Not a Bite Of
Breakfast Until
You Drink Water
SAys . olsss Of hot water and
phosphate prevents illness
and keeps US At.

Just as coal, when it burns, leaves
behind incombustible ashes, so the
food and drink taken day after day
leaves in the alimentary canal indi-
gestible material, which if not COM
pletely eliminated from the system
each day becomes food for the mil
lions of bacteria which infest the
bowels. From this mass of leftover
waste, toxins and ptomainelike poi
sons are formed and sucked into the
blood.
Men and women who can't get feel
ing right must begin to take inside
baths. Before breakfast each morn
ing dring a glass of hot water with
teaspoonful of limestone phosphate
in it to wash out of the bowels the
previous days poisons and toxins and
to keep the entire alimentary canal
clean, pure and fresh.
Those who are subject to sick head
ache, colds, biliousness, constipation,
others who wake up with bad taste,
foul breath, backache rheumatic stiff
ness, or have a sour, gassy stomach
after meals, are urged to get quart
er pound of limestone phosphate from
the drug store, and begin practicing
internal sanitation. This will cost
very little, but is sufficient to make
anyone an enthusiast on the subject.

CHURCH
DRIVE PROGRESSES
IDAHO AWAKE TO THE GREAT
WORK NOW GOING FOR
WARD IN NATION

The great movement known as the
nation wide campaign is stirring the
life of the Episcopal church through
out this country. There is hardly a
journal of any size in any town of
the United States that is not putting
conspicuously before it's readers this
new birth in efficiency and consecra-
ton. In the last few years, every
man, woman and child in America
has felt a new pride in America
Every one has worked and sacrificed
and given in a common cause. Never
in the history of the country has
there been SO much loyal devotion
expressed by it's citizenship. Now
the religious life of America is aim
ing to capitalize all this patriotism
in terms of religious devotion and ser
vice. In this mighty enterprise, the
Episcopal church is having a very
real part.
At the general convention of the
Episcopal church held in Detroit in
October, 1919, the church in conven-
ment SO enthusiastically that every
were nearly 1000 of them, went back
and towns as messengers of1this new
idea that the church could be as mill
tant and patriotic and as serviceable
complete that in no diocese of the
United States is there any haphazard

Laymen are being pressed into serv-

churches in the interest of the King
dom of God just as. they were in
the interest of the Red Cross and the |
Liberty Loan year or two ago. This
is a lawman's movement The clergy !
have endorsed it but the laymen are
doing the work. It is an attempt to |
utilize the strength to meet the prob |
lens and to realize the opportunities |
Of the Episcopal church. !
About year ago an office was set
up in New York City and a most
efficient organization began it's
work. Then into the general budget
prepared at the central office, went
the amounts needed for missionary
activities, the work of religious ed
ucation, and the work of social serv-
ice. The campaign is going on en-
over this country that
leaders are sanguine that the amount
asked for, which goes up into many
millions of dollars, will be over sub
scribed and that as a result of this
of education, there will be
hundreds and thousands of new work
ers in the ranks of the church. Mr..
Louis B. Franklin, the director of
i've liberty loan campaigns, is active
y at work in the direction of this
ampaign. This fact alone encourages
hose who are undertaking the enter
rise to believe that it is to be a
arge success.
This spirit of adventure has struck
IDAHO and the men and women of the
Episcopal church in Idaho are en-
entering into this move
nent. The details have been worked
ut by the church leaders, and in
ONE cases the parish priests have so
reused their flocks that already the
mount asked for has been over sub
cribed. When all the returns are in,
is felt by those in charge that the
Diocese of Idaho will have a most
onorable place in the Episcopal

GROW MORE SUGAR BETS

KEYNOTE OF PROSPERITY

The Steelville, Mo-, Mirror writes an
editorial that has more boiled down, hard
headed common sense than we have seen
in many day:
Lumber mills out on the Pacific coast
are closing down because Of shortage of
cars for shipment of the product. Now
think what follows Because the men are
thrown out of employment, their wages
are cut off and they cannot buy as freely
as usual of food and clothing and luxur-
les. Because the lumb0' is not available
to builders construction work must be cut
down, carpetndrs and other workmen are
thrown out of work and their wages cut
off, with consequent limitation of buying.
Every cessation for work has bad influ-
ence both direct ad indirect, whatever the
cause. The steel stroke threw many be-
sides the strikers out of employment. The
coal strike stopped many an industry
Increased purchases Of foreign goods in
1914 threw corresponding number of
American workmen out of jobs, with a
long train of demoralizing effects which
would have been disastrous if the out
break of the war had not cut off imports
and provided an abnormal market for our
products. Continuous employment in USE
full idustry is the only key to pNranent
prosperity for all. For the want Of cars
many man is idle, and yet the railroad
administration claims that it has kept up
the equipment of the railroads.

