FLOWERS are also raised for com
mercial purposes. In Hindoostan
roses are grown in greater profusion
than anywhere in the world. Whole
fields are cultivated for the purpose
of making Alta of Roses, and to
make ons half ounce Of this extract
it requires two hundred thousand
rose blooms. From the deadly night
shade the chemist extracts Atropine,
one of the deadliest poisons known,
and one used so much in connection
with morphine. From the juice of
the poppy the oriental extracted his
opium which when properly prepared
and taken, lulled him to sleep to the
sounds OF distant music and pro-
duced oblivion. From the dandelion,
the lobelia. digytalis and many other
flowers extracts are made that enter
into the physicians prescriptions.
Flowers also have expression of
countenance as much as men or an
FINALS. Some seem to smile; some have
sad expression; some are passive
and Indifferent: others are again
plain, honest and upright. like the
sunflower and the holyhocl1. They
also have dispositions and some have
to be handled with care lest you
wound them. while others are indie
pendent and courageous and grow
without much kindness shown them
FLOWERS have also been the sub

Chauscer, Coleridge, Longfellow
Whittier. Moore, Keats and even By

many a sonnet, and the Bard of Avon
makes use of them in almost every

study of flowers offers unlimited OPP
portunities for investigation and re
search. In It we see the exempliflca-
tion of human life from the first
forms of life to the completion there
of. Flowers are living things They
are living in just the same sense that
you and / are. They are born and
have origin the same as We do. They
have father and mother. They
likewise live by eating. They have
months ond somachs which devour,
digest and assimiate the food sup
piled to them. These mouths and
stomachs exist in the shape of leaves.
They also drink and take moisture
with their roots. Flowers also marry
and rear families in a general sense.
They have two distinct sexes. male
and female, or staminate and pisti-
late, sometimes separated on differ
ent plants, but more often united ON
the same stem, or even combined In
the same flower. The beautiful bios

and call upon the birds, the bees and
butterflies to help them, and in their
efforts TO suck the honeS of their
music VOWS they carry the fertiliz;
ing powder called pollen. from one
flower to another, and thus by cross
fertilization they reproduce them
selves. They produce their offsprings
and then cast them off after birth to
hustle for themselves. This is es-
pecially true of the berries aud fruits,
which are but the fruition. the pro-
duct of the whole, and where a berry
might be raised in Florida today, It's
offspring may be shipped to Michi-
gan and there replanted to grow
again and multiply.
"God in His infinite wisdom saw

flowers Just as He did among His
children. Did it ever occur to you
why the most brilliant and attractive
flowers were not as fragrant as the
less brilliant? The poppy the holly
hook, the gardenia and the dahlia
for example. Whereas the tube rose,
the jasmine and lily, although not so
brilliant in coloring possess a sweet
ness and fragrance indescribable?
The cause is this-howers which pol
lenize themselves by the means of
the winds are not dependent upon
outside means for reproduction, but
the more brilliant ones must be mare
attractive in order to draw the at
tention of the birds and bees and
butterflies. What they lack in sweet
ness is made up in beauty. Flowers
that bloom by night are generally
white and very fragrant This Is for
the same reason. for II they were red

HANDSOME CARS
PALOUSE BRANCH

Information has been received in
Lewiston that two of the passengers
on the Spokane train will be replaced
by one of the large arA1 handsomely
furnished cars Identical with those in
use on the North Coast limited. The
new coaches are so feet in length and
have practically the same seating ca
pacity as two of the coaches now in
use.
One of the new cars reached Lewis
ton this afternoon on train No. and
will be in regular service on the Pa
louise branch in the future. The in
stallation of the new car service Is
probably a preliminary move toward
the installation of the buffet car serv-
ice which was reported some time ago
to replace the dining car service now
in use between Spokane and Joel. 1t
is intended to bring the buffet cars
into Lewiston and the reducing OF the
number of passenger coaches will ma
terially facilitate the proposed new
service.
other alterations in the Lewiston
territory are the changing Of the Cul-
desac train from the third to the frst
class service. This train commence
the carrying of mail from Lewiston to
/ Culdesac and way points this week
and the proposed change In the
class of the train may mean the. In
stallation of the extra train which was
4 announced several weeks ago. The
new train has not previously been in
stalled on account OF the demand foi
engines on the main line, but the heav.
traffic on that branch will soon neces
state the extra service.

Attempt to Put Through A Fraudulent
Timber Filing

final proof He said he got his final
papers at the land once.
At this juncture the witness denied
that Robnet told him that he, Robnet,
would have to go to Curtis Thatcher
and borrow the money with which to
take up his claim. Then came the at
tempt to itemize the $42S note given
by the witness. One of the items was
1928. The witness said he never knew
and does not now know what 1t was
that Robnet told the witness that the
money was commission for Mr..
Thatcher for advancing the money,
that people did not like to advance
money on timber claims because of the
risks of fires. This is the sum that
the prosecution said yesterday the wit
ness had been f1eeced out Of
Had Trouble in Selling.
Ferris then told Of his attempts to
sell his land, his failures, how fore
closure proceedings were begun by w
F. Kettenbach to realize on the note
and how Kettenbach told him that he
could not pay him anything for the
land because he had been put to con-
siderable expense because Of the legal
proceedings and the paving Of taxes
On further cross examie%tion Ferris
declared time and again that he had
no prior agreement with Robnet rela-
tive to any disposition Of his claim
after he might acquire title to It.
Taken as whole Ferris was not a
good witness for the prosecution on
cross examination. Not only did he
contradict himself at times, but his
memory was too poor or too vivid
upon certain points to make a favor
able impression upon the jury.
Joel H. Benton was the next witness
called. He was still on direct exam
ination when court adjourned until
tomorrow morning. Under the pro-
lection of bailiffs four of the Jurors
attended the ball game between the
University Of idaho and .Kendrick. and
eight participated in the Memorial day
exercises at the park.

victed of subornation of perjury, said

ing falsely incidental to taking up a
timber claim, "Oh, that's all right. All
you've got to do is to keep still. Mr.,

Officer will put you through. We have
got him paid for that"

to reassure her everything would be
all right When Mrs. Harris refused
10 take up claim, she declares Rob
net said to her: IF you don't I'll make
trouble for you, I'll put you behind the
bars When witness insisted upon
first consulting with her attorney

first going upon the land he said to
her: "You stay away from Attorney

was defrauding the government, but
added that so long as they all kept
quiet and told the same story that
everything would come out all right. >

solicited her to take UP a timber
claim while they were seated in a pew
in the Lewiston M e. church, that he
wanted her daughters to take UP
claims, but when told that they were
