A POOR START.

A gentleman passing a store a
few days ago, pointed to a boy s..
ting ONE distance back from the
front window perusing fashy litera-
ture, remarked that nearly every
time he passed the boy was filling
his head with that sort of stuff,
and asked what could be his view
of life-how he regarded it. That
is something no man can tell, much
less the boy, but it may be safely
pronounced a poor start towards
getting the right view. Let the
Industrious but Understanding
young gentleman continue to fill
up on backstairs society and cheap
thrills, and if he happens to hold
any view worth having it will be
an accident.

EPIGRAPHS PROVE A PUZZLE
Explanation Of Hierogyphics Admit
teddy Very Old VIII Surely Be Of
the Greatest Interest.

Amateur psychologists Of California
are endeavoring to interest profess
siOnal scientists of the East In the
epigraphs which abound on the rocks
of Round Valley, not far from the city
Of Bishop, and which are believed to
be as old, IL not older, than the hero
glyphics Of earliest Egypt, to which
they bear a strange resemblance.
1t is believed by many that the
strange markings constituted the
names by which ancient tribes marked
the source of water supply for the
benefit of those Of their number who
lived rowing lives.
These hieroglyphics have never been
deciphered, although they are matters
Of record in the leading museums of
the country, 1t is said. The Indian
tribes now living in the vicinity de-
clare they are the work of the Indians
of North America and that they ante
date all aboriginal lore.
Some who have examined the
strange markings in the flinty bowl
ders say the heiroglyphics closely re-
semble those of earliest Egypt and
may replace the latter as the first
written language Of humanity.
They are found always In the vicin-
ity of water supplies, the same mark
ings discovered near Bishop appearing
also on rocks extending through the
Canadian border, down through Wash
ingtOn, Oregon and California to the
Mexican line and beyond. This fact,
1t is argued, indicates that prehistoric
tribes marked highway for their mi
grating members or for their armies,
giving specific directions as to the best
water supplies along the way.

French Live Stock on tho Decline.

The United States food administra-
ton has called attention to the large
decrease in live stock in France since
the beginning of the war. In cattle
this decrease amounted to 2,599,O 900 up
to December, 1917; In sheep the de-
crease amounted to 8,23S,OOO head; in
hogs to 2,S69,0OO head. In the period
since owing to the food shortage there
has been still further shrinkage. Fig
ures like these indicate that there will
be large and insistent demand for
live stock from this country for the
foreign trade for many years after
peace Is finally established.

chess Devotses.

To its devoteee chess Is the most
absorbing Of all mental activities, the
game that above all others brings
complete forgetfulness of the world
30 those who play and those who
watch the moves, observes a writer In
the New York Herald.
A striking example Of this self-ab-
sorption has been shown recently In
the rooms Of local chess club when
distinguished experts struggled for SUI
premacy in the mimic field needless Of
The stupendous four-year struggle that
was fast drawing to close on Eu-

What was the reckless slaughter Of

number who watched them with fur
rowed brows and fast-beating hearts
thought Of the kaiser's peace offer
while the queens gambit was passing
before their eyes? The pope may lift
his voice In words Of solemn counsel,
but they heed him not. The only &C.
clesiastical power that they recognize
is that Of the mitred bishop sweeping
into the heart Of the enemy's country
and shifting the rock as 1t stands.
To read the printed accounts Of this
tournament is to recall the old Puck

in their chairs from a burning build

FIRELOSSs5OlO0D
Hardesty Garage Blaze Ru1ned
26 Motor Cars. .
Overheated Engine Ignites a
Gasoline Tank.


