this circular motion very slowly or until

Another exercise which pulls on tho
waist muscles and keeps them slender
Is gone through as follows:
Raise your arms to horizontal. Then
stretch them straight above your head
with your fingers interiocked and your
arms touching your ears. Your hands

wrist and your elbows straight. With
your fingers still interlocked, describe a

Bolshevisrn in Boise.

GPHE police revelations that Bolshevis-
tic literature is being circulated here
u the most inflammatory, seditlous
stuff ever put out from the caverns OF dis
order and revolt-ought to cause the public
to awaken to the dangers that surround
them.
The Capital News published enough ex-
tracts from the pamphlet to denote its
character. It is anarchistic all over
-smeared with disregard for every Amer
lean right and every American institution
"a bomb and torch on every page.
The home-loving, patriotic citizens OF
Boise are not accustomed to such propa-
ganda being spread to their doors, and they
resent it and hold in contempt its authors
and distributors.
There is no chance for any one being de-
ceived as to their true character but there
is possibility of deception being prac-
ticed by cunning men who, to aid their per
sonal cause, secretly encourage support
from such agencies.
When such support is publicly given,
although privately sought, the evidence is
ample to justify the public in the conclu-
sion that the recipient is a dangerous man
notwithstanding pretense and alluring
promise.
Such men are worse than the base tools
they use because of their two-faced ma
lures They believe it is not difficult for
them to fool people into trusting them
and to trust them means to summon So
cialism, Bolshevism, red anarchy in the
order named.
Bolshevism will never get foothold in
Boise. The people will rise against it en-
masse if necessary. 1t will be less difficult
to restrain and to eject it, however, if we
at once detect and isolate those who are
playing with that element while yet lack
ing the courage to publicly bear its red
badge Of infamy.

the fate of the eastern empire.
Agreeing to help the son Of former
emperor, who had been deposed. the
crusaders actually laid siege to and con-
auered the city OF Constantinople. The
people, however, revolted as soon Is the
crusaders left. and killed the new en-
peror. whereupon tho crusaders, in
1904. again took Constantinople. With
this last disaster the Roman Empire

For now the crusaders. having won
the capital, went on to treat the rest
of the empire a. their own. They
divided among themselves a. much Of
tho empire az they could take. In =
word the western empire was over
thrown not by the Mohammsdans, but
set up what we may call . Latin en-
pire in Constantinopls to dinsrsntiats It
from the old Greek empire.
The canny venetians managed to get
hold OF many islands in the east and
important points along the coast. which
formed the beginning OF their eastern
dominion. Other Latin nations also
| made eonquests from what once had
been the domain of the empire Of the
east. Still the Greeks managed to re-
tain their independence in some cities,
and later to retake Constantinopls and
to hold It for a time.
When the Greeks won their ancient
| city back again 1t was not as a united
empire that they held II. Indeed. the
| empire of Constantinople thereafter
was little more than tho most powerful
of several Greek states. Yet It con-
trived to continue for q time.
Still the emperors Of Constantinopie
called themselves emperors of the Ro-
mans. and professed to continue the old
Roman form of succession, The crown
remained with very little interruption In
one family till the empire was finally
wiped out by the Ottoman Turks, who
held Cons tantinople until our day.

one could have expected. 1t had several
interesting causes.
Following In the wake OF the crusaders
who went overland to Palestine. the
eastern emperors had been able to win
back large part OF their dominions IN
Asia. which had been lost through the
conauests of the saracens, and the dep
relations OF the Turks. Indeed. there
was a time under the impetus given by
the crusades, when the eastern empire
seemed destined once more to rule over
all tho lands It once had held.
But the prosperity OF the empire was
only of short duration. The kings OF
Sicily ravaged Greece several times.
there were wars with Hungary, the
Bulgarians revolted. and the Turks de-

A WRONG IMPRESSION

The impression seems to be
abroad that the common council
were considering a proposition to
purchase the local water works
and electric light plant. This is
not true, What, the common
council is considering is a pro-
posal to secure an engineer to go
over the proposition of a sewer
and drainage system for the
town. This matter is in the
hands of a committee of one, who
will consult an experienced drain
age engineer, who is expected to
arrive here any day, and no doubt
a feasible plan for a sewer and
drainage system will be the result.
When the common Council Sc
cures such a plan, the. whole mat
ter will be laid before the people
In mass meeting and thoroughly
discussed.
There is no doubt in the minds
of the people who live here, but
that a sewer and drainage sys-
TEN for the town is absolutely
needed. The good health of the,
community demands it and the
fact that rising underground
waters, due to the bitches and ir-
rigation of lands, jeopardizes the
safety of buildings in the busi-
ness section of the town, makes
it imperative that something be
done at once to insure the stabil-
ity of buildings.
Our town is growing slowly,
perhaps, but surely. A healthy
growth that steadily adds new
homes and increased population.
What we must do for ourselves
and those who will come here to.
live, is to make the town healthy
by doing away with cess pools and
adopting modern methods for the
disposal of all waste water and
sewage matter, and this can be
accomplished by sewer and
drainage system.
