A dream once played its part In a celebrated English criminal case—the “Red Barn Murder’—the memory of which is kept alive by the melodrama still played in country towns. Mrs. Marten, the mother of Marta Marten, the victim, dreamed three successive nights that her daughter had been murdered and buried in the Red Barn, She insisted that the floor should be taken up. This was done and the body of the missing girl was found, and constitut- eda linkin the chain of circumstantial evidence on which the murderer, Wil- liam Corder, was convicted and exe- cuted in August, 1828, Tricks of Watches. Watches are tricky things In peace time, writes a correspondent, and war time seems to have made them trickler than ever.

Crowds of peasants take matters into their own hands |and fight in mobs in the streets and public squares for their rights. But the cause of Democracy and happiness is finally won for | them through the love of their | leader for a little flower of the | forest, a daughter of the poor. The hero must make the su- preme sacrifice, that she may know contentment. And _ his efforts to assure her future wel- fare are the factors which win freedom for his people. KELSO TAKES FALL. Lieutenant Kelso, the aviator | who gave an exhibition of fancy flying in Cottonwood some four weeks ago hada narrow es- cape at Colfax, Wash. where he was flying last Thursday. “Me for the Potato Patch,” remarked Kelso to himself, as the plane with the engine dead started }earthward. Being to near to | the ground to reach his starting | point he headed his plane to the | potato patch and was approach- jing it nicely when one of the |wings caught in a_ telephone | wire, causing the machine to {abruptly change its course and | collided with a pole which was | knocked down. ed but the aviator and his pas-| | senger escaped without any seri- jous injuries. The accident | Was witnessed by Mr. Kelso’s wife. Owing to the fact that the company had two machines on the ground the aviator made another flight the following day. | ATTENTION. |.

[t had from 40 to 50 vegetable ingredi- ents, few of which had any real medic- inal value except opium, and these drugs were blended with honey. lt remained for Nero’s physician, An- dromuchus, to put the finishing touches to this wonderful compound. Andro- machus added viper’s flesh to the for- mula and called his new compound theriaca. He wrote some verses ded- icated to Nero, describing this medi- cine and claiming virtues for it which in our day would subject him to pros- ecution under the anti-trust act. Evi- | dently he believed he had created in | this one compound a veritable pharma- ceutical monopoly. Galen, one of the fathers of medi- cine, went even further. He recom- mended it as a cure for all poisons, bites, headaches, vertigo, deafness, ep- ilepsy, apoplexy, dimness of signt, 108s of voice, asthma, coughs, spitting of blood, tightness of breath, colic, the iliac passion (appendicitis), jaundice, hardening of the spleen, stone, fevers, dropsy, leprosy, melancholy, all pes- tilences. ete. Nowadays he would probably have included coupon thumb, golf shoulder and movie eye. As Galen’s writing dominated med- {cal thought for ever 1,500 years, it is not surprising that this advertise- ment made Mithradatium, or Ther- ica, a valued remedy. Every physl- clan of note for centuries afterward claimed some improvement on the orig- inal formula, MAKE YOUR OWN DECISIONS Foolish Habit of Leaning on Others Is One That Should Be Sternly Repressed. Most people who have succeeded in any direction of activity can trace the measure of their success to the habit | of deciding things for themselves. One | of the greatest temptations we have is to confide in othersS By ylelding to \ It we not only become a nuisance to our friends but keep on lowering our ; own powers of resistance. It is worse than useless to ask the advice of oth- | ers, because they are rarely so much | interested in our troubles as we think they are, or would like them to be. If they were, they would have to know as much about our troubles as we do, to Pass judgment, and this we can not tell them even if we would. Sometimes indeed we may know too much about our own troubles, or in such a way that the continuous | thought of them puts them in the | wrong perspective; but this situation is only made worse by adding the confusion of another’s mind to ours, By deciding everything for yourself you make mistakes; but every mistake | Is a valuable future asset.

The childs eyesight does not develop until several years af- ter the usual school age, there- fore every safeguard should be taken to avoid eye strain during the school period. Young children who havea tendency to hold their books too close to their eyes, or if they squint or frown when reading, should have their eyes examined before the delicate eye muscles are imparied by the heavy tax placed upon them in reading and study. Properly fitted glasses will overcome defects of sight in Children that, if allowed to go on can never be entirely overcome. If taken in time the properly fitted glasses will so strengthen the weak eye mus- cles that glasses may be dispens- ed with entirely . On the other hand, if the strain is permitted to run on for any length of time the eyes beucome permanently weakened and glasses must be worn constantly. Dr. Salsberg—who has made Childrens eyes a sepecialty for more than a quarter century— will be at the Cottonwood Hotel for the next week or ten days. 2 Our “Idaho Gold” and “Tip Top” are like history, they re- Peat. 24-tf ED V.
