D. GILLILAN. Old Glory in France! What a mighty advance ThiB leader of Liberty takes! ; He strides over seas To the nations whose knees Are bowed to the God of the right Day and night while they fight. ' And the throne of crowned infamy Shakes to its base nt the sight. Old Glory in France! ( At the front; in advance, Waving out the glad word . That the "flag of the free" Frjm the "home of the brave" Crosses ocean's wild wave A redeemer to be! For the peace of the world Is Old Glory unfurled, And forever hailed fast To the head of the mast. Old Glory in France! How the children will dance In La Fayette's land Where the unconquered stand By the red white and blue And the tn-color true In blended communion, A sanctified union; The mother will sing in her jubilant joy For this unified aegis protecting her hoy. Thus we send France our love ' That never grew cold; We send her our gold And we send her our sons; But we send her Old Glory To float o'er her guns. Boise, Idaho, May 1, 1917. Woman's Labor Saver ARCADE This Washer Furnished Free with vlHK WORLD'S RECORD mm imwm (Scciloiml View) R 'f CLOSE SKIMMING- I COM I' LUTE ' CHANGE OF GRAJI TODAY. PRO- Wouldn't it be a pleasure to have the only Separator whoso bowl can bo washed clean, sterilized and dried in less than live minutes? Wouldn't it be a pleasure to have the only Separator that is truly sanitary from top to bottom? Wouldn't it be a pleasure to have the only Separator that retains these qualities after the tenth year, the same as after the first or fifth years ? The mere turning of n crank cleans the U.S. sanitary nickel silver skimmer (found in no other separator) so easy a child can do it. See if you can find such superb cleaning and sanitary equipment in any other Cream S-parator. If you cannot, then buy a U.S. the World's Record close skimmiing separator. N Complete demonstration gladly given. ,W. H. BOHNENKAMP CO. Dealer Today only will witness the regular weekly Hippodrome Vaudeville show at the Arcade. This week's Mil is up to the usual high standard of the Hippodrome acts and consists of 'singing, piano playing and an illusion I act. j Madame Gelli who appears on the Ibill has a mngnifieicnt soprano voice, i She has studied under Carlo Carig- nani, famous as the teacher of Caru I so and was playing an engagement jwith Caruso in Italy when the war ! broke out. Levy and Cooper are two I kids with a world of musical talent. They have a very novel piano and vo cal act which is entirely different and entertaining. They have a lot of comedy too which is amusing. The Hadji Sambolos Chamber of Mys teries who will appear on this week's bill are a headlines presenting a novel offering in black art, reproducing in pantomime tho story of the old man who sells his soul to Mephistopheles to becomo a youth again. The act offers a long list of uncanny feats and puz zling tricks bounds to confuse the most skeptical audience, combining comedy, pathos and artistic posing, liy making chairs, skelotons, etc. ap pear from space and disappear ns abruptly, Prof. Sambalo obtains ef fects of such startling nature that the audience is held spell-bound from start to finish so mystifying and seemingly impossible nre some of the feats that are being accomplished. In addition to the aliovc acts an en- ; tirely new picture will be shown. It ! is a stirring story of tho South when horso mcing was nt its prime. Blue Grass is tho name of the picture and as the film unwinds and the audience is taken through tho different scenes and the big race is run off before your eyes the interest is very intense and ono almost forgets that it is only a strip of film. Jllie first show tonight will begin at 7 o'clock and the second one nt 9 o'clock. Let us print your rann sale bills. Editorial Comment Among other considerations, Root for Russia was an alliterative selec tion with a double meaning.-r Tele gram. 0 Tax It To Death. As soon as an institution becomes useful, we say it is mischievous, and begin legislating and taxing it out of existence. The money thus collected is often worse than wasted; it is used to feed mischief makers and idlers. E. W. Howe's Monthly.

W. H. Bohnenkamp would call your special attention to their advertise ment of the U. S. Cream Separator, They are able and anxious to demonstrate conclusively the features which make this separator superior to any other. The users of the United States Cream Separator comprise the best class of dairymen everywhere. This is shown by the fact that over 150 prizes at the 1916 National Dairy show were won by users of the United States Cream Separator. In fact, the biggest prize winner of all those exhibiting, uses a U. S. Call on agency. Adv. the local PLOUGHING GARDENS I will plow up your garden Rates reasonable. I A. G.
