THOUGHT H WAS WANTED.


Christ Nelson, having been In this
country only few weeks, was slow In
learning American customs, and espe-
cially the inscriptions on envelopes.
One Of his first acts after landing In
Oregon was to take out naturalization
papers. On the corner Of the envelope,
in which were contained the docu-
ments that made him an American
citizen, we're the words: Return In
I'VE days"
wal. ! be har,' he said yesterday,
as he shuffled up to the counter In the
county clerks office and spoke to Dep
uty Prasp.
What do you want?" asked that Of
ficial, carefully noting the embarrassed
flush on the Swedes face.
WAL It say on this har envelope
return in five days and time be up
to-day, so ban come round"
When assured that nobody wanted
him, he turned with surprise and
walked sadly away, not certain
whether he was naturalized or not

And He Was Not German.

One Of our third grade teachers no
ticed a little fellow the other day dur
ing penmanship lesson who was evil
IDENTIFY absorbed in his work and put
ting his whole soul into his efforts to
make his results look like the teach
ers copy upon the blackboard.
Thinking such devotion worthy Of
special reward she passed up the aisle
to give him an encouraging pat upon
the head and the regulation smile Of
approval. As she drew near she no
ticed that his lips were moving, and
that with the completion of each letter
he compared 1t with his copy and NUT
tered audibly, "damit," "damit;" then
screwed up his courage and his lips
for new attempt. The teacher passed
on without distracting his mind from
his work.--Journal of Education.

Well, one unlucky day he engaged a

missed his flag. He rang ct once.
Where Is that flag Of mine? he said,

IL Is tire business of the kidneys to

times when they need a little assistance.

PAUL HAD HIS OWN IDEA.
Fathers Explanation Of Lightning Not
Satisfactory to Him.

Little Paul was four years old when
the western city In which he lived was
swept one night by terrible storm.
Wind. thunder and lightning played
havoc, and, while other members Of
the family were huddled in dark cor
ners, Paul watched the illumination Of
the sky with great delight The next
morning at breakfast he asked his
father what caused the streaks Of fire
across the sky, and his father, with
great pains, essayed to explain. Paul
listened attentively and apparently
accepted what was told him, but when
he found attention diverted from him
self, he leaned over to his aunt, who
sat beside him, and whispered:
1T wasn't that, auntie. 1t was God
scratching matches on the sky"

WHAT MADE HIM DOUBTFUL.

marked to friend the other morning,
as they came into the city:
Hawkins, Of Stamford, is going to
move into that new house next door
to me- know him very slightly, and
! understand that you know him pref
ty we'll"
yes, have known him for upward
Of 20 years"
well, what kind of a fellow Is he,
anyhow asked the commuter.
"A first-rate fellow, and In every
way desirable. Why?"
Il just wanted to know, because
could never quite make up my mind
about him, he wears such a small
hat. "-Philadelphia Ledger.

An Indiana View .of an oroan,I

After while curiosity led me back
to the sod house, and l saw for the
first time how the white woman pumps
so much air into a box that when she
presses on the top board 1t bowls con-
vulsively l forgot my bashfulness SO
far as to listen openly and enjoy the
operation, wondering much how the
white man puts pair Of lungs into a
box, which is furnished with whole
set Of black and white teeth, and
when he sings to 1t 1t appears to an
swer him. This is how the white peo-
pie teach their children to do things,

Laundry work at noIne would be
much more satisfactory If the right
Starch were used. In order 10 get the
desired stiffness, 1t is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind paste Of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear
ing quality Of the goods. This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De-
fiance Starch, as 1t can be applied
much more thinly because of Its great
or strength than other makes.

Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine

their attractiveness to the way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau.
ty. Home laundering would be equal
ly satisfactory If proper attention was
given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening

you will be pleasantly surprised at the
improved appearance Of your work.

|G[ECI|NHAYNOODIURY
Task Resumed in the Trial Of the
Miners Union Official at
Boise, Idaho.
WILL PROBABLY TAKE ALL THIS WEEK
None Of the .Mep Already Examined
II Have Been Accepted FinalIy--Bu,k
Of New venire Is Made Up Of
Farmers From Country Surround
ing Boise.

Boise, Idaho. May 14.--The task Of
selecting jury, resumed Monday In
the case OF William d. Haywood,
secretary and treasurer Of the West
ern Federation Of Miners, charged
with completely in the assassination
of Former Gov. Steunenberg, may be
completed within the next four or
five days according to the judgment
OF opposing counsel. Eleven men
were in the box when court opened at
2 p. M, Monday. None have been
finally accepted by both sides, how
ever, although three have SO far
qualified themselves to serve that
only peremptory challenges, of which
each side has ten, can remove them.
When the regular term panel was ex-
haused last Thursday afternoon with
one seat vacant, there was nothing
Judge Wood could do but adjourn
court to allow Sheriff Hodgin and his
deputies to summon a special venire
of one hundred men. The bulk of the
jurors are expected to come from this
installment of eligible material, large
ly made up Of farmers from the coun-
try surrounding Boise. The new VEN
ire shows rs farmers or ranchmen,
the remainder being people of bust
ness, many OF them prominent bust
ness men.
1t was said at the beginning Mon
days proceedings that not more than
two of the eleven men held under
lock and key since last Thursday will
be members Of the trial panel. The
residents of the country districts, ex-
amined last Thursday, said they read
Of Gov. Steunenbergs death and
talked about 1t casually with their
families and friends for time, but
that discussion of the matter ceased
many months ago. They had all read
Of Peresident Roosevelt's "undesir-
able" citizens letter but in no in
stance did prospective juror say that
the letters had influenced his judy
ment or prejudiced him In any way
against the prisoners. Another signi-
ticant feature of the examination Of
talesmen was the fact that the at
torneys for the defense were unable
to unearth here any feeling among
the country folks against any particu-
lar labor union or against trades
unionism in general
There is growing impotence among
those who came here to attend the
trial to hear the opening address of
the prosecution, which probably will
be delivered by James H. Hawley,
leading counsel for the prosecution.
Just how far the states attorneys will
go in outlining the case they hope to
prove against Haywood, is problem
atical. They may choose to state
their case in a most general way,
giving no actual hint of the testimony
they claim to have, or on the other
hand, the opening address may be
as broad as the attorneys
expect to prove under the most favor
able rulings of the court.
1t is certain that no testimony
to lay the broad foundation
for the alleged conspiracy of which
Meyer and Pettibone are
said to have been a part, will be in
troduced without stubborn and pro-
Ionged fight on the part Of the de-
'endants counsel More than 200 wit
nesoes are under subpoena in the Hay
wood case alone.
