Don't be put off without a plain answer. The clothier may say'"" You know me; you know I wouldn't sell you anything that wasn't all right;" but that doesn't answer the question. Does it? , If he says "yes," you can't tell, perhaps, whether it is all-wool or not; he may think it is; maybe he doesn't know. There's only one sure way 'of knowing what you're getting 'in clothes this fall, aside from a che mical test of the fabrics; and that way is to buy, goods that are gua ranteed By the maker to be all-wool and all the rest that goes with it. We offer you Hart, Schaffner & Marx's clothes because the makers dare to take a positive ground on the quality question; they don't dodge; they dont keep silent; they are positive in their statement and in their facts.

Cwur d'Alcne, Lcnibl anil Fort Hall Indian Reservations Are Bring Surveyed Preparatory to Being Tli"roui Open to Settlement Flnet Lands in Idaho Are Includ ed In Reservations. No less than threo of the largest In dian reservations in the state of Idaho will be thrown open for settle ment rrobably durlr8 the ntxt vear' or those of the Fort Hall, Lemhi and Coeur d'Alene, according to Informa tion obtained today from Frank Spof ford. examiner of surveys in the sur veyor general's department, who has been making a tour of inspection In the Fort Hall Indian reservation near Poeatello, whore the government has ordered the department to survey and mark out the various townships pre paratory to opening this fine tract of land for settlement, says the Boise Capital News. Mr. Fpofford cannot make this statement definite owing to the fact that it lies entirely within the power of the department to act on the open ing of Indian reservations, but the in dications point to. the fact that the government is anxious to complete the surveys on all these reservations to that they can be opened as soon as possible. Mr. Spofford stated that he found the survey work In the Fort Hall res ervation very satisfactory, and as he was all over the country Included in this reservation, for 30 townships and a fraction, he is In a position to tell tome Interesting facts about the land. The Fort Hall reservation formerly Included The city and township of Poeatello, but both were taken out some time ago. The Blackfoot and Bannock Indi ans once the two fiercest tribes of redskins that roamed the plains of Idaho, own this land, having been confined there for some years past.

The government protects the Indi ans In this segregation of this land by allowing each one, many squaws and children, 80 acres of land which Is held In trust by the government for 25 years, so that It cannot be trans ferred or sold to prospective land Grabbers. Each Indian or family, Is then snp posed' to take care of the land and farm It like the white men. There are a number of Carlisle graduates among both tribes and they are as sistlng their fellows In taking up the art of farming. The Lemhi trive has also been transferred to this reserva tion, where they are also to be al lotted land. At the present time Mr. "Spofford states that an irrigation project is be ing built to irrigate the land In this project, taking water for the same out of the Blackfoot 'river, which flows in a sort of semicircle about the northern boundary of the reservation. This will give the land plenty of wa ter. An analysis of the soil proves that It is the richest to be found in this state and especially adapted to the raising of wheat. Mr. Spofford speaks very enthusiastically of the country and states that It Includes some of the best land he has ever seen. He claims that It is very similar to the Falouse country In richness. Surveys are also being made on the Lemhi reservation which Is lo cated in the central eastern part of Lemhi county and borders on the Montana state line'. The land in-this reservation Is also of a very fine ag ricultural character. The Coeur d'Alene reservation, lo cated In Kootenai county, is one of the largest to be found in the west, and when the survey is completed here and the allotment made to the Indians, who at present hold it, It is proposed to throw It open for settle ment. All of the land In the three reservations will have to be home steaded under the homestead laws. SALT INDUSTRY- IN 11)07. United States Produced Hulk of Com merolal Product.

For tearing out his former sweetheart's tongue be cause she had broken her promise to remain faithful while he earned enough to' support her, a . traveling dentist named Francesco Verganl has been drugged to deuth by a horse to which he was tied by the by-standers who witnessed his vengeance. Verganl, when a youth of 19, fell In love several years ago with Elolse Feruuri, a girl a year his Junior and the daughter of a prosperous farmer of Revlgo province. The girl liked him, but the parents objected that he was too young and too poor to wed. Hoping to make a fortune In America, the young man to.ok passage to New York, after making his sweet heart promise to accept no husband until he returned to claim her, The two took their vows of faithful ness In the village church, repeating together as they concluded, "May I be stricken dumb If I violate the oath I have taken." Fortune was slower In coming to him In America than Verganl had hoped, and It was eight years before he considered himself able to support the woman of his choice In the fash- Ion In which he though she was es titled. He had found employment in tho meantime with an itinerant dentist, who, taking a fancy to the young Ital Ian. finally made him his partner, equipped him with u smattering of dentistry und enabled to accumulate enough to make hlm In Italy, a com paratively rich man. Corresponding through a mutual friend, Verganl had heard regularly from his betrothed during the first six yenrs of his exile." Then the let ters suddenly ceased. The young man was worrltM and anxious but still con fident that the girl remained true to him. Just as he was preparing to return home, however, he learned, a month In Boston, that she had married a well-to-do miller In her native vil lage. His love turned to hatred, Ver ganl hastened at once to Italy, bought one of the stage coaches from which Itinerant dentistry Is practiced In that country and drove to Monncllco, a village near Padua, where he arrived during fair time, gathered a crowd and performed a numberof small operations, meanwhile questioning his patrons regarding his former sweet heart. As he expected, It was not long be fore she and her husband appeared In the group about his booth. Himself unrecognizable In a long beard he wore, he beckoned to the woman, who encouraged by her husband, agreed to a trail of a powder with which he had been polishing the teeth of several of the villagers. Catching up a pair of forceps as she opened her lips, he seized and tore out a large part of her tongue, while the crowd looked on, frozen with horror. Then as the agonized husband dashed forward and caught hisfulnting wife In his arms a rush was made for the coach. The crowd's first instinct was plainly to tear him to pieces. As they tore him "from the coach, however, some one shouted, "Tie him to a horse and let It drag him." The suggestion met with Instant approval. One of,the horses was un fastened from the coach. Verganl was bound to Its tall, and the animal, already frightened and rearing, was lashed into a gallop. The victim of the mob's vengeance was dragged nearly two miles before the runaway aBlmal was stopped. Verganl was then almost beyond recognition, The object of his vengeance will probably not recover. . ie..i i wyrw fzf Ana many oiner pmniui arm JI Crr distressing ailments from '11 11 lcj wnicn most molners suffer C31P Mother's Friend.
