ST. VALENTINE.

st. Valentine, an ecclesiastic,
was beheaded at Rome during
the reign OF Emperor Claudius
eco and was early canonized.
He was famous for his love and
charity, and the custom OF choOs-
ing Valentines upon his festival,
took rise from that. In 0lden
times Valentine was ii living
person. The names OF IA select
number OF young women were
put into box or jar and then
withdrawn by young men. The
two thus paired we're Valentines.
OF this ancient ceremony, the
words "Be my Valentine" have
survived, and can be found on the
dainty silk and lace paper re-
membranes and pretty cards OF
today.

The General Arrangement.

The arrangement and construction
of the buildings are most interesting.
A large number of shacks have been
built at a little distance from CEN
traf main building. Those set aside
for the men are at one end, and those
for the women at the opposite end of
the row. This main building contains
the quarters for the physicians, their
offices, the dispensary, very attrac-

general dining-room to which all the
patients able to do so come for their
meals. Connected with this building
by a fairly long hall is the splendid

County has submitted report to the
board of county commissioners in
which he estimates that there are 49,
600 acres of land in Nezperce county
that has escaped taxation due to de-

county assessors. He explains that
much as 200 acres. 1t is stated that

agement of magnitude. He built the

Then he undertook the building of

been engaged on the enterprise just
about a year. and today announcement
is made that twelve miles of the road
will be completed within four months
and to be steadily extended until the

patients are expected to pay a reg

go anywhere for their treatment have

Finish Canal in February.

Captain S. " Winslow, master of the
United States dredge boat Wallowa, en-
gagged in the improvement work on the
Snake and Columbia rivers, was at
Cello February 5th when the last
blast on solid rock in the construction
of the Cello canal was set off, and he
predicted today that the canal would
be completed and ready for operation
in February, 1915. The finishing of
this work will afford an open water
way to the sea for the inland empire
region, reaching as far as Lewiston
The opening of the canal will be
marked by an all-water excursion
from Lewiston to San Francisco. The
late Senator Hepburn of Idaho had
forseen this development and in a
speech in the United States senate de-
signated Lewiston as "Idaho's Sea-
port"

Located at Howell, Mich.

The state sanitarium is located two
and a half miles from Howell, Mich
on a hillside with an elevation of 100
feet. 1t accommodates eighty pa
tients. These come mostly from Flint,
Mich. where the frightfully unsanitary
conditions of the factories and the
dyes in the goods worked with result
in an appalling number of tubercul-
osis cases. The contagious nature OF
the disease is made clear by the num-
ber of persons who contract the NAL
ady shortly after associating in the
factories with those who have it. rhe
sanitation laws of Michigan are still
so imperfect that the owners of fac
tories can not be compelled to rem
edy the disastrous conditions. The
next highest number of patients re-
by the sanitarium comes from
Detroit, but it is now suggested that
Detroit take care of its own and pro-
vide additional accommodations for
cases in connection with
the hospitals it already maintains.
