A Modern Wonder.

Few people will believe it possible
that with common ordinary ak one can
slice shavings from a steel wedge, or
strike the wedge blow heavy enough
to cut great hole in the side of the
hard steel, yet in neither. case do the
ak injury. Few people will believe it
possible that one can chop into stick,
cutting through nails or other metal,
and yet do no injury to the ak. But
it can be done. Last Saturday The
News editor happened into Olson &
Johnson's hardware store where clerk
called our attention to lot of new
axes. See here" said the clerk, and
with that began hewing away at a large
steel wedge. We examined the ak.
No sign could be found to indicate
that the sharp, keen edge had been
misused. Then it was explained that
by new process of tempering steel by
electricity, an ak capable OF doing the
thing we had just seen done, could be
done. The process of tempering is
the discovery of a Pennsylvania firm
and the axes they turn out are more
wonderful than the famous blades of
the ancient swords of Damascus. Oh
son & Johnson have just received a
shipment of these wonderful axes and
it is worth while to see the above
rather fishy story verified. They will
be pleased to prove that The News
editor is telling the truth in this case,
at least.

A Strenuous Time.

Harry Torkelson and Pete Olson ex-
perienced rather exciting time Tues
day in an effort to go up Moscow
mountain to Harry's claim. After 60
ing only part of the distance the boys
were compelled to break trail through
snow to their waists. Slow progress
could be made and darkness found
them some distance from the cabin.
Starting fire in large dry cedar the
pair prepared to put in the night. Oh
course sleep was almost impossible
but few hours of doing was had.
During the night the big tree fell with
caash, but Mr.. Torkelson happened
to be close to the fire at the foot and
down in the snow to his head, and wa:
unable to get out of the snow pit be-
fore the tree went down, some of the
branches striking his head. Mr.. Oh
son was on the top of the snow anc
took down the trail out of danger.
The next morning the trip was made
with all parties tired but otherwise al
right.

his intention to come to Troy some
time in the immediate future and de-
liver two lectures. He announces his
subjects as: First, "On the Immortal
ity of Soul, proved by argument taken
from reason and not from the Bible"
Second: On the Existence of Jesus
Christ, and the Inspiration of the Bible,
proved by arguments not taken from
the Bible" The Father has been
asked to name the time most conven-
lent to him, which will be given as
soon as his wishes are known. The
question box will again be given the
attention Of the noted speaker, and all
sensible questions answered. Ques-
tions on religion, science, geography,

Goods Still Cheaper.

Talk about roasts here is an article
that appeared in the Juliaetta Journal
last Friday:
Our town was flooded again yester-
day with literature concerning the
special of H. P. Hull at Kendrick.
The matter loudly proclaims how
greatly goods are reduced in price and
states that thousands have been there
to buy since the sale commenced.
Our advice to our citizens is, not to
be led away by all this loud talk, if
you are thinking OF going up there to
trade just stop and ask some one who
has been up there their opinion of
said sale and then see if you do not
change your mind about the cheap
ness of things he is selling. One
party here in town was up there and
bought a lot of matches. They were
just thrown into cigar box loose, and
the party thought they were getting
them cheap at 10cts per box, but
when he got home he put them in
some empty match boxes, which he
had bought here at Sets per box, and
they did not fill two boxes, thus he
was looser some matches besides the
expense of going and coming from
there. Another party here in town
was up there one day, and having
bought pair Of shoes there about a
year ago for So he thought he would
just go in and price the same shoe
during this special sale. To his
anazement he found that the price
had been cut-cut away down-the
marker had got in among these shoes
with his knife and commenced cut
ting and slashing-and must have KEEP
up until he had lost his breath by hi:
violent exercise. When he stopped t
rest he found that Q cts had beer
shaved off the regular price, and there
he let it stand and now 50 shoes ar,
selling at the unheard of price of 2.o8
This is some Of the cut prices they arr
offering to the public-better stop anC
get your home merchants prices befor,
going away

Farmers Are Pleased.

Jas. Nelson of Bear ridge was a
Troy visitor Wednesday. In speaking
of the new Taney-Troy road Mr.. Mel
son said the people of his section were
highly elated over the matter. Great
credit was due to Richard King Of
Taney, he said, because it was Mr..
King who, more than any other one
man, worked until the much needed
highway was an assured fact, and the
people appreciated his untiring efforts.
No one thing was of SO much impor-
tance to the country east of Troy, as
this road, which will enable farmers to
market their crops at all seasons of the
year, and give these people some
choice of markets in both selling and
buying. The hill from Taney to Ken
drick is simply terror to every farmer
who has been compelled to travel over
it. Not only is the road very bad and
always bare, but the strain on 10th
teams and wagons is exceedingly cost
ly. The heaviest tires will last barely
two seasons, while the same tires will
be good over such road as will be
built to Troy, for three times as many.
Besides this, instead of muddy read
throughout the entire winter, these
people will have an average of six
weeks excellent sleighing all the way
to Troy over road that will make
heavy hauling or light driving pleas
ure. Nature has been most kind tc
Troy in the natural lay of this section
and in harmony with the law of least
resistance trade will flow this way. L
can't help it.

that there is an increase OF three
hundred per cent in the passen-

freight received is four hundred
per cent and the freight forward
ed from Troy, was, during the
same period, five times as great
during 1906. The general pros
perity of the country, together
with the excellent roads during

degree responsible for the mag
nifcent showing. Here is the
