xu0RK HAS BEEN STARTED
ON CALDWELL-WEISER LINE
Men are in the Field Gathering Data
in Regard to Best Route.

Men are in the Field Gathering Data
in Regard to Best Route.
The Ontario Argus says that work
has been started on the electric rail-
road to be built from Caldwell to On
tario and Weiser.
When the Argus announced cou-
ole of weeks ago that this work would
start when weather conditions would
permit it was thought to be premature
but the placing of full corps of en-
eineers in the field this week confirms
our news story.
The work is being done by the
Cleveland Construction company of
Cleveland. Ohio, with branch Office in
Boise. R. L. Ewing is the engineer
in charge, F. A. Little the construc-
ton engineer and A. F. Richmond the
locating engineer.
The men started in at Ontario Mon
day, went to Weiser and on Tuesday
started back over the routes gathering
all the information possible from
every resident of the section through
which the road may pass.
1t is expected that it will require
at least two weeks to gather this data
then when this is dissected, the route
for the road will be decided upon.
It is understood that men will work
both sides of the Snake river from
Ontario to Weiser, then south to Nys-
sa, the Kingman Kolony. Roswell and
on to Caldwell.
The engineers believe the line can
be completed to Ontario this year.
The building of the line at this time
will give an impetus to the growth Of
the suburban sections around Ontario,
furnishing rapid and frequent trans
portation as this will.
Story Confirmed.
]. F. Orr, local manager Of the Ida
ho-Oregon from Huntington to Par
ma. with headquarters in Payette re-
turned from business trip to Boise
on Tuesday evening and informed the
Enterprise that force of eight men
are in the field between Caldwell and
Weiser making maps and looking up
statistics. This is the first real move
ment taken by this company to in
quire into the ACCESSIBILITY of building
an electric line from Caldwell to Wei
ser. The information sought besides
making the maps is as to what is rails
ed by the farmers. the density of pop
ulation and where and how the pro-
ducts are marketed. The force of men
will be in Payette next Weekday

A Good Amendment.

Two little girls were hurrying to
school in Parsons, Kan, fearful lest
they would not arrive there until after
the last bell had rung for the morning
session. One said:
Lets kneel right down and pray
that we won't be tardy"
"Oh, no." said the other, "let's hike
on to school and pray while we're

FOR MILADY'S BOUDOIR.

For the dressing table there Is the
loveliest china set. the design of which
seems almost patterned to go with the
cross-stitched covers n doilies that
were shown with 1t.
Also for the dressing table are little
b-asket-covered perfume bottles that
look for all the world like miniature
bottles of wine. Some of these are
round, some three-cornered, while still
others nave handles. Two colors may
be had, green and natural. The prices
are from a quarter up.
Potpourris In odd forms are much In
vogue with our British cousins. Pa
CODA and the flagon shape in green are
quite fetching, but the style that is
perhaps loveliest of all Is a little stool
with heart-shaped openings In the
sides, n bearing the inscription,
Memories of days that were sweet
odour'd."
Sachet boxes. tied up with silk rib
bon, are very dainty.

Poverty Social.

My dear Miss Doom:

social of some kind. One of the men,
bers said a poverty social would be good,
but didn't know exactly how to arrange it.
Can you suggest any plan? R. L T.
Send invitations for affair on COM
mon brown butchers paper. Tear the
paper into the size required, for it
should have a ragged edge. The guests
should appear dressed in rags and tat
ters and patches on sleeves of dress.
The games played should be confined
strictly to subjects of poverty. Each
guest may be provided with pencil and
paper and asked to relate in as few
words as possible the cheapest pleas
ure trip he had, the cheapest meal he
ever ate and the least amount he
clothed himself on in a ear. This will.
of course cause any amount of fun
when the apers are read. The writer
of the best article produced should be
awarded a prize. The prize should be
chosen carefully, as it should not be
and should be suitable for a
in poor circumstances. Kitchen
utensils. for the m will be proper
gifts and ordinary white handkerchiefs
for the men. The supper should be
in the kitchen on bare
tables. Tin cups and plates should
be used for coffee and sandwiches.
Afterward remove the tattered gNwns,
under which the regulation party dress
is worn, walk into the dining-room and
sit down to a prettily decorated table
where the ordinary collation. should be

To Remove Superfluons Hair.
Dear Miss Doom:

1OoA ~ DCOh.
1 am a young girl of 16 and would
be considered quite good looking If 1t
weren't for q few hairs on my face
which seem to form q mustache and
look very ugly. Will you please pub
lish a way to get rid of them? Thank
ing you in advance for your kindness
in the above, I remain e. s.
Tn condition of which you speak Is
indeed annoying. The only permanent
cur is to have a physician remove the
hairs with an electric needle. This will
kill the roots and there will be little
possibility Of the hairs growing again.
There are several depilatories that will
give temporary relief. One of the best
of these is composed Of equal parts
of barium sulphide and cornstarch or
flour and enough water to make a
paste. Apply the mixture to the hairy
skin and when 1t is dry scrape 1t OF.
The hair will come with it. After the
application wash the face thoroughly
and massage it with cold cream.

Treatment for Tired Feet.

My dear MISS Doom:
WI you kindly advise me what to do
for tired, aching feet, as I stand the
greater part of the day? Thanking you
for your advice, / remain,
CONSTANT READER.
Soak your feet every night in a basin
of warm water in which two table
spoon of baking soda have been dis
solved. The warm alkaline fluid soft
n n relaxes the tissues and opens
the pores. allowing the undue quantity
of blood in the e. to dispense. Bath
ing the feet In warm salt water or in
water to which linden leaves have
been added also gives relief. Rubbing
the feet with alcohol or witch-hazel
rests them. In the morning sponge the
feet with cold water and dust both the
shoes and the stockings with a powder
made by mixing together one part Of
salicylic acid, two parts Of boracic acid
and two parts of talcum.
