Certain patterns in Cretonne are
suited to dresser scarfs, pin-cushion
covers. slipper bags, candle shades
and other little furnishings that are
required for mems rooms. In the pic
ture a dresser set is shown, including
scarf, pincushion and candle shade.
The cretonne shows a red rose and
green foliage against black and
white striped ground. So decided a
pattern is to be most sparingly
used, and the scarf is therefore only
bordered with the cretonne. A
square pincushion Is covered first on
one side with a small square of the
cretonne sewed smoothly over it. For
the other side considerably larger
square is hemmed about the edges and
pinned over the cushion.
The candle shade is made over a
wire frame and consists of a circu-
lar piece stretched over the top and
sewed to place. A hemmed strip hangs
from the edge of the frame to which
it is sewed.

ture in politics for any young man.
No man can be honest and save any
thing in politics, the salaries paid be-
ing barely sufficient to keep up eX-
penses. The common impression is
that men holding high positions are
receiving fat salaries, but the truth is
that not one in ten is making eXpen-
ses, and yet he is not living higher
than is in keeping with his position,
Political honors are for old men who
have accumulat ID sufficient amount
of this worlds goods to enable them
to enjoy the luxury in their old age
without financial sacrifices that they
cannot afford. Our compliments to
Tom Coffin for his good judgment.
With his ability and energy he will
make a success of the law as well as
make money, and we hope that he
will become so prosperous that he
may some day feel able to enjoy the
luxury of being governor or United
States senator
Mr.. Coffin has associated himself
with Judge Stanrod and D. w. Stan
rod Jr., at Pocatello, and the firm
name will be Stanrod. Coffin & Stan
rod Judge Stanrod enjoys a large
practice but as his banking and other
commercial interests require so much
of his time, the law business will fall
to the younger members of the firm,
Mr.. Coffin enters his new field of en-
deavor with very bright prospects.
The state of Idaho has lost one OF
its most efficient and conscientious
servants and the legal profession has
gained one whom we predict will be-
come one of its brightest luminaries

Just before Congress opened, the
air at Washington was full of trial
balloons sent up from the White
House. A bond issue, duty on SUI
gar, higher income taxes, an inheri-
lance tax, more stamp tlxes-these
and other suggestive feelers were
sent out by the administration haras-
sed by conditions of its own creation.
The need for more taxes is due to the
Democratic folly of tinkering with a
tariff which produced ample revenues.
Whatever course is finally decided
upon to raise the money to cover the
Democratic deficit and to provide
funds for defense, it will have to be
accompanied by a confession OF
Democratic inefhciency in handling
the nations finances.

A record for phone calls is a con-
,venience that every man will appre-
ciate and a gift that will last indeti-
nitely. The details for making a phone
list are shown in the picture above.
The cover is made of heavy, un-
bleached linen, cut in strip about
six inches wide and twelve long. This
is edged with buttonhole stitching in
black embroidery silk. Four eyelet
holes are worked near the center as
shown in the picture. A small spray
of red flowers, with green foliage is
embroidered in one corner and Dor
der, scroll and phone Calls" are done
in outline stitch in black
This linen cover encloses a tablet
on which names and numbers are writ
ten. Narrow red ribbon strung through
the eyelets holds cover and tablet to-
gether and forms hangers for suspend
ing the record.

There is an old saying that Office
holders never resign and seldom die.
Thomas c. Coffin has broken this
precedent He has resigned his posi-
ton as Assistant Attorney General,
surrendering a very lucrative job and
a place of high honor. He is engag-
ing in private law practice and has
become member of the law firm of
Stanrod, Coffin & Stanrod at Poca-
tello.
Thomas c. Coffin was born and
bred a Caldwell boy. He attended
the public schools at Caldwell and
later at Boise, after his parents re-
moved to that city. He received his
higher education at Yale and later
entered the Yale law school from
which he was graduated in 1910. Re-
studies with G. w. Lamson of Man,
pa, and was admitted to the bar Feb
ruary 8, 1911. He then entered the
law Office of Richards & Haga where
he remained until July, 1912, when he
was appointed Assistant County At
torney of Ada county, which position
he held until the following January,
when he was appointed Assistant At
torney General of Idaho. He was re-
appointed to that position January l,
1915.
Mr.. Coffin is a very young man to
have attained such high political
honors. He was born October rs
1887, and is therefor but just past 2S
years of age. He is much to be ad-
mired for his strength of character, in
that the lure of political honors did
not turn his head. There is no flu

