Don't you think you are wornG
Hilda? 1t seems foolish to go against
conventions that have been establish
ed for ever so long"
Hilda shook her head. MY dear,
you don't understand. I'm different
My husband is different from yours;
our life together is different"
We'll. | should say So" gasped
Clare. II know that il my husband
expected me to pay my share when
we went out together, and in the
home, he'd have a long wait. Why
from time immemorial men have
supported women. Why this new
regime?"
1t was the typical argument be-
tween two women representing diff
ferent walks in life - Hilda, the
worker, the comrade; fluffy Glare,
all frillS and furbelowS and eX-
penses for her husband. Hilda won
dered if after all she was altogether
right in maintaining her side.
Il don't object to your working"
Clare went on, smoothing out the
soft crepe of her gown, that's per-
fectly all right, and 1 think you're
terribly clever to be able to do 1t.
Don't misunderstood me, my dear,
but why not put your money into
the bank as a fund for yourself
You might even dress yourself. But
going half on household bills robs
a man of a certain power, call it a
head of the family feeling, if you
like, but it puts him at a disadvan-
tage somehow, and someday he will
realize it and take it out on you"
Again Hilda shook her head.
Very WELL" laughed Glare. You'll
see. Heaven knows we women pay
for what the men give us. We pay
with every day of married life."

Sam Foo proved himself such a
domestic treasure as only the trained
Oriental can be. When the labor OF

little too much for him he urbanely
said so. Thereupon at Fyfe's sug-
gestion he imported q fellow coun-
tryman, another bland, silent footed

ice. Thereafter Stella's task of SUI
pervision proved sinecure.

Hilda gasped. "Why, Clare, you
don't mean that it's an effort being
married? Don't you love Jim?"
Clare shrugged her shoulders, "Oh,
l haven't any ideals about him; all
men are the same; they're all out

them pay for it?"
But 1 don't feel that way. ]

Clare shrieked. "Oh, Hilda, YOU

1 can possibly convince you, you re
so old fashioned. Well, | must run
away now. Good-by, dear. Come
and see me soon. l do wish 1 could
persuade you to think sensibly.'
And Glare tripped gaily away.
Hilda thought deep when, with
the other woman away, she could
collect her scattered feelings. Glare
was very diverting, somehow. Friv-
olous and pretty, she made an ador-
able plaything. Hilda's smooth brow
puckered as she thought. Was it
really true that men did like that
kind of woman best? Perhaps Ned
were tired already of her fifty-fifty
offering. Perhaps he would rather
scrimp and save rather than have a
WOIudH snare Ine expenses OF MS
household. Hilda wondered.
That night when Ned came home
Hilda was on the lookout for an alb
sence of lover-like attentions. But
she could find no fault. Ned was
as devoted as ever, and there was
no obvious change whatever in his
manner toward her. They talked
over the topics of the day as usual.
Glare Wright was here" she ad-
mitted finally! She's awfully pretty,

need it it's always be good-unless
Charlie goes broke"
There never had been any question
of money between them. From the
day of their marriage, Fyfe had
made her a definite monthly allow
ance a greater sum than she needed
or spent.
'As matter of fact" he went on,
I'm going to open an account in
your name at the Royal bank so you
can negotiate your own paper and
pay your own bills by check"
She went in and put away the
check. 1t was hers, earned, all too
| literally, in the sweat of her brow.
For all that it represented she had
given service threefold. If ever
there came n time when that hun
ger for independence which had
been famed to a flame in her broth
er's kitchen should demand appease-
ment-she pulled herself up short
when she found her mind running
upon such an eventuality. Her fu-
ture was ordered. She was mar
ried--ere long to become a mother.
Here lay her home. All about her
ties were IN process of formation,
ties that with time would grow
stronger thar any shackles of steel
constraining her to walk in certain
IWays--ways that were pleasant
enough, certain of ease If not of def
mite purpose.
Charlie Benton came to visit them.
Strangely enough to Stella, who had
never seen him on Roaring lake, at
least dressed otherwise than as his
loggers. he was sporting a nattv
gray suit, he was clean shaven, OK
ford ties on his feet, a gentleman
of leisure in his garb. If he had
started on the down grade the prev
ious winter, he bore no sign of it
now, for he was the picture of ruddy
VlGor, clear eyed, brown skinned,
alert, bubbling over with good
spirits.
Why, say, you look like q tour

praising glance.

