By formal agreement the de fendant will refuse to take out the license, will be technically arrested and argument on the case will be made in the courts.

It is said he Is suffering from diabetes. Forest fires in southern Idaho have been doing serious damage, but the forest service has succeeded in holding the flames within bounds after a hard fight. The season has been exception ally dry and the timber is In a danger ous condition for fires. The long dry pell bas worked serious damage to dry farm crops also. The first firea were on Ruby creek, on the south fork of the Payette river within the Payette forest reserve. Later they were dis covered on Harris and Clear creeks in the Boise basin countrj-. There will be erected in this city this year a suitable memorial out of rexpect and In honor of the memory of the late Bishop Kunstcn of the Episco pal church of Idaho, a SJOO.OOO addi tion to St. Luke's hospital to be dedi cated to him. A decision to erect the memorial was made at a meeting this week of the Woman's auxiliary for the state. They arrived at the con tusion when it was explained that the late bishop's ambition was to enlarge the hospital which he founded and for the success of which he worked for many years.

Franklin and Oneida counties' good road advocates were praised for their enthusiastic support of better roads. in a recent Issue of this paper an nouncement was made that Tanlac now I has the largest sale of any medicine of I its Kind in the world, and that more than twelve million bottles had been sold during the past four years. These are unusual figures, and the I question naturally arises in the mind of the reader why this phenomenal suc cess and wny has this preparation so I far outstripped all other medicines of I Its kind? It is only natural therefore that the manufacturers should offer I some explanation to satisfy public in terest. in the first place, Tanlae Is manu factured in one of the largest and most I modernly equipped laboratories in this I country. Its formula is purely ethical and complies with all national and state I pure food and drug laws. Altogether there are ten ingredients in Tanlac, I each of which is of recognized thera-1 peutlc value. Many of these Ingredients have been I individually known and used since civ-I luxation first began, and some of them I have been used and prescribed by lead ing physicians everywhere, but until they were brought together in proper proportion and association as In the Tanlac formula, humanity had not heretofore realized their fflll value and effect. In referring to one of the more Im portant Ingredients of Tanlac, the En cyclopedia Britannica says: "'It has long! Deen the source or the most valuable tonic medicines that have ever been discovered." In referring to others of I the general tonic drugs contained in Tanlac the 13th edition of Potter's Therapeutics, a standard medical text book, states that "they impart general tone and strength to the entire sys- I teni. Including ail organs and tissues. This same well-known authority. In describing the physiological action of still another of the ingredients of Tan lac which is of value in treating what I is commonly known as "a run-down condition," uses the following expres sion: "It Is highly esteemed in loss of I appetite during convalescence from I acute diseases." - There are certain other elements In I Tanlac which because of their Influence I upon the appetite, digestion, assiraila- I tion and elimination improve the nutri tion and vital activity of all the tissues and organs of the body, and produce I that stete of general tonicity which is called health. In discussing another ingredient the I Encyclopaedia Britannica says: "It is one of the most efficient of that class of substances which act upon the stomach so as to invigorate digestion and there by Increase the general nutrition. It is used In dyspepsia, chlorosis, anemia and I various other diseases in which the tone of the stomach and alimentary canal is deficient." Concerning still an- I other Ingredient this same standard I authority says: "It causes dilation of I the g'astric blood vessels, increases se cretion of the gastric juice and causes greater activity in the movements of the muscular layers in the walls of the stomach. It also tends to lessen the sensibility of the stomach and so may I relieve gastric pain." The United States dispensatory makes the following comment regarding an other Ingredient: "It may be used in I all cases of pure debility of the digest- I ive organs or where a general tonto Im pression Is required. Dyspepsia, atonic gout, bysteria and Intermittent fever I are among the many affections in which I it has proven useful. There are certain other Ingredients described in the dispensatory and in I other standard medical textbooks as I having a beneficial action upon the or gans of secretion, whose proper func tioning results in the purification of the blood streams passing through them. In this manner objectionable and poisonous ingredients of the blood are removed and the entire system is invigorated and vitalized. Tanlac was designed primarily for I the correction of disorders of the stom ach, liver and bowels. At the same time. however. It is a powerful reconstructive tonic and body builder, for it naturally follows that any medicine that brings about proper assimilation of the food and the thorough elimination of the waste products must therefore have far-reaching and most beneficial effect I upon the 'entire system. Although Tanlac's claims for su premacy are abundantly supported by the world's leading authorities, it is the people themselves who have really made Tanlac what it is. Millions upon mil lions have used it, and have told other millions what it has done for them. That Is why Tanlac has become the real sensation of the drug trade in this f country, and that Is also why It Is the mostly wldely-talked-of medicine in the world today. Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl rrmr fo. Adv. T w. SPOT L D. STILLWELL FEVDS PLACE CAPTAIN EMBREE FELL.

Wash, where the elder Stillwell located the place where the captain met his death. The chamre in the appearance of the country from bunch grass snd sage bruith to cultivated farms made It dif ficult for Mr. Stillwell to locate the place, but in spite of his age he went and down the hill looking for wtarks. me site of the tragedy will be marked with a suitable monument to be erected by the atate historical socl- tr or Washington.

The Bishop of London, Dr. Ingram, with a salary of $50,000. finds that he cannot keep up both of the residences which go with his position, and proposes to rent or sell his town house. The bishop's town house is situated is St. James square, about the most aristocratic area of London. It was once the home of the earl of Warwick and the church bought it some two centuries sgo. The other residence is Fulham palace, which is across the Thames from the suburb of Putney, where tha Oxford Cambridge boat races start. conference that 132.500 of his Income went for income tax, super-tax, muni cipal taxes and insurance. That left him only 817.500 to maintain these two establishments, and to keep a motor, and the minimum of ten servants ab solutely needed for Fulham palace alone. "Ton must see." he said, "it cannot be done. Ton ask your wives. Pessi mists have told me I would aot be able even to keep Fulham palace going. but intend to make a great effort before parting with a historic posses sion of the church for ISO years." Ths bishop is in the same boat with numerous others or the clergy. They are appointed to a position w-ith a cer tain salary, "and living." The "living" is a residence, often larger than they can maintain on the salary, so that it constitutes a liability rather than an asset. Several important church of ficials have closed their houses during the war. snd lived In less expensive quarters. By buying your Suit or Overcoat at FAHEY BROGKMA N'S.

(Spe ciaL) Mark Austin, head agricultur al for the Utah-Idaho Sugar company, after a trip of inspection of the beet fields of the Takima valley, says that the beets are in splendid condition and the crop for the present season will ex ceed all reasonable expectations. The trip was made to ascertain whether or not blight had attacked the beet fields again. Mr. Austin says there is no blight in the Yakima valley this year. General Manager C. N.
