The Power of Riuht.

AS | myself look at it, there is no
fault nor folly of my life-and both
have been many and great-that does
not rise up against me, and take
away my JOY and shorten my power
of possession of sight, of understand
Ing And every past effort of my life,
every CLEAN of righteousness or good
in it, is with me now, to help me
In my grasp Of this art and it's vision.
So far as | can rejoice In or interpret
either, my power Is owed to what Of
right there is in me.
! dare to say 1t, that, because
through all my life | have desired
good and not evil; because have
been kind to many; have wished to be
kind to all; have willfulIy injured
none, and because have loved much,
and not selfishly; therefore, the morn
ing light is yet visible to me on those
hills, and you who read may trust my
thought and word in such work as I
have to do for you. and you will be
glad afterward that you have trusted
In them.-Ruskin.

MAKING A RIFLE FIT BETTER
Have the Tangs on the Frame Bent
Down Until You Have the Drop
You Want, Says Expert.

Compare the rife and the shotgun
and you will almost invariably find
the rifle has much less drop OF stock
than has the gun. This Ia, Of course
due to the rifle makers not wanting
to carry large assortment of rifles
fitted with stocks OF different shapes.
perhaps following the idea that most
people have that shotgun must ft.
but any old rifle Is good enough. And
that Is what most Of them get. Also,
II you'll watch the owner handle the
gun and the rife you'll find there is
big difference. With the gun built
for him he keeps his head up and
his eye on the target. With the rife
he puts his head down and hunts for
the sights--and even then complains
of over shooting 1t doesn't occur to
him that this Is due to the too high
modern front sight and the too
straight stock
There Is only one way to remedy
this latter difficulty without giving up
your last cent to have a special stock
built for you. Simply have the tangs
on the rife frame bent down until
you have the drop you want--that
is. the one that brings the sights In
line 80 that you wouldn't be both

but could see the outlines Of the
game. ! have had this done on sew

CONG'L CHURCH
ELECTS OFFICERS
EXCELLENT PROGRAMME REND-
Erred, DELICIOUS LUNCHEON
SERVED.

The Annual meeting Of the Congre-
gational church Thursday night, last
week. Notwithstanding the elements,
cold and storm, was the most largely
attended i'm the HISTORY of the church.
A basket supper was served at $3.50,
the tables being in l. shape, giving
room for over 60 at a sitting, and
nearly filled a second time. Several
families came from a distance In the
deep mud.
Nearly all remained to the bust
ness meeting. The reports Of the
pastor, chairman of the trustees, B.
T. Bjoduson, OF the S. s. by the su-
penntendent, o. e. Norell, and the
treasurer, Nellie Lu Eaton. OF the
Ladies' Aid by the secretary, Mrs.
G. II. Stewart, and the Endeav0r by
Mrs. C. II. Mason, showed the variety
and fullness of the church life and
activities. The report of the, church
treasurer, Mr.. Noren, showed all cur
rent expenses paid. Credit is given,
not only to the generous givers and
the faithful officers, but also to the
Duplex system of envelopes used the
past year and to be used the coming
year.
After the election OF officers, the
hour was late for the musical program
but the audience was so much pleased
with the Ladies' Quartet that the en-
core was continuous until the second
selection was given. Miss Blunk, and
Mesdames Stewart, BriegMb and Eat
ON forming the quartette, and Prof.
Caldwell organist.
The officers of the church elected
for The ensuing year, are as fol-