Twenty-three motor cars and three
motor trucks were destroyed or dam
aged by fire when, it was thought. an
tank in the Hardesty garage, 425
jackson street, last midnight. : The
loss in cars and damage to the one
story building was today estimated at
about $4,000 by Lud Hardesty, pro-
prietor.
Salvage and clearing away the ruins
began early today. Hardesty declared
he will find a temporary location at
once and resume business until the
building, owned by Fred Sage. a
Dover farmer, is repaired.
Many OF the motor cars were prac-
tically total loss, Hardesty said. The
fire was not controlled until the gaso-
line tanks in most of the ma chimes
in the main room of the garage had
exploded, in many instances tearing
away the body fronts. Hardesty said
the loss in cars was between $35. 900
and $4,000. The loss on the build
ing. the interior of which, except the
front end, and the roof, were de-
stroyed, was estimated at $4,000 or
more.

ficient, the mild group declares.
If other mild reservationists accept
this view Lodge will probably be able
TO carry majority with him on the
final vote, provided the six Demo-
cratic votes, Which Republican sena-
tors claim, materialize.
The ten reservations were part of a
list presented by Chairman Lodge and
declared by the Republican leaders TO
represent a compromise behind which
a majority of the, senate is pledged to
stand. The administration members
of the committee, headed by Demo-
cratic Leader Hitchcock, voted solidly
against all of them.
Showing. for the first time, how
ever, willingness to include reserva-
tionS of an interpretative character in
the ratification, Senator Hitchcock
and his colleagues offered substitutes
for several of the reservations pre-
sented, but not a substitution or
change was made at their suggestion.
The Subjects Covered.
The ten subjects covered by the
reservations were: =
Withdrawal from league member
ship; Article x; the right of congress
to authorize Mandates national SUI
premacy over domestic questions: the
Monroe doctrine; Shantung; Imita
tons on the reparations commission;
the power of congress to determine
contributions to league expenses; the
right to increase armament in certain
circumstances, and the right to con-
tinue trade with a covenant breaking

Mrs. Upton said:
Il am a pretty old woman, past 72

would nearly cry. My feet would
swell so badly that for weeks at a
time I could not wear my shoes, and
1 was in perfect torment day and
night. I never had a minute free
from pain and had been this way so
leng that-years ago had given up all
hope of ever being helped. 1 had
spent a small fortune in the last
thirty years for different kinds of
medicines and never got a penny's
worth of good from any of it.

doses. I had taken but a few bottles
when my appetite was simply fine,
something that 1 had not had for so
long I could hardly believe it. L ate
good meals and began to get stronger.
1 slept better than have in years, and
my terrible rheumatism has left me
and I have not had an ache or pain
since taking Tanlac. I am in good
health every way and am enjoying
life again. I feel so much younger
than 1 did, T can hardly believe I am
as old as 1 really am. What Tanlac
has done for me at my age is wonder
full. I am going to praise Tanlac as

took the oats on the break. A fair amount
OF hedging was done for the country, but
buyers in the last thirty minutes. Prices
have had bulge of 613 cents from the

top within tweek. and the belief exists
that corn prices are not likely to advance

the other hand it is argued that hogs have
made break of over $40 from the high

TREATY SUPPORTERS FIGHTING

Washington, Oct. 23.-Treaty sup
porters prepared today for fight to
obtain unqualified ratification of the
pact.
Senator Hitchcock declared there are
many moves ahead for the administra-
ton forces despite the word that sew
eral mild reservationists have indicated
their approval of the foreign relations
committee reservations, as agreed on.
The committee adopted ten revised
reservations yesterday. One move
contemplated by. Hitchcock is a
straight out vote ON ratification of the
treaty without reservation. He is ex-
pected to plan maneuvers with a view
to putting the Republican party on
record against simple ratification of
the treaty before the reservations are
voted on.
Mild Group Springs Surprise.
Scores of amendments TO reserva-
tions will be offered by Democratic
senator's, it was said today. Dozens of
roll calls will be demanded, they say
Democratic senators heard with
some surprise reports that the mild

Nary, Lenroot, Hale and probably Colt
and Kellogg, plan to support the reso-
luton of ratification including reser-
vations, as approved by the senate for
Smith, Georgia. also was reported to
lean toward them and Senator Shields.
Tennessee, another Democrat, voted
with Republicans on many of the re-
servations in committee. Senator Nc
Cumber is the leading Republican still
opposing the committees reservations.
Demo. Leaders Firm.
Both Hitchcock and Senator Swan
son, leading the administration fight,
declare no reservations will be
adopted which will send the treaty
back for negotiation.
Senator McNary, one of the mild
reservationists. gave as his opinion
today that the preamble agreed upon

powers to accept the senate reserva-
