In an article published in the
Youth S Companion of Septem-
Der 23rd, 1909, DR.. Browne, the
great medical authority on
foods, says, about brain and
muscle building
There is one kind of food
that seems to me of marked
value as food to the brain and
to the whole body throughout
childhood and adolescence
YOUTH, and that is oatmeal.
Oats are the most nutritious
of all the cereals, being richer
in fats, organic phosphorus and
lecithins. "
He says oatmeal is gaining
ground with the well-to-do of
Great Britain. He speaks of it
as the mainstay of the Scottish
laborer's diet and says it pro-

In an assault and battery case tried
in Cleveland court, the prosecuting
witness testified at length that the de-
PENDANT had knocked him senseless
and had then kicked him for several
minutes.
"If this mans attack rendered you

he kicked you when you were DOWN."
This question seemed to floor the

TREES ARE HEAVILY BUDDED.

AMI lila Ill - ~ DACGDs
From every orchardist in this end
of the Payette Valley comes the re-
port that never before were the APP
pie trees of this section so heavily
budded as they are this fall. The
trees have had a fine rest this sea-

much heavier bud this fall. OF course
there are many months yet to wait
before it is at all possible. to tell a
bout the fruit crop for next year

A young English suffragette tells of
funny incident that happened at a
meeting in the Scotch Highlands.
Speeches had been made to large
crowd. Questions had been replied to
amid applause. Imbecile young men
making remarks about minding babies
and mending socks had been silenced.
Then, just as there was a temporary
lull before the putting of resolution,
a great bucolic Scotch voice from the
back of a crowd rasped slowly in with
the inquiry, obviously the result of

JUDGE MGINTY SUFFERS LOSS.

JUDGE M'GINTY SUFFERS LOSS.
Fridays Statesman says:
"Judge McGinty suffered loss by
fire yesterday morning of the build
in South Boise which he had recently
purchased together with a stock of
stationery and groceries, the fire sup
posed to be due to an overheated
stove lighted in the rear. The loss
will probably reach about $500, this
includes the stamps and fixtures to
the value of about 800 which be-
longed to the South Boise postoffice,
which was in the same building.
The building, in the rear of which
Mr.. McGinty had arranged a sleeping
apartment, was a rather cheaply
built one, heated by stoves. Not
feeling very we'll, Mr.. McGinty arose
early in the morning and built up a
quick, hot fire. He left the building
for a few minutes and on returning
found that end completely enveloped
in flames. With the aid of neighbors,
who soon hurried to the scene, he
tried to smother or extinguish the
flames, but to no avail. South Boise
has no fire protection and by the time
the steamer from the central
fire station on this side of the river
reached the scene the building was a
total wreck and the contents entirely
destroyed.
Mr.. McGinty, who has not been at
all we'll for some time, was rendered
quite i'll from the excitement of the
fire and has been taken to st. AL
phonsus hospital for treatment.

Deufhnnd Lite
II Vuon at Chrsmas
By CLINTON DhNGERFTELD
# N5ion at Christmas

TIN THE early days of men the Lord
sent two powers on earth to have
dominion over them. One of these
was Death-the other Life.
The stern front of Life showed
what he really was: unmerciful
exacting, swift to demand obedience
to a thousand laws, swift to punish
with the keen sword Of pain when
those laws were broken.
His eyes were the eyes of a war
lord; his hand as cold as iron-and as
strong.
The tasks he set were many. Few
of these were to the liking of the chill
dren of men, though some thinkers
perceived that out of these heavy
tasks came strength, also that If one
wrestled with them stoutly one might
even master Life himself and compel
him to graciousness.
Now the other power-Death-was
a woman
Tall she was, but so perfectly
formed that her height was no blem-
ish.A Sleepy-eyed she was, but her
slow, sweet smile was 30 infinitely
tender and lovely that In the midst of
their tasks men stopped to gaze on
her as she passed.
At last one of the young men fol-
lowed her. She spoke to him-her
voice being that unspeakable music
which not even a violin can outsing-
and the young man returned into the
fields of Life no more.
Then a little child, weary of flower
gathering, pulled at her garments
hem, and all the workers held their
breath, waiting to see what Death
would do; for Life had painted her in
very evil colors.
But Death lifted the child and laid
her on her own deep bosom and sang
to her.
AS she sang the child slept, and an
exquisite smile fingered on its lips, as
though its visions were very fair.
Then Death held out the child that
the workers might see, and cried:
"Oh, ye who labor, beset with un-
ending toll. see ye how l have blessed
the child? Never more shall the heat
of summer vex her, nor the cold of
winter! | have made her deaf to sor-
row and unmoved by the vibrations ye
call Joy. Forever shall her brow go
unwrinkled, and because she hath
chosen me l will give her the key to
Heavens immortal gates"
And a worker cried:
"Ye have blessed the child because
she was your chosen one?"
The cry was question.
Said Death dreamily:
"As gave the child peace, so would
l give it to all who come to me
trusting me wholly"
Looking out across the blazing
fields she stretched her rounded arms
and cried: "Ye are all mine! Lover
of souls am II"
And with one accord they threw
down their tools and followed her into
far land, beyond the domain of Life
Now Life was vexed exceedingly by
the unfinished task. He went straight

A Cure for All Evils.

In certain parts of Worcestershire
and Staffordshire, in England, the idea
prevails that a silver coin from the
Christmas morning offertory is a SOW
ereign remedy for any i'll that human
flesh is heir to. Accordingly, any
householder who happens to have an
ailing child or other person in the
house HES him to the clergyman of
the parish on Christmas morning, and
asks as favor sacrament shilling.
The coin given in exchange has to be
obtained by collecting a dozen pennies
from as many different maidens, and
then changing the coppers fo~ a silver
shilling. For this coin the applicant
receives the coveted sacrament shil-
ling, which, on being taken home, is
hung round the ailing ones neck, and
is popularity supposed to effect rapid
and complete cure of the complaint.
no matter what it may be.

The Christmas Tree.

Every time l see Christmas tree
studded with electric lights, garlands
of tinsel gold festooning every branch,
and hung with the hundred costly
knicknacks the storekeepers invent
year by year ito make trade" until
the tree itself disappears entirely un-
der its burden, l have feeling that
fraud has been practiced on the kind
ly spirit of Yale. Wax candles are
the only real thing for a Christmas
tree, candles of wax that mingle their
perfume with that of the burning fir,
not the by-product of some coal-oil or
other abomination. What if the
boughs do catch fire? They can be
watched, and too many candles are
tawdry, anyhow. Also, red apples,
oranges and old-fashioned cornucopias
made of colored paper, and made at
home, look a hundred times better and
filter in the green; and so do drums
and toy trumpets and wald-horns, and
rocking horse reined up in front that
need not have cost $40; or anything
like it-Jacob Riis in Century

Where the Toys Are Made.

In Germany whole villages are de-
voted to the production of Christmas
toys, and their busiest time is lust
about midsummer. BY the end of An
gust the receiving depots are crammed
with Christmas clowns and Christmas
mechanical puppets, Christmas drums
and wooden horses-children's Christ
mas presents, in fact, of all sorts and
kinds. And the travellers start ont
east, west, north and south with their
Christmas samples about the time the
corn is ready for the sickles of the
veapers. In Holland; too, where more
than one town is devoted, more or
less, To the making OF Christmas dolls.
the same rule holds good. During
May June, July and August every
man, woman and child in these places
seem in some way to be occupied with
the manufacture Of miniature babies,
Even at school during these particular
months the sewing lessons are taken
with dolls clothes for models.