It's got class, outside and in. Makes
a man feel as if he had to live up

You should get a place like this
as soon as possible, then" Stella
put in dryly, Ito keep you up to the
mark, on edge aesthetically, one
might put it,"
ITS touch of civilization that
looks good to me-" Charlie declared.
You can put my private mark on
one of those big leather chairs, Jack.
I'm going to use it often. All you

unmarried ones. You watch.

Natures Own Remedy
HyOmeI Relieves Catarrh without
Dangerous Drugglng of the Stomach.

Not until Hyomei was discovered
has it been possible to truthfully say
that a remedy for catarrh was known.
This remedy is breathed through the
Hyomei inhaler for a few minutes
four times a day, and during that time
every particle of air taken into the air
passages and lungs is impregnated
with the germ killing and health-giv-
ing Hyomei.
Stomach drugging often causes dis
ordered digestion and brings on some
other disease and never makes a. per-
manent cure for catarrh. Hyomei not
only kills the germs in the throat and
nose but penetrates to the minutest
air cells in the lungs and enters the
blood with the oxygen, kiliink. the
germs in the blood. 1t frees the
mucous membrane from the poisonous
tarrhal troubles.
A complete outfit costs but little
and includes an inhaler. dropper and
sufficient Hyomei for several weeks
treatment.

help you, Fl. G. Kennedy will refund
your money.-Adv.

Fashions Of To-Day By May Manton

No woman will be without a
coat dress this Autumn if she
can avoid it and here is one
that can be made so readily that
it comes within easy reach. 1t
is essentially smart and this
season simplicity and smartness
go hand in hand. You can copy
it in broadcloth or in velours or
in serge or in gabardine or in
velvet as you want useful dress
or a more dressy one. You can
trim it with any contrasting
material or you can use the same
material and embroider the col.
lar, the pockets and the belt.
Serge and gabardine are exceed
ingly handsome with soutache
braiding. The trimming is an
easy one to apply and at the
same time means little cost. The
long, unbroken lines that are
given at the front not alone add
to the smartness, they also mean
becomingness. In the illustra-
tration, brown broadcloth is
trimmed with velvet showing
shades of brown and tan.
For the medium size will be
needed, 7 yards of material SO
inches wide, 5s4 yards A, S
yards 81 with I yard SO inches
wide for the trimming.
The pattern No. e52I is cut
in sizes from "a to AZ inches bust
measure. 1t will be mailed to
any address by the Fashion De-
partment of this paper, on re-
ceipt of fifteen cents.

A PROCLAMATION

State of Idaho, executive depart.
ment:
Whereas, it appears especially fit
ting that upon this year of all years
when this nation has been forced to
take up arms and to do battle to
save democracy from destruction, at
tention should be given to observ-
ance of the Fourth of July, and that
patriotic meetings and demonstra-
lions should be held upon that day,
and,
Whereas, the use of firearms and
other explosive materials commonly
used in Fourth of July celebrations
might be made the excuse or pretext
of unfriendly persons to have dan
gerous matter in their possession and
afford an opportunity for it's use, in
case opportunity for such use should
be sought for the destruction of life
and property in this state.
Now, therefore, l M. Alexander,
governor of the State of Idaho, do
call upon all citizens everywhere
within the state to gather together
in patriotic assemblage upon the
FOuIIH udy VI July W SlNO SApI CD
sion to their loyalty to the nation
and their devotion to the principles
of self government, and l do call
upon all merchants and dealers in
firearms, fireworks and
other matter containing explosive
material usually used in the celebra-
ton of the Fourth of July, to refrain
from ordering, purchasing or offer
ing for sale any such articles be-
cause of the danger accompanying
heir use, and | do call upon all
mayors of cities and chairmen of
boards of trustees of towns and viii
ages. all sheriffs and other police Of
icers within this state to exercise
heir full power to prevent the sale
md use of such articles and weapons
Turing the year 1917.
Done at Boise, the capitol of the
tate this fifth day of May in the

