Mrs. William Stuart, of Carus, is
recovering from a severe attack of ap
pendicitis. At first it was thought
that it would be necessary for the pa
tient to undergo an operation but now
the doctors report that the case has
so developed that this will probably
not be required.
Few presents give as great and so
lasting a pleasure as books, and noth
ing that gives so much costs so little.
If you are looking for inexpensive but
attractive Christmas present, give
books. Our stock is overflowing with
good books at prices from 25c up.

THE BLOUSE COAT COMBINES THE
.PICTURESQUE WITH THE PRACTICAL
The plain little dress is altogether
too becoming and practical to be re
placed by draperies entirely. The
draped models are smart and attractive
and more appropriate for many occa
sions than the plain, but for a shop
ping trip or a motor ride it is a joy to
slip into a well cut little dress of serge,
ratine or cloth relieved perhaps by a
girdle or sash of brightly colored silk.
Leaving out the blues dark, navy and
Nattier, which are always good style
there are many other attractive colors
this season, amors them mahogany,
terra cotta and tete de negre brown.
8051 is of duvetyn In this new dark
brown. The sash has a blending of
brown and terra cotta, which is highly
effective. The pockets on either side
are a particularly new touch, and the
collar is another.

DRINK MORE WATER
IF KIDNEYS BOTHER
Eat leu meat and take Salts for Back
ache or Bladder trouble
Neutralizes acids.
Uric acid in meat excites the kidneys,
they become overworked; get sluggish,
ache, and feel like lumps of lead. The
urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irri
tated, and you may be obliged to seek re
lief two or three times during the night.
When the kidneys clog you must help
them flush off the body's urinous waste
or you'll be a Teal sick person shortly.
At first you feel a dull misery in the kid
ney region, you suffer from backache,
sick headache, dizziness, stomach gets
sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu
matic twinges when the weather is bad.
Eat less meat, drink lots of water;
also get from any pharmacist four ounces
of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful
in a glass of water before breakfast
for a few days and your kidneys will
then act fine. This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been used
for generations to clean clogged kidneys
and stimulate them to normal activity,
also to neutralize the acids in urine, so
it no longer is a source of irritation,
thus ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, cannot in
jure; makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everyone should
take now and then to keep the kidneys
clean and active. Druggists here say
they sell lots of Jad Salts to folks who
believe in overcoming kidney trouble
while it is only trouble.

a voyage this' part Is pumped full of
water and Is really a huge water cushion.-

shocks, which, if applied only to one
portion of the ship's bottom, would
loosen the rivets and sink the ship.

When Enraged They Are Apt to Tear
Their Victims to Pieces.
"An elephant uses several 'original
and effective methods of exterminating
its victims." it may "rush upon a man,
seize him in Its trunk, beat bim to
death on the ground and before leav
ing tear up the foliage for yards about
There are many instances of ele
phants literally tearing their victims
to pieces. The story is told of an Eng
lish official in Uganda who on noticing
a "safari" passing stepped to the door
to inquire of the head man the where
abouts of his master.1 In response the
black swung a human arm before the
official and replied that a few days
previous his master bad been torn to
pieces by an elephant and that he had
brought back the arm In proof of his
assertion.'
Then again aster knocking a man
down an elephant will often continue ;
on its course without stopping to learn
how' much damage it has done. A
hunter who was within close proximity
of a herd of elephants banded his rifle
to the gun bearer and started to climb
a tree to look aboat At that moment
an elephant cba-ged from the tall
grass and made for the gun bearer.
As the man started to run he threw up
his arms, and In some manner the ele
phant h) reaching: for him snatched
the rifle from his hand and stopped to
hammer it on the ground, while the
black made good his escape. J.-Alden

