sunshine into the lives of others. tells an
interesting story of "a great light that
once iHumined her own romantic life. 1t
happened when she was a little girl in a
Western mining camp. 1t was Christmas
time, and an unusually heavy snow had
blocked the mountain passes and efectu-
ally obiiterated the path to toyland, so
Santa Claus could not come. The little
girl had prayed for a doll and the men,
who loved and petted her constantly, de
clared she must have one
They pondered the matter over and de-
cided to make doll But of what? Po-
tatoesl And potatoes were so scarce in
camp that they were almost worth their
weight in gold. So at night while the
little girl slept, the big men worked. their
clumsy hands and big knives held close to
the candle while they carved the wonder
ful doll from potatoes and fastened the
parts together. They painted cneeks, eyes,
and hair. and then arrayed her IN clothes
OF marvellous masculine manufacture.
There was a happy little girl in camp that
morning. but there was no potatoes for
the Christmas dinner. When Mrs Alden
tells the story, she adds, with a tender
light in her eyes. And it was really the
dearest dolly ever had"

La TOILETTE WILL HUNT
From Here the Famous Wisconsian
Went 20 Glenwood Springs
To Hunt at Meeker.

With last nights lecture in this
city United States Senator LaFollette
closed his present seasons tour, and
very few people are acquainted with
his Immediate plans or know that he
is contemplating a delightful hunting
outing in Rio Blanco county.
This morning on No. 4 Senator
LaFollette and his private secretary
Mr.. Hannah, left the city for Glen
wood Springs. There Senator LaFol-
lette will join a party of Wisconsin
friends and they will go to Meeker
and outfit for an extended hunting
outing in the far famed hunting reg
ions of Rio Blanco county. The sena-
tor was very enthusiastic over his
prospective hunting trip.
The nomination of Isaac Stephen
son for us. senator from Wisconsin
to succeed Senator Spooner, was a
great triumph for Senator LaFollette
and naturally he is feeling highly
elated over the long struggle in
Wisconsin Republican politics. Ste
phenson is n life long friend of La
Follette's and a strong champion of
LaFollette ideas and reforms. The
corporation interests that so bitter
ly assail LaFollette did all in their
power to keep Stephenson from land
ing the nomination which is equiva-
lent to an election but all to no avail.
The people of Wisconsin are with and
for LaFollette at all times.

THE TRUTH NEVER HURTS

The three column article that ap-
peared in the Sentinel. Thursday even
ing. in which it is heraIded to the
world that it is "the plain, conserva-
tive facts" regarding the fruit ship
ments, may apply to that particular
community, but so far as Pallsade
is considered 1t will require a lit
tie more estimating to make the
knock" apply to this section. 1t is
the general opinion of many Palisade
fruit growers. whom we have talked
with, that the article was the great
est knock on the valley thus far this
season. Fire away gentlemen, every
knock on Palisade is n boost, you
can't keep the real thing down.-Pall-
sade Tribune.
As the article in The Sentinel is
simply the statement of man. who
more than any other has been re-
sponsible for the extraordinary de-
velopment OF the fruit industry of
this state and also that it is the con-
census of opinion of over 400 grow
ers, which includes many Palisade
men the article above will have lit
tie weight in the minds of thinking
men.
The truth never hurts and because
little coterie would mislead people
as to conditions. in order to boost
the value of lands the intent of the
article win be readily seen. Pail.
sade will benefit to a greater degree
is she does not attempt to isolate her
self and call stop thief" regarding
the fruit crop to other sections of the
county, than IL. she confesses to the
truth that all sections have suffered
| to a certain extend.