buildings close at hand. The objec.
ton to putting dependence on this
outfit is that 1t Is men only
proposition and fires sometimes. oc-
cur when the men folks are away
from home.
There are on the market a num-
Der of patented fire extinguishers,
which may be carried by one person
without much trouble. These ex-
tinguishers work on the chemical
principal and some of them do very
satisfactory work; one or more of
the best makes would be good in
vestment for farmer.
Every farm should have ready for
instant use light and long ladders at
both house and barns. A few fire.
protection buckets, to be used only
in case of fire, should be at both
house and barns. Railroads, lumber
companies, and similar business con-
Germs keep barrels filled with water
at convenient places for use in case
of fires.
Lightning rods play an important
part in fire protection in sections
where lightning is frequent. Do not
let the old time jokes about light
ning-rod agents convince you that
these rods have no utility. Fire in
surance companies look at fire pro-
lection in a very practical way and
the fact that they give better rates
on houses protected by proper rods
than on houses not so protected is
some argument in favor of good
lighting rods.
Do not overlook the fire risk.
Spend few dollars to assist in max
ing the lives of your family, your
live stock, and your valuable prop
erty more secure.

RAISE MORE HOGS FOR
THE NATIONS FOOD ~

No branch of live stock farming Is
more productive of satisfactory re-
suits than the raising of well-bred
swine, if conducted with reason
able care, according to the spS NJ
lists of the bureau of animal indus
try, U. S. department of agriculture.
Hogs fit into the modern scheme of
farming on nearly every farm, and
are one of the most important ami
mails to raise both for meat and for
money. They require less labor, less
equipment and less capital, make
greater gains per hundred pounds of
concentrates fed, reproduce them
selves faster and in great numbers,
and give a quicker turnover" of
money than any other animal ex-
cept poultry. Farmers Of the south
and west particularly have awakened
to the merits of. the hog and are
rapidly increasing their output of
pork and their bank accounts.
The hog has no rival as con-
sumner of by-products and numerous
+unmarketable materials which but
for him might be wasted. Kitchen
refuse, not only from farms but also
from hotels and restaurants, when
cooked before being used makes ex-
cellent feed.
The value of skim milk as hog
feed is known on every farm tho
not always fully appreciated. In the
neighborhood Of many large diaries
pork production is very prominent
and lucrative supplement to the
dairy industry.
To prevent tuberculosis, all milk
and milk products should be cooked
before being fed to hogs. To con-
troll hog cholera use sanitary pre-
cautions and anti-hog cholera serum
treatment
Give your hog every chance to be-
come meat.
The hog is also a large factor in
cheapening the production of beef.
Hogs are placed in the cattle feed
lots to utilize the corn and other
feeds the cattle have failed digest
and which otherwise would be vast
ed. Hogs following steers in many
cases have increased the profit per
steer by from Sc to 50. Hogs should
not be allowed to follow dairy cat
tie unless the cattle are tuberculis
tested.

GARAGE MEN COMBINE
TO SET SCHEDULE


In today's issue of The Republican
may be seen a regular schedule Of
charges for the use Of automobiles
from any garage in town. The gar
age men got together for several
good reasons to arrange that every
body might know how much it costs
to have the use of the now common
carrier, the auto.
For one thing, a person does not
like to order car without knowing
just what the charge will be, and for
another, one dislikes to dicker on
small thing like car hire. When
the price is set the use of a car
more aptly suggests itself.
Livery prices were we'll fixed.
Hiring a rig" was common. Every
body knew just what it cost to hire
a rig, single or double, by the. hour
or by the day. And then came q
time when hiring car" was q
phase for the exclusive use of the
rich and the adventurous. 1t was q
distinction to be able to charter q
power driven vehicle, with it's com
fort and style. But the time has
come for Standardization. Garage
men know how much it costs to
drive car a mile or a block, on
dirt or on pavement, and they no
longer charge for the style of the
thing. It's a business proposition.

