aeain Riaht With Children.

From the time baby is old enough
to creep it can be taught how to use
dinner napkin. A child year old,
especially little girl, can be trained
to eat with the fork neatly and grace
fully instead of smearing its face and
bib with food stopped over from a
spoon. l am no advocate Of whipping
heaven forbid!-but a sharp rap over
the fingers should be administered to
the child that ticks its fingers at the
table every time this happens. Then
1t will never, as a man or woman, lick
its paws while eating, to the disgust
of all we'll bred persons forced to sit
at table with it.
Parents who wish their children to
possess graceful, refined ways must
begin by forcing themselves to observe
correct etiquette at home. If child
sees its father leaning his arms broad
side upon the table while he deyOurs
his food we may be very sure that in
FAINT will do the same. If parents in
terrupt and contradict each other and
talk loudly in conversation, nothing
short of a miracle will prevent their
offspring from going into the world
with this same execrable habit fastened
on them.

F. Lowe. The prosecution claims to
have sufficient evidence to convict. Mr..
Peters was taken before Judge Richard

600 for his appearance at preliminary
hearing to be held August 20

pie of Council as he has lived here

the deed is said to be personal i'll will
borne toward the firm.

TRAINING CHILDREN.
Mothers Responsible For Bad MAN
ners and Habits OF Their OAsprtng.

Mothers Responsible For Bad Man.
ners and Habits Of Their Offspring.
When one sees persons with offensive
manners in public places instantly the
thought comes, What ignorant, Ill bred
mothers those people had!
For instance, one sees man clean
ing his nails with his penknife In
street car or other public conveyance.
That mans mother never taught him
that it is a breach of common decency
to do such q thing. The same Is to be
said when q man eats with his knife
or thrusts it into the dish Of butter
instead Of using the knife provided for
this purpose. Any day one may see
even well dressed American men spit
ting upon the handsome tiled floors Of
our city restaurants as though they
were in q barroom and not In a room
with refined women. Many q time
these animals wear costly diamond
rings, showing that money in this
country Is easier to get than good
breeding.

ChiIdren's Teeth, Eyes and Nails.

Almost from babyhood little ones can
be trained to use toothbrush, and this
education will oftentimes enable them
to grow to maturity possessing perfect
and beautiful teeth. They should be
made to use the toothbrush at night,
Just before retiring. Have them brush
the teeth up and down as well as
across. A little salt in lukewarm wa
ter makes the best liquid to brush the
teeth with, and it makes an excellent
gargle for the mouth and throat.
Watch the little ones teeth and pre-
vent them from growing crowded OF
crooked.
Lukewarm water with a small pinch
of salt in it Is also an excellent wash
for the eyes. Salt should be always on
the toilet table. Never allow children
to rub their eyes with dirty hands and
fingers.
Keep the finger nails of children very
short. and make them form the habit
Of using a nail brush as soon as they
are old enough to hold one. The per-
nicious and execrable habit Of nail BIT
Ing must be broken up at all cost, even
h you have to rub aloes water upon the
ehildren's finger tips.

roughness and the tendency to positive
rudeness manifested by too many Of
them. At dancing school, with the
right kind of teacher, the boy will
learn to take off his hat to all ladies,
even to his own girl schoolmates; also
to men of age and dignity. The boy
thus trained will never, when he is a
man, stride into a gentleman's Office
and sit like boor, with his hat on, his
hands in his pockets and cigar stump
in his mouth.
In dancing school children will learn
never to let doors slam in other peo-
pies faces or to shove rudely ahead Of
others, as 90 many ill bred Americans
do, especially when entering a crowded
car or assembly room. They will learn
to bow politely when introduced to
others; also to sit still, erect and grace
full, without any nervous movement or
contortions Of the limbs. Boys will
learn to step neatly forward and open
a door for ladies.

utterly regardless of whose nose was

friend who was anchored in a corner
and leering foolishly at the riotous
mob. I've lost my hat, pard," he said
with drunken gravity. 1--WE lost my

the unsympathetic derelict. "Well

tucked his own tattered excuse under

Marshal Took a Header.
1t was here that Marshal Irish met
with a very undignified accident. He
undertook to check some of the pro-

minutive looking harvester, pinioned
him about the shoulders and endeavor-
ed to walk off with him. But he failed.
His hands were instantly gripped by
the victim, who lowered his head,
bumped his sturdy little back and the
marshal's heels went into the air, and
the marshal hit the ground hard
enough to ruffle the dead sea- Then the
little man sat on the marshal and the
marshal hollered huff.

of Washington, Oregon and other parts
of the country will be here next week
to look over the ground on which the
governments Okanogan irrigation pro-
ject will be built, and secure the in

There are two schedules on which bids
have been called for, one including the
dam and its adjuncts with the clearing
off of the timber on the reservoir, and
the other the canal and it's tributaries
