John Overseth has moved to Canton
from his big farm down in Eden, and
occupies his mothers residence on
the corner Of :3rd and Milwaukee
streets. James and Henry are going
to farm Johns four hundred acres
and their mother, Mrs. Ole Overseth,
goes down to keep house for the ener-
getic and industrious young farmers,
neither of them having reached the
age. We delight to see the
energy and grit displayed by the boys
and we feel satisfied they will succeed.
John comes to Canton to escape some
the hard work and overwork of the
big farm. He is still a young man
but he has accomplished as much in
farming In ten years as most men do
in 30 years, and he felt that there was
use killing himself at 30, but he
just couldn't be idle on the farm, SO
he came to Canton twenty miles
away.

ARBOR DAY.
Commended to school Children
by the President.

Hon. II. A. Ustrud, state superln-
tendent of public instruction, Is CIV
ing circulation to the following letter
from the president of the United
States;
TO the School Children of the Unit
ed States: Arbor Day (Which means
simply tree day') is now observed IN
every state in u runiOn-and NANNY
in the schools. AT various times from
January TO December, but chiefly IN
this month Of April, you give DAY or
part Of a day TO special exercises n
perhaps to actual tree planting, IN
recognition of the Importance or trees
to us as a nation, and or what they
yield in adornment, comfort, ana use
full products to the communities IN
which you live.
1t is well that you should celebrate
your arbor day thoughtfully. for with
in your lifetime the nation s need OF
trees will become serious. we or an
older generation can get along with
what we have, though with growing
hardship; but in your full manhood
and womanhood you will want what
nature once so bountifully supplied
and men so thOughtleSSly destroyed;
ana because vi lIldt NdlIl you II "
proach US, not for what we ave used,
but for what we have wasted.
For the nation as for the man or
woman and the boy or girl, the road
to success is the right use of what we
have and the improvement OF present
opportunity. If you neglect to pre-
pare yourselves now for the duties n
responsibilities which will fall upon
YOU later. if you do not learn the
things which YOU will need to know
when your school days are over, you
will suffer the consequences. So any
nation which in its youth lives only
for the day, reapS without sowing,
and consumes without outstanding,
must expect the penalty OF the prodl-
gal. whose labor could with difficulty
find him the bare means of life.
A people without children would
face a hopeless future: a country with
out trees is almost as hopeless: for
estS which are so used that they a
not renew themselves will soon van
iSh, and with them all their benefits.
a true forest is not merely a store
house full of wood, but. as it were, a
factory of wood, and at the same time
a reservoir of water. When you help
to preserve our forests or to plant ne W
ones you are acting the part OF good
citizens. The value of forestry de-
serves, therefore. to be taught in the
schools. which aim to make good citi-
zens Of you. If your Arbor day exer
ciSes help you to realize what bene-
fits each one Of you receives from the
forests, and how by your assistance
these benefits may continue, they will
serve a good end.

among their many duties are expected
to report on the personality Of the
teachers in their district. It ls not al
ways easy to get "a line" on that quail

the work. One Of the superintendent,
however, ia never satisfied until he has
made the test for orderliness by asking
the teacher to open his or her desk.
One day he found one of his fair sub
ordinates with things in great confu-
sion She was evidently violating

Prominent noses seem to have been
the property Of many great men. Ly-
curgus and Scion had noses six inches
in length, and Ovid was surnamed
NasO on account Of his large nose.
Sciplo Naslca derived his name from
his prominent olfactory organ, and
Alexander the Great and Cardinals
Wolsey and Rlchelieu all had large
noses On the medals Of Cyrus and
Artaxerxes their noses came clear out
to the rim Of the coin. Washington's
was the true aquiline type, indicative
Of flrmness and patience, as was the
nose Of julius Caesar. Mohammed had
q singular nose 1t was so curved that
q writer has told US that the point of 1t
seemed continually striving to insert
itself between his lips. The noses of
Franklin, Shakespeare and DIR. John
son all had wide nostrils. betokening
strength and love of thought. The nose
OF Napoleon was exquisitely though
firmly chiseled. He often said, "Glve
me q man with plenty Of noseV" Fred
erick the Great had so large a nose
that Lavater offered to wager that
blindfolded he could tell II among TO-
900 by merely taking II between his
thumb and forehnger.

cautiously. A large hy was buzzing
over them, and Mendelssohn was anx-
ious to catch the true sound Of the In
sect's hum as it gradually drifted far
Their away. Many days later when the
overture had been completed the artist
called his friends attention to that
passage in progression where the viO-
loncello modulates in the chord Of the
seventh of the descending scale from
B minor to F sharp minor. There,
that's the 6y that buzzed past us at

LEWISTON TO BOISE
Electric Line Projected Be-
tween Those Cities.

Spokane, Wash, Feb. L.
The dream Of the citizens of the
Panhandle of Idaho Of direct line
from Lewiston to Boise, the capital
Of the state, seems in fair way of at
last being realized.
The Lewiston and Southeastern
Electric Railway company, which has
already under contraction over 1876
miles of line in Idaho, connecting
Lewiston, Grangeville and Nez Perez,
and which some time ago made a re.
connaisance Of the proposed air line
from Lewiston TO Boise, has, it is un-
derstood, begun the work of locating
line between these two cities.
w. P. Wood, the chief engineer of
the Lewiston and Southeastern system,
was in Spokane yesterday and stated
that 1t was the purpose Of bis com
pany to begin the work upon the
Lewiston-Boise line Immediately.
The line, as outlined by Col. Judd
aon SpoRord, the promoter and general
manager Of the Lewiston and South
eastern company, would be as straight
as is possible to build a road through
the mountains of Idaho.
1t would be line of easy grades
and light curves and would pass
through a country rich in timber and
grain and which is not touched by
any other transportation sfystem-s
virgin field.
The cost of the line has not been
finally estimated, but Mr.. Spofford,
during a recent visit to this city, said
1t would cost several million dollars.
The building of this line would enable
the residents of the panhandle of Ida
no to visit Boise without making {
journey Of SO hours through Montana
and Idaho, or through Washington
Oregon and Idaho, by one of which
routes IL is now necessary to go to ge
to Boise.

Think Lightly Of Il.

The road to home happiness Is said
to lie over small stepping stones. So
small sometimes are the causes of our
unhappiness that we wonder the conse-
quences can be so great. One great pal
liatlve Is the determination by every
member of the family not to dwell
on the circumstances, whatever they
may be. which are alike sad to all. II
II be poverty let 1t be cheerfully and
silently borne; II 1t be the i'll temper Of
grandpa try to make a joke Of It. II 1t
be something infinitely worse and also
hopeless accept 1t bravely; do not talk
Of It. Try in the family circle to ignore
1t. Accept every little enlivening cir
cumstance. Let In all the sun and air.
Work on cheerily and hopefully, know
Ing that there Is the ray of sunshine
somewhere that has only to be looked
for to be found.

that they are made from different
