DOMINIC Holiday Attire.

Stable & Rafter have opened the
new adobe building opposite HALEY
Theater and adjoining their old stand,
as butcher shop. The main shop is
the largest and finest OH Wood River,
and presents at glance an evidence
that the consumption of beef in Hal
ley is enormous. 1t is being decorated
and prepared for a grand opening to-
morrow morning, when some prize
pigs in holiday dress, choice fowl and
other dainty meats will be exhibited
as at Christmas time, in old England.
The shops will be enlivened with ev-
ergreens and bunting, after the fashion
OF a county fair. Everybody is in
vited to call and see the display.

The Star Mine Bonded.

The Star mine, which Is located at
the head of Star gulch, about two
miles flom HALEY, has been bonded
to +. J. Scott, Of Toledo, Ohio, for
Sos, 700, the bond to run until the goth
Of January next. The Star is owned
by Messrs. Falk, Wolters and Chase,
and is very promising property.
Last year it yielded s3.., 800 worth Of
ore, which Melted its owners about
$4,000. This year its yield was not
equal to last years because of several
disadvantages (such as long lease to
miners who neglected it, etc. under
which the owners labored, but there is
large quantity Of ore in sight which,
competent judges estimate, will more
than reimburse the purchase price.
The deed is to be put in escrow in
Wells, Fargo & Co.'S, in Salt Lake
City.

A Warming.

A man who gave the name of John
Picotte came in on the kelton stage
last Sunday without paying his fare,
the agent at kelton supposing that he
was relative of the publisher of this
paper, and that his fare would be
paid here. The man, who was un-
doubtedly an impostor,has disappeared,
and his fare is of course unpaid.
This should be warning, not only
to stage agents, but to all other per-
sons not to trust anybody on account
of the publisher of the TINES without
an order signed by him.

Select poetrp,
TIRED MOTHERS.

A little elbow leans upon your knee,
Your tired knee that has so much to bear;
A child's dear eyes are looking lovingly
From underneath thateh of tangled hair.
Perhaps you do not heed the velvet touch
ofwarm, moist fingers folding yours so tight;
You do not prize this blessing over much
You almost are too tired to pray tonight
But It is blessednessl A year ago
did not see it as do to-day
We are so dull and thankless, and too slow
To catch the sunshine till il slips away.
And now IL seems surprising strange to me,
That, while bore the badge of motherhood,
did not kiss more on and tenderly
The little child that brought me only good.
And II some night when you sit down to rest,
You miss the elbow from your tired knee,
This restless, curling head from off your breast
This lisping tongue that ehatters constantly;
If from your own the dimpled hands had slipped
And ne'er would nestle in your palms again;
Ifthe white feet into their grave had tripped,
l could not blame you for your heartaehe then!
/ wonder 50 that mothers ever fret
AT little children clinging to their gown;
Or that the footprints. when the days are wet,
Are ever black enough to make them irown.
III could ind a little maddy boot.
Or cap or jacket on my chamber floor,
Ill could kiss a rosy. restless foot,
And hear its patter in my home once more.
If could mead a broken cart to-day,
Tomorrow make kite to reach the sky
There is no woman In Gods world could say
She was more blissfuIly content than I.
But sh the dainty pillow next my own
Isnever rumpled hy shining head;
Ny singing biraling from its nest is Hown;
The little boy / used 10 kiss is dead.

The man who, by some sudden reyolu-
ton Of fortune, is lifted up all at once into
condition of life greatly above what he
had formerly lived in, may be assured that
the congratulations Of his best friends are
not all Of them perfectly sincere. An up
start, though of the best merit, is generally
disagreeabIe, and a sentiment Of envy COM
monty prevents us from sympathixing with
his joy. If he has any judgment he Is
sensible Of this, and, instead of appearing
to be elated with his good fortune, be en-
deayors as much as he can to smother his
ioy and keeps down that elevation of mind
with which his new circumstances natural
" inspire him. He affects the same plain
ness Of dress, and the same modesty of
behavior which became him in his former
station. He redoubles his attention to his
old friends, AID endeayors more than ever
10 be humble, assiduous and complaisant.
And this is the behavior which IN his sit
uation we most approve of; because We ex-
pect, it seems, that he should have more
sympathy with our envy and aversion to his
happiness than we have with his happiness.
Ii Is seldom that with all this he succeeds.
We suspect the sincerity of bis humanity
and he grows weary Of this constraint. =

THE STARS AND STRIPEs.-On the 14th
of August, 17T7, Congress resolved ''that
the flag of the United States be thirteen
stripes, alternately red and white, and that
the union be thirteen stars, white in blue
field, representing new constellation.
Once the stripes were increased to tf-
teen. but in 1918 they were changed back
permanently to thirteen, perpetuating the
original thirteen States of the Union, and
it was decreed that for every new State
coming into the Union star should be adj
ded. The stars have FIVE points, those on
our coins six They were first arranged in
a circle, afterward in the form of large
star and now in parallel lines.

CLEANING BRAss.-The method pre-
scribed for cleaning brass, and in use at all
the United States arsenals, is claimed to be
the best in the world The plan is to make
a mixture of one part common nitric acid
and one-half part sulphuric acid in a stone
jar, having also ready pail of fresh water
and box of sawdust The articles to be
treated are dipped into the acid, then re-
moved into water, and finally rubbed with
the sawdust This Immediately changes
them to brilliant color. IF the brass has
become greasy, it is first dipped into a
strong solution of potash and soda in warm
water; this cuts the grease, so that the acid
has free power to act.
