Child Labor Law Causing Com
pIications in Boise; Service
Is Crippled.
Special TO The Tribune.


BOISE, Ida. May 15.-The child-la-
Dor law. passed at the last session of
the Legislature, is giving the managers
of tho local messenger service much
trouble. The law prohibits the en-
ployment Of boys under sixteen years
of age in such service, and the man
ayers have been obliged to secure the
over that age apparently not desiring
such employment. Most of the boys
used bicycles but this method of trans
portation will be dispensed with, hence
the service will to some extent be Grip
pied.

Arc We n Courteous PeopIef

Are we as Americans as courteous
in all our relations of life as we'll dis
posed visitors occasionally think us?
Are we as courteous as mixed blood,
equitable laws and a prevailing senti-
ment of self respect might be reason
ably expected to make us? Do we not
sometimes confound issues, confuse
disinterestedness with politeness and
believe that because good breeding
comes from the heart all good hearted
people are consequently we'll bred?
Yet there are men and women who
stand ever ready to help their fellow
creatures and who are seldom or ever
polite to them. DR.. Johnson was one
of the kindest of men, but of that
courtesy which respects the feelings as
we'll as the rights of others he had ney-
er the faintest perception. Now, what
harm does it do Il man to contradict
him?' he used to say, and contradic-
ton was the guiding principle of his
talk. 1t is a guiding principle with
people Of much less intelligence today,
and it gives to conversation a rough
acerbity, destructive alike of pleasure
and persuasiyeness. 1t Is supposed to
be a masculine prerogative but, like
other masculine prerogatives, has been
usurped by an advance guard of wom-

he did not come, and at last, with Il
sigh, she remembered the blackberry
pail and rose to her feet.
1t was a large pail, holding five gal
Ions, and was much less than half
filed. Not caring to retrace her steps,
she crossed the open and pressed on to
a blackberry patch farther away, one
to which they seldom came. The day
was blistering hot, and when the last
glistening berry had heaped the pail
she lifted it with tired purDled fingers
and started home. carrying in her heart
the feeling of disappointing day.
1t was quite distance to the farm
house, and the girl hesitated, consider
ing which would be the shortest route,
finally deciding upon a path not much
used at that point, but soon communi-
eating with the country road.
She had gone but a short distance on
the path when a crunching step in the
woods startled her, and a minute later
a man stepped out from the trees,
started at seeing her, grinned amiably
and walked to her side. She stifed the
first impulse to scream. There was no
one near to hear, and it might be dan
gerous to show fright. So plucky Mar
tina concealed her alarm and walked
quietly on her way.
