A large number of G.. A. r. and

MAUI FIRST

The Inter-Tsland Steamship Com
pany Is going to give the public an
opportunity to "see Kauai and Maui
first" In a comfortable steamer at the
very low prices of fifteen dollars. in
order TO get the rate ii is necessary

II Is seldom the public has such an
opportunity and there are many per-
sons here who have not seen Kauai
Not seen the magnificent canyons and
high peaks for which that island Is
noted. The beauties have attracted
the notice of some clever painters
and their impressions have been put
on canvas and sent out through the
world. Otto Wix seemed not to caI

devoted all of his time to painting
pictures of scenery on the Garden ISL

pleasant one and the visit to lao Val

SHAVING IS NOT FATAL.
BARRIERS Nowadays Do Not Use Ham
ners and Cold Chisels.

In reply to correspondent who says
he yearns TO have his flowing beard
removed and yet lacks the Spartan
firmness of the early martyrs to face
the ordeal and makes a pathetic ap-
peal for advice the alfalfa editor of
the Emporia Gazette unfeelingly re-
mar'is:
81 lie alfalfa editor can offer no ad-
vice or encouragement to such trem-
bling soul. 1t seems probable that he
has worn his whiskers for many years.
1t is likely that he hasn't purchased a
shave for n quarter of a century and
therefore is ignorant of the improve
ments in the art tonsorial which have
been achieved in recent years. 1t Is
no longer like going through slaugh-.
ter house to an open grave to be shay
ed by an expert barber. In fact, that
operation has been so shorn of its ter
rors that many eminent citizens con-
slider it a pleasure to visit the barber
1t is no longer necessary to strap
patient down in the chair before shay
ing him; neither is it necessary to ad-
minister anaesthetics to his whiskers.
"The man whose only reason for
wearing whiskers is the fact that he
fears the barber shop will gain little
sympathy. If he tries to explain that
he cannot shave himself without suf-
fering the agonies of the all fired he
will gain less. Such excuses might
have had some force long ago, when
BARRIERS used hammers and cold CHS
els, but science has made giant strides
in recent years, and the country is full
of painless BARRIERS, and clean shave
costs no anguish or Inconvenience"

Business men who exclude men from
their places for wearing the uniform
of the United States army. navy and
Marine corps will be guilty of a mis-
demeanor and subject to fine of $50,
hereafter. This is a new federal law
for which officers in the government
service have been working for some
time. Only recently several sailors
were barred from a skating rink in
Seattle. Despite vigorous protests,
nothing could be done. Now Uncle
Sam will protect the men who wear

ATHENA. ORE. MAR. 3I.......1911

English sparrows. pest which has
lately made appearance in Athena IN
large mum bers, are waglng war
against birds of every species save
robins, with the result that all the
old time songsters are being driven
away from their former haunts. The
robin, only, seems to be hardy enough
to combat the warlike spirit of the lit
tie brown legions. The only asset the
sparrow has to endow the community

WhistIor's White Lock,

As long as the name of James Nc
Neill Whistler lives among those who
saw him it will recall the famous white
lock which stood out so conspicuously
from the mass Of his black hair. 1t
was, as he used to say himself, "well
placed" and was always treated from
the harmonious point of view to de-
velcp its greatest effect in his appear
ance. Ono day when Dorothy Menpes,
daughter Of the we'll known English
artist Mortimer MCnpeS, was baby
and was asleep on her pillow Whistler
went to see her. \ white feather had
by chance settled on her head and lay
in a spot exactly corresponding with
the white lock on his own head.

something great" he exclaimed "for,

MICROSCOPIC MESSAGES.
How a Single Pigeon Might Carry a
Whole Library.

For more than 1000 years carrier
pigeons have been used to carry mes
sages when no other means sutficed,
and during the siege of Paris, when
1863 birds were sent out from the DOOM
ed city, one of the birds performed the
almost incredible feat of carrying to
the outside world on one trip no less
than 10000 messages averaging twenty
words each. This was 100000 words,
or the equivalent Of five or six average
novels.
This marvel was accomplished by
means of microscopic photography, the
messages being first printed with ordi-
nary type and then photographed and
rephotographed until they had been
reduced several hundred diameters.
The final photographs were taken on
films or pellicles of COllOdion, each Of
which, about two inches square, con-
tanned 10000 words. y dozen Of these
films, rolled up in a quill, weighed but
one tweAty-eighth Of an ounce. The
messages could, of course, be read
with microscope without the neces-
sity of rephotographing and enlarging.
Under favorable conditions and for
comparatively short distances pigeons
have carried as much us three-quar-
ters Of an ounce. Using the photo re-
duction method, it would therefore be
possible for Il single bird to carry
messages equal in words to no fewer
than 120 ordinary volumes.-Harpers

Oregon is getting Its full share of
the oolonists who are providing the
westbound trains. A telegram from
Louis J. Hill. president of the Great
Northern, to Manager Chapman of the
Portland commercial clut, tore the
information that over one-third of the
passengers on the Oriental Limited
one day out of the Twin Cities were
bound for Oregon. This ratio is prob
ably true of practically all of the
colonist trains coming to the north
west.

Gypsy Quesns.

On occasions America treats its
gypsy monarchs with full regal pomp.
Matilda Stanley was accorded an al
most royal funeral in 1878 at Dayton,
O., where, ten years later, another
queen was crowned with all proper
ceremonial. In England, too, gypsy
queens have received all due honor
Esther Faa Blythe, who died in 1888,
had many members of the aristocracy
on her visiting list. and she, too, had a
regular coronation. But, on the whole.
the gypsy has not had very good
time in England. An act of 1882, for
example, made it a felony without
benefit of clergy to be merely seen for
month in the society of gypsies,
while for actually hcing gypsy no
punishment was tNo severe, London
