1915, in poverty and neglect. AT the

IN many poses, one of the best being

and Nine. Lebrum journeyed from Paris
to paint her She was generally CON

gels and archangels which he painted
thereafter. The identity of the beauti-
ful models before this time and until
the middle of the eighteenth century
is rather clouded,
The Marquise de Pompadour, chief
favorite of Louis XIV, was considered
by many TO be the most beautiful
French woman of her time, But court
designations wasted her face and figure
and she had recourse TO dangerous stim-
ulants-'' chocolate ambre, chocolate la
triple vanille, celerIs and other drugs -
TO freshcn her complexion and
brighten her eyes. According to Nine.
du Hausset, her confidential friend,
"she only succeeded in bringing out
pimples on her nose.'' SIT was at her
mouth that she began to lose beauty
according to another memoirist "She
had carly in life formed the habit of
biting her lips to conceal her emotion.
At the age of thirty her lips lost all
their brilliant color. They had to be
painted after every meal and every
kiss.
Could Not Reproduce Complexion.
The vast majority of the world IS
noted beauties have been women born,
like La Pompadour, in the humber
walks Of life. Queen Marie Antoinette
was, however, the great exception Ar
lists found her an eXalting model, not
only while she was dressed in her royal
robes, but when she was a prisoner in
the Conciergerie, wearing her mourning
veil and the dress of Tecluse, The
great portrait painter, David, sketchcd
her even while, manacled in the tum-
bril-, she was hauled TO the guillotine,
still regal in her beauty,
'It is difficult to give one who has
never seen the queen an idea of so
many graces and so much majesty unit
ed, said Nine. Lebrun, her favorite
portraitist Speaking of her complex
ion, Nine Lebrun added: ''I have
never seen one so brilliant, and brilliant
is the exact word that describes it. Her
skin was so transparent that it took

Famed for Beauty of Figure.

The Venus de Medici, the antique
Greek marble statue, which now stands
in the Uffizi Gallery of Florence-and
which Napoleon had borne off to Paris
that he might '!marry her to the Apol-

as the standard for beauty of the fe-
male figure. Her proportions, in inches,
are: Neck, II $40; chest, SO 30;

The identities of tho women models
who were selected by early masters of
art for the perfection of their figures
are not made very clear by history,
even where dwelt upon at all. One of
the earliest is LucreZia Butt, who was
carried away from the convent Of
Santa Margherita, at Prato, by the
great artist and Carmelite monk, Fra
Filippo Lippi of the fifteenth century.
He made her his model, and her beau
tiful form reigns triumphant in his
great frescoes and other works. An
other, was Chiara Fancelli, favorlte

GRANGEVILLE, Ida, Oct. 4.-The
fruit and vegetable display from the
Salmon river country was without
question the best that has ever been
exhibited here at any former fair.
The poultry, sheep and swine ex-
hib ted at the fair is perhaps as good
a showing as can be produced in the
West. The horse and cattle showing
is fair.
The horse races for this afternoon
promise to be interesting and exciting.
The town is filing up with race en-
thusiasts, and considerable wagering
on favorites has already taken place.

Four-foot wood is now selling at
$3.50 a cord. There are hundreds Of
cords stacked up on the mountains, and
scarcity of fuel is not anticipated.
The price later will raise.

stopped all threshing operations, and
all the threshing crews are taking in
the fair.
couple of new cases of dihptheria
are reported today, and the places are
promptly being placed under quaran-
tine.
The contract has been closed for the
brick work of the large new hotel, and
it is understood that it is to be a
three-story structure instead of two,
as was at first contemplated.
$. S. Taylor of Lewiston, with his
moving picture show and the Taylor
brothers as vocalists, easily were the
best side issue at the fair. There were
others, but the lengthy Taylor out

MELo.pRAMA OF HIGH ORDER
The Red Dagger Opening Play at the
Temple Saturday,

For melo-drama of the higher or
der. The Red Dagger is said to be
among the best. The play can aptly
be styled a Romance of the Ken
lucky Hills" The story is told of a
feud lasting for forty years between
two prominent families. The last fight
has been ten years previous to the
opening of the play and resulted in the
death of one Of the participants and
the binding Of the other The family
of the man who met his death moved
from the scene, and the return OF the
son to his birthplace arouses the old
feudal instinct of the blind colonel.
The leader of the band Of mountain
outlaws known as the Red Dagger is
DESTROYS of marrying the daughter of
the colonel, and In the attempt to gain
his point resorts to different crimes
which, for a time, are charged to the
son of the coloners old enemy. The
real criminal is afterwards found out
through his own confession and retrib-
ution comes to him at the hands of the
colonel whose sight has been restored
by the son of his old enemy.
The play as a whole is entertainine
throughout and will no doubt be as
well received here as in former places
where the company has played.

