The Child'3
There ia much Of Imagination In the
life Of every child. and this should be
fostered and guided for use in later
life. II It is possible give up one room
TO the child. or. IL not that. then Il part
Of q ROOM. an alcove OF a corner OF
the room. so that it can be transformed
into an attractive and educative spot
for the child. 1t is not SO much a ques-
ton OF size as It is Of Il distinctive
place. If possible it should contain a
cabinet for toys. A box into which a
child mt the end Of its play dumps all
Of it's toys fosters only a semblance .of
order.
A cabinet is attractive in itself to the
child leach parent will remember the
subtle a~ttractivencss and fascination
Of the old cupboards and cabinets). and
IL each toy has it's place and the child
is early trained to put its toys away In
order a valuable asset is acquired for
later years.
Among the other examples of incon-
sequential expenditures can be mem
toned the $1.5OO,OOO expended for the

Points
for
Mothers
The Mothers Authority.

Obedience that cannot be secured
without many repetitions, loud tones or
q threatening mannc is Of little value.
A prompt response to n simple request
is of great value in securing an obedi-
ent habit of mind. For instance. If you
say, MARY. please close the door,"
Mary may do SO Immediately without
waiting to finish something she may he
doing at the same time. or she may
dawdle along and wait for a repetition
Of the order and finally say. "Yes,
when I get this DONE" or something
ike it. In the child who responds
quickly is seen already on the
path to trained and instant obedience,
without servility, simply showing the
recognition Of simple orders, q most
valuable point in the education Of little
children.
In the other a careless habit Of mind
Is noted. a lax recognition Of the moth
ef's authority. which should be held
saways, in gentle ways, and which
nust be recognized ut first. In. every
way. Abbott says III Ills Gentle Meas
ures In the Management Of the Young
that there are three ways the mother
governs the cl1ild-frst. by maneuver-
ing and artiice; second. by reason and
affection. and. third. by authority. He
also says that of the three methods the
last is the only one which a be fol-
bowed either with comfort to the par
ent or safety to the child. and this
method can he brought efectually into
operation by gentle measures. 1t ia.
indeed, true that the Importance Of
tact aud skill In the training Of the
young and of cultivating their reason
and securing their affection cannot be
eoverrated. But the influences secured
by these means form at the best but a
sandy foundation for filial obedience to
rest upon. The foundation must be q
gentle but firm authority.

MANY STORES STUNG
Numerous Business Firms In GOodIng
Fall for Bunk Scheme.

The most versatile and accomplished
swindler that has ever honored Good
ing with his attentions closed high
ly successful campaign last Friday and
vanished. This man showed no par
TALLY and played no favorites. He
went right down the line, plucking
right and left, as a score of the lead
ing business firms can testify
His name is S. d. Maxwell. He ar
rived at Gooding from parts I'M
known about six weeks ago and an
nounced that he wanted to buy some
land. The real estate men paid him
considerable attention and gave him
many free rides. Then he went over
on Glover creek and contracted to
buy half of the stock of the Bray Lake
reservoir, which he proceeded i'm
mediately to enlarge. The stock was
to be paid for in the near future
when a very wealthy cousin sent him
the money. He employed George
Baker and some others to work on
the reservoir and the value of their
labor amounts to 5000 or more.
On the strength of these active OPP
erations, smooth talk and frequent
references to large remittances that
were on the way, Maxwell established
an extensive and choice line of
credits with the business men. He
purchased supplies for his Bray Lake
force and numerous expensive ar
ticles for himself. In fact, he was
quite liberal buyer and ran up ac-
counts amounting to $40 and $50 at
some of the stores. All of these ac-
counts were to be settled about the
10th of this month, when his ship
ment Of coin would arrive from the
! east.
Maxwell's final deal was the pur-
chase of second hand Ford, which
also was to be paid for on the 10th.
! On Friday he drove the Ford out to
George Bakers place, while the lat
ter was away working ON the reser-
voir, and brought in eight sacks OF
of wheat which were sold to the Good
ing Mill & Elevator company, and
| Gooding has not seen him since. Any
information concerning his where
abouts will be thankfully received by
| Sheriff Sanders.
| On Monday one of the Glover Creek
ranchers came into town to receive
$500 that Maxwell had agreed to pay
on that date for reservoir stock.
There is quite sentiment among
Gooding merchants in favor of doing
business on a strictly cash basis

DEFINES FARMERS DUTY
Irrigation Case to State Supreme
Court. Company Wins.

The decision of Judge Walters of
the Fourth Judicial District, in the
case Of Dolin Collins versus the Twin
Falls North Side Land e Water com
pany, in which the plaintiff sought
damages for the loss OF his crops
through the alleged failure of the
company to supply water, was revers-
ed by the supreme court in an opin-
ion handed down on Wednesday. The
case was sent back for re-trial on the
ground that the judge erred in giving
several instructions to the jury. The
opinion was written by Chief Justice
Sullivan and concurred in by Justice
Bulge and Justice Morgan.
The court held that if an irrigation
ter to point within one-half mile
from each quarter section under the
project contracted to be watered it
has fulfilled its contract so far as
that requirement is concerned and 1t
is up to the settler to construct his
distribution bitches and headgates
Collins asked heavy damages, al
leging that the loss of his crops was
due to the failure of the company to
sufficiently raise the head of water
| III luC OktCIC0 llOAA WllACll llo supply
was taken The court held that the
company was not responsible as the
evidence showed that there was suf-
ficient water in the canal, had the
distribution bitches been constructed
deep enough to make use of it, or
had the plaintiff constructed the prop
er check to raise the water to a height
sufficient to send 1t through his ditch
es.
1t is the work of the settler, not
the company, to construct proper
ditch and necessary checks, the opin-
ion stated, and If he is the aggrieved
party in this matter, he should have
done the necessary work to save the
crop and brought suit for damages
later against the company.
where party can save himself
from loss arising from breach Of
contract at a small expense, or with
reasonable exertion," said the court,
ut is his duty to do SO, and then he
can recover such expense from the
party liable and also such damages
only as with reasonable endeavor and
Iexpense he could not prevent States
man.
