Biliousness and Constipation. It is certainly surprising that any wo man will endure the miserable feelings caused by biliousness and constipation, when relief is so easily had and at so little expense. Mrs. Chas. Peck, Gates, N. Y., writes: "About a year ago I used two bottles of Chamberlain 's Tablets and they cured me of biliousness and constipation. ' '—Obtainable everywhere For sale by all dealers.—Adv. DR. W. E.

A copy of each issue of every newspaper containing their advertise ments is sent to the office of the Cham berlain Medicine company as a proof of the insertion of the advertisement. Some of the papers bear names of places, which require one to recall forgotten geography or refer to the atlas to locate. Some of them are particularly curious as they are published in the vernacular or native languages which might be liken to the carefully written notes of a short hand writer. Her* are the well known Chinese characters arranged in vertical lines reading from top to bottom, the lines arranged from right to left. The Burmese language, as printed, is composed principally of a combination of circles. Some one wittily suggested that for this reason circulars would be properly printed in this language. Cingalese, the language of Ceylon, is also curvilinear. Javanese and Siamese are composed Jargely of vertical lines connected by loops at either top or bot tom but rarely at both. These languages bear some resemblance to the vertical writing now practiced in our public schools. The four hundred million people of India have nearly fifty different dia lects or vernaculars. The Chamberlain Medicine company advertises in ten of the principal ones as follows: Bengali, Gujurathi, Hindi, Kanarese, Malayalam Marathi, Sindhi, Tamil, Telegu and Urdu. The Sindhi and Urdu are writ ten from right to left in the Hebrew fashion. The Urdu is a sort of script and is so chaotic in shape that it is im possible to reduce it to the movable type form. Papers printed in the Urdu language are therefore written out by hand and a plate made by the litho graph process. The "Oudh Akhbar,'' à sixteen page daily published at Luck now in this language claims a circula tion of aboat 5000. It is said that in order te handle this circulation it re quires an office force of about 200. For tunately for the management, the wages paid to natives are only a few cents a day. Tin- Chamberlain Medicine company j advertises in papers printed in thirty-* | I two languages. Besides the vernaculars : land the well known European languages, '•'rench, Spanish, Portugese, Dutch, j' en ian, etc., the list embraces a mini ! ber of languages which until compara tively recent times possessed no alpha bet but for which the Roman alphabet lias been adopted. Among these arc the native Hawaiian, Samoan, Tagalog Philippine Islands), Kaffir, Zulu and Basuto, of South Africa. There is also a modern form of the Malay language using Roman characters, known as Ro manized Malay. This is used in Java and the East Indies. It is difficult to conceive how the readers of some of the papers manage to handle them. Imagine a man on a crowded street car trying to read a paper whose pages are thirty-eight in ches long and twenty-nine inches wide. This is the size of the "Hitaddbi," a Bengali weekly published in Calcutta, India. Some of the English dailies pub lished in South Africa, are almost as unwieldy, the pages of one measuring twenty-seven and one-lialf inches in length and twenty-five inches in width. To an American newspaper man it is interesting to note the manner in which the colonial English newspapers are made up. They still ding to the me thods which were practiced in this country fifty years ago, the advertise ments being upon the first few pages, followed generally by the heavy editor ials, then a few meager cable and tele graphic items, afterwards the local news. The local news consists princip ally of tlie proceedings of the legisla tive bodies, town council, school board, etc. Contributions by the readers are numerous and lengthy. The editorials are generally of a more dignified and serious nature than Amer ican productions. The daily newspapers devote more space to book reviews aud detailed reports of scientific progress than American newspapers do. Humor is not so noticeable and cartoons are used more rarely than with us. \ ery few, if any, of the colonial pa pers issue a "pink sheet,'' but they supply this omission by devoting a large proportion of every issue to the sporting news. This is especially no ticeable in the African papers. With few exceptions the advertising pages would give our "ad" writers the nightmare. They seem to have little conception of the value of space or of attractive methods of presenting either the text or the illustrations. A pleasing relief to this monotony is afforded bv the "ads" of American advertisers which are rather numerous on their pages. FOR SALE—Two good houses at Arco.

