More and more as we grow we appreciate the finer traits that are in human nature. Men go-- ing out into life never forget the mother who stays at home, and who has presented. to them a nature with reason dominant with a high moral sense, with re- fined and sweet affections, with taste, with patience, with gentle ness, with self sacrifice, and with disinterstedness. A man may go through all the world, he may run through every stage of belief and disbelief, but there will be one picture that he can. not efface. Liveing or dying, there will rise mp before him like morning star the beauty of that remembered goodness which he called mother"

Wear a good countenance; It is your solemn duty. If you have no sunshine of your own to give the world, give it a little moon shine. If the sun has gone dow n we look for the moon; if there is no moon we make out with the stars; but when even the stars give no light. how desolate is the night. To have sunshine about you must be happy from within. To have as much as moonshine in you you must have a radiant face, though the heart may be sad and perplexed. You can then reflect the gladness of others. To have the starlight is better than the darkness of a frown, though it may consist of nothing more than the diamond glitter of tear of sympathy.

Bought An Axe.

A man went in a hardware store and said he wished to pur- chase an axe. Being shown the article and informed that the price was S1.15 he said; Why, I can get that same kind of an axe from a mail-order house for 90 cents. "
 "Very well, ;" said the hard ware man. I will give you it for the same, providing you will do the same with me as you would with them ;
 All right" " replied the custo- mer as he handed over a dollar bill, the merchant giving him back 10 cents in change.
 Now" said the hardware man, II want 25 cents more to pay express charges" which the purchaser gave him. How much did your axe cost you?"
 "One dollar and fifteen cents," the man answered.
 Very good. Now give me the 5 cents for money order fees and  postage, which the purchaser had to hand over. Now how much did your axe cost you.
 One dollar and twenty cents. said the customer.
 Not so cheap after all," said the merchant. Wherepon he picked up the axe, wrapped it in paper, marked the purchasers name on the package and tossed it back on the shelf and told the customer to call for it in 10 days, as that would be as soon as he could get it if he had ordered it from the mail order house.

Very respectfully. D. T. RODGERS, President.

If you want to go to Joyville take the Smiling high road past Gladstone creek. Keep to the right all the way. If you meet a poor woman with a basket, carry it for her. When you meet a man, say "Howdy" Ifyou stub your toe, whistle. If it rains, croon a song. If you are cold run little and think about some thing that will make your heart glow. If the way is long, recall how you trudged every Sunday night up to your best girls house and never got tired. If a dog barks at you, don't throw stone at him. Snap your fingers and say, Good dOggie." If you can do all this, you'll get to Joyville, all right and it's about the only way you ever will get there.

Miss Floy Echlin.

The sooner children are brought to understand that idle ness is a crime, and that no amount of fine culture can make them pass for valuable in the worlds eye if they are unable to earn livelihood, and so must become hangers on " for others to support, the better for them. That daughter who helps her mother cook and scrub. is far more worthy than she who only paints and plays, and obliges her overworked father to pay ser want that she may not soil her dainty hands.
 J. E. Deeter drove his beauti- ful team to Little Rock last week where he sold them for the nice sum of $50000 dollars, This is proof of Carlisle's onward move for better stock and should pro mpt others to abandon the idea of raising scrub stock.
 The smiling face of Thomas Skinner is back in the City Bar Der Shop. The Independent joins his friends in welcoming him back to Carlisle.

The following beautiful senti- ment is from the pen of Senator Bob Taylor: II would rather fill my purse with money and keep it's gates ajar to my happy girls while they yet finger under my roof than to clutch it with a miser's hand uutil all the harp strings of youth are broken and all it's music forever fed ! would rather spend my last nickel for bag of striped mar bles to gladden. the hearts of my barefooted boys than to deny them their childish pleasures, and leave them a bag of gold to quarrel over when 1 am dead. I IIabhor the pitiless hawk that circles in the air only to swoop down and strangle the song of the innet or bury it's talons in the heart of the dove. I despise the soulless man whose greed for gold impels him to strangle the laughter and song of his own family

Charity

Now that the season approx ches when, more than at all other times the love within us flows ever and goes out to all. both rich and poor; when, like the sparkling fountain, it springs up toward the heaven, and having received the blessing of the sun shine, it falls to the earth, re- freshing and gladdening every life within it's reach,-it is good for us to purify our hearts, so that the love sent forth may be instinct with the Divine bless ing
 Blessed be thou. o Charity" says an old Thibetan writing, thou whf> not regarding re ligions or names, frontiers or nations, comest with thy i'm maculate wings and coverest the poor being of earth who is without shelter, without support without repose, without bread. Blessed thousand times. for thou providest the means of living in Hopo and of feeding on true Faith. :"
 Truly a vivid picture of the spiritual condition of the mass of men on earth.
 In the Orient the giving of charity is accounted the most sacred of virtues, for it is un- derstood that by giving, man symbclizes the gift of God, eternal life," and the oriental knows that he has received, while we are still asking.
 The disciple seeks therefore to give, as the Lord gives freely and looking for nothing in return; secretly, hiding the knowledge of the sacrifice he makes from all, especially from the recipient; and forgetting, if indeed he ever knew, that he suffered in giving.
 He does not donate large sums to the nation or to local charities in order that long articles may be written in his praise; he does not exact service from those he has befriended; he makes no claim on the greatitude or friendship or gsod words of those who have received his bounty. If they are grateful. so much the better for them, and he rejoices; but he knows that he has received his reward"
 You will never hear from the disciple long list of services rendered, for these things do not rest in his memofy; give and forget, is his motto, when ever the opportunity comes for aiding a brother.
 With love and compassion in his heart, he gives of whaS he has, but with judgment, not in discriminatory No one goes empty away, and all receive good measure, running over; for his heart is full and he borrows from it's depths comfort and solace and joy for the weary From the Oriental Esotenic Bulletin, Washington, D.

