THE BIG BUSY STORE. HUMAN SACRIFICES IN ASSAM Attempt by Government to Abolish a Common Evil Has Met With Much Opposition. The report on the efforts made by the government to suppress slavery and human sacrifice in the Nago hills shows, according to Mr. Clayton, who was recently commissioner on the northeastern frontier of Burma, that last year there were 271 slaves in Ekamptu. as compared with 373 in the previous year. The reduction was mainly due to release of slaves, writes Henri Rickard in the Cincinnati En- quirer. Several cases have been re- ported of Indians being enticed by Nagas to work as blacksmiths, and be- ing seized and sold into slavery In the Hukong valley, but only seven Indian slaves were found, “of whom three were released, the others being con- tent with their lot. An Indian man and a girl set apart for sacrifice by the Nagas were released. The investigations showed that hu- man sacrifice was much more com- mon in the Naga hills than was sup- posed, there being no fewer than six boys and ten girls annually, and in plentiful years twenty boys and thirty girls kidnaped from Assam. These were the commonest victims. The re- port states that an attempt to rescue slaves from sacrifice creates a vicious circle, in which a fantastic price is charged for a victim hoarded for a bigger and more expensive sacrifice. The report comes to the conclusion that the only solution appears to be direct government administration of the tracts where these hideous prac- tices prevail. ANYTHING BETTER THAN HIKE Fat Youth Would Welcome Pneumonia, if Only It Could Be Served With Promptness, Harold MacGrath (novelist) tells this story in the New York Herald: “One dark, chill April morning, some years ago, Billy Muldoon announced that we should go hiking Instead of riding. This would mean eight or ten miles of heel-and-toe work. Among those present were Kid McCoy, Charles B. Dillingham and myself. There ar- rived the night before a fat young chap, who weighed 260 pounds. He went along all right for a mile, but as we took a long, muddy hill he be gan to puff. When we reached the top he sat down on a big cold bowlder and began to wipe the sweat from his face, “‘Hey, you big fat slob’!” yelled the professor. ‘What the blankety- blank do you mean by sitting down on that wet stone when you're all a- sweat? Do you want pneumonia’?” “Said the victim promptly: ‘Yes, and I want it right now!” Fish Meai. Experiments with fish meal as a food for domestic animals have been made abroad, and it has been found that pigs and cattle eat it with relish. In Norway the meal is made from cod and herring. The codfish are dried first in the alr and then in an oven, and afterward ground into meal. They make a highly nutritious food. Her ring are boiled and placed under pres- sure before belng ground. In England and Scotland fish meal is made from the waste parts of all kinds of fish, first steamed and then dried and ground. This meal usually contains from 55 to 65 per cent of albuminoids, 3 to 6 per cent of fats and 14 to 18 per cent of calcium phos- phate. Searching Ocean’s Depths, The latest invention in nautical de- vices now In use on a pilot boat Is a machine which throws a beam of light to the sea bottom allowing the depth of the water below the ship to be gauged. Soundings may thus be done away with. The invention may be use- fully employed by the big liners jn en- tering shallow water. The searchlight is worked through a hole in the lower part of the ship, while an observa- tion window is placed nearby through which the beam of light may be seen. A mirror is set at the end of a long observation tube running vertically through the ship to the bridge. Novel Motor Canoe. It Is reported that a western man has built a most unusual water craft In the form of a motor canoe. He took an ordinary canoe and placed in the bog a detachable motorboat ar- rangement which pulls the canoe for- ward when the motor is operating re- versely. At the stern of the canoe he rigged up an airplane propeller, which is driven by a separate engine. In order to insure safety, pontoons were fastened on either side of the craft, and the steering gear of both motors was placed within easy reach near the center of the canoe. Helmet Worn by Magellan. A brass helmet worn by Magellan, in 1521, when he was killed in the Philippines while making the first round-the-world voyage, has been dis- covered by Major H. D. Selton, United States army, according to advices re celved by the copper and brass re search association. The helmet, dented from blows re- ceived in battle, but in good condition, was purchased from a Moro chieftain, by the officer, who ascertained its his- | tery through tribal traditions.

DIOCESE OF BOISE Bishop’s House Boise, Idaho, July 2nd, 1923. Rev. and Dear Father: The Benedictine Sisters have opened a Home for the aged at Wendell, Idaho.

Praying God to bless you and the flock committed to your care and with kindest wishes, I am, very sincerely yours in Xto., Daniel M. Gorman, Bishop of Boise. TRAVEL INCREASING, The tourist travel through | Cottonwood, the past week has |been exceptionally heavy and the town is receiving its share of patronage from the tourists. There has not been a night this week byt what there were from one to three cars in the tourist park. The travel no doubt was stimulated to a great extent when it was announced that the North and South highway thru the Salmon river section was open for travel. When the road is finally completed the travel over this route will be tremen- dous. CARD OF THANKS. We wish to express our most sincere thanks to all of our kind neighbors and friends who so willingly assisted fs during the recent illness and death of our beloved son, Joe. The memories of your kind deeds will live in our hearts forever. Mr. and Mrs, Joseph Altman and family. Heagy tor mim, He looked like an agent for a non- refillable egg or something, but his as- surance was such that the lady of the house asked him in and bowed him to a parlor chair, She then seat- ed herself and waited his opening re- marks. “My name, madam,” announced the caller grandiloquently, “is Opportun- ity.” slight nod, “Tl listen to your scheme,” she re- sponded serenely, “but I may as well tell you that my name is Prudence.” TRY TO WORRY IF— You never have a blowout, If you make a green in one, If the missus is always smiling. It you always have hot water. Tf the janitor insists upon being po- lite. If the gas company won't take a nickel, If a customer gives you six bores of golf balls. If the landlord insists upon lower ing your rent. If the dentist says your teeth don’t need touching. If the people in the next apartment | close the piano because it annoys you. -—-Chicage American.
