Written While You Walt.

AS far as imagination goes, e. Phil
lips Oppenheim is probably one Of our
most accomplished authors. He admits
that his novels are not constructed
with any effort-they grow. "All l
have to do" says he, "is to think up
the barest outline Of plot, find some
congenial place to settle for a while,
get a stenographer who is good at TAX
ing rapid-f1re dictation, and let 'er
go!" The imaginative Mr.. Oppenheim
got the idea for his latest (at the time
of going to press) story, "The Doublel
Life of Alfred Burton" while eating q
mutton chop in a Strand restaurant.

from Marjory. Mildred, don't you
dare to step into this house with that
cat! Can't you see Dorothy's bird
Please, please go home-quick!"
"Very WELL" answered Mildred in
icy tones. "If you care more for Dor
othy's silly bird than for me and my
darling Mopsy we shall not trouble
you any more with our unwelcome
presence" Then the irate sister
marched out of the room.
81 wish l had never seen that horrid
bird or Dorothy, either!" lamented
Marjory.
After two months absence Dorothy

swung and sung.
Presently Bert exclaimed: ut beats

The habit of finding fault with the
postoffice department was just as pro-
nounced a century ago as at the pres-
ent time, as Is evidenced by the follow
ing comment printed in Boston news
paper 100 years ago: "The mail OF
yesterday brought neither letters no.
papers south of Hartford. Conn. The
infamous conduct of the postofice de-
partment deserves the severest legis-
lative animadversions. There are now
due in this town, at this most inter-
esting moment, two mails from Wash
ington and one from New York. For
this vexatious and fraudulent delay
there Is not even a plausible pretext

WAR WHAT is 1T?

War in it's true sense Is a
slaughter house for poor men, a
Door house for children. And a
house of weeping for the moth
ers and wives of the dead and
dying. The rich man will not go
out into the battle field and fight
So we must say that when
socialism declares against war
all other poor laboring men aught
to, and if they did this in a unit,
there would be war nc more FOR
ever, for please read.
And he shall judge among
the nations, and shall rebuke
many. people and they shall beat
their swords into p'owshares,
and their spears into pruning
hooks; nation shall not lift up
sword against neither shall they
learn war any more" Isa. 2-4
So you see that God hates war,
and loves peace.

LAST BLOCKS BY THE MILLION.

The Last Block business was started
in Bingham in 1899, which was the
year before the railroad came into
Bingham, by S. A Dinsmore, who now
lives in Boston, and j. J. Lander Of
Bingham. The first freight handled
were two cars of last blocks, shipped
to Michigan In 1891 Dinsmore, Lam
der and Fritz Bros, of Auburn, or
gained a company known as the
Bingham Last Block Co. This com
pany built a factory for rough turn
ing blocks and continued doing bust
ness as long as lumber was accessible
to be hauled or RATED to the mill in
sufficient quantities.
In 1894 Nh Dinsmore sold out his
interest in the chopped block business
To Mr.. Lander and the same year Mr..
Lander sold one half interest to Mark
Savage of Bingham and continued in
the chopped block business until 1905
when Lander & Aver bought Mark
Sayages interest
Five years ago Lander Aver went
INTO partnership with the American
Shoe Finding Co. and commenced TO
manufacture the rough turned blocks
This company continued in business
until last fall when the American Shoe
Finding Co. sold their interest TO Lam
der & Aver, and they built plant sit
uated ON the site of the Andred kaul
Co.'S hub factory.
This business has been kept up ever
since its first inception until the pres
ent time These blocks have been
marketed in various parts of the
world. New England was the princi-
pal market for many years, but many
have been sold in New York. New Jer-
sey. and Pennsylvania. and great
many millions have been sold in Eng
land. AS many as one million and a
half blocks have been manufactured in
a year