The Honorable Board Of Trustees.
Mountain Home, Idaho.
Gentlemen: On Jan. 6, 1911, your
Honorable Board authorized me to
make a complete survey, estimate OF
cost and report for a sewerage and
water. works system for the town OF
Mountain Home. In pursuance OF thia
authorization | arranged at once for
the field work which was not started
until january 23rd ON account Of un-
favorable weather conditions. Mr.
w. B. Kimmell was in charge OF the
field work, an engineer of high abiaity
in this class of work
The surveys have been completed ,the
contours plotted and the computation
made for both systems, and beg to
submit herewith my report ON the
water works system accompanied by
an estimate of cost and a plan show
ing the distribution piping; and my
report ON the sewerage system, with
an estimate of cost and separate
plan showing the lines Of the main
and collect ting sewers.
With regard to the proposed system
of water supply, the only uncertain
factor is the exact location of the
source of supply, and the storage
tank, which will be located as near
the source Of. supply as local con-
dittons viii alloW, SO that the cost
OF daily use will be reduced to a mimi
mum. For my knowledge of the terri
tory TO the north and weStOf the
town and the various experiences dn
we'll driving thereon, I am as con.
fident as can be, without actual ex-
pertinent, that satisfactory and ad-
equate supply of pure, fresh water fol
domestic use and fire protection can
be found within reasonable distance
of the corporate limits of the town
if not actually within the same. The
final location of this source of supply
can only be determined by actual
we'll dIillng.
With regard to the proposed sys-
tenn of sewerage, the only uncertain
factor is the exact point at which the
sewage can best be disposed of.
AS state i'm my report on the sewer
age system the correct and accepted
method of disposal of sewage under
conditions such as those existing at
Mountain Home, is by dischargfng

DOINCS IN THE
LEGISLATURE
Progress of Work of the Law
Makers at the State Capitol.

Governor Hawley has signed bill
creating a new county called BonLlr
willie which was formerly a part OF
Bingham. Yhe new county lis named
in honor of Captain Bonnvile and
the county seat will be Idaho Falls.
The Senate having passed reso-
tuition providing for Senator from
each county, it is considered not
improbable that several other bills
providing for county division, will
be introduced at this session. And
another bin providing for three rep
resentatives from each county, has
ALSO beeen introduced which will no
doubt aid materially i'm splitting UP
counties. Lewis county with Nez
Perce as county seat, has already
been formed from a portion OF Idaho
county and a division of Blaine coull-
ty has also been discussed.
Representative Sorenson OF Nez
Perce county Introduced bill rea-
ting to marriage licenses and which
is now before the House. The bill
provides for thirty day intervention
between the issuance of license
and the ceremony of marriage and
makes it misdemeanor for any cler-
gyman or other qualified officer to
perform such ceremony before the
expiration of 80 days. The bill in
this instance resembles laws of sever
al European countries as we'll as OF
many states but lis objected to by
many in that it does not provide for
sufficient publicity, the principal OBJ
ject aimed "a.
The Bill introduced by Represent
ative Davis, prohibiting the purchas-
ing of Carey Act land by State en-
ployees or agents or deputies of same
and providing for punisbments in the
way of a fine Of not more than 200

itentiary NOT to exceed five years,
seems plausible and will, no doubt,
be source of much public benefit
The Senate Bill relating to the sale
of public lands has provoked much
discussion by the adherents OF both
sides.
Senators Eckert and Hormibrook,
who seem to working for legislation
that will be of much benefit, have idl-
troduced bilD providing for the ex-
termination of noxious weeds, one of
the most important to be considered
i'm am arid region where seeds are
so easily carried hither and yon by
irrigation water.
Another bin providing for the elec-
tion of County Commissioners by di-
rect votes, that is, voters will vote
only for tthe commissioner from his
district. has been introduced and will
we are sure prove popular and an
improvement ON the present system.

When Rubber Was a PIaythino.

Whs1 Rubber Was Plaything.
When rubber was first discovered 1t
was playthirg. The discovery was
made during Columbus second voy-
age, when Herrera found that the ma
tives of Hayti played game with
balls made of the gum Of tree"
Even as early as the beginning Of the
seventeenth century. however, the
Spaniards used rubber to waterproof
their cloaks, but the fact attracted no
-yention in the old world, and 1t was
Got until the eighteenth century that
the rubber industry began. Very
early in history there was an oil ex-
tracted from rubber which was taken
incidentally with cocoa.
