I Announcement " has been " made through the Observer that the George ' , Palmer Lumber , Co. has decided to place on the market all of their great cut over farming section in the Look ing Glass region. The price per acre .is very reasonable and the terms have both the Canadian Pacific railway and Dominion government terms on land beat immeasurably. The quality of this land is too well t known to local people to need com mendation or description. - It is a land of tame hay, grain and vegetable pro-. ducing qualifications. It is a land Teachers have had more spanking to do than they could possibly handle and their arms have given out The new spanker has been tried Out by Prof. Foulk, of the schools at Hunt ington, West Va., and has-been found to be very satisfactory. .. The spanker is a very simple device, working upon the principle of an elec tric vibrator massage machine. It de livers five short but sharp blows per second. The electric spanker is to revolu tion tie deportment in unruly schools, according to the claims of the invent or. No teacher can have the strength to punish the whole school or half of it in a da and if she gets around to two or three boys, she is doing a! that can be expected, but the electric spanker ' is tireless. However, while it may bring about the physical results-desired the electric wiH never have the psychological effect that the old fashioned spanker had. , The em barrassment of being spanked by the teacher was what hurt the boy. The physical pain she inflicted, amounted to nothing, but the' fact that a woman dragged him. out before .the : whole school and larruped him, hurt . his pride and he remembered the incident for a long,. long time. The electric spanker takes the personal element out of. chastisement ' and makes seem like some new kind of physical culture. . .' PREVENTING INSANITY. Insanity often may be prevented by consulting a doctor in time, said Dr, Alfred I. Noble, superintendent of the Kalamazoo, Michigan hospital. " Many cases of violent insanity nev er would develop if patients overcome the feeline that It is a dim error A to . uleP''e'e rw the man seek treatment for a mental ailment, wno win ouy a reasonable sired tract As a matter of fact mild delusions fre. and move upon it with the determina tion to made a home.

It has been merely delayed and prolonged.

The strain of modem business and society; tends to promote hysteria and "riervousv reactions. : A sensible doctor will tell the man or woman who comes to him in this .stage to alter their mode of living and that then they will be all right Numerous stub- bom cases, of insanity have their be ginning', m the attempt of some to work all the time and to play riot at all. Others' come about through the diss( pation of vital energy caused by try ing to crowd too much amusement into life. Diversion, as ' it : happens, is mighty , good as an occasional tonic, but no good as a steady diet In the institution of which Dr, No ble is the head perhaps the saddest case is that of a woman who went in sane from a combination of hard work and monotony. This represents the other end of the scale.

Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which removes the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal ac tivity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In 24 hours they strain from it 600 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. I Drink lots of water you can't drink too much; also get from any pharma cist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonf ul in a glass of wat er before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys will act fine.
