The reporter had not imagined that it
was necessary to go so closely into the

the alignment between the two cities
The distance between Butte and
Boise by this survey is S66 miles. This
distance is divided into sections and
the cost of construction of each sec

country has been carefully mapped
and the line plainly indicated. Section

the probable freight tonnage care
fully estimated. The timber zones have

considerable interest to the gentler sex,
hence Fashion Show is the barometer

had been deserted by all of her friends.
She was worn and scraggly and sick,
but the kitties were round and fat and
gray and just as pretty as toy cats.
or several days they did not see any
one but their mother. She would sneak
In and out like a shadow. But one
afternoon she did not come home at
all. That evening when the kittens
were ready to die of hunger, and they
had cried their eyes nearly open, and
were so hOarse that they could scarcely
meow, they were pulled out into the
daylight.

some one say, and before they knew it
they were carried up some stairs and
into a warm room. Some one handled
them and petted them, and suddenly
the same voice cried out: ''Oh, see

Then poor little Six-toes was hauled
out and handed back and forth for the
people to examine That was just the

again, but the three that were left

He was awkward and his feet looked
like mittens, and he stumbled about.
and the other kitten would laugh at
him. Even the little girl who owned
them would point at Six-toes when any
one came around and tell of his de-
fCrmity.
The other kitties bit Six-toes and
crowded him away from the saucer of
milk, and treated him shamefully, but
he did not complain. He made up his