WHY NOT WORK TOGETHER?

Recently there have been meetings of
sugar beet growers and beet sugar manu-
facturers in western beet sugar centers
such as Denver and Salt Lake.
There has been great deal Of loose
talk from different sources about the
price of sugar.
1t would appear that some persons
would be glad to lead the public to believe
that crime has been committed in allow
ing the beet sugar industry to develop and
actually prosper the last yea OF two.
The long struggle of twenty years when
sugar beet growing and manufacture was
in the governmental and nonprofitable
period, is lost sight Of.
SugsIr beet growing and sugar manu-
facture must exist together.
The manufacturer is interested in pay
ing the grower the highest possible price
to increase production. The grower is in
terested in prosperous fatory that can
take his beets.
Both, however, must meet world COM
petition in sugar and both must work to-
gethtr to this end
Even though the farmers owned the
factories as some persons agitate, they
could not pay themselves greater price
for beets than would allow the factory to
meet outside competition.
Sugar manufacture now has a good
start here in the west and the growers
and manufacturers must work in close
harmony for their own self protection.

THE BANKER

Politicians are free to make capital
by denouncing bankers land too many of
the rest of us have been all too willing to
agfee with the politician, says the Clovis,
N. M. Journal
There is in no community man who
does more for that community and takes
little out Of it as the banker. You are
in doubt as to the money affairs, may be
you stand to lose several thousand dollars
in transaction land you consult bank
err He sits down with you and gives YOU
freely Of the time that is worth good
money to him. He gives you the benefit of
counsl that he has been years in learning
and you depart on your way with mere
thank you. And too often you forget be-
fore the end of the week that the banker
did you favor.
The banker has won the respect of his
community simply by playing square with
the public, and by devoting all the time
he can possibly spare to making that COM
munity better and brighter place in
which to live.

EUROPE

LONDON, March 9.-The supreme
council has issued a memorandum
on world economic conditions.
The memorandum makes the fol-
lowing general observations
"The process OF recovery Of Eur
ope cannot be expeG.... py short
cuts OF any description. 1t can be
most seriously hampered by the dis
locatioR, OF production, by strikes,
lockouts and Interruptions Of work Of
all kinds.
The civilization of Europe has. in
deed, been shaken and set back, but
liz is far form being irrerievabiy
ruined by the tremendous struggle
through which she has passed. The
restoration of her vitality now de-
pends on the whole hearted coopera-
ton OF all her children who have 1t
in their own power to delay or accel-
lerate the process OF reconstruction.
1T is. the hope OF every govern
ment that improved conditions Of live
lihood and employment be assured
to workers. Taking the allied coun-
tries as whole the recovery of indus
try has been remarkable Nearlp eigh
teen months have passed since hos
tilities terminated and the reaction
which necessarily followed the tense
strain of war is gradually passing.
The citizens Of every country are once
again resuming their normal occupa-
tons of home life and in their re-
newed labors the conference sees a
clear sign of renewed prosperity"
The memorandum reviews condi-
tons in Europe at length
1t estimates the increased cost of
living in the United States at 1870
per cent; Great Britain 10; and
France, Italy and Belgium at 800
per cent.
1t estimates the men under arms
in Russia at 100000. Poland Ru-

ian empire at 100000.

AN OLD time
TIMBER DRIVE
Its Fun and Dangers
Settlers Race
With Death

In our article on flowers and ap-
pies in the last issue we spoke OF q
timber drive, and some of our read
ers wanted to know what it is or
was. 1t was a method they had for
knocking trees down with other
trees, to save part of the chopping.
A settler would start his clearing
in the woods to make a farm, and
he had to cut the timber and let it
season till it was dry enough to
burn. Then he would set it afire
and burn it as best he could. If the
timber was thick enough to burn it
all when once the fire was started he
did it that way, but if not, he would
fall several trees together wherever
he could, and burn it in groups.
Sometimes only the leaves and
branches would burn, leaving the
trunks charred and dirty. Then he
would drag them together with oxen
or call in other settlers to help to
carry or roll them together so they
could finish the burning. 1t was a
dirty job and it came to be the GUS
tom to have some liquor on hand to
help 1t along.
Sometimes they would have q
chopping bee and notch a tract of
