MORE NERvY THAN THE MALE
Writer in Toledo Blade Comes Boldly

Tell n man that tight belts cause
Appendicitis and he loOSens his belt

Warn him that stiff hats make the hair
fall out and he carries his hat in his
hand until he can find n soft one to
put on. This Is one of the striking
differences between men and women.
You cannot scare woman with any
such threat. II must be centuries since
women were told that stays would be
everlasting ruin to them. But Is there
any decrease In the use Of these ar
ticles? None that Is indicated by the
windows of the dry goods stores.
Tight skirts were bound to shorten
their steps permanently. V-necks

of these cuutionings! About rs much
as you would think of the hum

tight skirts until they were blessed

barred their necks to the wlntry breezes

may be sure that the fur collars will
not come OFF until they become unfash-
lonable. You may be equally sure
that women will be callous to the nd

the fundamental one of our redemp-
tlon through the cross.
What Does II Mean7
The second coming of Christ means
n personal, In the sense Of Il visitor
reappearing OF one Lord on this earth.
Such seems to be the teaching OF his
own words when, In the presence OF
the high priest he said: thereafter
shall ye see the son of man sitting on
the right hand of power and coming
In the clouds OF heaven" This Is re-
corded In the Goth OF Matthew at the
Gath verse. The angels tnught the
same truth TO the disciples on the
Mount of Olives when they said. "fe
men of Galilee, why stand ye here gnz-
Ing up Into heuvenf This same Jesus
which Is taken up from you Into heaven
shall so come In like manner as ye
have seen him go into heaven" This
Is recorded In Acts I'LL. And hnnliy
in the last book OF the Bible, we lind
John exclaIming. Behold, he cometh
with clouds; and every eye shall see
him. and they also which pierced him:
And all kindreds OF the earth shall
wall because of him. Even so. nmen.'
When VIII Il Take Plaee7
This doctrine has been brought into
disrepute because many have assumed
to fix dates for the coming OF our
Lord, Notwithstanding that the Bible
warns against 1t. Jesus himself said
to his disciples: "Watch, therefore,
for We know not what hour your Lord
doth come" There are some who
think that a millennium OF peace and
prosperity will be experienced on the
earth before the Lord comes. but such
a belief seems In contradiction to his
command to watch. II also seems to
contradict the teachings of his para
bes concerning his second coming, and
especially that of the nobleman In the
10Th Of Luke.
There Is also one other fact that
seems to preclude the expectation Of
millennium before Jesus comes; that
Is, what the New Testament teaches
as to the moral and spiritual condl-
tons In the world at the end of this
age. We nre all familiar with the
teaching Of Paul in his second eplstle
to Timothy at the third chapter, where
he says that "in the last days peril
Gus times shall come" He then goes
on to define what he means by that,
adding that "men shall be lovers Of
self, lovers Of money. bOastful.
naughty. railers, disobedient to parents.
unthankful. unholy. without natural af-
fectlOn, truce-breakers, slandercrs,
without self-cOntrol. fierce. no lovers
OF good, traitors, hlgh-strhng. high
minded, lovers Of pleasure rather than
lovers Of God; having form of godli-
ness hut denying the power thereof"
All this does not look like mlllen-
Mum. and yet how much 1t looks like
the times in which we are now living !

OF the Lord may be nearer than most

During the past week the camp was
visited by number of Nevada and
Idaho county and state officials, and
the matter of a new and better road
was looked into yer; thoroughly.
Governor Alexander of IDAHO. was
represented by Mr. E. NJ. Booth of
Boise, Idaho, engineer of the State
Highway commission, and Mr.. Ed. S.
Smith, ex-engineer of the State High
way commission.
Owyhee county was represented by
Mr. Lee Gress of Grand View, Idaho
Twin Falls county was represented
by Mr.. O.. E. Carlson of Twin Falls,
Mr. T. E. Moore of Filler. and Mr. D. T.
Albee OF Rock Creek.
Mr.. James Mcmillan of the Twin
Falls Commercial club, was also very
interested and active attendant of the
meeting.
Elko county was represented by two
commissioners, who came around
through Contact and Rogerson, Mr.
Henry J. Jones and Mr.. ]. p. Gregory.
The party all came into camp in
autos and all agreed that this end of
the road might be much better for
auto travel if some of the grades were
eliminated. Accompanying the Of
flcials above mentioned, were Mr.. J. B.
Liechliter of Rock Greek, Mr.. w. B.
McKeith of Grand View, Mr.. Reynolds.
U. S. MaMil contractor, and Mr.. Bos-
tick of the Dupont Powder company.
A large number of the citizens of the
town met the visiting commissioners
at the Club hall in the evening and the
whole road business was gone over
very fully and the great necessity of a
new piece of road between Jarbidge
and the Hot Springs was conceded by
everyone.
ALI the gentlemen were very enthu,
siastic over the outlook of the district
and expressed themselves very EN-
phatically in favor of the proposed
new section of road and promised Ia
take the matter up with their respec
tive commissioners and do all they
could to further the immediate build
ing of the proposed road.
A survey OF the proposed route had
been made and blue prints of the pro
file and details of the work necessary
were at hand for the use of the com
missioners. The new piece of road i:
about twelve miles long and 1t is esti
mated that one thousand dollars pei
mile will build it In good shape. About
half of this road will be in Elko county
and the other half in Owyhee county
This road will cut out all of the heav!
grades between Jarbidge and the Ho
Springs and thus eliminate all of The
grades which now give trouble Il
autos and freight teams.
With this new road completed, thi
route through Jarbidge should become
an important interstate thoroughfare
connecting the state roads of Idaht
with the Lincoln highway and othe
auto highways of Nevada. The Jan
bidge-Deeth road over the summit o
the Humboldt range, offers feast o
magnificent scenery to the traveller
To the, north this Jarbidge road cor
