When sneezlnu Was a Bad Omen.

Sneezing from remote times has
been held ominous. o. forefathers
went to bed again If they sneezed
while putting on their shoes. A
sneeze to the right was deemed lucky;
to the left of evil portent. To sneeze
near burial place was unlucky.

WORTH MENTIONING

Groveling isn't humility. Your
Creator expects you to stand
just as high as he has given you
power to stretch.
The tendency of the times may
be all right, but even the dol
lars are more slippery than they
used to be.
SO many fellows feel holder
when notching the log than
when they get hold of the saw.
Ordinarily a task is not divis-
ible by time.

Service, q. S. Bureau of Crop Esti-
mates and Wisconsin State Depart
ment of Agriculture.
During the year, May 1918, to May
1919. approximately 5000 silos were
built, and the total number increased
from 64,668 to about $500 That
this was done in the face of greatly
increased cost of labor and material
shows how well the value of silage as
a feed has impressed itself upon Wis
consin farmers. 1t is estimated that
there is one or more silos on every
third farm in Wisconsin. Estimates
for other leading states are: New
York, $4,000; Illinois, $4,000; Indiana,
&c, 600; Ohio, $4,000; Iowa, 25,O00.

f. 0.P. CONVENTION TO BE IN CHICAGO Windy City Is Chosen in Prefer
 enCe to St. Louis

Washington, Dec. 1.-The repub- lican national committee yesterday selected Chicago and Tuesday, June 8, as the place and time for the na tional convention at which the party s 1920 candidate for president will be nominated
 On the ro1I-call Chicago mustered A votes to nine for St. Louis, whose boosters had made a stubborn fight for the honor. The choice of the convention date was unanimous. Ausbury Park, ". J.. and Cheyenne, Wyo, made bids for the convention, but withdrew before the voting began.
 The committee also authorized the creation of two new departments of party organization to deal respective ly with policies and general party welfare. The former, composed of selected members of the committee and men and women representing labor capital, the farmers and others, will go to work at onie sorting out subjects to be dealt with in the 1920 platform.

 Hays Contribution Plap Appoved
 The plan of Will H. Hays, the na- tional chairman, for limitation of i'm dividual campaign contributions to s1,000 formally was approved and the committee announced some changes in the apportionment of dele gates to the national convention These changes were not of a sweeping nature however and affected only seven states.
 ' After hearing the report of Chair man Hays an dadopting a resolution approving his efforts for party or ganizauon and harmony, the conl- mittee ended it's session and many re- Washington for the gathering left for their homes.
 Of the several hundred prominent republicans who attnded the meeting, however, large number remained fO the session to be held today by the state chairman. Only questions of organzation are expected to come for rnally before this meeting, but the partisans of various republicans men toned for the presidency will con- tinue the active efforts which have kept the capital alive with gossip and conferences since Sunday.

Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi Floods Cause Untold HardShips

Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 11-LSeveral thou sand persons were homeless today and many more out of employment as a result of flooded rivers in Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi Railroad schedules, particularly in lower Ala bama and Mississippi were demoral- ized and property loss was estimated in millions Rivers in the three states had reached their highest stages in many years as a result of the heavy rains of the first part of the week, but generally were receding today.
 Hattiesburg, Miss, was the only city isolated by the waters, although a score of others were partly cut off. It was estimated that 2,500 persons, chiefly negroes, were homeless as a result of floods around Hattiesburg and Meridian.
 Hundreds of other residents of the flooded sections were forced to flee but the loss of life was remarkably small. Two trainmen lost their lives yesterday in Mississippi in wrecks due

Loss of Appetite

AS general rule there is nothing
serious about loss of appetite, and if
you skip meal or only eat two meals
day for few days you will soon
have relish for your meals when
meal time comes. Bear in mind that
at least five hours should always
elapse between meals so as to give
the food ample time to digest and the
stomach a period of rest before sec
ond meal is taken. Then if you eat no
more than you crave and take rea-
sonable amount of outdoor exercise
every day you will not need to worry
about your appetite. When the loss
of appetite is caused by constipation
as is often the case, that should be
corrected at once. A dose of Cham
berlain's tablets will do it.

Oscar H. Dasch, late of Montana
has purchased from Carl Porter,
cashier of the Bank of Juliaetta, a
residence and three lots on Main
street for a cash consideration of
$1,000. Mr.. Dasch formerly resided
here, and after trying Montana came

The Juliaetta cannery has about
completed the seasons run on cher
ries, of which there was yield of
about 40 per cent. of normal crop.
There is a good prospect at this
time for good yield of both tomatoes
and melons at Juliaetta this season.
Apricots are now on the Juliaetta
market and there is a heavy yield of
that popular fruit.

grapes and lemon juice, combined
with lithia, and has been used for
generations to flush and simulate
clogged kidneys; to neutralize the
acids in the urine so it no longer is a
source of irritation, thus ending blad-

Such is the voice of gasoline raised

ponds upon it.
The storage battery is the soul of
the Liberty Motor. AS gasoline is it's

The Willard Storage Battery Com
pany in Cleveland had for years been
storage batteries for starting,
and ignition on automobiles
When Uncle Sam decided he would
take no more nonsense" from the
Kaiser, the Willard Organization was
asked to design storage battery for
ignition in an aircraft motor.
The first difficulties faced were the
necessary limitations on size and
weight, as Uncle Sans specifications
called for battery of certain capac-
ty weighing not more than 10 pounds |
Any motorist who has tried to lift his
storage battery, knows what it weighs !
Lead, the very name sounds heavy,
makes up most of the storage battery, /
md 10 pounds of lead is not very
much. The Willard engineers set to
work and designed a battery of the
proper capacity, weighing but 10
ounds and two ounces, which was sat-
to the government designers
But size and weight were not the
My obstacles. An automobile prop
rly driven stays on its wheels and
here is no danger of the acid contents
f the battery spilling out. But Lib

nd the Willard engineers found that
1ey must design a battery which,
lille open at the top, did not spill its
ontents when inverted This sounds
ather difficult, and it was, but it was
one just the same. Within 10 days
ON the receipt of the governments
notifications, the Willard Engineers
