PLEASE LETrlE SLEEP.

Recently the Atlanta Constitution de-
clared that there were three cities on the
American continent which had gained
special mention as towns in which reli-
gious duties were conspicuously performed
on Sunday and the laws Of rest and rep
utable recreation -scrupulously observed"
The cities named were Toronto, Baltimore
and Atlanta.
The Washington Post protests that
Washington city must be inclued in the
list. ut is doubtful" says the Post, III
In any one OF the smaller cities or larger
villages Of New England or in any other
section, such serene quiet could be found
as pervades this city on that day.
Tho Post is right. Washington on S,in-
day Is one OF the most restful cities In the
United States, but this condition Is not
confined to Sunday. Washington is rest
full city every day in the week. The gov
eminent employees set the example They
are always resting. They are never In a
hurry. They go lelsurely to their desks
at or 10 o'clock In the morning and
through any Of the departments when
you VIII, and you reel tnat you are III
an atmosphere Of peace and rest. There
is mono OF the hurry and hustle Of the
factory or the store or the counting
room Everybody takes life quietly and
easily and restfully, and as the depart
ment people constitute large percentage
OF the population Of Washington, 1t IS
not surprising that their influence should
extend throughout the entire city.
"On Sunday" says the Post. ut almost
seems as il nature made pause in the
activities in order that the inhabitants
of the capital might listen to the music
OF the spheres Well said. 1t Is the
same on Monday and on Tuesday and all
tho year round. Washington listens every
day to the music of the spheres and fair
" revcls in inocuous desuetude.

The fool -killer hasn't been doing his
duty of late The practical joker Is still
abroad in the land. At York, Pa, on
Tuesday, a bicyclst with an air pump
tried to Initiate" seven-year-old McClel-
Ian Relkard, with probably fatal results.
Tho cyclist told the child to take the
nozzle between his lips, and young Rel
kard complied, whereupon the practical
joker pumped air into the boy until he
fell writing with pain. The youth with
the pump escaped-a great pity He
ought to be punished, yet 1t Is not safe
to say he intended to infict any serious
Injuries upon his victim.

But that most Of them will relapse into
their former obscurity when the strike
is over we entertain no doubt.

will be shown in miniature, and
the method of dressing and pol
ishing the gems will be practic-

IDAHO'S BUILDING.
EDITOR MESSENGER

: Somewhat different from the
other state buildings is the struc-
ture that Idaho is erecting at the
Worlds Fair. 1t is unique, hand
some, comfortable and attractive.
1t IS an original design by 3.
Flood Walker. a Boise architect,
and it will stand on the hill over
looking the Agriculture and Hor-
ticulture palaces. 1t has for
neighbors the California and Ill
inois state buildings.
The building, work on which
was begun early in November, is
go feet square and one story
high. lis designed along the
lines of bungalow, with clean
cut, plain outlines. The exter-
Tor walls will be of cream col
ored staff and the roof of red
Spanish thing.
The arrangement of the inter
Tor is that of a Spanish hacendia,
the ten rooms being arranged on
the four sides of an open court
or polio. In the center of the
court will be beautiful foun-
tain, surrounded by inviting
flower gardens.
1t is the interior that will
prove most interesting and at
tractive. The entrance is in the
middle of the main facade,
through massive iron gates 10.
feet high and eight feet broad.
The passageway extends through
to the court, and like the clois-
ter is paved with red brick.
Over the entrance is q big pine
plank, two inches thick, in which
the word Idaho" in large let
tiers. is burned deep into the
wood. 1t is bolted above the en-
trance and the six big iron bolts
that secure it are exposed to
view.
Opening from the passageway
is a door to a commodious room
fitted up as mems smoking
room. There is large mantle
in this room and big easy chairs.
The room is finished in natural
wood from Idaho'and the beams,
rafters and all wood finish have
a smoky appearance. Cosy cor
ners and rest spots abound. The
electric lights are enclosed in old
fashioned iron chandeliers and
brackets designed especially for
the building.
Back of the mems reception
room is private room for the
Commissioner and back of this
is Executive Commissioner G. b.
Hurts private room and Office.
Still further in the rear are the
toilet rooms. Sleeping apart
ments are provided on the west
side, and also large store room
designated to contain perishable
exhibits.
The north. side of the building
is given over to the women sof
Idaho, and this will be furnished |
throughout by the Ladies' Col
umbian Club. There will be a
ladies' reception room the same
size as the mems room already
described. This room will be
marvelously beautiful, and will
be decorated with the sage brush
colors. The walls will be in
sage yellow, the woodwork in
sage green flemish, the floor of a
dark sage green, while the furni-
tnre will be of still darker
green. The floor will be partial
ly covered with dark rich green
rug with black border.
Back of the parlor will be a
ladies' retiring aud dressing
room. Still further back will be
the kitchen equipped with rang
es and all culinary utensils. At
the rear of the kitchen will be
provided a room for the maid
who will have charge of the
ladies department. Many elab-
crate functions are planned by
the Idaho women for the exposi-
ton period.
