Young man, do your counting
in the kitchen. For there will
come time, if you marry, when
the happiness of your home, the
sunshine of your existence will
depend on the ability of your
tOOtsy wOotsy to make good bread
and fry flap jacks. You can't be
happy, no man can, if you begin
the day by loading your stomach
with tough steak, soggy biscuits
and bum coffee. These things
may be born with silent fortitude
for a time, but after a few years,
with plenty Of time to reflect and
with visions of mothers kitchen,
the fondest heart may cool off a
few degrees and the idea Of MAX
ing a martyr of yourself for the
sake of a girl who was too lazy or
Indifferent to learn to cook will
not appeal to you as it once did. /
So our advice to a young man is
to do his counting in the kitchen.

Zee Whalen win Act As euide

After a great deal of persuasion
ON the part OF the hunters of this
section it is rumOred that the gem
ial Pete Whalen has consented to
act as guide for hunting parties
this fall. The reason of his pre-
viOuS refusal was because the men
of the shot gun wanted TO hide
around the lakes and murder the
poor innocent ducks as they came
IN to feed, taking them indis-
eriminately, whether ready for
the table or whether out of eondi-
ton, while the riflemen wanted to
hide around the lakes where the
moose, elk caribou and deer were
forced TO come in TO get relief
from the flies which prevail in the
wilds of Idaho. This seemed
murderous TO the kind-hearted
guide, so he refused to assist IN
any such unjustifable slaughter.

A Remembrance From Daddy
Felt.

Our good and venerable friend,
p. F. Felt, comfortable seated in
his far off home at Salina, Kan
sas, recently took pen in hand and
gave us his thoughts in the follow
ing characteristic manner:
Friend Conger:
81 notice in a recent issue OF
The Herald several letters from
those who at one time breathed the
pure air and drank of the clear,
cold water of the Nezperee cOun-
try, and then migrated to chimes
hotter than the place where all
Democrats viii go when time shall
be no more with them. All seem
TO retain a love for the place they
have left.
81, too, often think of the good
people there; of the many fine
times / enjoyed with them, and
hope some time to again have the
pleasure of meeting them. But it
probably win not be for four
years yet; at which time / expect
to return and take charge Of the
Nezperee postofice. With Bill
Bryan, the great Democratic vote
getter, fighting booze; with the
Republican party fully united,
you viii see us-old standpatters,
the old guard Of the Grand Old
Party, march on to victory, and
then scat" to the Democratic
postmasters and all the other Of
fiee-holders. You can't realize
how hungry we are getting for
pie. I am already working
with the people Of the freak state,
Kansas, and hope to get them IN
line; then shall go to California
and get in my work there, and if
/ succeed you know what the re
suit viii be.
"But, oh, my, what a thump-
ing "youall" gave "weall" lasI
November Our bodies still ache,
but our minds are clear and our
memory is good.
my health is good and am en-
j0ying life and hope to, again have
the pleasure OF. meeting all the
good people of Nezperee.

AT the same time still capture
the birds very rapidly as they
flock from for and near 20 feed on
the pumpkin.
Whalen'S method OF capturing
the elk and caribou is 10 hang a
captive bOlloon over the marShy
reeds of the lakes where the game
eongregates, and after a sufficient
number are under the balloon TO
give a good selection, he lowers
his balloon 10 suitable height,
and with his shoes properly SpIk-
ed with drivers spikes he drops
ON the moses head between the
horns. grasping the right horn
firmly in the right hand and the
left with the left hand, digging
the eorks into the heshy part OF
the neck. This enables him TO
guide the animal at will around
the alike. IN the meantime, the
rest of the party that he is guiding
simply sit around the camp play
ing pinOehle, and so soon as he has
sufficiently exhausted the selected
game, BIZ riding around the lake
as described, he guides IL to camp,

the party 10 come down 70 shore,

get some of the large yellow
pumpkins which he grows, cut
them open, and slip them over the
head of the hunter, leaving two
eyeholes for the purpose of seeing
the game. The hunter then wadeS
in the water up to his neck, and as
the birds come up and bite pieces
out of the pumpkin, they are grab
bed quickly by the legs and pulled
under water, and held thus until
they are drowned. This method
of hunting enables a good judge
of birds to select only those that
are suitable for the table, letting
the old or thin and hungry birds
go on their way Amy diSerimln-
ating hunter can get the very fin
est birds, and viii have no trouble
in bagging three hundred a day,
while with the gun the law limits
the hunter only ten birds, Mr..
Whalen says that the law does
not offer any objections TO catch
ing them in this way, and besides.
as the birds are not alarmed and
no noise is made the Hardens have
a very hard time catching the
sportsman. Should the hunter
become tired during the capture
of the birds, he can back up TO