RAILROADS WILL TRY TO
0BSERVELAW

4 Washington dispatch states that
qualification is expressed by the interstate
commerce commission over conditions
that have arisen within day or two. In
concrete form, they mean that American
railroad officials are doing all in their
power to meet situations that have de-
veloped under the new laws applying to,
interstate traffic
Information has reached the commits
sion that the Baltimore & Ohio proposes
to put into effect at once, throughout its
system, the so-called "nine-hour law"
which, by its terms, does not become op-
erative until March 4 next. The law
limits the hours of the service, particu-
larry OF engineers, fremen, dispatchers,
railroad operators, tower and signal
operators.
Already the commission has set Feb
ruary q as date on which it will hear
formal applications for an extension of
time for the operation of the nine-hour
provision. The time may be extended as
to those who are able to show the COM
mission good cause for extension. How
ever. the Baltimore & Ohio does not pur-
pose to await the hearing.

W. c. Lindsey left last night for east
ern Oregon, where he goes on land bust
ness.
The masquerade. ball given by the band
boys last Friday night brought out an I'M
usually large crowd of dancers, who
spent pleasant evening. Many of the
dancers wore odd and fantastic costumes,
which added to the interest of the event.
The entire band furnished the music for
the opening numbers, after which the big
band orchestra took up the work and
completed the program.
This office has received copy Of the
bill introduced in congress by Senator
Jos. NJ. Dixon, the purpose of which is
to permit persons who had instituted con-
test proceedings for the purpose of secur-
ing preference right OF entry on public
lands, which were afterwards set aside
for the establishment of the Cabinet and
Kootenai forest reservations, to perfect
title thereto.

PRISONER ATTEMPTS
TO ESCAPE.

Marshal VIM. Parent went to Fernie
last Friday to get Fred Fisk, for whom a
complaint had been sworn to by r. r.
Ricketts, charging him with robbery.
Fisk had been apprehended at Fernie
shortly after arriving there. 1t is
claimed that he stole watch and chain
and some barber's tools.
While on the return trip, between Fer
ME and Gateway, the prisoner, who was
being escorted to the line by Canadian
official, accompanied by Marshal Parent,
made rather sensational attempt to es-
cape. So far as the Canadian official
was concerned his attempt might have
been successful, but Parent did not in
tend to be shaken. While between the
two points named Fisk jumped from the
rapidly moving train, thinking, no doubt,
that neither one of the officials would
attempt such a feat, and that his getaway
would be easy. In this he Was mistaken,
however, for he had hardly hit the
ground before Parent unloaded and tore
up few rods OF the right of way, and
again boarded the, train with his man.
Fisk is the man who gave the town
officials considerable trouble several
weeks ago, when he was arrested and
ordered out Of town. Later he served
out sentence IN the county Jail.

thorough search he was found with his
face fast in two pieces of pic. He was
finally overcome by the other members
OF the party, and the start for home was

TOWN DADS LEGISLATE
Several Ordinances Are Acted Upon,
Some Of Them in Interest Of
Morality.


A special meeting OF the town council
was held last Friday night, when the or
dinance raising licenses was finally passed.
The ordinance raises the wholesale liquor
license 100 per cent, so that wholesale
dealers will now have to pay $500 per
year. All other licenses are raised so per
cent. The ordinance also defines what
constitutes rooming house, and here
after all persons who rent three rooms or
more will have to pay license, which is
graded according TO the number Of rooms.
An ordinance was introduced at the
meeting for the regulation OF rough
saloons. which provides fine of $25 for
the first offending saloon, $50 for a second
ofiense, while for third ofensc $50
fine will be imposed and the license re-
voked. The same ordinance provides
that in applying for license to conduct
a saloon it shall be necessary for the ap-
plicant to obtain the approval of the
mayor, the president of the council and
the town marshal, with the privilege of
appealing to the council in case their APP
plieation meets the disspproval Of any OF
the above named officials
A petition was received from the saloon
men of the town protesting against the
passage of an early closing ordinance. 1t
is not probable that anything will be
done in this respect at present.
An ordinance was introduced granting
a telephone franchise to Carl Green,
which was read and referred to the or
dinance committee.
