Six Savings to Remember.

Ou- of large number of quota
tions selected by its readers the
Woman's Home Companion for
January prints the following as
the six most helpful notices for
the New-year. They are worth
remembering:
"There is something better than
making a living; making a life. !"
''Our success in life depends up
on our will to do.
''It is never too late to be what
you might have been.
"Great principles are in small
actions. If we fail i'll our present
circumstances to live nobly, we
need not imagine we should have
done better on grander scale.
Develop great character in simple
duties and in inconspicuous trials. !"
"To be of good cheer in case of
disappointment; exercise greater
charity toward the e1ring, and
make more allowance for the opin-
ions of people whose views differ
from mine; to smile more and
frown less.
"'To be honest to be kind; to
earn little, and to spend a little
less; to make upon the whole a
family happier for his presence; to
renounce, when that shall be nee
essary, and not be embittered; to
keep few friends, and these with
out capitulation; above all, on the
same grim condition, to keep
friends with himself-here is a
task for all that man has of forti-
tude and delicaCy.

TWIN GROVES,

We celebrated Christmas on
Monday. The program was short
but enjoyable. The thermometer
registered 19 degrees below zero on
Monday morning, but still the cele-
bration went on. The dance in the
evening was largely attended not
withstanding the intense cold.
The railroad survey was extend
ed through this place last week and
struck the southeast corner of the
townsite. 1t could not have been
better for this section. We hope
to see the road 60 through next
summer.
Mrs. ]. P. L. Clark made her
husband present of baby boy
Christmas morning. Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Freer also have new-co
er.
The two-weeks' old baby girl OF
Mr. and Mrs. George Richards
died last week of pneumonia.
Whooping cough is not spread
ing so much as it was. The ole
cases are improving slowly.
The school here has no vacation
this week on account of having
started so late, and the directors
wish to make up part of the los
time by the first of the year.

After poIy9amist Postmasters.

A special from Washington to
the Capital News says: Respond
ing to Senator Dubois resolution
calling on the postmaster general to
inform the senate whether any
postmasters in Idaho were polyga-
mists, Postmaster Genaerl Wynne
has completed his report and pre-
sented it to be printed yesterday.
He reports that there are six post
masters in Idaho living with plural
wives. Peculiar interest is taken
in the submission of the report to
the president, as it is believed that
it foreshadows the removal of all
postmasters now living with plural
wives. General Wynne reports
that some of the polygamist Nor
mon postmasters took plural wives
before the Edmunds' law was pass
ed and before the Woodruff mani
festo. How many of them have
entered into plural marriages after
the Edmunds' law had been enact
ed has not been determined.
Sentiment in Boise is to the effect
that P. c. Bingham will be the
next warden of the penitentiary.
Sentiment seems to be, that wheth-
er right or wrong, Warden Ackley
was too prominent in the late un-
pleasantness, and some other man
would give better satisfaction to
those outside the institution, while
those inside have no voice in the
matter. Mr.. Bingham is at present
deputy warden, took no objection
able part in the prison controversy,
is equipped by experience and nat
ural capacity for the position, and
if change is made it is probable
that no better man could be found.
His appointment would be very
satisfactory to the people of this
part of the state. One reason urged
for his appointment is that the in.
stitution would be SO conducted
, that the people in a short time
would hardly know there was {
penitentiary. Strife and envy il
such an institution is demoralizins
t to discipline and disgusting to tn
public at large.

HOW TO WIN A HUSBAND.

Woman's sphere in this Goth century ID
not limited any more than is mans She
can occupy almost any business position
or profession, and yet the popular view Of
womanhood is that she best fits the posi-
ton of wife and mother and head of the
household. Every girl should know her
heart and also know that her wornanly
system is equal to the strain of marriage
If gin is nervous and irritable ten chances
to one It is due to some trouble peculiar to
womanhood.
Cupid has no place in girls heart Il
she is nervous and irritable, feels dragged i
down, worn out for no reason that she can
think of. The weak back, dizzy spells and
black circles about the eyes are only sylnp-
toms Go to the source Of the trouble and
correct the irregularity. Stop the drains
on the womanly system and the other
symptoms will disappear. This can be
done easily and intelligently. So sure of

When Bishop Parker was the first