The dresser scarf suggests the way

 The earnestness of the speaker reached climax in the following per sonal arraignment of the governor:
 Has the executive of this state ever asked for harmony? Has he ever called us together and urged the passage of any constructive legislation? No! He eVades the question. It is time for the people to rise up and demand what is due them: and it is time for us to make our voices heard. not sit here and adjourn from day to day. By fol- lowing such course We will certainly deserve their condemnation"
 At the conclusion of the remarks of the senator from Maricopa which were greeted with the applause of half dozen members, the senate adjourned until ten o'clock this morning
 The House
 Two brief sessions were held by the house. one in the morning and the other in the afternoon Tn the former T message was received from the gov ernor announcing his signature of the bill appropriating S23,00O for the ex- penses of the extra session. X message from the senate informing the house Of the adoption of concurrent memorial No. l asking the governor to facilitate the selection of the lands granted to Pima, MariCopa, YaVapai and Coconino counties was followed by a promise of some disagreement, not perhaps as to the merits of the memorial. It will likely prove one of those dividing points where the friends and enemies of the administration separate. IT was re- ceived and referred to the committee on petitions and memorials when MT. Johns of Prescott asked why immedi- ate action could not be taken under a suspension of the rule. in a matter that meant so much to the four coun- ties.
 Said Mr. Christy: This opens up a question: Is this legislation? If not, I have a memorial which I should like to introduce" Mir. Powers to whom he appealed replied that he did not believe that the memorials would come under the head of legislation barred by the, governors call. whereupon Mir Christy, replied: q am glad to learn that I should very much dislike t, do any thing of which the administration would disapprove I have therefore. approached this subject with fear and trembling. While we are about it there are some matters connected with taxation that should receive attention for they have a bearing on the subject of appropriations. There is about S75,-

L. D. S Church. who has been ap- pointed to head the fight for leg islation tending to prohibition, made very satisfactory report.
 Mrs Thomas of Prescott was ap- pointed to head a committee to seek the enforcement of prohibition laws. Her associates on this committee are F. II. Clark, Dr. Hughes and B. w Gettsinger. A committee on resolu tions consisting Of Andrew Kimbali. Dr. J. w Thomas. Dr Hughes and Gen. Wilson was appointed. Shortly before adjournment of the morning session. Rev. Ray C. Harker.

 The afternoon session was presided over by President Andrew kimball, This session was opened with q pray CT by Rev. $. NJ Cheek.
 Dr. Hughes was then called to the floor. and gave talk vital and full of interest He told of his eXperi- ences with the fight for the eradica- tfor of the liquor evil, and humor- ousiy made reference to the glee with
 which the liquor element serenaded him on the overthrow of the prohibi- ton amendment the first time. He did not forget to tell how he returned the compliment on the success of the fight this time.
 Miss Pendleton sang very pleas ing solo. this was followed by a speech by J. L. E. Alexander. The captain said that he had always been against prohibition until a careful analysis of the scientific side of the situation had brought around his influence to the side of prohibition.

 MT. Christy replied that that matter could be reported at once as he was chairman of the committee to which it had been referred. But no immediate action was taken.
 Chairman Powers Of the appropria tions committee said that the commit tee had made good progress with the appropriation bill and would be ready to report it not later than tomorrow. The subject Of holding sessions of the committee ir the chamber was revived but nothing came of the discussion. Representative Proctor started another discussion by proposing a committee tu visit the Tempe Normal school without expense to the state. Mir. Goodwin amended the proposition by moving a committee to visit the university and the motion was further amended by Mfr. Marian who asked that q committee be sent to the Flagstaff Normal. Speaker Brooks reminded the gentlemen who offered the amendments that the orig maj motion of Mr. Proctor involved no expense to the state. Mir McClain off, cred to take the committee to Tempe. After further objections by MT Good win to the investigation, Mir. Proctor withdrew his motion.
 An adjournment was then taken, to two o'clock. At that hour the house met and adjourned without the trans action of any business and thus added force to proposition offered by Mir Proctor the day before that the legis- iattre make appropriation for the street car fare of the reporters for trips to the capitol that result in waterhauls in consequence of the negligence of the legislature It was the opinion of the press gallery that that was the most sensible and just legislation that had vet been suggested

duty imposed upon him by the people at the last election.
 Referring to the so-called admins tration lobby in the house during the last session. Mir. Stapley said:
 Tt is time for the executive of this state to step in as a mediator, Let him call of the administration bunch if there be such thing, and allow us to pass an appropriation bill which will be for the benefit of the people of the taXpaYers.'
 Replying to the charge that had been made that the senate had been friendly to the corporations while the house had been the friend of labor Mir. Stapley continued:
 "I hear it said that the administra tion bunch in the house represents labor and that the senate represents capital. I resent this. and also the ac- cusation of trying to enact class legis- lation. I want to build up the state at the expense of neither labor nor capital. What can capital do without labor and what can labor do without capital?
 The true iaboring man is one who is trying to build a home. He is not the floater who walks around our rail- road tracks. I have the interests of the laboring man at heart. but I will not uphold the agitators- We must have capital before we can have de- velopment: ana capital will not come until Arizona has reasonable laws for it's protection.
 Here the junior senator from Mari copa recited the legislative needs of Arizona. all of which had been denied by the house in the regular session: q land code banking code a semi-an nual tax payment law and legislation to insure a businesslile government to Arizona to prevent the criminal waste of the public funds. On this subject he said:
 And this state needs a business administration. It needs a public wei fare board that will act as a check on the reckless expenditure of state funds. Why I find that stenographers are all lowed S a day for travelling expenses. exclusive of railroad fare: and heads of depa rtments are allowed as much as $15 day Some of them buy each month q 500 mileage book. and the eX pensive trips they take often do little or no good
