lam copying some little rhymes to 60
with gifts at Christmas time, which some
OF you may like to use. They are taken
from the Ladies' Home Journal, and are
called .Gift Rhymes for Christmas Tags" :"

Tags have their advantage over ordinary
greetings. that they have practical use and
may be tied on in an artistic manner 10 the
Christmas packages, 30 thst there In no

just - well convey these poetic messages.

CALUMET BOY A DENTIST.
Charles Charter Passes Examination
at Boise, Idaho.

Word has been received in Calumet
from Charles Charter, formerly of this
city to the effect that he has passed
the dental examination of the state of
Idaho, and that he is now qualified to
practice in that state. The examina-
ton was recently conducted in Boise
Idaho. and Charter took first honors
in a class OF $50 on operating and me-
chanical work.
A rather unusual and interesting
feature of the examination, is the fact
that Charter had as his patient in the
test. no less a parsonage than Harry
Orchard. the self confessed accom-
plice in the murder of Ex-Governor
Stuenberger OF Idaho a few years ago.
As the Idaho state penitentiary is To-
Gated at Boise, where the examination
took place, the prisoners were secured
TO act as patients. Among these was
Orchard who has occupied a cell there
ever since the sensational trial of Hay
wood Meyer and Pettibone. officials
of the Western Federation of Miners,
he having turned states evidence and
entered damaging testimony against
the three men tried. Nothing daunted
the former Calumet boy performed his
work in avery capable manner.
Mr.. Charter was at one time con-
nected with the staff OF, the Miscowau-
blk club Of Calumet, and later worked
two years as an assistant in the office
of DR.. NJ. A. ThOmetz of Calumet.
When he left Calumet Charter went
to Valparaiso to btakeua preparatory
course but suffered an attack of ty-
phoid fever and upon the advice of an
physician went west to Idaho
for his health after his recovery. He
located with a brother, at, Lewiston,
Idaho, but later took UP his residence
at NePrinHe where he now resides.
