quite
an electric storm last eve and lots of
rain with it.
Have not received your last package
to me as yet but hope to receive it
soon. | wrote you not to send my :
request until July but you had better
send it as soon as you get this letter.
Flasher say to extend to you folks
his best regards as he says he will
always remember your treatment of
him that day.

your many kindnesses to me. You :

Have Youngs left Moscow yet? If !
they have not, please extend to them
my kindest regards and thank them
