Nothing Like Praise

Parents are too often slow to see the
motive of their childrvn's kindest
actions. A little fellow has been read.
ing of some young hero who helped his
father and mother in all Sorts OF ways,
and after racking his brains to think
how he, too, can help, he remembers
that he can fetch his fathers slippers
and take his boots away and put them
in the proper place. Without saying II
word to anybody, when evening comes
he does it, but the father is 50 occupied
that he notices not what the boy has
done. The little fellow hopes on,
thinking that when he goes TO bed his
father will say how pleased he was To
see Charley so willing to hep; but not
word is uttered, and The bow goas to
bed with a choking feeling in his throat
and says his prayers by his bedside
with sadness very real in his heart.
Parents often complain of children not
being so ready to help MS tn, y should be 4;
the iauH is with the parents, who have
not known how to evoke feelings with
which the heart OF every child is richly
stored. All words OF approval are

From my doorway, beautiful vision
Spreads far out before me this morn;
The fair scene has for mortals a mission
That something more holy be born.
Over the way, trees are bending thei
boughs;
The pine is wrapped closely about;
And Gods beautiful bow Of his promise
Above stands assuringly out
Stands over the ice bound grasses and ferns
Where their feathery forms abound,
Rejecting the rays of the sun by turns,
just above the snow on the ground.
Now our autumn has delightfully."- passed,
Its beauty, its warmth and bright days,
And winter has reached us gently at last,
And hearts are uplifted in praise.
Here amid the rocks and hills Of granite,
With forests and mountains sublime,
Our homes seem so near to the infinite
Our hearts should be near the Divine.

OF Interest to Prospectors.
We find q correspondence in

We find correspondence in an
exchange that gives come facts
about tin ore that will be of inter-
est to prospectors, and might assist
them in finding tin mine, which
metal we know exists in paying
quantities some place in our state,
having ourself found stream tin
when we were mining in Boise coun-
ty. The writer says tin ore in
America is almost invariably found
associated with mica, which in turn
is found in granite, or where mica
ceous slate and granite come to-
gether. 1t is found in true fissure
veins and associated with white or
cream-colored spar, with frequently
a stratum Of crystalized quartz.
In no instance has the writer found
any other ore or metal in the vein
except at the Black Hills where he
found gold in the quartz that was
imbeded in the spar. Tourmaline
and tungstate of iron (tungsten)
are frequently found in association
with the tin ore.
In nearly every instance, proceeds
the writer, the mica in the tin vein
is found in books. These books
range in thickness from half to three
inches in thickness, and lie in every
way except a horizontal position.
At the bottom end of the book you
will find a piece of ore which you
will pronounce iron and of no val
ue, but it may be an impure tin
crystal and should be tested. To
test it pulverize a pound or two as
finely as possible, and after pan
ming the pulp down until the water
is clear, if the residue is oxide of
tin it will be either light or dark
brown, steel gray or a blue black in
color, and competent assayer will
then be able to tell whether it is tin
and it's value if it has any.

New Years Greeting.

Another wave-beat has washed
the eternal shore, another year has
been added to the past, and we stand
at the threshold of 1892. During
the year that is now dead few have
realized the. hopes with which they
greeted its coming and were able
when it's successor dawned to con-
graduate themselves upon their
successes and their achievements,
but the many left it off right where
they began it, and must take up the
new where they left off the old,
treading still and forever the wine
press of hope deferred. Millions
like the old year, or like withered
leaves, have gone down into death
and nothingness, leaving no men,
DRY behind and no niche untitled.
But hope, though often baff1ed aud
disappointed, is perpetual. The
slightest change, even the ushering
in of new year, suffices to renew
its smoulderins fires, and so we
enter upon the year now before us
with no less of expectancy than
buoyed our spirits twelve-month
ago; for to poor humanity there
is always a better day coming.
Beyond the clouds that obscure our
vision there is always sunshine, and
it is we'll that it is so. Without this
continued renewal of hope, despair,
which is death, would speedily
overtake us all.
Just now, however, the readers of
the KEYSTONE need not be vision
airy to be hopeful. The future of
Wood River is brighter than the
past has been-at least for several
years. The infamous law that closed
our smelters and our mines will
soon be obliterated from our stat
utes, and then mining will be re-
sumed, and general business and
prosperity come to reward the years
of anxious waiting. Therefore in
extending TO our readers the GUS
tomary Happy New Years. greet
ing-believing that prosperity is
happiness-we do so feeling conf
dent that there is in the greeting
words something more than mean
ingless sound; for we believe the
present and each of it's successors
for many years will be years of
prosperity for Ketchum, and turn
to 1892 cheered by new hope.

THE American Sentinel has beer
weekly visitor at this Office for
the past two months. Its principal
mission in this world seems to be to
fight Sunday laws, which it does
with both vigor and reason. Under
our form of government there are no
holy days, nor has church or state
authority to compel the observance
of any one day above another. All
attempts to do so are attempts to
restrict the liberty of the citizen, and
should meet the determined oppo-
sition of all who love liberty better
than authority. But the churches
have their holy days, which they
should be permitted to observe and
enjoy in their own way, so long as
that way does not interfere with the
ways and rights of others, just as
they should be made to permit 9TH
ers the liberty they themselves en-
joy. This is a government for all,
and not for one or for class. But
it would be only such curtailment
of the liberties of the few as society
has right to exact for the benefit
of the many, to require the closing
of manufacturing and mercantile
establishments at least one day III
the week, in order that the cooped-
up slaves whose lives are dragged
out in such places may have an &C.
casional hour of health-giving sun
shine and an invigorating breath Of
pure air-blessings denied them in
the treadmills of their toll; but
both the day and its uses, in so far
as these are subjects of legislation,
should be-must be-if we would
have them conform to the spirit of
our laws and institutions, purely
secular. We wish the Sentinel
success in it's fight against sectarian
and Sunday laws.

possible that this is true. Hill,

is sound on the question, were

not impossible that one of their
purposes was to defeat aggressive
action on the tariff. We shall see.
