Eattenlna Sheen for Profit.

Where possible the farmer should

heard about a community of farmers

did the finishing in this case took
their sheep only a few miles away
and began the work of putting on
flesh and fat. They came back from
time to time to buy the clover and
corn fodder of the farmers and even
the grains they had raised. But prin-
cipally they purchased the rough feed
that every farmer had in abundance
The finishers made money out of their
enterprise. The question naturally
comes, why didn't the farmers them
selves have the enterprise to keep
the rough feed at home and not let go

would then have retained on their
farms the manure that was lost to

Clock Is Perverse,

About twelve years ago a clock,
more ornamental than useful, was
given Miss s. A, Bailey of Peacham,
VT For a year, perhaps. by much
coaxing, II told the time more or less
correctly. then stopped. No amount
of shaking could persuade 1t to start,
and after time it was removed TO

few days ago it began to tick and the

so.

Use Imperial Stamps.

Four countries-Bavaria, Austria.
Wurtemburg and observation-disclosures

on the boats have heretofore had
much trouble in finding out what

on his farm his brother. w. ID. Stew

The Clean Stall.

II Is a useless piece of advice per.
haps to say keep the horse stall
clean" Yet We have seen horse stalls
that we're always dirty. Moreover we
have seen white and gray horses kept
In such stalls. When they came out
OF them in the morning 1t was a good
task to get the dirt and stain on them
They were unsightly In spite of all
the washing that could be done. A
good many farmers are too much
afraid OF wasting bedding. Sometimes
too they shake out sud save not only
the dry straw but also much OF the
wet straw. The horse is not a dirty
animal and there is little use in let.

A Queer Pet.

Many people have wondered why
the Empress Eugene always carries
about with her, wherever she goes, 9
little wicker basket, and many specu
lations have been made as to its con
tents. The basket is lined with cot
ton wool, and in that soft substance
nestles a hedgehog! 1t is the EN-
presss only pet. and she would moi
dream of allowing 1t TO be attended
by any one but herself She has
rather a superstitious attachment to
the curious creature, and believes that
1t has talisnanic power of insuring
her safety and general well-being.

Heroes and cowards.

Great occasions do not make heroes

grow and wax strong or we grow and

shows us what we have become.

THE DIVISION FIGHT.

THE towns OF C9ur d'Alene
and Standpoint are going to
make the most strenuous exer.
tion in their histories to secure
the division OF koOtenai county
in this session OF the legislature.
Their business men and real es-
tate promoters have combined
On the proposition OF creating
two new counties and abolish
ing Kootenai. They have each
appointed committees to work
IN unison under the advice OF n
legal committee the members OF
which have declared that in their
opinion the plan OF creating two
new counties and the fixing OF
the county seats OF each is FEAST
bic. 1t will be interesting to
watch the progress Of these two
towns in their battle for county
division. They are actuated by
motives OF self interest and are
not taking into consideration
the wishes OF the tax payers OF
the balance Of the county. They
are raising money and will have
delegations at the capital to in
tiuence the legislature and it is
likely they will not hesitate to
use the most questionable meth
DDS Of political intrigue to
secure their object.
Anyone who will look ut the
matter in q disinterested light
can see that county division is
not for the best interests OF the
people Of this county. 1t is there
fore not for the best interests OF
the state, and the logical &C.
quence is that o bill for county
division should not pass the leg
islatup; and we believe it will
not, unless improper influences
are brought to bear upon the
sequacious members OF the body.
Even then, the bill would be
more than likely to encounter
the veto Of the sincere and prac.
teal man who has been chosen
to look after the best interests
OF the state in the capacity oil
governor.

Now that Port Arthur, the
key to Manchuria from the south
has been taken by the Japanese,
it will not be surprising if the
Island empire will welcome peace
at the first opportunity. 1t is
questionable whether the Rus
sian army, should it be success
full at Mukden, will attempt the
recapture Of the fortress, whose
taking by the Japanese was an
almost sup ,rhuman achieve
ment and cost SO many thous-

chances Of success are now more
remote than ever, since the

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There Is only one way to cure dea fness,
and that Is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an inHamed
condition OF the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube Is
inaamed you have rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing. and when 1t Is
entirely closed, Deafness IS the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an infamed condition OF

As this issue Of The TRIBUNE,
the first OF the New Year, is sent
out to it's readers in the several
parts OF the county, We reflect
upon the past and speculate
upon the future. In the past we
have given our readers a better
all home print newspaper than
had ever before occupied our
immediate field, and have made
it the best that could be pro-
duced, within our means and
commensurate with the patron
age that we have received. We
have endeavored to fill our col
umns with news and solid infor-
nation to the end that we now
have a better paid up subscrip-
ton list and consequently a bet
ter advertising medium than
ever before. We have always
advocated projects and i'm
provements which We believed
were for the best interests OF
Rathdrum and kootenaicounty.
We shall continue this policy.
that Rathdrum's re-
sources are susceptible OF the
highest development and that
the future will hold out oppor-
tunities for improvement, which
il grasped, cannot fail to keep
Rathdrum abreast OF her sister
towns. We shall continue to
espouse the towns best interests
within reasonable bounds. In
the meantime any assistance
and cooperation, in the form OF
subscriptions, job printing and
advertisements, and items Of
news, will be warmly appnciat-
ed.

Reproduction of "Hazel".

The asscmbage which witnessed
the reproduction Of Hazel" with the
specialtics by the Rathdrum Dramat-
ic company, at the hall New Years
eve, enjoyed the time most thorough
~. The audience was small and the
reproduction wdS not \ great success
financially, due To too short notice
aud perhaps to the fact that the
specialties were not sufficiently ad-
vertised. However, despite the small
attendance, the company carried out
the program with excellent spirit.
The players all appeared at their best
and it is exceedingly doubtful il the
different characters could haze been
pe!sonated better by professionals al
together. The drama was played iy
the same cast as before. The special.
ties were excellent. The beautiful
song, Your as Welcome as the Flow.
ers In May, was rendered with fine
expression, by Mr. Guy c. Gilbert, ac-
companied on the piano by Miss
Molle Russell. The impersonatiou
lof "Bill Dillberry from Com Ioller, y
by Frank Dencc, was comic sketch
that could not be excellcd. Tht
farce, 1.-THE Doctors Once" was the
most comicai succession OF laughablt
situations ever given on the Rath'
