There is always two sides to
every story. Did you ever stop to
think of the side you are on being
wrong? 1t is so easy to see through
warped spectacles. The poisoned
tongue may captivate you, but wait
till you meet the. party that the
fangs have struck and see if the
teeth are not easily extracted along
with the poison. Perry Enterprise.

5000 MILES IN AUTO
 MOBILE ACROSS COUN rkI

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 19.-Travel- ing 5000 miles in an automobile cov-
 ering the distance twice across the
 continent and touching the four cor
 ners of the United States, with no damages of any consequence to their
 machine, MT. and Mrs. M. K Rodgers
 and Mr. and Mrs. S. c. Rodgers ar
 rived in Spokane this week and are spending a week or more visiting the
 surrounding lake resorts. The trip
 was started early in May from Los
 Angeles, the home of Mir. and Mrs.
 M K. Rodgers. They travelled across
 the United States by the southern route in AS horsepower six-cylinder machine. At New York they were joined by Mr. Rodgers brother and
 sister-in-law, MT. and Mrs. s. C. Rod
 gers of Guana ajuato, Mexico. From New York the trip was started back across the continent by the northern route, leading through Chicago, Col orado, Montana and Idaho to Spokane.
 After spending some time here they will go to Vancouver, B. C., from
 which point they will travel north to
 Hidden Creek, a mining district along
 the southern houndIy of Alaska. At
 the conclusion of the northern trip
 they will turr back and follow the coast over the Pacific Highway to Los
 Angeles M. K, Rodgers is well known
 in Spokane, as he is one of the direc-
 tors of the Granby mine and interest ed in other extensive mining proper
 ties in the Occur dAlene and British Columbia districts. s. C. Rodgers
 has lived at Guanajuato, Mexico for more than 20 years, where he is the owner and manager of a mine. We
 were unable to do any development work until the settlement of the troubles in Mexico, so took the oppor-
 tunity to tour the United States for pleasure,' stated s. C. Rodgers. We
 have visited many beautiful places during the course of our long journey but ] think there are none that will compare with the Inland Empire, es- pecially through northern Idaho and Spokane"

Our Civilization.
lBoston Advertiserl

(Boston Advertiser.)
 The time is coming-perhaps is is not so very far away, now-when it will be impossible for thinking and intelligent men and women to under stand why the present generation consented to such an utterly illogical. unfair and absolutely crazy method of settling international disputes. The future generations will be as amazed at this form of brutality and fanati- cism, as we of today are, at the story of the prosecutions of the early Chris tians, trial by torture, the witchcraft superstitions, the auto de fe or the Titus Oates hysteria We talk of the horrors of the Middle Ages but our own generation, eventually, will pre- sent the same spectacle of human ignorance fashioning creulty and in- justice in the name of high and lofty motives.
