last effort to procure funds to help

that were of the Grand Army that in
the days of '61-'64 went forth volun-
tary and freely to their country's call
and offered up their lives that this
glorious United States should be one
country and under one flag.
We that are now living are but the
tattered remnant of that once great
army. Some of us are past our three
score and ten years and tOttering on
the brink Of the grave and the Grand
Army of the Republic will soon be a
thing of the past and forgotten by
the rising generation except our sons

TRUTH NEVER HURTS THE
RIGHTEOUS

The Republican speakers who told
members of the state central commit
tee of that party Saturday that the
best political card to play is the
whole truth" voiced a political axi-
ON.
1t is only the demagogue with
something to hide who contents him
self with stirring up prejudices, with
evasions and half truths. The honest
man who advocates partys success
because he believes that party is best
equipped to govern we'll, never OPP
poses a complete investigation of its
record, says the Idaho Statesman.
Such a man says, as did one OF the
speakers Saturday, IF my party has
done anything unfair and unreason-
able, if it has failed in its great trust,
it doesn't deserve support. l want
the peope of Idaho to know what
know, that the Republicans have gov
erned them efficiently and have not
failed in trust"
amen" to that plea for the truth.
They are not thoroughly pleased with
everything in government. Many OF
them are highly displeased with theis
have learned the surprising fact that
state politics has nothing to do with
their tax burdens. They have figured
it out that if we abolished the state
house and it's employees entirely, still
we would be grooming under the high
taxes for the tax burden has come
from the school districts and highway
districts and the small taxing units
generally. And the money goes for
governmental luxuries or elements OF
progress ordered by the people in
their little communities, not by party
officials in some distant statehouse.
The whole truth cannot hurt the
righteous. The people, wanting to
know which party serves best, are
clamoring for it. Is there anything
significant in the fact that it is the
Republican party which comes for
ward to offer the full report and the
whole truth? One who is afraid of
the facts does not do that.

Most of the nations represented at
the Genoa conference figure that
Germany and Russia will stand watch

is nothing Germany would like SO
we'll as to be able to control the vast
resources of Russia and to have the
rest of the world let her alone, with
the exception of buying the products
of her factories, while she again built
up a great war machine. If she is
allowed to do that she will probably
give Europe another blood bath. No

PRICED AMBER AS ORNAMENT
Germans, Who Had Small Idea
of Its Real Value.

Amber, which is fossilized resin, was
in great demand among the Romans
for ornaments. Tacitus, in his
"Germania,' tells that it was gathered
by the barbarian Germans. "They ex.
plore the sea for amber, in their
language called 'gleese,' and are the
only people who gather that curious
substance" he says. ''It is generally
found among the shadows; sometimes
on the shore. Concerning the nature
of the cause Of this cOncretion the
barbarians, with their usual want of
curiosity, make no inquiry. Amongst
other superfiuities discharged by the
sea this substance lay long neglected.
till Roman luxury gave it name and
brought it into request. To the saw.
ages it is Of no use. They gather
it into rude heaps and offer it for sale
without any form or polish, wondering
at the price they receive for it,"
Tacitus guessed correctly the origin
of amber, saying: "There is reason
to think that amber is a distillation
from certain trees, since in the trans.
parent medium we see a variety of
insects and even animals of the wing,
which, being caught in the viscous
fluid, are afterwards, when it grows
hard, incorporated with it."

Never Saw Their Faces.

The young woman was looking at
child's book, ''The Sunbonnet
Babies Those Sunbonnet babies
were my delight and my despair when
was Httle," she said, because l never
could see their faces. If you'll look
carefully at every picture you'll no
tice the faces of those babies are
never revealed. Other characters in
the Illustration show their faces, but
never the sunbonnet babies.
"The only idea you can get of what
sort of little girls they were is by their
posture. And l used to peer and peer
at those sunbonnets. I used to turn
over the pages and look through from
the back side; used even to tear the
pages bit to see If T could not get
inside Of those sunbonnets. But I
never could.
"Some day I'm going to write to that
SunbOnnet artist and ask If he won't
send me, In confidence, one picture OF
those babies with their bonnets Off,

HANDS INDEX TO CHARACTER
still Reveal Much, Though Probably
Less Than Was the Case Some
Few Years Ago.

Once It was possible to tell "lady'
by her hands-that is If you regarded
lady as "a female Of the favored So
cial class" She had well-kept hands
because she did nothing to roughen
them or enlarge their knuckles Or cause
premature wrinkles Even If fortune
had gone against her she somehow
avoided the work that would mar the
symmetry of those hands. She did
without sugar for her tea and did
needlework for money in order to avoid
the work that she regarded as mental
And because a woman of this class
knew that 1t was at her hands that
others looked for an index to her So
cial position it was her hands that she
saved, wearing gloves by day and by
night to keep them white and to pro-
tect them and repair them from the
ravages of wind, sun and homework.
The situation is rather different now.
The young woman of immigrant par
ents who sells tinware in the depart
ment store basement has deliberately
manicured nails and hands that are
smooth, but the wife of the college
president has hands that clearly show
the effects of work that we would once
have regarded as menial
Perhaps still to the keen observer
hands have something to tell of their
owners rank or pedigree. There are
some hands that no matter how dill
gently manicured always look a little
grimy at the corners, and others, lack
ing entirely the luster of the manicure
buffer, that are always scrupulously
clean.

SEEING POWER OF INSECTS
Interesting Data Collected in connec
ton With Studies in Comparison
a With the Human Eye.

Very curious data have been collect
ed in regard to the seeing powers of
insects. The human eye in perfect
condition is able to see objects sepa-
rately that are only one minute of arc
apart. Put two objects, as, for in
stance, two black circles, on a white
ground just one inch apart and then
place them at a distance of about
2S63a feet. AS seen with the naked
eye the apparent space between the
circles will be a minute of arc. This
space is plainly the limit of detail Wis
tble to the unassisted human eye,
Now it might be supposed that an
insect, having compound eye, would
be able to see more detail than we do;
In other words, could separate small
objects closer together. AS a matter
of fact, owing to the small aperture of
the lenses composing the facets of the
eye, and the spacing between the
facets, insects see less detail than
we do.
1t has been calculated that a dragon
fly cannot see separately two objects
that are placed less than one degree
apart. In other words, to such an in
sect two silver coins lying on a table
three inches apart, and viewed from a
distance exceeding 141s feet, would
appear as single object.
Bees and flies, according to the
same investigator, are still more linn
tied in their ability to see the details
Of objects presented to their eyes. A
fly could see the two silver coins above
described separately only at a dis
lance not exceeding about seven feet.
1t has been remarked as a conse-
Quence of this that we can see the de.
tails on the antennae Of fly at dis
lance OF two feet or more better than
the AZ itself can, though they are but
the fraction Of On inch from It'd eyes.
