''Oh, dear me-. said the giant, with sigh,

He turned his back on Giantland. and none could
say him nay.
On and on he travelled for twelvemonth and a day.
He was such a willful giant,
So resolved and self reliant,
So determined and defiant, he bound to have

But the other giants missed him and began TO pine

Their Iamented little giant.
Such a merry little giant
Such jolly little giant, whom they could not do
without.
They sent to him and begged him to came back,

Skates and Skating.

There was time too cold for Young
America to go out on lakes. ponds and
rivers to glide here and there on the glis-
tening steel blades. This popularity has
made the manufacture Of skates a pro1ni-
nent industry, one which has earned for
tunes for many people.
Skates have 'evoluted" from crude piece
Of bone tied to the shoe to the superb,
sharp-edged steel runner OF today. The
process Ia very interesting. The men who
deal In articles required by skaters declare
there has not been such demand for
skating goods for several years. Skates
were never 50 cheap. Twenty years ago

Orange River Colony.

From the Speaker.
The case Of self-government in the Orange
River Colony is simply that we pledged our
word to give 1t and that there is nothing
in the conditions of the case to give US
pretext for Withholding it. There is no
rebellion: we do not keep a large garrison
there, and the longer self-government is de-
layed the greater the complications which
our mistakes are creating.

An EDUCATIONAL FACTOR.
The Idaho Exhibit at Port
land Exposition. 1
ASTOUNDING IGNORANCE.
Concerning Idaho at st. Louis,
AS Last Year.

AS a public educational factor, the
Idaho exhibit at the Lewis and Clarl;
| Exposition Is proving gratifying
success. particularly since the Gem
state has always been one OF the least
known In the Union, despite its
claims to deserved prominence.
"What state is Idahoi In, anyway?'
used to be a common question when
Idaho was exhibiting ut St. Louis.
Such question may seem astounding
10 Idahoans, but the story that It
was often asked is voucbed for by
people who were with the display
throughout at the Louisiana Pur-
chase. kank, thin, elongated Texans,
natives Of the ..Nashun" and even
visitors from Missouri ard more
northern states, would frequently
pass through the idaho department
with queries such as these:
What part Of Callforny Is Idaho
iu2n
'Idaho's in Montana somewhere,
|.ain't it?"
II always thought Idaho and
Idaho City were the same"
"idaho's a town out somewhere
near the Mormons, amt it," N
So far 1t has been different at the
Lewis and Clark.
One reason Is that a majority oi
| the eastern visitors pass through
either southern Idaho or the Pan.

little wisdom In the coming. Anoth
or is that large percentage OF tht

been accomplished, for the inmates d
/ the Idaho building can even now tel
interesting tales OF ignorance con
cerning the Gem of the Mountains or
the part Of residents OF the coast

! The fact that all three transcontI.

portion of the state in getting to the
coast makes the Idaho exhibit o.

predominating emotion with casters

the inaccurate ideas they have gained
from hot, dusty, miserable journe,
