MASQUERADE Ball Success.

The ST. Valentine masquerade ball
at Phelps, staged by the Booster Club
of that thriving little town last Fri
clay evening. February 18th, was
big success from every viewpoint. 1t
was the social event OF the season.
Miss Deloris Riyette took first prize,
Miss Limpi Jaaska second and Fran
els McGregor third for best costumes.
Financially it more than came up TO
expectations and in every other way
lit brought credit to the promoters.
Costumes were many and varied and
showed cleverness in their makeup.

Person Remedy Co., Charlotte, N. C.
Dear Sirs: l have had exceptionally
beneficial results from taking Mrs. Joe
Persons Remedy. For several years l
nave suffered with what is called uric
acid" and have taken number of
medicines in various sections of the
country as prescribed by physicians.
who for the most part very frankly
stated that they did not know what
my trouble was, beyond stating that if
was uric acid" They did not know
what caused it nor did they know a
remedy that would cure it. Some kind of
salts were usually prescribed by them
My feet were almost always blis-
tered and running; raw places made
1t impossible for me to wear my shoes
Tor long stretches at the time. I fol-
lowed the directions in taking Mrs.
Joe Persons Remedy and for several
months now have not had a re-appear-
ance OF the trouble. believe that this
remedy will eliminate uric acid if
taken in sufficient quantities. Yours
truly, B. T. GROONIE.

DEFY TIME BY KEEPING FIT

When one has been overworking,
undersleeping, overdrinking, overeat-

eating"
"Smothered himself to death. Work

expense of the state, was SIP, 500, 900,
The legislature of the two neigh
boring states were in session the

Idaho legislature a~djourning four
days before the Washington legisla-
ture adjourned. During the session
just ended Idaho's legislature approp-
rated a grand total of So, 000,0 900 for
all purposes. while Washington's leg
islature appropriated $35, 10000 O or
almost four times as much as Idaho's
Legislature appropriated.
Thus it is seen that, with three
times the population and less than
double the taxable wealth, and with
a smaller area it costs almost four
times as much to govern Washing
ton as it does to govern Idaho.
But Washington had no state debt
last year while Idaho had a total
state debt of $2,818,75O. Yet this
state debt is a very small item when
compared with the appropriations
for Washington for two years.

IDAHO VS..

IDAHO VS.. WASHINGTON.
Idaho and Washington, lying side
by side and having many similar
features, form an interesting study
by using comparisons. Washington
is an older state than Idaho. It's
first settlement was made in 1911
while the first settlement in Idaho
was in 1912. Washington was adj
mitted eight months before Idaho,
having become a state in November,
1889 while Idaho was not admitted
until July, 1890.
Which state is the larger? We
venture that a majority would say,
Aoff hand" that Washington is the
larger state, but it is, in reality, much
smaller than Idaho. The latter has
1888 square miles and is 400 miles
long in its extreme length and 305
miles wide in it's extreme ~greadth.
Washington contains 69,127 square
miles IA, 761 less than Idaho) and is

and it's extreme breadth is 236 miles.

three times the population of Idaho.

L. Dotson was working with a
garden rake in his field in the
eastern part Of town. He stop
ped for a moment to rest, when,
just as he did so, a bolt of light

flash struck a hay-stack within
twelve feet of him. The concus-
sion was terrific and, for a few
minutes, rendered Mr., Dotson un.

he found the hay-stack torn to
pieces and on fire. Dazed as he
was, he managed to extinguish the
blaze. He had a narrow escape
and it was several hours before he
fully recovered from the shock.

FIRST TARPON OF SEASON
Landed Saturday by a Toledo
Gentleman

To ID. Anderson, a leading bust
ness man of Toledo, Ohio, who is
enjoying sojourn at Hotel Pun
ia Gorda, belongs the honor of
having landed the first tarpon of
the season at Punta Gorda. Ac-
companied by Guide Sheldon and
equipped with the usual tackle,
he went out on the bay, Saturday
morning, and, after an hour or SC
cruising around, he hooked a
superb silver king. He played
the fish for nearly an hour, during
which time it made several spec
tacular leaps high in the air.
Finally, the big fish was landed
and brought to the hotel, where
it was weighed and measured. 1T
measured six feet two inches and
tipped the scales at ninety-fve
pounds. The fish was hung up in
front of the hotel, where it was in
spected and admired by many
tourists and citizens.
News Of Mr.. Anderson s catch
was wired to several Of the lead
ing newspapers of the state, and.
Monday morning, he began re-
ceiving kilograms Of congratula-
tons from friends in Miami and
other places.
We hope Mr.. Anderson will
have the pleasure of landing more
tarpon before he returns Ito his
Ohio home.

A gentleman who was in Area
dia last week says that it has been
discovered up there that good
quality of liquor can be made
from Carter's grass; that, in fact,
"moonshiners" are already max
ing it. They chop the grass into
small bits, beat them into a
mash, !" which they permit to
ferment for a few days, after
which the juice is drawn off and
distilled. Our informant does not
believe that Editor Carter is sell
ing his grass for such an unholy
purpose, but he thinks the moon
sinners" are stealing it and that s
what makes Carter so mad about
whiskers and other things. You
see, whiskers sounds something
like whiskey, and Carter hates
both.
