Nancy could scarcely credit her
ears as she listened to DR.. Lang
wells proposal. that they both
auiftIy secure a divorce and marry
each other.
He said a great deal more, speak
ing in a low voice that was a triie
husky. not the assured complacent
tone, half-humorous. half-mocking,
with which she was familiar. He
held her hands tightly clasped in his
and she forgot to attempt to remove
them so great was her astonish-
ment.
She had sensed throughout their
acquaintance the fact that he was
sentimentally interested in her. But
she had assigned it to an entirely
different basis than that of mar
riaEe.
She had even been almost sure
that she was falling in love with
him.
Now she realized in a fash that
was almost binding in its revela-
tion that her interest had been
founded on the piquancy of the sit
uatiOn.
Iangwell had been interesting be-
cause she had thought him unat-
tainable. He was a famous surgeon,
much sought after by women. the
husband of an old school mate. The
Iast-named qualification being the
forbidden of the trio had been a
most powerful all in creating an in
terest-a fact of which Nancy was
quite unconscious.
But. now, as she sat there alone
with him in this strange apartment.
staring into the fire. her hands
clasped in his, listening to his un-
steady voice offering her all that he
rad to give in the world. ready to
s5crif1ce his wife on the altar of his
own desire. she had a ridiculous in
e.ination to laugh.
IL seemed to her as though the
scales of romance had suddenly
ALLEN from her eyes. The invisible
chains which had drawn closer
around her every day since she had
way. She stood again free and un-
~nackled, released from the spell.
She turned and looked at him
SG-iously. as one might look with
an air of detached interest at q
specimen of some ferns in a glas,

she saw him as he was. stripped

FISH. belonging to the genus Eche-
ne:s. was formerly used by the In
dams for catching other fish has
been Il subject of much discussion
among naturalists. Reports of such
use date back to Columbus. The
method. as reported. was to attach
a line around the tail of the Echc-
neis. which would then fasten itself
to another fish, so that the latter
could be hauled in and netted. Ac-
cording to DR.. E. w. Gudger, the
method is feasible. as the Echeneis
will stand a pull of nifty pounds
or greater.

SQUIRRELS Are Out

Frank Frazier, prominent farmer
living northeast OF Moscow, was in
town Friday and said squirrels are
coming out. He saw three that day
and believes that now is the proper
time to shoot, trap and poison them.
The warm, bright sunshine is melting
the snow, placing the roads in bad
condition, bringing out the squirrels
and bringing spring here with rush.
A week of such weather will mean
beginning of faorm work in many
places where the soil has had an op-
pOrtunity to drain

The senate has killed the direct pri-

mary bill, in compliance with the de-
mands of the state republican central
committee and in direct opposition tc
the wishes of large majority of the
voters of Idaho. The bill was passed
In the house by an overwhelming ma
jority. This means widening OF The
split between the house and the SEN
ate and a "wide-open" split in the
republican party. The party leaders
ought to have sense enough to know
that even with the overwhelming ma
jority polled at the last election, the
party connot stand a split and that
men and women are not voting for
party as they once did. 1t is within
the range of possibilities that the
state of Idaho can go democratic in
1922, if the republicans split and the
two branches of the legislature get
into fight. The killing of bills just
because they originate in the other
branch OF the legislature is not going
to help Idaho nor the republican party
which is in absolute control of both
houses.
The girls of Westminster Guild of
the Presbyterian church, have adopted
an unique but it should prove popular
method of raising funds for their
work They have secured from Hol
land a fine lot of Towering bulbs
which will be sold at 25 cents each
and yield a small profit to the girls.
This profit goes into the treasury Of
the guild and will be used for the
splendid work the guild is doing The
girls should be encouraged in this
work 1t is worthy and it means much
to them. At the same time they. are
offering to Moscow people beautiful
and rare flowers at price much low
or than they could be obtained else
where. This work is along the line
of business and tends to make the
guild self-supporting and not drag
on the community as so many such
movements are.

Miss Birmngham's' BirthdayBy Frank Willis Barnett

are alive today who will find this prophecy como true when sho cele- brdtes her centennial.
 emi-eentennial week was 2 great ono in it's inspiration as wei lasl in it's accomplishments, and every ono who had a part in it, from Sid Bowie down to tho littiest Boy Scout, de- serves the thanks and praise of us all Such Q show, running as It did a week, meant that hundreds were giving time, money and thought to making it a auccess-and it was one from every standpoint.
 It was great in bringing the poo ple of Birmingham to realization of hor true greatness. The showing made beneath the tents of tho manu- factured products in the district was a distinct surprise to many Of her citizens The putting on of such pageant was proof conclusive that in her midst was sufficient talent to make of 1t s thing of beauty and instruction. The art exhibit gaYo evidence that already there were those able to Appreciate the artistic.
 But to me the best thing of all was that we all caught the holiday spirit for a full week and met one another on tho streets, in the cars, in the hotels, in the theatres. in tho banks. on friendlier footing than ever before. Everybody felt and act
