the division ques ton. Rathdrum
is fighting for self-preseivation,
which is the first law of nature.
Bonner's Ferry is supposed to fight
for its self-advancement. Both
towns are right from their own
standpOint-a fact that will be
conceded by all fair minded people.
We only oppose Rathdrum so far
as it effects the interests of Bonner's
Ferry. Aside from that, the HER
AID wishes Rathdrum and her
people all success and prosperity.
We admire them in the manner in
which they pull together for the
interests of their town, and for the
brains they display in political mat
tiers. If Bonner's Ferry only dis

Is Of such an obvious nature that it Is
impossible for them to appear on the
| highways, In street cars or in other
busy haunts Of men without cheaper
ing themselves In the popular eye. To
this class belong the fat lady, the
doublc-headed boy, the four-legged
girl, the midget and the giantess.
Among the plain freaks are the tattooed
lady, the man with the iron jaw, the
transparent man, the India rubber
lady and a host of others who, when
clothed in ordinary garb. look for all
the world like commonplace human be-
ings.
Indeed, sthere are few professions
which offer better opportunities for
courtship than that of freal1ing, and
many are the marriages which result
from platform propinquity. Nor can it
be denied that matches made in this
way turn out about as happily as be-
tween creatures of normal appearance
and construction.
Soma years ago a notable wedding
party assembled in one of the most
fashionable dime museums in New
York. The bridegroom was tattooed
Albino prince with beautiful snow
white hair and soft pink eyes. Tho
bride was an armless maiden who wore
black lace mitts on her feet and could
boast of many remarkable pedal accom-
plishments. A gentleman who wore a
beard seven feet long and was said to
have inhabited q cave in the heart of
Ulster county before he went into the
museum business gave the bride away,
and a dwarf known as Princess Little
finger held up the bridal train. Nearly
every human curiosity of distinction
was present, and. as the groom placed
the ring on the third toe of the brides
left foot blind cornetist burst into the
strains Of the wedding march and the
needy clergyman pronounced the words
that made the two one.
The marriage has proved a happy
one in every respect, and the couple,
when not engaged in their professional
duties, occupy neat white cottage n
short distance from the city where /
called on them not long ago. They have
four children, the eldest Of whom has
no arms and his fathers pink eyes. The
second is tattooed from head to foot
the only one of the kind ever born in
captivity-and has inherited her IA
theirs long albino hair. The third has
beautiful arms but they are precisely
the color Of her fathers eyes. The
fourth has proved source of great sor-
row to his parents and tears fill their
eyes as they look upon their bright,
sturdy baby boy who came into the world
without any Inheritance in the way of
malformation or coloring that would
enable him to follow the family calling.
Thus cruelty handicapped from the mo-
ment of his birth his father and mother
pray daily that he will in the course of
time develop some mental popularity
by which he may earn his bread. II he
were only girl he could become Cir
cassian beauty, or if he were blind he
conld be taught to play checkers, but
as it is they sometimes fear that his
case is a hopeless one.

sparing hand to the various liquors that
stood on the board, and although he
drank enough between the soup and
coffee to have put dozen men in the
very best of spirits, by the time the
cigars were passed round he had passed
from the melancholy stage to one of
sullen quiet that threatened to de-
velop into positive ugliness at any mo-
ment
THE chairman opened what the To-
cal papers called the feast of reason
with speech in which he fairly slob-
bered over the whole department,
praising all its officers and men in the
most offensive manner. He was fol-
lowed by the sheriff OF the county who,
hs O'Farrel remarked to me in an I'M
Gertone of disgust: Laid it on with a
brush, in his efforts to Guido his prede-
cessor.
at was now my Irish friends turn to
speak, and a roar of applause greeted
him as he rose a trihe unsteadily to
his feet and looked with what seemed
to re to be smile of contempt at the
double line of eager faces that were
turned toward him. But the look of
anticipation on each countenance
changed with comical suddenness to
one of chagrin and surprise as the
speaker blurted out:
Gentlemen, it seems to me that
we've heard quite enough about this
fire department already this evening.
Now, for my part, I'd like nothing bet
ter than to see the whole company
officers, men and machines-in hell.'
He paused a moment, and the awful
silence that hung about the board told
him that he had made bad break, and
full sense of the enormity of his Of
tense flashed across his drunken brain
and sobered him in an instant.
Hes done for himself now
thought, but was mistaken: and can
leave you TO imagine the yells of delight
that shook the building as he went on
with perfect seriousness: Because.
gentlemen, / know that if they were
there they would put the fires out in
less than a minute and make it decent
and comfortable place for us poor sin
ners who'll have to take up our resi-
dence there sooner or later.

eny doubt of an Irishman's ability TO
extricate himself from any trap into
which he may have Numbered

He sat slouchingly upon the end OF

lection in his attitude. An old hat re-

and chirruped in fright.
He drew the bench a little closer to
the tree and climbed upon it. That
put him within reach of lower limb.
He laid the little bird carefully on a
forl1ed branch and, with a strength
surprising in one so feeble, he drew
himself up and sat on the limb. Above

the only aristocracy is that of wealth

professions are all counted lower than

Liquid Food an Aid to Digestion. and Cold
Drinks Refresh Heated Persons.
The incessant adjuration not to drink
with meals we have always held the re-
verse Of truth from theory and from ex-
perience. The latter is that dry meals
cause heartburn, the former shows that
splitting up the meal of solid food with
liquid acts precisely like splitting logs
Of wood into kindling for the fire, giving
the digestive fluid easy access to the
small particles, instead Of sizzling and
making gas on the outside Of a wad Of
thick PASTE And the talk Of diluting the
gastric juice is nonsense, because the
surplus fluid drains quickly through the
stomach. Better drink too much than
too little.
We are glad now to be REINFORCED by
an English sporting man, Mr.. Horace
Hayes, who says that drinking nothing
during or for an hour and half after
meals is the best of ways to train down
weight, but he cannot do it because it
always brings on rheumatism-probab
from the solid food producing overcon-
contracted salts in the circulation, and
consequent deposits in the muscular
fiber. The same writer says that the no.
ton about animals being injured by CIV
ing them drink when heated is stupid
and cruel piece Of barbarism; that it
only does them harm when the drink is
very cold, by producing nervous shocks
as it would to man, while if the chill
is taken off it first, it refreshes heated

SILVER AND SAVINGS BANKS.

Free Coinage Would Have the Effect OF
Wiping Out One-half the Deposits.
A tailor who should insist on his GUS
toner accepting suit Of clothes worth
only half as much as the one paid for
would be considered either fool or q
rogue. The agitators for a debased cur
rency which would permit debtors to
pay their creditors in dollars worth one
half Of those they borrowed need not
complain II plain people use plain Ian
guage in speaking Of their scheme. The
silverites claim they are being unfairly
abused when they are called dishonest or
regulators. A single illustration will
show whether they are not correctly de-
scribed.
There are in the various savings
banks Of this country deposits amount
ing to 1880, 744, 900. This large sum
represents the little savings Of years by
working men and women, small bust
ness men and farmers On tho passage
Of free coinage law these deposits
would be payable in silver dollars worth
only so cents and having a purchasing
power one-half less than our present
dollar. As the banks keep very little
money on hand they would not be able
to pay their depositors in gold, even
though they wished, as their loans would
be payable in silver, and of course their
debtors would pay in the cheap dollars
The result would infallibly be that one
half Of the entire savings bank deposits
Of the country would be wiped out,
practically stolen from their owners and
given to those who had borrowed them.
Would not this be dishonest Is it not
simple reputation? And, If so, what
are the men who advocate it?
