Exclusive Historical Item.

The First Paper. - When Adams Eve began to do the housekeeping for Adam, she had no cares such as pursue the modern Adams madam. She did not know what was the rage, because there was no Woman's Page.
 She did not get Daily Hint from Paris full of passion to start her on a daily sprint to keep up with the fash ion She did not haunt the beauty stores in order to keep open pores.
 When Adam capered home at night Che was no wearied' plodderD he did not shiver lest he might be served with curious fodder. There were nc papers, so you see there was nc Household Recipe
 Old Adam was a happy bloke and lived life most cheery He did not know that he would choke some day with his bacteria. Adam and Eve had never read Health Articles tc scare them dead
 Eve never went through Adams breeks when he was sweatly dream ing, because there were no Bargain Weeks to tempt her to such schem ing. The serpent thought she was 6 goose. She was too good for any use
 The serpent was a clever brute Though he'd not been through col lege, his sanctum made him mighty cute. It was the Tree of Knowledge Anal" he said, "TI publish, free The Daily Eden Apple Tree!"
 The first edition raised a row whose scandal shocked creation. Since that first issue Adams brow is wet witt precipitation. It told the scandal, ricf and rare, that Eve had not a thing tC wear!- (From the Mergenthaler Line. O Tpe News.)

MANY BUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS
 ARE NOTICEABLE
TOWN IN PROSPEROUS coNDI- TON IS EVIDENCED BY
 MUCH WORK.

Strolling along the streets of the city yesterday, an oldtimer noticed many new buildings and other i'm provements and remarked that the town was evidently travelling on a prosperous wave. And so it is. The evidence is readily noticeable. Here and there new homes have been con structed and others are in the course of construction and repairs and inn provements have been done extensive ly. Streets have been repaired and others have been opened up giving easy access to lots upon which other buildings will be erected. All the work has been done on substantial founda- tions. The buildings as well as the new streets i'll Alaska, particularly with an appearance of permanency seldom seen in towns in Alaska, par ticularly in Ketchikan, where hereto fore temporary construction had been the rule. All this seems to have been reversed this year. and appearance of permanency predominates in all the work Ketchikan is looking well, said the oldtimer who had been absent for a year or more.

1 GERMANS ARE BARBARIANS SAYS
 ULSTER LEADER
DECLARES THAT AFTER THE WAR THEY MUST BE MADE TO UNI
 DERsTAND OBLIGATIONS.

Sir Edward Carson, the famous Ul- ster Leader while visiting in Paris recently was interviewed by a repre- sentative of the Matin and declared that the Germans were barbarians and should be treated as such. He said in part
 Tn peace as in war, the German is a barbarian and we should treat him as such.
 Let all the allied governments de- clare forthwith to the German people: Even when we shall have signed peace we shall not send any diploma tic representative to Berlin nor re- ceive any diplomatic representative of Germany in our capitals, as long as you Germans shall not have your selves punished all those who have been guilty of murder, all those who have violated those international laws which were set up in the interest of humanity during past centuries which have witnessed the progress of civil ization.
 "There is still another reason which makes such action necessary. Neutral powers have passively looked on at the violation of customs of law estab- lished by all nations. They have been powerless or unwilling to protest.
 If then a special penalty does not show clearly that these laws can not be transgressed, that these usages can not be violated with impunity, we must renounce in future all hope of introducing into war rules of human ity and henceforth no nation in the world would see any use in sending representatives to a convention at The Hague or any other diplomatic conference"

Portland Man lnVentS
 New Popcorn Machine

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. 19. - An automatic popcorn machine has been invented by a Portland man. The machine will operate without an at tendant, pop the corn, butter and salt it and measure it out into bags au- tomatically. By putting a nickel in a slot on one side of the machine the buyer obtains a hot bag of popcorn. The machine stops popping when enough corn is ready to supply the customer.
 The invention may be briefly de- scribed as follows: A container keeps depositing unpoped corn on an cleo tric stove, consisting or a series of tubular glasses within which are smaller tubes containing electric wires. These tubes are separated from each other -by small slit Thin, armlike blades pass through these slits and remove the popped corn. As the popped corn is much larger than the unpoped kernals this is made pos sible.
 The bars or blades that remove the corn are spaced to go through the slits and not only agitate the corn on the tubes. but carry off the popped corn. These blades continue to re volve through the tubes composing the stove. Another device in back oi the blades rakes the corn from them
 The popped corn then falls in a container and is then blown into a glass receptacle above. From the glass receptacle the corn drops into the buttering and salting machines and is then measured into bags and is ready for sale. When so many bags have been popped the machine automatically stops it's work and the electricity is turned off. The electric stove tilts up when the machine stops popping and in this way the unpop ped kernals are removed.

eoYs ARE BEST SOLDIERS.
(Toledo News-B

(Toledo News-Bee.)
 "Oh, they're so young; they're just boys" is a common expression as citizens look at the guardsmen. It is so long since we have known war that we have forgotten that it is of the boys that war takes it's toll.
 The only soldiers that we have had occasion to take note of are the stal- wart veterans of the Spanish-Ameri- can war, now eighteen years past, or the grizzled veterans of the civil war ended more than half a century.
 But it is the boys of country who do it's fighting They make the best soldiers They have the resiliency, the recuperative power of youth. War to them is a romance. They do not think of the consequences as older men do. It is youth that makes the reckless charges, the daring forays. Youth leads the'forlorn hopes. When the war is over it is the boys, the promise of the nation, that are miss ing.
 No, they are not too young for war We are learning here and abroad that nothing is too young or too sacred for war.