POTATO SHIPMENTS WILL BE RESUMED | : The Southern Idaho Potato Produc ers, association held a meeting at Poca tello this week and sent instructions to all members including many in the Boise valley to resume the digging of potatoes. Due to the immature condi tion of potatoes the association ceased shipment of them from the State last month and none of the crop has moved since. At the present time the market is considered fair and is around 70 cents per hundred f. o. b. at the loading sta- v tion. At the meeting of the represen tatives it was estimated that the crop of this season in Idaho would fall ap proximately 1000 cars short of that of last year, due to a large extent to a smaller acreage and partially to dis eased tubers. The latter difficulty effects the terri tory in the vicinity of Idaho Falls. The Twin Falls section has a decrease in acreage, the Blackfoot country will be about 200 cars short beoause of small acreage combined with light yield, and at Aberdeen the crop will reach only about 50 per cent of normal because of the shortage of water supply. The southern markets have been later than usual this year on account ef the heavy rains in the middle west which delayed the crops there. Another matter taken up at the meet ing was grading and much stress was laid upon this point. All the raisers have been urged to be careful in that particular and to enforce the regula tions a man will be put into the field beginning on the fifteenth of this month. 8ICK BABIES ' ' My baby 's sick. What shall I do?" That's a very common question from mothers, particularly at this time of year. It is a very important question, too, and one that is hard to answer fully. In general the chances are more than ten to one that the trouble is from some digestive disturbance. For this reason it is always advisable to stop feeding the baby at once. He won't starve if lie misses a few meals or even if bis rations are shut off or greatly re duced for several days. Of course, the baby should be given all the water he cares for and that will be a consider bub: uid i either. All should bp ed cool, but JVv a sick baby id supply is to :iH fermenting. able quantity this drinking water for boiled, then bottled net iced. The rt'ext thing tc after stopping the ?nipty the intestines of : decomposing food. In gene va 1 the mother will be mstified ill using not wer a teaspoon ml of castor oil or sim ple envmns by injection. If this does not bring relief the next step would be to call in the best physician available, and place the case fully in his hands. As with many other health matters, prevention is much simpler, cheaper and better than cure. In rtio case of babies, the use of mothers' milk as food is the first item to be considered. In summer the baby should be kept cool, clean and free from flies. Babies should live in the fresh air at all times, and carefully screened from mosquitoes. THE COUNTRY EDITORIAL Many editors of small papers refuse to give their readers editorials on the ground that editorials are for the large city papers and the public does not care for the views of the country editor. As a matter of fact, the views of the rural population are really reflected by the editorials of the large city papers •which glean them from the country pa pers which run editorials. The sound thought of the country is to be found in the rural disttttts. Here, in the more or less quievof the country, men and women read and study and gather data which results in conclusions found ed on a solid basis. Sometimes this thought may be biased by the enthusi asm aroused by the impractical reformer or selfish politician who runs off at a tangent with some new rad or "ism," but generally such fads are short lived and the sensible thinker of tiie country districts returns to the sane and solid and conservative attitude which has al ways distinguished him. The editor of the country paper, therefore, has a duty to perform in crystallizing this thought and sending it out to the world as the contribution of his section of the coun try to the agitation of the day. Tho country editor, usually is a compara tively poor man, but lie lias sand and in dependence and a pride of work rarely found in other professions. Moreover, he is brought into closer personal touch with his constituency than the editor of the big city paper. It is safe to say that never before in the history of journal ism have editorials been more widely or more carefully read, not, perhaps, as in the old days to base an opinion on the views of tiie editor, but for the purpose of getting all sides of every question.

THRIFT One of the most important confer ences at the Congress of Education in San Francisco was that dealing with thrift. Attention was called to the need of the American developing in dividual and community saving of waste material and waste time. If every citi zen of Idaho could observe the principle that his expenses each week, each month and each year, should be some what less than his income, presuming that lie has an income adequate to meet the needs of his particular'social rela tions and provide some savings fund, there would be a very decided advance in the economic situation throughout this entire state. If the farmer in Idaho could be per suaded to form a budget or estimate of yearly expenses for bis farm and for his household and if he would adopt some simple but reliable system of ac counting for farm and family expenses, it would assist greatly in arriving at the proper basis of saving and accumu lating. In addition to the general prac tice of making budgets and following an accounting system, each farmer would profit greatly if he would adhere to a resolution never to purchase any machinery which was not absolutely needed so long as the older machinery could be repaired and used economically. It was the opinion of this eongress, and there were able authorities in attend ance, that practice of this sort would ehange the entire financial situation with many who are now paying prohibi tory interest rates. A study and prac tice of these suggestions is recommend ed by the University of Idaho in the firm belief that the practice of such principles would be of inestimable value to all agricultural interests of this great state.

Berryman's Hardware 446D THE VALUE OF GRAZING ON OUR NATIONAL FORESTS The revenues derived from our na tional forests come in almost equal pro portions from the sale of grazing privi leges and the sale of timber. This is clearly shown by the report of the Chief Forester for the year ending June, 1915. This report shows receipts from timber sales amounting to $1,164,000, and from grazing amounting to $1,125,000. Idaho has extensive areas of rough mountain land well adapted for grazing purposes. This is most eagerly sought for by sheep and cattle men who find the handling of stock on the national forests in the State a lucrative business. In former years much rivalry existed between them for the possession of this range. At the present time this has practically disappeared owing to the use of the allotment system by means of which each stockman is given a definite area aud trespassers are kept off. The range is also much better than when it was overgrazed by competing bands of stock and the cattle and sheep are in better condition. No one who has sec-n tiie range under the old conditions of strife and ill-feeling and hlso ob served the peaceful aud orderly conduct of the present thrifty range business can doubt the wisdom of those respon sible for the change. When we consider that the price of meat is constantly rising, due to the decreasing supply, and that our popula tion is rapidly increasing we are made to realize the great vaine of these mountain lands to the people of Idaho for they furnish a permanent and pro fitable means of meat production on a largo scale.
