JAMES MADISON AND
DOLLY MADISON

&C A FEW hours have passed only
= since you left me, my beloved,
and / find nothing can relieve the OPP
preston of my mind but speaking to
you in this, the only way. DR.. Physic
called before you had gone far, but ]
could only find voice to tell him my
knee felt better. Betsy Pemberton and
Amy are sitting by me and seem to re-
spect the grief they know feel at even
so short separation from one who is
all to me. l shall be better when Pc
ter returns with news-nOt that any
length of time could lessen my first re-
greet, but an assurance that you are
well and easy will contribute to make
me so. Betsy puts on your hat to
divert me, but cannot look at her.
Farewell until tomorrow, my best
friend; think Of thy wife who thinks
and dreams Of thee.
DOLLY"
This endearing letter was written by
the famous Dolly Madison to her hus-
band, James Madison. Their separa-
ton was not very serious-he went to
Washington while she remained for
short time in Philadelphia to cure q
lame knee; but it was their first sep
aration and they suffered out of pro-
portion to the cause.
James Madison was Dolly's second
husband. Dorothy Paine, granddaugh'
ter of John Paine, one Of the early set
tiers In Virginia, had married Penn
sylvania lawyer named John Todd
when she was nineteen. Two year
later the yellow fever epidemic had
made her a widow and in the following
year, she met and married James Mad
ison, a match which gave great. pleas.
ure to President and Mrs. Washington
who took fond interest in the couple.
Dolly Madison was remarkable for her
beauty, culture and social leadership,
and her life with Madison, who became
the fourth President of the United
States, was idyllic and covered hap
py period Of AZ years.

is THIS YOUR CHILD?

Many children by reason of having
bad and defective eyesight do not
make the proper progress in school.
These defects are rarely discovered
without Il complete examination by
an eyesight specialist, children who
do not progress in school, who are in
clined to play truant, have head
aches and stopped shoulders, hard to
control, should by all means have
their eyes looked after at once.
The child who is slow to learn is
ridiculed by his mates, censored by
the teacher and blamed by the par
ent. Think what this is to a sensi-
tive child. It breeds dislike for
studies and hatred to ALL and in
many cases leads to the juvenile
court.
Bring the child in and let me make
an examination and 1 will tell you
the exact condition and then proper
ly fitted glasses will make the child
normal and healthy.
For results, see DIR. JACKSON, the
Eyesight Specialist, Office in Smith
Jewelry Store, opposite Camas Prairie
Bank, Main, st. Grangeville, Idaho.

ON YOUTH AND AGE

No person could follow all the
directions far preserving youth be-
cause there would be too many con-
flicting instructions. We would eth
err eat garlic or we wouldn't; we
would either smoke or we wouldn't;
we would either take a roll in the
snow (sans clOthing) whenever pos
sible, or we would jump into n
steaming sweat bath. This is because
scientists, physicians, and patent
medicine ad writer's disagree.
The best way to keep young is to
forget all about your age. About the
only time we need our age is when
we begin to vote, or "begin" to get
married, or for some other statisti-
cal purposes. After that our age is
a burden and it stares us in the face
without any use whatever. Often we
read or hear of some old person who
does not know his or her age, but
who is reputed to be far above one
hundred. 1t is quite likely that this
absence Of knowledge of age contri-
buted to the longevity more than
onions or garlic, whisky, or setting
up exercises, or any of the follde-rol
instructions of actresses press agents.
A good way to stay young is to be
young. Just simply refuse to get
old. Say to yourself, "old fellow, if
you want to grow old, go TO it. I'm
going to stay young" Think youth,
appreciate youth, play with youth.
Do not allow your dignity to make
you stiff. Life is youth, and youth is
life. Let each passing birthday be
a stepping stone upward, not down
ward. AS we mature we take on
more wisdom, and wisdom is life and
happiness, or at least a part of it.
We cannot see ragged urchin,
or hear the prattle of a child with
out starting life all over again. We
cannot gaze at the twinkling stars
or feel the warm rays of the summer
sun without breathing again the
first pure breath Of creation. The
real fountain of youth is ever about
us if we will but reach out and battle
in its ever-beckoning spray.
