The National Council of Congrega-
tional Churches was in session last
week at Syracuse, N. Y. The tele-
graphic report states that "the Rev.
Edward A. Paddock, of Idaho, spoke
wittily on that state He said that
the politics of the state and country
must be purged by the Congregation
alists and the little red schoolhouse. "

Each year spring opens with the
Weiserite's breast filed with bright
hopes for the season and each fall
closes in without seeing many Of
them realized. 1t has been going
that way for a long, long time, but
still dispair is myth with us, because
we always know it is but short,
pleasant winter to pass and another
year will open with as bright prospects
as before. 1t is that way this fall.
Some of these days there will be a
turn in this long lane of hope and
faith and little reality will run
amuck in our midst.
G. S. Fosselman has been skipping
around quite lively since returning
from the Omaha Fair. He first took
a few samples of apples and Weiser
evaporated fruits and went to Mon
tana to talk up the country to the
benighted people of that section.
They were taken Off their base so
badly and were so eager to learn
more that he rushed back and got
together larger collection of fruits,
adding vegetable display. He also
took a good many boxes of apples,
which the people were wild after, and
is now back in Butte doing good
work. Well have them all coming
to Weiser eventually.

is surely no eeonomy..in using these
cheap powders. For a pure cream OF
tartar powder, as Dr. Prices was
shown to be at the Worlds Fair, goes
so much farther and gives so much
better results, there is no doubt of
its being more economical in the
long run.

LILLIAN RUSSELL
Her Unpleasant Personality and Doings Thrust
Upon the Public


NEW YORK. July 1S.-There is talk
that Lillian Russell may soon OBTAIN
divorce and marry for the fourth time.
At least it is certain that she has a very
devoted admirer, whose attentions do not
seem to be disagreeable. Anyone living
at Manhattan Beach realizes that fact
who sees Walter Jones getting up at 8
O'Clock every morning and making tracks
for Great Neck, the summer house OF the
fair singer.
There was time when Mr.. Jones' ex-
ertions as tramp in ''1492" used to tire
him SO much that he found it utterly im-
ossbe to rise before noon. Time and
Miss Russell have changed all that As
Great Neck does not indulge in the lux
ury OF midnight trains, it is impossible
for Jones to return to Great Neck after
the performance at Manhattan Beach.
But he always arrives in time for break
fast
In spite of the vigorous denials OF both
sides. 1T looks as If another divorce snit
and marriage were in order. For year
and half now Mr.. Jones has been anx-
ious to become u member OF Miss Rus
sells company. Last summer when
the fair Lillian went to England, Mr..
Jones had engaged his passage on the same
steamer, but by the exercise OF little
diplomacy, Manager Rice persuaded him
to stay here. Mr.. Jones is % years ola,
and Miss Russell is not.
