Lewiston Rose Carnival

Lewiston, Idaho, June 7th, 1916.
For Lewiston's annual Rose Fair
to be held on Saturday, June 10th,
a list of no less than two hundred
exhibitors are assured, thus making
the most comprehensive display of
roses ever seen in the Inland
Empire. From a modest beginning
of a few years ago, this annual
event has now grown to magni-
tude to attract Northwest attention.
AS indicative of this fact, the Port
land Rose Society is to have a
representation in the Lewiston
pageant. This pageant it is now
estimated will represent from fifty
to seventy-five floats. The Annual
Rose Fair in Lewiston now assumes

GOOD WISHES
By FORTUNE FREE.

= OMEONE said that the richest 0 person was the one who was fullest of good wishes for others
 and who received their good wishes in return. Wishing others well did him or her all the good in the world, d,<and the good wishes in return were powerful for good. Don't we find 1t so ourselves? No one can do with out them. They are our dearest pos sessions.
 Montague Williams, the celebrated British barrister, once related the story of a rather unlovely old gentleman of miserly habits and rejoicing in the nickname amongst the urchins of the neighborhood of "Old Pickbones." Gen. erosity was not one of his virtues, and f he wished any human creatures we'll he kept it secret to himself. He was man who seemed impervious to all good wishes-a solitary old grudger who cared nothing for the good or the bad wishes of any human creature. When he died, however, it turned out that he had been by no means as thick skinned as he seemed. He left will In which he bequeathed money to diff ferent persons, and ten thousand pounds to some unknown individual whom he directed his solicitor to dis cover if possible. That person had been accustomed to send him yearly an anonymous post card with just, Best wishes at this time to you"
 The writer gave no clue as to who he was. Did the old gentleman tear the cards up or throw them into the fire? Not bit of it. He had carefully preserved them-tied them up in a nice packet. If the writer can be dis covered" he ordered in his will, ..l bequeath him ten thousand pounds for his good will"
 I would dearly have liked for the

Advantage of Household Work.

For young girls who have finished grammar school, who have no money for further study and who are un- der the necessity of providing for their own support, there is much to be said in favor of some form of household work. Unfortunately, great preju- dice exists against it; but an ambitious girl has as good, if not better, opportu- mites for advancement than factory work provides. In the factory she will be obliged to work as hard as she can all the time in order to earn a living, and it is impossible to keep up this effort for more than Q few years with out nervous breaku5 Ii. While in some factories she will have an op- portunity to learn trade and gain advancement, this is nos always the case. The higher positions are con- paratively few, and the conditions in the factories not always satisfactory. Exchange.

admiringly. He clasps the throttle with faith in 1t. But he doesn't jerk 1t, or pull it recklessly. He presses 1t slightly. some way, and the muscles In his arms contract gently, and the steam misses bit, and the great wheels start to turn as gently as if child were turning them. They revolve little faster, and little faster, and the train is under full speed with never jolt or jerk.
 Well, that's exactly the way we ought to start the day. We ought not to ex- pect to get under full speed at the jump. There should be no jolting, no jerking. The wheels ought to move slowly, gently, at the start, and we ought to work ourselves to full pres sure as gradually as the engineer gets his train underway. Then we'M find a smooth track and plenty of power and we'll be able to bring the tfnin into the shed at night with never an injury to passenger and the machinery in good shape.

pistol and fired, and Syme fell dead.
 Then was Balfour taken to a jail, and shortly afterwards he was tried. CT and pull of his influential relatives could not avail him in this evil case. There came an evening when he knew that the next sunrise would be the last he'd ever see. From the SS.arred window of his dungeon he could see the instrument of death, the maiden, which had been erected that afternoon by whistling workmen. It stood upon a knoll, so that the plain people would be able to see every detail of his exc cution.
 The maiden was the ancestor of the guillotine. The inventor of the latter. whose name has become immortal, was mere plagiafIst.- st--f1sVerv -sahent. feature of his machine was empodted in the maiden. This admirable con- trivance was introduced in Scotland by the regent Morton, who encouraged labor-saving devices of every kind. Morton, who was the most unpopular man in his kingdom, had the satisfac- ton of being beheaded by the machine he so greatly admired.
 The maiden consisted of two up- rights with grooves down the inside. In these grooves there slid a heavy -ax, weighted with lead. There was cross-bar four feet from the ground. and upon this the patient laid his head at the direction of the executioner. Then another crossbar descended upon his head and held it down. Ev- erythfng being in readiness for the op- eration, the executioner requested the patient to look pleasant, please, pulled a cord, and the ax descended. There never was any botched work with this machine, as often happened when the headsman swung an ax by hand. The maiden was largely used in the agri- cultural districts, where the stealing of live stock was popular diversion. When the thieves were convicted and brought to execution, a touch of po- etic justice made their end seem more pleasant. If the condemned had sto.- en horse, the cord which released the ax was pulled by that animal; if COW or a sheep, COW or a sheep sent him into eternity.
 It was upon this ghastly machine that Alexander Balfour was looking when the sun went down, and there

JUST REFUSE TO BE ANNOYED 1
Begin the Day in Good Humor and De-
 termine Not to Complain, and Note the Result.

Start the day right-especially when the weather is trying upon ones nerves. Start it by being in good hu- mor-by refusing to be annoyed. Don't get excited about anything; there is really nothing exciting early in the morning. Make the most of every thing about you-and determine In your own mind that come what may you are going to accept 1t without com plaint, and there will be little cause for complaint, says the Dayton News.
 If we could start the day with smile, there would be no trouble for us through the hours to follow. If we would refuse to become peeved. noth- ing would peeve us throughout the day. There Is more in this thing of getting started right than the average man may suppose.
