American people, which, in 1896, at the
beginning of the present era Of unbound
ed prosperity, amounted to 81 SOC, 600,

seven years ago was $21.1o; at the be
ginning Of the Civil War 1t was S13.Sn
Against this American figure Of S20.94

Best Sort of Man.

The average girl does not look for
an ideal man in these days, and for
this reason: She knows that he does
not exist; moreover, she is aware that,
even did he exist, and she had the
chance of capturing him. he would
not be practical; he would be a cut
above this very prosaic age. She pays
no heed either to the good looks, eN-
cept she be very young and inexperi-
enced, for she knows that the most
perfect face will not compensate for
poor table, and she is cute enough
to understand that the good-looking
man is a poor hand 1t keeping the
larder full
What your girl of to-day wants is
man who can keep her in comfort,
in the first Place; comfort in married
life, she believes, is really. the most
important of all factors in making
marriage a success. Naturally, then,
a girl looks out for capable man;
either of business or profession; a
brainy tyre of man: one who shows
promise of being able to better him.

A Revised Fable.

a. discouraged ant watched man
who was trying to wheel a heavy load
up hill.
Inc load was far beyond his
strength apparently, but he pushed
and iabored until he had nearly
reached the top.
Then, as he paused TO rest, the load
escaped, rolled rapidly t, the bottom
and spilled out into the mud
The man placed ais hands upon his
hips and swore what is popularity
known as a blue streak"
THAT seems a good, easy scheme
for .sue in trouble" said the insect
Il will try it."
But the ant speedily found himself
in the bug lookup.
Moral: While man may consider
the ant with exceeding benefit, it does
not necessarily follow that the ant
may profitably initiate man.

CHAPTER XXI.


We came, a little before midnight. to
Sir Bevill's famous great house OF Stow,
near Kilkhampton; that tonight was
brightly Lit and full of captains and
troopers feasting, as well they needed to,
after the great victory. And here, though

Lady Grace Grenville, Sir Bevill's fond
beautiful wife, and of all gentlewomen

"A London society woman" accord

she rides out in her automobile. An
other woman automobilist is rarely

The Girl Who PIeases.

charm In the pretty face, there must
be back OF it womanhood in its per-
lection. The art Of being woman
is indeed a great one There are wom-
en- who always do things right and
there are others who always do them
wrong. How often do we see this in
public? A woman imagines, often
without reason, that somebody is en-

To Stop Gossip.

Gossip is not so much the result Of
malicious thought as it is of no
thought at all. So few realize what a
dangerous weapon we possess in our
tongues, and how mucl harm we do
from letting them thoughtlessly wag.
For instance, there are two words,
simple enough in themselves, that In
troduce untold trouble into the world
and are responsible for more harm
than any other two words in the Eng
lish language. These two little words
are nothing more than They say"
They have done more to ruin reputa-
lions than any other thing.
The next time you hear some one
use those words stop and ask who
s'they" are. You will have trouble dis
covering their whereabouts, for they

DISTRICT COURT REVERSED.
Important Decision by supreme Court in

Important Decision by supreme Court in
Water Case In Kootenai County.
The supreme court recently hand
ed down an important decision in the
case Of the Standpoint Water i Light
company vs.. the Panhandle Develope-
ment company important paritcu
larry because it effects the big Boise
river water suit in which District
Judge Stewart Is preparing a decree,
and also because it contains the first
opinion by the supreme court Of this
state on the question of reasonable
diligence" in the matter of prosecu
tion of work on irrigating bitches and
head works. On this point the sup
RENE court holds in the Standpoint
case:
Where an appropriation posted his
notice on December 10, 1909, claim
ing certain amount of the waters of
stream, and thereafter on the 18th
day OF January, 1903, commenced
work on roads, surveys, etc, prepar-
atory to constructing the diverting
works and kept at least one man at
the work continually from that date
until the date Of the trial and ex-
pended over $1,000 on the work from
the commencement thereof until Feb
FuaFy 8, 1904, and had built one
mile OF wagon road along the course
OF the stream and had built 34OO
feet OF tiume, and such work was pro
secuted in mountainous country
where the winters are long and rough
and the snowfall is heavy. Held. !
that the work has been prosecuted
with reasonable diligence as required
by section 8 of the act Of February |
%, 1899 session Laws Of 1899, !
page 3s1l."
The matter came before the sup |
RENE court on appeal from the dis /
trtct court Of Kootenai county, where
the Standpoint company brought an
action against the defendant devel
oPement company, praying for an in
junction to restrain the latter from
dlverting the waters Of Switzer and
West Sand creek or in any way in.
tsrfering with them or deprivine the
Pailntif, of the use thereof. The
lower court rendered Judgment for
the plaintiff, from which judgment
and an order denying the defendant a
new trial, an appeal was taken. The
court says
ION the facts as presented by this
appeal the trial court should have 4:
found that the defendant, the devel-
oPement company, had a prior right
to that Of plaintiff, the Water &
Light company, and that defendant a
had prosecuted the construction of
its diverting works with reasonable I
diligence. - :
