first against tho present regulations
forbidding tho assignment of a tract
or land under reclamation project to
any but u bona fide homesteader;
second, that the present allowance or
tlmo In which to complete payment
for water rights was insufficient and
that It should bo extended to twenty

fered because of tho fact that tho cost
of tho water had been Increased from
$35 to $55 per acre, nnd It was urged
thnt tho water users' association be

WHERE HER THOUGHTS WERE
Most Married Men Have Had a 81m
liar Experience, If They Will
Admit the Truth.
The husband was reading a news
,paiier account to his wife Now and
then ho paused and asked a question.
Tho uaturo of her replies mado him
doubt that sho was listening closely.
Ho accused her of having thoughts
elsewhere and sho indignantly retort
ed that sho had heard every word.
He coutlnued reading for a few
minutes and then glanced at her.
From tho far-away look in her eyes-
ho know her thoughts wero not upon
tho item ho was reading. So, turn
ing mo Eticot as an excuse for a
pause, ho continued as follows: ap
parently reading:
" 'Last night, about 2 o'clock In tho
afternoon, Just a few minutes before
breakfast, a hungry boy about sixty
years old bought an orange for nine
pins and threw It through a concrete
wall twenty feet thick. "With a cry
of despair he jumped into a dry mill
pond, broke his arm at tho knee
joint, and was drowned. It was only
ten years later, on the samo day and
at tho samo hour, that a goat gave
birth to six elephants. A high wind
then came up and killed throe dead
horses and a wooden cigar Indian.'
What do you think of that, dear?" he
questioned, suddenly.
Sho gave a little start, smiled, and
aald:
"I think that's a splendid bnrgaln,
Henry. You had better get half a
dozen, for your stock of shirts is
low."
An ostrich can eat tacks, but it can't
lay a carpet.
ITS HARDTO WORK
It's torture to work with a lame, aching
back. Get rid of It Attack the cause.
Probably it's weak kidneys.
Heavy or confining work is hard on
the kidneys, anyway, and once the kid
neys become inflamed and congested,
the trouble keeps getting worse.
The danger of running into gravel,
dropsy or Bright's disease is serious.
Use Doan's Kidney Pills, a fine remedy
for backache or bad kidneys.
