Starts on Large, New
Building

E. S. Barton, representing the
Idaho National Harvester Co., was IN
Troy yesterday, looking after the in
terests Of the company. He said that
the company has started work on the
new building, and that they were pre-.
pairing for a big business in the COM
ing season. The building is to be so
x1OO feet, two stories and of reinforced
concrete. When the building is COM.
pleted. the Office will be removed into
1t aud will occupy a room 16x24 feet.
Mr.. Barton said that every one of the
little combines, put out this year, gave
the greatest of satisfaction and that
those who were fortunate in having
them, not only speak of the great sat.
lstactlon they gave as a harvester, but
as a money-saving investment as we'll.
When asked as to whether the com.
pany intends putting any more stock
on the market, Mr.. Barton said he
hardly thought they would, at least,
not at the present. Those who have
stock in this big concern can feel
mighty lucky, as the machine proved
its merits IN the harvest which has
just closed. One gentleman in the
Palouse country had in 200 acres OF
very heavy grain and he averaged IA
acres per day with the little harvester,
at an average cost of 75c per acre.
With such records as this, the mach.
inc is bound 10 come INTO general use
all over the western country.-Troy

HERE ARE T0NGUE-TWlSTERS
Great Difficulty Is Frequently Expert
enced in Pronouncing a Certain
Succession of Words.

Whether certain succession words
is difficult to pronounce or not, largely
depends upon the rate at which they
are uttered A lecturer recently had
great difficulty with a sentence in
which he described how two savages
who had been converted fell tooth and
nail upon images of their ancient
heather gods, thus totally repudi-
ating their two tutelary deities." If
he had spoken more deliberately, he
would not have had SO much trouble
getting past the concluding words. A
poet once went and stood by the sea-
shore, and imagined that in the quiet
hush of the twilight hour the sea
babe him a lingering farewell. But
the line in which he expressed his
poetic imagination is practically i'm
possible to read aloud rapidly:
THE sea ceaseth and dismisseth us
with his blessing"
This line, as Lowell said of a line
of Matthew Arnolds about Shake
speare, Kisses like an angry gander.
1t makes such an awkward collocation
Of words as SHAVE a cedar shingle
thin" seem comparatively easy to
say.
1t is not always a hard saying"
that involves the speaker in confusion.
He may trip up on comparatively
simple, easy words. The story is told
of the young actor who was promoted
fron Observation-Disclosures
part to impersonate nobleman. He
was very nervous over his new dig
nifty. When he was asked as he ap-
peared on the stage whether he had
brought any luggage, he was supposed
to answer: only two bags and a
rug" What he said was: only two
rags and a bug"
A clergyman intending to refer to
the Diety in the course of his prayer
as loving shepherd" said "shov-
ing leopard" instead. The worst Of
fender was perhaps a politician who
addressed a woman suffrage conven-
ton, and intended to be overwhelmingly
polite. He meant after somewhat
lengthy grafton to indicate that he
hoped he was not ADDRESSING weary
benches" But what he said was
"beery wenches."

SIRUP ON MONTANA ROADS
An Idea That Grew Out of the Expert
ment Made on Tennis
Court.

A scheme for improving the roads
of the state by sprinkling them with
a strip which is a refuse in the
manufacture of graduated sugar from
sugar beets will be submitted to the
good roads convention and is being
widely discussed in this section, writes
a Billings correspondent of the Los
Angeles Times.
The idea of using refuse strip on
roads grew out of an experiment made
by one of the tennis clubs here. When
the court was laid out the dust caused
considerable annoyance, also the fact
that with every rain the soil was
picked up by the shoes of the tennis
players.
In looking about for a cheap binder
one member suggested refuse strup.
1t answered the purpose admirably.
When mixed with salt and poured over
the ground to a depth of several
inches the ground was rendered i'm
pervious to water and the dust was
entirely eliminated. 1t worked virtu~
ally as we'll without salt.
1T is believed that if the country
roads are properly graded, rolled and
copiously sprinkled with this refuse.
strip they could be kept in fair con-
dition with two such treatments
year at a cost trifling when compared
with oil.

FACING THE CUSTOM HOUSE
American Women, According to
Magazine Writer, Find the Customs
Law Peculiarly Oppressive.

We American women find the Gus
toms law peculiarly oppressive be-
cause it is almost the only law with
which most of us ever come into con-
tact, says writer in the Century.
We go about our task at home, live
out our days and die, without a
thought of legal obligations. We are
proud of our freedom, too, when we
travel, glorying in it, boasting Of per-
sonal liberty as the very breath of
our national existence, demanding,
because of it, the overthrow of so
many social traditions abroad that
our less-favored sisters on the other
side regard us with awe and envy.
Then we start for home. One day a
steamship steward knocks at our
stateroom door, hands us the govern
ment's printed form of declaration,
and the Notice to Passengers" Sud-
denly, for the first time in our lives,
we find ourselves bump up against"
the law. Some of us cannot under
stand it. We tremble; our hearts
beat. We have consultations with
friends and strangers. Blood-curdliDg
stories are told. We can think of
nothing else, talk of nothing else.
Where have we packed our new
things, where our old? Will they dig
out everything? Will they believe
us? Those little presents we have
brought mare they presents until
we have declared them? And SO on,
and SO on, until our last days become
a nightmare compared with which
seasickness is a paradise. Neither is
there any man to protect us with any
of those liberal interpretations"
which stand most of us in stead. We
must go through the ordeal as we go
through death-alone!

Money and Happiness.

1t is not the mere accumulation Of
money that hurts men. 1t is the sacri-
fees they are willing to make for
money. 1t is the desire to abandon
themselves to unwholesome self-grati-
fication; to become walking appetites;
to lose all obligation for self-restraint,
all obligation for laborious days and
temperate nights-this is what per-
suades philosophers that the root of
evil is money. For without labor and
Standardization" and the acquire
ment of that strength, both moral and
physical, which comes to him who has
learned to say mo" to his own appe-
tites and his own desires, there is no
truer greatness, no advance to those
higher levels of character and spirit
ual discernment which marks men off
from one another as they mark men
off from the beasts of the field.-Pitts-
burg Press.
