Talk Il Over with Your wife.

There are thousands of families

wretchedness to-day, who could have

If the husbands had confided their
business affairs to their wives, says
Success.
Women are very much better judges
of human nature than men. They can
detect rascality, deception and insin-
cerity more quickly.

out exactly as the wife had predicted.

TAKES PLACE OF ICE.
Peculiar Method Of Cooling Water In
Nicaragua.

When a native woman OF one Of the
broiling hot little villages of interior
Nicaragua wants to cool some water
she sets about It in way little calcu-
lated to cool herself. The average
native woman looks frail and listless,
but there is no suspicion Of listless-
ness about her process of water cool
ing. She fills half-gallon earthen-
ware jar about two-thirds full. The
jar is made Of baked clay, and not be-
ing glazed is partially porous, so that
1t soon becomes moist on the outside.
BY means of two leathern straps firm
ly attached to the neck of the jar the
woman causes the same to rotate
swiftly In the air. The mouth Is wide
open, but centrifugal action keeps the
water from flying out. The endurance
exhibited by the woman Is marvellous.
When the operator thinks the water
Is sufficiently cooled she stops the
movement by dexterous twist OF her
wrist, and hands the jar to the man
who has been waiting to Quench his
thirst. Usually he takes mouthful.

CAN'T AGREE
ON MEAT Bill n.

Washington, June 27.--When the
conferees on the agricultural appro-
priation bill took a recess today they
professed that 1t appeared to be an
impossible task TO reach an agreement
on the meat inspection amendment.
Senator Proctor urged that the dis
agreement be reported to the house
and the senate, but the house con-
ferees refused to consent to that. Ans
other attempt to reach an agreement
will be made this afternoon.
An absolute deadlock on the meat
inspection amendment of the agricul-
turaI appropriation bill was reported
this afternoon by Senator Proctor
after three sessions of the conference
had been held The Vermont senator
said the house conferees had declined
to consider any compromise on the
subject of the paying of the cost of the
inspection by the packers.

OPERATE MILL
! THRO' SUMMER

Special to Evening Teller.
Orofino, Idaho, June 27.-The snyder
sawmill located at Fraser has COM
pleted the spring run. but arrange
ments have been completed for oper-
ating the mill during the summer to
supply the demand for lumber in this
territory. The spring run aggregated
$4,000 feet and much Of that will be
sold in the outside market Mr.. Snyder
Is now negotiating with Spokane and
Lewiston millmen, and 1t is probable
a sale viii be negotiated within few
days.
A large percent OF the cut OF the
Snyder mill is Of an excellent quality
Of yellow pine and this product must
be placed on the outside market to
secure satisfactory price. The local
demand for lumber is largely for an
inferior quality. This places the bet
ter market on the outside market
where large demand exists for the
better grades.

MAKE FEATURE
Of FAT STOCK
Fair Association to
Offer List of
Premiums

c. w. Mount, secretary of the
Lewiston Charleston Fair association.
who returned yesterday from visit
to Portland and Puget Sound points,
states that the livestock exhibit this
year will be one of the best in the
country, and the association is now in
correspondence with breeders who will
bring their herds here for the pur-
pose Of entering the show ring.
I'VE are in position to guarantee
such premiums as will insure the
breeders that they can bring their
herds here without any cost to Them"
said Mr.. Mount today. THE impor-
tance Of the livestock exhibit is fully
realized by the association and it has
been the purpose each year to enlarge
this department of the fair. The pres
ent management has taken the matter
up early In the year and has made
such arrangements that we can offer
premiums sufficiently large to invite
the largest breeders to bring their ami
mails here"
Demand for Thoroushbreds.
The Lewiston country is well recog-
nized as desirable center for the ex-
hibition Of the several breeds promi-
nent in the northwest, and on this ac-
count the breeders are anxious to
come to the Lewiston Charleston fair.
Conditions each year are more favpra-
bie for the pure bred stock. and with
in a short time 1t Is believed all Of the
mongrel breeds will be expelled from
the country.
"The development of the dairy in
dustry is calling for better grades of
dairy animals and the destruction OF
the open range makes it important for
the cattle owners to improve the
breeding of their herds in order that
the best results can be secured for
the feed 81 3ply. Both Of these con-
ditions open a market for the pure
bred animals, and breeders of pure
bred stock will within a few years
find the largest available market IN
the northwest among the farmers and
stockmen of eastern Washington and
central Idaho"
Fast Horses Entered.
Mr.. Mount states that the horses on
the northwest circuit this season are
the best ever before registered.
large number of the best horses that
have heretofore stayed on the Cali
fornia and eastern tracks are now on
this circuit and will participate in the
Lewiston races this year. A large
number Of fast horses will also come
| from the Montana circuit. insuring
the best racing ever held on the
| Lewiston -Clarkston track.
