COUNTY SEAT NEWS ITEMS. Walter McAdams, who re-| cently purchased the Rimers | garage, has eted the name, | Main Street garage, by which | the garage will be known in the future. Mr. McAdams _ has made numerous alterations in the interior of the place. Property in Idaho county, chiefly town lots, was sold at tax sale in front of the court house in Grangeville, Monday morning. While purchasers were found for some of the lots, others were bid in by the county for the amount of delinquent taxes. Lots were in towns from Westlake to Dixie. The William Potter farm of 480 acres, four miles north of Grangeville, was this week pur- chased by Albert P. Schnell, who ‘resides west of town. In the deal, Mr. Potter acquired Mr. Sch- nell’s 160-acre ranch in the Lake district. The deal involved ap- proximately $75,000, and was made through the agency of M. L. Ayers. Possession will not be given unti! Oct. 1, 1920. The Wood Hardware company, of which Hub Wood is manager, is the name of the new firm, which recently purchased the Eimers Hardware. Mr. Wood has employed Frank Gillette to as- sist in the store. Gib Eimers, who has been identiifed with the store during the period his bro- ther. Jake Eimers, was proprie- tor, will enter the employ of the Miller Hardware & Implement Co. C. L. Mahurin was up from his home near White Bird last Mon- day for a load of chop feed for his stock. While in the city he stated that the recent severe cold snap had not done the dam- age to the stock interests on the river that might have been ex- pected, but that the stockmen did not desire a repetition of the conditions. Dorothy, 6-year-old daughte: of Mr. and Mrs. Homer Me- Culley, was painfully burned while playing with fire at her home, on Doumecg, last Sunday. The child, in company with her brother, found live coals in a heap of ashes. The children placed fuel on the coals, and soon a larger fire developed. From the blaze, the girl’s clothing be- came iginited and she ran or the house a flame of fire. She was severely burned before the flames were extinguished. The probate court of Idaho county and retinue journeyed to Kooskia Wednesday, where on Thursday of this week the pro- bate court was scheduled to con- vene to hear the case of the state of Idaho versus George W. Trenary, charged with violation of the law in operation of a pool hall in Kooskia. In the party were Probate Judge Campbell, Prosecuting Attorney Auger, Atty. M. R. Hattabaugh, Deputy Sheriff Powell and Miss Nora Hines, county stenographer. Court was transferred to Koos- kia, because of the large number of witnesses subpoenaed, and the high cost to the county of bring- ing the witnesses to Grangeville. BOOKS FOUND FAULTLESS. Books of the Idaho state treas- urer were found to be faultless by auditors of the state depart- ment of finance, who, making their report to the treasurer, took occasion to compliment his office on the state of the ac- counts. James Munro, chief ex- aminer, wrote as follows: “The manner in which the ac- counts are kept in your office and the system of filing the var- ious documents are worthy of favorable comment, as the ex- aminers report that any inform- ation desired was instantly avail- able. I also wish to add that the, same was true of the books and method of filing information iw connection with the collection of the land department securities at the time that these securities were checked and turned over to the department of public invest- ments by this office. It is of great assistance to this office to find matters in such condition and I wish to take this means of expressing our appreciation.” ; The books inspected were for the fiscal year to date. The re- ference to land department se- curities has to do with accounts of the treasurer's office, when, prior to the inauguration of the new department of public invest- | ments, it handled some of the collections now handled by that ¥ office. —Boise Statesman. ml SSS =>) Car Owners Remember How Slight Monthly inspection by an expert mechanic is essential to the proper care and op- eration of your car.

A soft answer has no effect upon a soft ‘person. Even when a woman weighs her words she gives good meas- ure. People seldom appreciate good advice unless they have to pay for it. It’s so much easier to gossip about people than it is to pray for them. . Good advice is the kind you remember too late that you for- got to take. You may think that you are loved by your neighbors, but don’t bet on it. : In life’s melodrama the hero gets the applause, but the villain cops the coin. All men are born free and equal and some remain in the bachelor class to-the end. Money makes the automobile go, and the automobile makes the money go—and there you are. Just before a man succeeds in getting all he wants in this world the undertaker gets busy with his person.