"A Very Monstrous Great 8hip.''
In her "Life of James IV," Miss I.
A. Taylor says that James was untir
ing in bis efforts toward the realiza
tion of a good Scottish fleet In 1511
the building of the St Michael, "a
very monstrous great ship." was com
pleted. "All he woods in Fife, save
one. had been laid waste to build her,"
and material was also imported from
Norway. : According to Lindsay, this
wonder ship, which was 240 feet long
and 36 broad, "cumbered all Scotland
to get her to the sea." Her sides were
ten feet thick within walls of oak.
and she cost the king, all told, some
40.000. He paid her daily visits when
she lay in the roads, oftenCdinlng and
supping on board, and exhibiting hei
to the lords and ladies he brought
with him. Henry VIII. was covetous
of her, but when the singular request
was preferred that James "would
grant Henry the loan of the apple of
his eye. the great St. Michael, the
king's reply was to the effect that If
he would make peace with France he
might command all his ships." Six
months after their king's death the
Scottish government sold this desirable
ship to Louis XII.
A Mystery of Diplomacy.
Of disappearances, most mysterious
was the case of Benjamin Bathurst
who vanished on Nov. 25. 1809. while
engaged on a secret mission for the
British foreign office. Vienna was the
young diplomatist's objective and.
with a friend and valet in a post
chaise. Perleuerg, a small posting
town in North Germany, had been
reached. Here Bathurst supped and
slept, awaiting the arrival of fresh
horses. Waking, he asked if the horses
were ready and passed out of the inn
door to make inquiries. Eight people
saw him go out but none ever set eyes
on bim again. Various theories were
set afoot Napoleon's spies, robbers,
illness. About three years ago, in the
forest near Perleberg, a skeleton was
discovered with a hole in the skull as
from a heavy blunt instrument Was
it that of "the English lord," as Perle
berg people surmised? London Tatler.
The Illegible Writer.
A protest which Michelangelo once
made to his nephew against bis send
ing letters in illegible handwriting will
arouse a great deal of sympathy in the
breast of modern sufferers from the
same form of rudeness." It is contain
ed in a letter given in the "Life of
Michelangelo."
"I never receive a letter from you
without being thrown into a fever be
fore I can read it I am at a loss to
know where you learnt how to write!
Little love here! I believe if yon had
to write to the biggest ass in the world
you would take greater care. I threw
your last letter into the fire because
I could not read it 1 cannot therefore
reply. I have already told you, and
constantly repeated, that every time
I get a letter from you fever attacks
me before I succeed in reading it"
Insurance and Assurance.
They were talking, the little group
of agents, about the words insurance
and assurance, some claiming tbat the
first and some that the second was the
better word to use.
But with a scornful laugh a Boston
agent in gold rimmed spectacles said:
"You are all very Ignorant Insur
ance is no better and no worse than
assurance. Each has a special signifi
cance, and each is equally good in its
place. The place for assurance is
where precaution is- taken against a
certainty against, that is. death. Life
assurance, we should say if we spoke
with perfect correctness. The place for
insurance is where precaution is taken
against an uncertainty, such as fire,
shipwreck, burglary. Fire insurance,
marine insurance, we sbould say."

When Macaulay Was a Boy.
At one period of bis boyhood Macau
lay's fancy was much exercised by the
threats and terrors of the law. He
had a little plot of ground at the back

maid one day threw away, as rubbish.
He went straight to the drawing room,

Chum Saved Himself.
A little dog. unlicensed, had been
found in the streets aod taken to the
pound. He vras an affectionate ani
mal and greatly endeared himself to
all about the place. They called him
Chum, and he Joyfully responded
whenever his name was spoken. As
the days passed, other poor, homeless
dogs were put to death. Finally came
Chum's last day of grace, and no one
bad come to claim him. The next
morning dawned, and the man who
was to kill Chum called him into the
yard. Chum danced and wagged his
tail, no doubt thinking something good
was in store for him. The man then
said: "Well. Chummy; your time has
come. You'd better say your pray
ers." Immediately the little forepaws
were crossed, the .little head bowed,
and Chum said his prayers. As the
little body was still in this attitude of
reverence a step was heard. The at
tendant looked up and saw the super
intendent standing there. There were
tears in the eyes of each. Chum is
still living, but instead of being no
body's dog he is now everybody's. St
Louis Republic.
Proved His Profession.
In "Pierre Garat Singer and Ex
quisite." is this story of the Parisian
favorite: Out alone one evening in 1792
Garat was arrested by a patrol of na
tional guards because be was unable
to produce bis card of citizenship, as
decreed by the convention. And so he,
Garat, "whose larynx was said to be
a whole opera," was taken to the sec
tion bouse, and the officer in command
began bis interrogation as follows:
"Your profession?" "I sing." "That"
retorted the officer, "is not a profes
sion. 1 also sing." "Possibly," drawl
ed our hero, "but I sing better than
you. The case is not the same." "Oh!
Sou will have to prove that!" Garat
always fond of an innocent coup de
theatre, immediately attacked one of
the most florid romances of his reper
toirea thing of trills, roulades and
"dying fails," a performance so aston
ishing in that grimy guardhouse tbat
his captors not only released bim, but
escorted him home in triumph.
' A Novelty In Strikes.
The management of a traveling the
atrical company demanded 2 shillings
for admission. The visitors did not
propose to pay more than 1 shilling
and after a hasty consultation outside
the entrance formed a "theater goers'
union." Pickets were stationed, and
within a few minutes 278 people
practically all who were there had
agreed not to pay the 2 shillings.
The manager appeared at the door
way and refused to make the required
reduction.
"I'll give ,v...i till I count twenty.
said the newly elected president of the
new union, "and after that our price
will be sixpence instead of 1 shilling.
He counted slowly to nine, and then
the manager capitulated.
The strike was declared nt an end.
the quondam strikers trooped into the
hall, and the union was dissolved after
an existence of about twenty minutes.

