IS HE A REPUBLICAN,

THE Pend d'Oreile Review in
commenting on the tax slip Of
it's contemporary, the News,
says:
AHd while we are on this subject.
why has the News refrained all the
fall from mention of the supreme
U0urt decisions which have resulted
in the railroads and timber compan-
ies paying their special taxes, and
thus not only vindicating the repub-
lican county administration IN the
stand 1t took but also bringing 10
large amounts of back tax, which will
result in that much lower taxation
next year? Why was 1t silent when
in the Shoshone, Latah, Nez Perez
ease the supreme court held the state
lax levy CONSTITUTIONAL, with the re-
suit that Kootenai county, following
the direction OF its attorney, wasn't
up against 1t for conrt and attorney
fees as q result Of following Charley
Beale or on his latest legal tangent?
II he is republican, as he clai ms
to be. why doesn't the News editor
publish something to the credit Of the
county administration, instead Of
everything he can ind or distort In
to an attack against IT? He 10 max

Taking Care of Your Clothes.

In considering your winter ward
robe do not lay too much stress upon
the money-saving qualities of the gen
eral-utility gown. It's economy in the
end not to overwork one frock. Keep
your street costume exclusively for the
purpose for which it was designed.
Don't wear it in the house. Don't be
tempted to make it serve duty for both
street and home wear. If you do, be-
fore the season is over you will surely
find that your skirt Is worn and shah
by. while your coat has still kept much
of it's original freshness. This just
means that the whole smart effect Of
YOUR street frock is lost. No matter
how well the coat looks, a shabby
skirt provides the touch that makes

You didn't do it for me, then?" He
would not stand aside an inch. He

than her appearance downstairs would

step after her, eve favor to ask of
you. Couldn't you-wouldn't your sis
ter be willing for you to appear at her

''This is nicer-and so is all tho rest
Of my world. Lydia's too much in

"Try it. It's more fun than you

You could put up your hair and put on

top step, her hand on the door. But
she could not escape him. He was at
her side in two leaps.
II should like to be in the same

Miss Virginia, come down next time
will you? 1t will just mean that you
are willing to be friends-comrade

how long I've been waiting for you to

She was gone before the words were
fairly finished. Presently he was back
in the hot rooms and the crowd, a
faint flush on his smooth cheek, and
singular sparkle in his eyes.
When at last Lydia entertained
again, Hilliard found himself entering
the crowded rooms at the Dennings'
with q quicker pulse than any social
affairs had ever caused him. AS the
evening drew to close and no Viz
GINA came, he blamed himself for an
unwary hunter who had been follow
ing his game down the wind.

mind to go dejectedly home, come Up

Willingly enough, Hilliard escaped
to seek the familiar spot. He opened
the door unceremoniously-a stop
ped, with a rush of warm blood to his
heart. With little cry of discounted
surprise Virginia tried to pass him.
but his tall, broad-shouldered figure
filled the doorway, and he stood de-
terminedly still.

Men Are to Blame.


It Is customary for those who de-
plore the tendencies of modern life to
put all the blame for everything that
is wrong upon women, but Mrs. Rus
sell Sage takes a different view of the
matter. In an article in The Club
Woman she holds the American man
responsible, in great degree, for mod
ern American restlessness and home
lessness.
1--WE hear little nowadays of the
obligations of the father to his chill
dren," says Mrs. Sage 1.-The modern
father is not like the Scotchman of
Philadelphia, who said. do my share
in caring for these seven children.
On the contrary, the modern father
says: Let the nurse take care Of the
children. We will go to the park
'The paternal instinct is not strong
ly developed in the average man. He
must be diverted, and the woman. in
stead of being helpmeet to her nus
band, becomes prOvider of amuse-
ment. No part of the day or week is
set aside wherein fathers may become
acquainted with their children. The
Sabbath is given over to a mad seek
ing after excitement When their
father comes home in the evening the
children are in bed. The strain upon
the wife is great, and many dangerous
experiments are made to comply with
this demand of the men for amuse-
ment The watchfulness which care
full mother should give to her home
and children is expended on the self
ishnesS of one mantle father! 1t is
this attitude of the father which is
serious menace to home life!"
Club life and apartments Mrs. Sage
also mentions as partly responsible for
the passing of the home. "The apart
n.ent," she says, sis really the solution
Of knotty problem brought about by
the typographical formation Of our
metropolis and the enormous increase
in population, but it nevertheless
makes real home life almost impossi-
BILE. 1t is difficult to find an apartment
at moderate cost that is large enough
from sanitary point of view. All
rooms are on the floor. The child
cannot be isolated from the mother,
and the latter cannot obtain the nee
essary rest which is imperative to her
Well-being
'This problem Of space is not
solved even in the country. 1 know
one mother who finds it very difficult
to secure a summer home near the
city where the accommodations for
the family and the five maids are
sufficiently healthful and comfortable.
She will not doom the maids to hot
attic chambers and an abundance of
mosquitoes"
The servant problem Mrs. Sage
mentions as an effect and not a cause.
The growing desire on the part Of
women to free themselves from house
hold cares and their consequent neg
lect Of the duties of the mistress have
created the servant problem, in her
opinion.
And all these things are visited on
the heads Of the children. They are
left more and more to the care OF
servants. They receive no moral train
ing. And as for manners, there are not
enough to be worth mentioning to-day.
Neither does the school supply this
lack. The intellect is fed, and there
is no time left-for moral training or
the teaching of manners.
