WHAT is TRUE FRIENDSHIP
Author Unknown

Author Unknown
True friendship Is q builder Of
character neither asks or expects re-
ward; to serve is sufficient recon-
pense. It can endure only through
mutual devotion and self sacrifice.
For one to know that through good
or evil report; no matter whether pres
ent or absent, his friend il loyal, lies
the true value Of friendship.
True friendship seeks opportunity,
preferably IN secret, to serve those
held in esteem. II denies the edst-
ence Of evil thought or action and
even should such Be proven, seeks to
minimize, excuse or condOne.
Old friends are best, tried and
found true thru trial, txibulation Of
failure. In times Of adversely, sor-
row or distress, true friendship shines
Ike . beacon Of light set upon hill
Of Hope, and its benehcient influence
smoothes the rough spots Of life.
Outcast should be the ono who, thru
pretended Friendship, betrays . con
hdence either for material gain ol
personal gossip.
True friendship Il : tiny seed sowI
by admiration. Il grows rapidly and
ripens into affection, but wfthers ip'
stantly upon betrayal.

Cunnison. Tom Maloney, one Of the
big politicians Of Denver, was in town
and Jesse Marshal and wife Of Iowa
are visiting here. Mr.. Marshall Is an
insurance agent now for some big
company.
The name Marshall, reminds me of
the item in the "20 Year Ago" column
Of the Tribune this week, TO the effect
that last Tuesday was the first time
since the world began that the whistle
Of q locomotive was heard on Marsh
all Pass. Some job to haul an engine

RARE FRUITS IN PHILIPPINES
and Unknown in the Rest

Among the productions of the Phil.

almost unknown In the rest of the

whose remarkable qualities were des.
canted upon by Alfred Russell Wal

Malay archipelago.
II grows on a lofty tree somewhat
resembling an elm. is about as large

contains n creamy pulp which com.
hlnes some of the flavor Of n delicious
rustard with those Of fine cheese.

who know. is new sensation worth

STATES ATTACK !. RATF INCREASE

WASHINGTON. March 15.-Arsu- ments in the Wisconsin rate casE, described by, some attorneys as the most important states' rights issue hefore the supreme court in many years" were closed today

 P. J. Farrell. appearing for the in terstate commerce commission. cited instances of alleged discrimination aga nst interstate rates when state was allowed to maintain lower sched- ules within It's borders. As result, he said, so far as revenues of the carriers were concerned, interstate commerce is converted into intra- state"
 A new angle was given the case todays when. in a supplemental brief, counsel for thee states attacked the commissions order for increased rates as nroviding revenues far in excess of the amount guaranteed the icarrle1s.> under the transportation act In the western territory, the brief said an increase of 6.4 per cent in passenger fares would have been sufficient to return 6 per cent ln- stead of the 20 per, cent increase or dered.
