The good tobacco taste lasts so long—a small chew of this class of tobacco lasts much longer than a big chew of the old kind. That’s why it costs less to use.

Last year one thousand and eighty girls found sanctuary there. And for twenty six years no bewild- girl has sought of the Army shelter at one homes in vain. She is welcomed with sympathy, genuine love, finds no holier than thou atti- tude there. Two things she must promise upon entering: First, to remain in the home at least three months and second, not to give her baby away. She is charged nothing for her room and board. She makes the pretty little garments for her baby; she learns some useful work with which she can support herself and her child and when she leaves she takes her kiddie with her. There are people who say that a woman can never “come back.” But ninety per cent of the girls who leave the Homes go straight. One of the Salvation Army Re- ; scue and Maternity Homes is lo- cated at Spokane and another is to be erected at Boise in the near future. This is one phase of The Sal- vation Army work, the public is asked to support October 7-16. real she | | s about the whole baseball scandal jis that it has shattered the faith | of the small boys in their idols of the diamond. It is a dirty muss jat best but the cruelest blow that has been struck has been at the faith of the urchins of the nation. The loyalty of the lads to their heroes of the baseball |world is something that no money can buy. They give it freely where they think it is de- “sell out” the served. But to small boys is wanton. To ex- change the wholesome and clean respect of hopeful manhood for the crooked dollars of the gam- blers is worse than trading a birthright for a mess of pottage. Under normal conditions the ordinary offender can pay the penalty and the world forgets af- ter a time. But no small bov whose idol is involved in the con- temptible mix-up ever forgets. How the game has ben hurt is | plainly evidenced already. The cutting scrape at Joliet of Thurs- day after the exhibition game of the Chicago Cubs of the National league is but one instance. The cancellation of the New York |city games between the Giants and the Yankees in another. So it will go on until the public is insured that the gambler has nothing to do with baseball . The two cannot mix and baseball, not gambling, is hurt. — Wallace Press Times. Wheat has dropped below $2 per bushel in Chicago for Dec- ember delivery, the first time in several years, or since the gov- ernment fixed a minimum price} for wheat. The politicians who told the farmes that they were being robbed by the govern- ment’s minimum price have again been shown to be wrong. Strong efforts to force wheat to $1.50 or even $1 per bushel are} being made. A Moscow grain dealer offered to bet a promin- ent Latah county farmer that wheat will be $1 per bushel be- fore Christmas. The farmer countered on the grain man’s of-/| | fer by offering to “bet $100 that there'll be a hell of a lot of bol- shevists in the country if the price does go to.$1.” And he was right. There is a limit to even a farmer's patience and the dirty deals that have been given the farmers during the past have about reached a climax. Farmers are being driven to the} nonpartizan league and kindred associations by the unfair deals to which they are subject. |When the farmers rebel it is |; time for others to look for a | Dlace to get something to eat.— Moscow Star Mirror.
