OrjUin Of Vaudeville.

Writing to the Kansas City Star con-
corning the origin Of the word vau-
deville, Raymond Weeks. professor of
romance languages at Colombia uni
versfty, says "the word is derived
from the Vaux de Wire (the Wales OF
Vtre), a village in Normandy.
oliver Basselin was a French poet
who resembled Robert Burns and who
lived at Vaux de Wire in the fifteenth
century. He wrote many popular
songs, largely jolly drinking songs.
These spread far beyond the obscure
hamlet where he lived, until, finally,
the name of Vaux de Wire, by which
they were known, not being under
stood, they and similar songs were
called Vaux de Vile They are men
toned by Boileau In his Art Poetique.
Early in the eighteenth century in
France, such songs were interspersed
to vary light operettas, which later
were called by their name. The songs
Of Basselin in praise of cider and wine
are probably the finest Of their sort
in any language.
las for the fact that we have taken
vaudeville from the French. let me
observe that most Of our important
terms relating to the theater came
into English from French"

Made IL Diamonds.

Mrs. Percy V. Pennypacker the new
president of the General Federation OF
Women's Clubs, said in San Francisco
OF the new woman"
my type Of new woman has high
sense of honor. a rIGnly sense of hon.
or. She isn't like n certain old-fash-
toned type Of woman who does dis
honorable things without the least no
ton Of their being so.
"a woman of this type was playing
bridge. Her partner passed the make
TO her, and she made 1t diamonds, but
her hand, on being put down, was
found to contain only two diamonds,
both very low cards.
"'what on earth induced you to 60
diamonds on such hand as thatT her
partner asked.
Its your fault she answered pet
ulantly. why did you twiddle your
diamond ring?"

Boardinc-House SUGGESTION.

In a business women's boarding
home, with 80 to 40 permanent guests,
there was disposition to form
cliques. This was somewhat due to
the fact that women who sat together
at table day after day became well ac-
quainted with each other. while hav-
ing hardly more than bowling ac-
quaintance with those at other tables.
Then one day the manager an
nounced that, to keep things NOV
ing" there would be a reallotment of
seats at table the first day of each
month. Some murmurs of disapprov-
al greeted this. but when the first day
came everyone was greatly interested
in seeing what neighbors she had
drawn. The tables were lettered and
the seats numbered. end each guest
drew a slip bearing her designated
place.
Meals for days afterward were
much livelier than they had been.
There were new people to talk to,
new subjects coming up at each meal.
and everyone voted the innovation a
great success.-Wcman's Home Com

HANDS CRACKED AND BLEED

then would follow the trouble OF

Bile was very annoying, and disturbed

MAKING USE OF WASTE LAND
cosent Thoughts on subject That 10
Being Forced on the Attention
Of tho People.

A genuinely civilized country-eco-
| nomically speaking. at least-is one
whose land Is divided into small hold
ings. each of which supports its own
family. This Is the lands final, sta
tionary stage. 80 TO speak-The sort
Of thing one sees, for instance. in the
smiling, truly prosperous provinces
OF France. The French lend money
to all the world. They are perhaps
the most prosperous Of peoples. A
country divided into such small self
sufficient holdings Is defended In
the strongest way against financial
explosions and shipwrecks. What
ever may be the zest of cow-punching
or the charm of the old-fashioned
plantation life, no state can be said
to have reached social maturity when
1t is composed of large holdings and
its inhabitants are dependent on the
financial ups and downs of the few.
The swamp lands of the United
States are particularly good examples
Of this sort of backwardness. They
are useful for nothing but timber,
and oftentimes not for that. Anything
more unsocial or desolate than
southern cypress swamp 1t would be
difficult to imagine. Yet those who
are interested in the tremendously
important question of swamp drain
age often meet with curious local
opposition. in addition to the obvious
mechanical difficulties and the tangle
of state lines. Owners do not want
to break up their large holdings, even
though the value Of the land will be
vastly improved. They have been
big landholders for generations, and
big landholders they wish to remain,
even though much of their land be
worthless.
II is a tradition OF prejudice to
which the tendency of the age is op-
posed.
However far or near Socialism may
be, there Is no doubt that-in a broad
sense of the word-we are becoming
every day more social This may
now be a matter of taste It will
presently be a matter of necessity.
People will have to touch one another
whether they like 1t or not. For there
is less and less elbow room.-Oficer's
Weekly.

them all. One brand he takes
pride in is Straters Natural Leaf

brand probably can not be found
in another store in South Idaho.

of the streams will not stay il
the quiet water.
The finest wheat belt in the
United States lies in northern Ida
hO, IN what has become known as
the Inland Empire. There are
many large flour mills in that sec
ton, which supply greater part
of the state with Idaho flour.
About all kinds of fruit do well
in Idaho. Many car loads are ship
ped out of the state to eastern
markets each year, and some to
foreign ports. 1t commands the
highest prices owing to its super
ior quality.
The Snake river valley has for
years supplied all southern Idaho
with its melons. Other fruits are
successfully raised in this valley,
but its specially is melons, because
of the sandy quality of the soil.
Bert Perrine's Blue Lake fruit
ranch has for years been the main
fruit supply for the towns in the
southern section of the state. Cher
ries, peaches, plums, grapes and
apples are all grown in abundance
ON this ranch. Frost is almost un-
known as the trees are planted
down among the rocks, and the heat
gathered during the day is liberated
by the rocks at night, scattering
the frost.
The King Hill project, just be-
low Bliss, Idaho, promises to be
very valuable fruit land, for its
soil possesses the same sandy quail
tiles and the climatic conditions are
the same as those which have
made the Blue Lake fruit ranch
famous.
The wonderful climatic condi-
tions in southern Idaho, suggested
to the poetic mind of one of her
boosters the name of Sunny South
ern Idaho.
Idaho is blessed with a greater
variety of resources than any
other state in the Union. With her
large amount of good agricultural
and horticultural land, her fine
grazing and timber lands,her splen-
did water power for electric plants
sufficient to drive railroads, her
climate, Idaho is a very
mild winters, pleasant summers an
desirable place for people. to set
tie who are looking for homes.
In the near future Idaho will
have a large population, and will
rank as one of the best and most
resourceful states in the Union.
