Blanche is a little girl who lives in the new state of Idaho, or the "Gem of the Mountains" as people living there love to call it. It truly is like a beautiful gem set in a ring of mountains, for the mountains entirely surround it.

The following clipping, taken from the NEW YORK TRIBUNE, illustrates the growing distrust of drugs, even among physicians. It is the experience of a man prominent in his profession.

During the next four years, many things occurred in which I can plainly trace the love of the Father about me. I had passed through the ranks of ordinary and able seaman, and had come to be second-mate of an American ship bound for Australia.