DISSENSION IN RUSSIA
OVER NOTE TO ALLIES

Mobs of soldiers and citizens sur
rounded state buildings in Petrograd
Wednesday bearing red flags and in
scriptions of Down with Milukoff."
The provisional government sent out
its note to the allied powers of the
entente declaring that Russia would
not make separate peace, but
would continue the war to a success
full end, without desire for self az
grandizenent. Objections to this
are made by the workmen and sold
iers because their representatives
were not properly consulted.
There were also demonstrations in
favor Of the government. Extended
conferences were held between an ex-
ecutive committee of the workmen's
and soldiers delegates and the coun-
Gil of the provisional government,
and it was decided that there existed
no good reason for the resignation
of the temporary government.
M. Rodzianko, president of the
Duma, exhorted the people to sup
port their administration in carrying
on the war to triumph. Milukoff's
address to the mob which carried
banners attacking him and calling
for his dismissal was a little master
piece of tactful leadership, and sin
cere patriotism.
Milukoff Addresses Crowd
When Foreign Minister. Milukoff
saw the banners inscribed with the
words Down with Milukoff," he ad-
dressed the demonstration from the
balcony of the palace, saying that he
was fearful not for Milukoff, but for
Russia. If the inscription interpret
ed the feelings of majority of the
he asked what must be the
condition of Russia. The entente al
lies would say Russia had betrayed
her allies and had struck her name
from the list of the allied powers.
"The provisional government can
not accept that view of things" con-
tinued M. Milukoff. 81 declare to
you that the provisional government
and myself as minister of foreign
affairs will defend a position in
which no one will dare charge Rus
STA with treason.
Never shall Russia consent to a |
separate peace.
"The provisional government is a
sailing vessel which can only move
with the help of the wind. We look,
hen, for your trust, which is the
wind that is to make our ship go
Onward. I hope you will supply us
With that breeze and that your con-
idence will aid us in propelling Rus
,ia towards liberty and prosperity
ind in unfolding the dignity of our
,reat, free country"
The words of the foreign minister
,voked hearty cheering.

H. S. JUNIOR AND
FACULTY BANQUET

The junior class of the high school
Friday evening to give the depart
ing senior class one last banquet of
farewell. The tables were put to.
gether to run around the big gym
nasium room on three sides with
places set for "a. Music from a
Victrola which stood in the open
side Of the room occasionally was
heard over the medley of student
laughter, songs and yells.
An excellent five-course banquet
was prepared and served by the
girls of the domestic science depart
ment, under Mrs. Percy Jones sup
ervision. Four captains stood at
strategic points near the tables and
directed the efforts of the large
squad of pretty mattresses. The girls
planned the dinner in every detail,
bought the materials for it, cooked
and served it, as a part of their
training in these things.
The feast began with the first
stanza of, "My Country 'Tis Of
Thee" sung by the whole assemblage
as they stood at their places. After
the eating, the laughing, the fun,
and cutting-up, a military program
was carried out in the toasts, in
charge of Mr.. Vincent, which was
responded to as follows: "Mobiliza-
tion," Miss Noel; "Prolonging the
Siege" Mr.. Marlowe, both of the
faculty; 1.-THE Tide of Battle Turns"
Lowell Holbrook, junior; "A Scrap
of Paper" Port Arthur, senior; "Our
Foreign Relations" Lieut.. Stewart
Hoover, alumnus; "The Eyes of the
Army" Mr.. Lowrey, and "The Siege
of Port Arthur" Miss Hubbell, rep
resenting the faculty; 1.-THE Report
of General Von;" Principal Eichel-
berger
Needless to say these little talks
were spiced with personal illusions,
sparkling with stories of student life,
leavened with a we'll knit spirit of
fun. The POSTMASTER
made his introductions very telling,
so that none of the speakers arose
with a pale face to address the
guests.
In closing, Professor Vincent
made the suggestion that the out
going senior class keep up connec-
lions with the school thru an alumni
Lieutenant Stewart Hoover, just
from West Point where he
was graduated last week, an alum
aus of the high school, was guest
If honor Friday evening, and his
.oast was of alumnus character, of
he serious sort that urges by ex-
ample the fostering of an alumni
