order to establish Lewiston as the best
trading place in this part Of the coun-

send away for anything. Take our

large mercantile establishments in
Lewiston, there Is no reason why any
order should not be filled absolutely

Has Surprise in Store.
I'VE have added in particular one
new department in which we are going
to do our very best to make good one,
and what this department is we will
not tell you at this time; we will wait
until we get our basement floor fixed
and furnished according to plans and
ideas we laid some time back. l can
say, however, that we are going to
make our basement floor one of the
handsomest underground salesrooms in
the northwest. In the summer it is
9oing to be an ideal cool and comfor-
table place to trade. and we feel that
Lewiston is now large enough and the
people loyal enough to justify us in
this enterprise.

one Of the most active members Of the
Chicago Medical society, will leave for
the Philippines about March l on
novel mission, intended to aid in the
education and assimilation Of the
brown people taken under Uncle Sans

His plan is to fuse the various dialects

cooperating the Information in a Fill

holds that one Of the main drawbacks
to advancement among the FiSipinos

the fact that their dialects are not mu-

travels and scientific studies in the

Dry Water.

TT has been 50 wet for the last three
or four years." remarked Truthful
James. that good many people have
forgot how dry it used to be. remem-
Der one year when the Missouri river
was dusty all the way down from Kan
sas City to the Mississippi. OF course
the river was running all the while,
but the water in it got SO dry that it
turned to dust and blew away. 1 took
a boat down the river at that time, but
it was so dusty on the boat that you
couldn't see the hind end Of it when
you was standing on the front end 1t
was a little the worst 1 ever see My
mouth got so much grit and dust in it
that l could strike match ON the roof
Of it any time. One day the boat got
stuck in fifteen feet Of Missouri river
water. It was SO dry and dusty that
the wheel couldn't turn. What did we
do? Well, sir, we went out and hired
a farmer to haul fresh well water for
fifteen miles to mix with the river wa
ter until it was thin enough to run the
boat through. City Journal

Meaning of the Word "Omaha.~

The name Omaha" bears testimony
to the long journey of the people and
reveals some of the causes which
brought about this breaking up into
distinct tribes. 1t is composed of two
words. which signify going against
the current" or up the stream. The
Omahas were the people who went up
the stream, while the Quapaws, their
near of kin. went, as their name re-
veals, with the current" or down the
stream. The traditions Of both these
peoples say that the parting occurred
during a hunting expedition. each divi-
sion finally settling in the lands With
er they had wandered apart. This
epochal hunt must have been centuries
ago, for the Quapaws bore their de-
scriptive name in 1910, being men
toned in the Portuguese narrative Of
De Soto's expedition as then living on
the Arkansas river, where they dwelt
until 1889, when they eeded their long
occupied lands to the United States.

Wy Tor supper, but after that Gho
went of down to the barn to be alone
and think.
The NOW had been filled with new
bay. and she climbed a ladder and
found nest back against the end Of
the barn. There in the semi-twilight she
not only thought all kinds Of thoughts,
mostly about Reuben. but sometimes
she sighed and sometimes she gritted
her teeth. In this way she succeeded In
getting up considerable emotion and
IN firing herself out, and by and BY she
fell asleep. One Of hAr last thoughts
was that Reuben was no chevaher, but
only an old poke who would live and
die without even falling down q well.
When she awoke It was dark. and
there was grumbung Of voices ON the
floor below her.
Miss Betty had suxsed and slept for
hours. When she did not appear at the
supper table she was supposed to be at
a neighbours, and night fell without
anybody being alarmed about her. At
8 o'clock Reuben started out to see her
home, but stopped first at the barn tc
see to the horses. Ten minutes before
he left the house the girl on the hay
NOW carefully dragged herself for
ward until she could hear what was
being said below, and she soon made
out that gang Of four or five tramps
had slipped into the barn and was plot
ting robbery.
Her heart began to beat in way tc
choke her, and she couldn't have cried
cot to save her life. She heard Reu-
ben shut the kitchen door after him and
whistle as he came down the path, and
she heard the ramps getting ready to
was only when the door swung open
and a match was struck to light Ian
tern that Betty rolled over and over on
the hay and managed to shrek out:
"Oh, Reuben, look out! There are
robbers herer'
There were shouts and oaths and blows
from below and screams and shrieks
and calls for help from above, but the
battle was over before Farmer Spoon
er and his wife got there. Reuben had
found a neck yoke at hand and gone
in to break heads, and five tramps who
had thought to find him an easy prey
had gone down under his rain Of blows
and were doing a good deal Of grooming
and begging.
Land O MASSEY, what was it?" asked
the farmer and his wife in chorus.
IL guess Betty's up there" replied
Reuben as he looked upward
"Y-yes, I'm here" humbly replied the
girl.
"And what have you been dom up
there?" asked the mother.
Getting over the sulks."
and have you got over 'em?"
81 guess So"
'1Then you come down here and quit
actin like goslin'. That fence man
may have captured fifteen cannons in
the last war, as he Dragged about, but
Reuben has licked five monstrous big
tramps without gosn' away from home
or ruffiin' up his hair. If that don't
make him one o, them shevaliers you
are always talkin' about then I don't
know pumpkin pie from gooseberry
bushes"
