BOILED DOWN..

He Is good natured whose nature 1T
is to do good.
Faith in God without friendship with
man is like poetry without print.
Nothing worries some folks more
than to find trouble taking a little nap.
1t is a good thing to watch the man
who is over nice about Indifferent
things.
We never are ready to be lifted up
until he have been thrown down a few
times.
You are not booked to heaven sim
ply because you are versed in the
heavenly book.
The soundness of your virtue does
not depend on the volume of sound
you can make.
The first step toward cleaning up
your neighbours back yard is taking a
hoe to your own.
There is something wrong with a
mans prayers when they never choke
his utterance.
It is better to give your friends a
little lift now than to put a lot of love
all over their tombstones.
He does nothing extraordinary who
despises the ordinary. Things always
are looking up to the man who tries
10 lift them up.
Some men never hear the bugle
calls of heaven because they are so
occupied with listening for the
trumpet of fame.-Chicago Tribune.

One Of the most brilliant and sue
cessful entertainments ever given in
our city was the Tots Carnival, which
was witnessed last night by a packed

some time to come. Five Thousand
roses were used for stage embellish
ment, while the costumes, dainty ant
appropriate under the calcium lights
were dazzling and attractive."-Clip

OCCASIONAL.
(By Rudyard Kipling.)

(By Rudyard Kipling.)
God of u fathers, known OF old
Lord of our far flung battle line
Beneath whose awful hand We hold
Dominion over palm and pine;
Lord God of Hosts. be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
The tumult and the shouting dies
The captains and kings depart
Still stands thine acienc sacrifice,
An humble and contrite heart.
Lord God of Hosts, be with US yet,
Lest We forget-lest We forget!
Far called, our navies melt away
Oh dune and headland sinks the
fire
Lo. all our pomp Of yesterday
Is one with Ninevah and Tyre.
Judge of the Nations, SPARE us yet,
Lest we fOrget-lest we forget!
If. Dunk with the sight of powed,
we loose
Wild tongues that have not in awe
in awe
Such boasting as the Gentiles USE,
Or lesser breeds without the Law
Lord God OF Hosts, be with US yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!
For heather heart that puts her trust
In reeking tube ana IRON shard-
All valiant dust hat builfs on dust,
And, guarding, calls not thee to
guard,
For frantic boast and foolish word,
Thy fercy on thy people, Lord!
Amen.

uampenlna Clothes.

Use hot water to dampen the clothes
that are to be ironed and you will find
1t a great deal more satisfactory than
cold. 1t dampens the clothes more
evenly and makes them easier to iron.
II the water is o hot to put the
hands in use a whisk broom to sprinkle
1t with, Many laundresses prefer the
whisk broom, as they claim that it is
less likely to make the clothes too
wet, The clothes may be ironed two
hours later with good results.

EXTRA NICE STRAWBERRIES AT
THE GEM CITY GROCERY co. 229t2

In the case of the New York man
who courted a girl eve years before
he found courage to ask her to marry
him, 1t Is safe to say that the girl was
looking around meantime and led him
on only when all her other prospects
looked hopeless.

There Is really no use killing An

that would fail, because 1t is not pos.

THE SONG OF THE SHIRT.

(By Thomas Hood
With fingers weary and worn,
With eyeijs heavy and red.
A woman sat III unwomanly rags.
Plying her needle and thread
Stitch stitch! Itch!
In poverty, hIng.-, and ,iirt.
| And still with Il :o.Ce Of 11lorous pitch
She sang the Song of the Shirt"
20 men, with sisters dear!
o men, with mothers and wives.
1t is not linen you re wearing out,
But human crea. Ires' llves!
Standardization,
In poverty, hunger ard dirt,
Sewing at once, with a double thread,
A shroud as we'll as a shirt.
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.!
My labor never flags;
And what are it's wages? A bed of
straw,
A crust of breed-and rags.
That shatter'd roos-and this naked
A table-a broken chair
And a wall SO blank, my shadow l
thank
For sometimes falling there!
20! but for one short hour!
A respite, however prief!
No blessed leisure for love or hope,
But only time for grief:
A little weeping would 'ase my heart,
But in their bri1y bed
My tears must stop. for every .rop

EXCLUDES
JAPANESE LABORE:RS
Continued from First Page.)


est officials of the two governments
have viewed the future with appre-
hension if the emigration question was
left undisposed of. With neither gov
eminent desiring war and doing all in
its power to avoid it, both might, new
ertheless, be forced into war.
The danger was that there might be
an ant%i-Japanese riot in San francisco
or elsewhere on the Pacific coast. In
this country it might easily be fol
lowed by public opinion demanding
and securing the enactment by con
gress of a Japanese exclusion bill.
This in turn would inflame public
opinion in Japan.
In settling the immigration matter,
1t is understood there is no treaty nor
even an exchange of formal notes, but
none the less, the so-called yellow
peril is at last laid to rest.

Paul Mccormick, by all rights
should be the messenger.
If the Republicans. aided by the
Democrats, propose to goad the east

the grand old man of Yellowstone

that the organization is %conjuring up.

More than halt a million dollars
has been paid out in Billings this
season for sugar beets.
The total should be swelled enor-
mously next year.
In order to do this, it behooves
the farmers to sign contracts with
the mill at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
This is a duty he owes, not only to
himself, but to the community in
which he lives.
The people Of Billings who share.
In the prosperity of the sugar beet
raiser, are not ungrateful, nor are
they idle.
Realizing the Importance of the in
dustry, they are planning great
things. It is proposed to network the
country with electric lines, and a,
maze of telephone wires, and grill.
it from end to end with trolley rails.
In order to do this, however, capital
is required, and capital only comes
where there is the greatest evidence
of business.
The contracts in the hands of the
mill at the earliest possible moment
will be the greatest argument that
may be advanced.
With this fact to work upon, it will
be possible to do much more, and
every time a pole is placed in the
ground or a rail IS laid, the farmer is
brought that much closer, in point of
time, to the city,, with its conven-
fences n Injuries, and hence his
own condition may be improved.
Similarly, the people of the city,
will find more business in the coun-
try, the land will all be purchased,
and because of its scarcity, it will
rapidly enhance in yalue-which will
make the farmer Weather than
would be possible by any other means.
But at the outset he must take the
first step, which lies in the direction
of the sugar factory, where he must
sign up the acreage he intends to cul- F
for the coming year, for IN do
ing SC he insures to himself a
market.