The Eskimo Mind.
The difficulty of conveying the true
idea of Christianity to the Eskimo
mind is related by Vilhjalmur Stefans
son: "Now. it seems that In Kotsebue
sound, where the Christian doctrines of
the Colville people had originated, fish
ing is by nets only. As fishing is prac
tically the only work done there the
missionary had probably said to them,
Do not put out your fish nets on Sun
day,' meaning thereby 'Do not work
on Sunday.' However that may be.
the prohibition came to our community
In the form 'God has said you must
not use fish nets on Sunday.' Accord
ingly the entire community pulled
their fish nets out of the river Satur
day night fished with hooks all day
Sunday and put the nets back into th
water Monday morning."

HOG KEY TO PT
FAMINE OF COUNTRY
(Western Stock Journal.)
There has been considerable warn

government officials who have made a
Study of the SUDDlv and ripmnnrl nf
the meat question in th's country un-
ucr me ueuei mat we were lacing a
fchortage in the supply to meet the de
mand. . . -
That owing to the rapid increase of
the population and the decrease of the
meat producing animals of the United
States, were approaching a very crit
ical period. -'
Furthermore the fencing up the free
range on government lands, compell
ing the ranch men to reduce or sell
off their entire herds of cattle with the
increase of tho population is like a
two-edged sword on the meat question
cutting down the supply and increas
ing tne demand.
This necessitates the farmer in mak
ing a greater effort to build up his soil
to grow the steer and to enlarge hia
herds of swine.
The hog has the advantage in many
way of proving himself the key to the
meat supply. He annually increases
from 500 to a possible 1500 per cent;
whereas the steer and sheep are from
60 to a possible 80 per cent. While
the hog is ready for market in six or
eight months, the steer requires two
years. The hog again is a gleaner and
saver by using the by-products of the
creamery, of the beet factory and of
the 'wflRtP frnm f ha tollln Imnwn a

garbage m cities. No other animal
will gather the mast or glean the grain
in the fields or the fallen fruit of the
orchard.
Again he will make twice the num
ber of pounds of meat from a bushel
of corn or grain that the steer will.
This is starting up a fresh impetus
from the country for hog growing. The
South, the West and the Northwest .
are taking from the corn and hog belt
and producing pork in many instances
much cheaper than it can be made in
the corn states. Again we see that
the cities all over the country aro
establishing for the feeding of gar
bage which is gathered up, assorted,
cooked and fed, maintaining large
numbers of hogs from what has here
tofore been very largely waste.
The experts of the Department of
Agriculture are studying the situation

of the trouble and suggest the remedy.
They have just issued a bulletin ad
vocating increased hog production ofl
the irrigated farms of the West, that
pork production be made an adjunct
to the creamery wherever conditions
permit. They state that the irrigation
farmers have a splendid opportunity
for the profitable production of pork
of the high quality. Pigs, they state,
can be raised at a minimum cost on
alfalfa and then be finished on grain
such as barley and peas. A brood
sow can be wintered on alfalfa hay and
a few sugar beets daily without corn.
They also are favoring the "Boys' Pig

In old countries where the popula
tion is dense the mass of the people
are deprived of meat. They have to
take into consideration that it takes
from three to six pounds of grain to
make one pound of meat that the lab
oring people especially are compelled
to use the grain as human food rather
than having it transformed into a more
concentrated- form at an expense or
loss in quantity; In other words there
is more food for the human in eating
the greater pounds of grain than in
the lesser pounds of meat.
For this cause it brings the hog into
the forefront as the meat key for the
mass of people because of his econom
ical nature and because of his prolif
icacy in production and quickness of.
development and because he is the
greatest uroducer of meat from Dounds
of grain than can be found in the ani
mal kingdom.
Again it requires perhaps less cost
in housing him and handling him for
the quantity of meat produced by him
than any other animal. He is therefor
not only the key but a bunch of keys
to keep the meat situation unlocked
and furnished. American Swineherd.
