RooseveIt's Two "Red Rags"

Dr. John H. Richards, Colonei Roosevelts physician during his last illness, writes in the Saturday Eve ming Post:
 On my first visit to Oyster Bay 1t was considered necessary to take blood from Colonel Roosevelts arm for chemical examination. He in- sisted on standing while this was be- ing done, in spite of the fact that his ankles were acutely inflamed at the time.
 While the needle was being insert ed he was joking with Doctor SwartZ and Dr. W. Martin, who were in the room with us and I, fearing lest he should move his arm, thereby making anotntr. vein puncture necessary, said l: "Please do not move your arm, so that shall not misplace the needle.
 "AlI right" he answered, but don't anyone mention Wilson or the kaiser"

RIVAL THE NATURAL PEARL
Artificial "Gems," CheapIy Produced, Said to Be as Beautiful as the
 Real Ones.

It appears that the lining of pearly precisely the same material as that which composes the pearl itself. Coat buttons and other articles made of this "mother-of- -pearl' are very beau tiful, and would bring high prices but for the fact that the material is SC common.
 To make artificial pearls, clear moth er-of-pearl is reduced to fine pow der and mixed with rosin, shellac, stearin and little pigment to afford color
 This is the process devised by a westerner who possesses much knowl- edge of the pearling industry of the Middle West.
 A New Jersey man has invented a process to make imitation pearls from beads of highly polished silver coated with translucent cellulose yarnish that contains little white pigment. Light rays reflected through the coat. Ing from the mirror-like surface be- heath afford a pearl-like effece.
 The most familiar artificial pearls of commerce are globules of glass lined with substance derived from the scales of fish called the bleak It is to this substance that the rides cence of the scales of many species of fishes is due.-EXchange

 "You're thinking of getting mar ried '" Old Bower, the lawyer, glared sardonically at his son Dick. "You- whippershapper! Here I t2ke you into my law office out of charity, after YOU made a rank failure at college, and you come to me and talk of get ting married on twenty-five per! Has she got money?'
 "No, dad, but"
 "No 'buts, Dick. No, I don't want to know who she is. I refuse abso- lutely. I'll never do thing for you. And I'll give you a word of advice. I don't know whether your college career ever brought you into touch with a poet named Tennyson, but he says somewhere, Don't marry for money but go where money is.' Now get back to that fling and open my non-personal mail and lay 1t out for me-"
 Dick turned to his work, and his father put on his hat to go to the courts. Nevertheless, he sighed as he walked down the street. Since his wife's death, five years before, the boy had been everything to him.
 And Dick was a ne'er-do-well; the boy would never come to anything. And now he wanted to marry some penniless girl
 When he got back Dick had gone out to lunch. He looked at the cor respondence that he had opened and gave a start. John Higgins had died
 And Mary Hale, the waitress at the Royal hotel, was to inherit the bulk of his property, valued at twenty thousand dollars.
 He whistled. Mary was a sort of protege of his he always had pleas ant word for her when he took his lunch there. What would she do with twenty thousand? It was a fortune to her. And how he needed money!
 His affairs were going to ruin he was threatened with bankruptcy the vision of Mary, sweet and gentle, came before him.
 Suddenly a desperate resolve came to him. Why shouldn't he marry Mary Hale? Of course she suspected nothing. she thought 1t great honor when he smiled at her; and he was only fifty-three.
 It was true he had seen her walk ing out with one of the walters, fel- low named Jasper; but what weight would a waiter have against him. self?
 Under this inspiration he clapped on his hat and sallied out to luncheon.
 He had q shock when he saw Dick seated at the little table and Mary fluttering around him. He read filtration in Dicks attitude. And suddenly the awful realization came to him.
 Dick. having read the letter had got in ahead with youth and an hours start to his advantage.
 Dick saw him and rose sheepishly. Hello, dad. Guess I'll be getting back to the office"
 q guess you'd better" old Bower mumbled, and quietly took the va cant place, prepared for the whirl- wind courtship of his life. Before he rose he meant to have Mary's promise to become his wife.
 Over the soup he said: Mary, you're looking uncommonly blooming today"
 Mary blushed and looked flustered.

IMPROVING YELLOW
STONE H G III w A Y

Contracts are about to be let for
joint construction of more sections
Of the Yellowstone highway in Bing-
ham county. The contracts let last
summer for work between Blackfoot
and Shelley were at such low figure
that there was money left, and
there was a little more state and
federal money available than was
previously expected, so the rest OF
the money is to be used for build
ing a hard surfaced road from the
town to the Blackfoot river, and for
what is known as the Kimball hill
section. Work on this will begin as
soon as spring opens.
The section extending from the
Blackfoot river to the FIT. Hall pave
ment at Gibson, considered the
worst section of the highway, dis
lance of about five miles, is to be
paved this year. The develop
ment of farming on the reser-
walton and the heavy tourist and
brought arrangements for meeting
the demands of the federal govern
ment.
Much dissatisfaction has been
manifested over the fact that the
state and county had to pave the
sand belt at FIT. Hall, all situated on
the reservation, at a cost of nearly
100000, or suffer a broken link on
a great commercial artery. The de-
partment of. Indian affairs, the de-
partment of the interior and the
good roads agencies of the federal
government have come to see the
obligation owed to states and
counties in western states where
there are Indian reservations, and
the present arrangements to spend a
quarter of a million dollars on the
Shoshone and Bannock reservation
In Idaho comes with much 'satisfac-
ton to state and county officials,
who have been fathering the idea
and pushing 1t to fruitiOn.

menced Wednesday, Feb. FL. The
Job includes the Strengthening of the

IDAHO MAY LOSE A MILLION

Appropriation for 1928 on one
million dollars for the American
Falls reservoir, must be used before
July 1, or revert back to the govern
ment, said Barry Dibble, project
manager, in Rupert Tuesday, having
just returned from Washington. Pro-
visions for the appropriation are
that the water companies contract
ing for water from American Falls
reservoir first assume their obliga-
tions for which purpose the bond is
sue of the recently organized big
irrigation district, is to be held.
"The directors of the district do
not have to wait for the last election
proceedings to be confirmed before
calling a bond ISSUE" Mr.. Dibble told
a News representative. "It Is we'll
to get such things out of the way
first, but a million dollars is lot
of money and every dollar left I'M
spent on July 1 reverts back to the
government. If the election Is called
soon we will be able to use the
greater portion of it, at least, by that
date We have things well in hand
at American Falls to start in earnest,
once the bond issue is passed. / am
hoping they lost no time in calling
the election"
Appropriation of $1,500,000 for
the reservoir project was made for
1922. OF this amount approximately
100000 was spent in buying prop
erty and right-of-way at American
Falls, the balance reverting back to
Uncle Sam. For 1924 the appropria-
ton Is 100000. 1t Is expected that
much Of the $1,000,000 will be used
in purchasing remaining property
and rights necessary, many appraise-
ments having been made. This
would leave 100000 available after
July 1 this year for new work.
IT hope the directors Of the big
district will call an election In the
near future. I feel quite certain that
the project will carry and we are
anxious to start" said Mr.. Dibble.
While in Chicago on his recent
trip, the project manager had con-
ference with I. w. Kraft, of Kraft
Brothers, cheese manufacturers. He
says he found Mr.. Kraft enthusiastic
over this part of Idaho as dairy
center. He was particularly inter-
ested in the plans recently submitted
to finance for the buying of dairy
cows, according to the project
manager.-Rupert News.