Lord Strathcona, lord high COM

Wednesday enroute on hurried trip
from Montreal to London He de-
clined to disclose the reasons for his
sudden trip He said
when I went to Canada seventy
years ago it was one tremendous
wilderness. By the close of the cen
tury, if not Tong before that time,
she will have a population equal to
the presnt population OF the United
the present population of the United
countries side by side, living, I hope,

"The greatest strides that Canada
has made have been in agriculture.
The great northwest. once the prop
erty entirely of the Hudson Bay
company, to be exploited merely for
the furs it could supply, is now cut
up into small farms and ranches. In

the northwest. Last year the north
west produced more than 100000
bushels OF wheat and more than 200,-

End of a COED Fellow.

Former Mayor Paul Barth of LOU
isville committed suicide after his re-
moval from the office ne held for ir-
regularities in its administration No
evidence pointed to his having receiv-
ed any part of the corruption fund
proved to have been raised and ex-
Louisville, but the evidence was con-
elusive that he had permitted loose
administration of public affairs, that
he had tolerated violations of law by
his political and\ personal friends,
that he was aware of corrupt prac-
tices and that he had failed in the
discharge of his sworn duty in not
removing and prosecuting the men
guilty of them He could not have
been convicted of boodling, but he
was already convicted of being a
good fellow"
Mr. Rockefeller once advised the
young men of his church against be-
ing good fellows He hoped that none
of them would ever conduct himself
in such way as to be called a good
fellow. Mr.. Rockefeller himself has
never been known as good fellow,
and he Can point to the greatest indi-
vidual fortune in the world as a con-
elusive proof that there is money in
it. AS matter of fact, it is not the
good fellows who get the money for
the work they do. The real good fell
low rarely sells out the people. He
only gives them away Chosen to
public office because he is a good
fellow, his good fellowship carries
him into giving away that which is
not his, but which has been placed in
his charge by people deluded into
thinking that such good fellow
could never betray their confidence.

Operating a Railroad in North Car
olina.

In general the cost of operating the
Southern railway in North Carolina
was shown Tuesday in the North
Carolina rate hearing conducted be-
fore Master in Chancery Walter
Montgomery, at the Southern railway
offices, to be higher than in any other
State through which the system is
operated
A. H. Plant, controller of the
Southern, testified that of the total of
7,515 miles in the system the mile
age IN Norh Carolina is 1,456, includ-
ing s67 miles of through lines and
500 of local lines. Mr.. Plant said
that practically all of the traffic. both
passenger and freight, was handled
on through trains He explained that
as the cost of handling of through
traffic in North Carolina was low, it
has the general effect of reducing the
general expense of operating the sys-
tenn. Mr.. Plant explained how he ar
rived at the earnings of the system in
North Carolina, which were 6456 as
an operating ratio-an earning ratio
being the cost Of earning 81.
In response to an inquiry by Cap
tain Thorn, general counsel of the
Southern, Mr. Plant said:
There is no method known by
which the cost to do interstate bust
ness scan be determined with mathe-
matical accuracy The local business
costs far more than the system bust
ness.
I'm local business the expenses are
in excess of through business. A
maximum of traffic is carried on
through trains, while on local trains
minimum of traffic is handled
Through trains make approximately
three times the mileage of local
trains, yet it is necessary at all times
to keep maximum forces at all sta
tions, whether there is business. or
not"
Mr.. Plant explained that there were
great many local lines in North
Carolina and that the local traffic
generally was distributed over local
or branch lines Much of this traffic
requires three or four landings, so
that the cost of handling the inter
state freight is notably higher than it
is in other states traversed by the
Southern system.
What witness termed the station
cost of the traffic was 3.ss cents on
the whole system and nearly Q cents
in North Carolina, that is, nearly
three times as much in the State as
on the system
Mr.. Plant further explained the diff
ficulties of dividing the cost of
freigni and passenger traffic, but said
that they could be approximated in
a general way so as to show the cost
of each service.
