JUST IN TIME.
(From Tit-Bits.)
There is no doubt that tho tying
of a piece of string around the finger
is a really good aid to a poor mem
ory, but there is a well-authenticated
case of a man who tied a piece of
cotton around his linger in the "morn
ing to remind him to get his hair cut.
On the way home to dinner that
ovenlng he noticed the piece of cot
ton. "Oh, yes, I romernber," he said.
And, smiling proudly, he entered
the accustomed shop and sat down
s before the tonsorial operator.
"Er-yes, sir?" said the artist, puz
zled Inquiry In his tones.
' "Eh? Oh, yes, cut my hair, please,"
commanded the absent minded one
curtly.
"Eh? Certainly, sir, If you wish it,'
said the artlsL "tfut you won't mind
my mentioning the fact that I cut it
this morning, sir, will you?"

IDAHO ENDS YEAR
OF HEAVY OUTPUT
Washington, Jan 13. A general In
crease was shown in the production
from Idaho mines In 1911, according
to C. N. Gerry of the United Statc3
geological qurvey. This was attrlb
utab leto tho Increased production
of all ores except those carrying cop
per and sllecious ores, the production
of which decreased In Shoshone and
Owyhee counties The most notable
increases were in zinc ores, silver
lead ores and placer gold. A gain
of nearly 13 per cent in tho gold out
put places the production back at a
normal figure after a strikingly low
output In 1910 Gold and silver pro
duction has gradually decreased In
Owyhee count,y and Boise county
took the lead In 1911 in gold produc
tion with Elmore county probablv
third.
Seven dredges were active In Boise,
Clearwater and Lemhi counties and
good results were obtained Gold out
put from copper ore decreased In Sho
shone county owing to tho small pro
duction from the Snow Storm mine,
but this was offset by the gold pro
duction from copper ore in Custer
county Gold production from lead
ores Increased matorlally In 1911,
along with increased tonnage and
lead ores mined, both In Shoshone and
Lemhi counties
Lead-Silver Ores.
Owing to the Increased production
of lead-silver ores from tho Coeur
d'Alono and Gllmore mines, tho sil
ver output was considerably increas
ed, although silver production from sl
lecious and copper oros showed a
falling off The increase in silver pro
duction was duo in part to the im
provement of the ore in the Hunter
district and the development of new
producers at Wardner and near Mur
ray. The Seven Devils district mar
keted a greater quantity of copper
ore, but the lead ore output of Blaine
county showed a decroase.
In Boise county the Whitman, Gold
en Age and Gold Hill &. Iowa deep
mlnos waw nrnrinnlncr and the Molincv
Boston & Idahb and White Quartz
properties were the largest producers
of placer gold.
Custer county gold and silver pro
duction came mainly from the lost
Packer and Empire copper ore. The
gold and silver output from Elmoro
county showed a great increase A
custom mill was erected at Elk City
and bullion was produced from the
South Fork, Idaho, Champion, Mos
cow and Eagle mines.
Value of Output.
Lemhi county nearlv tripled tbo out
put of lead ores which contain pold
and' silver In notable quantity. The
KItiy Burton was the largest produc
er of gold. The DeLamar was tho
v only largo producer of Owyhee coun
ts'. Tho Couer d'Alene district was
' unusually free from interruption of '
production. The old producers In
creased their shipments and several
new ' producers were added.
According to preliminary figures
compiled by the director of tho mint,
Idaho produced In 1911 gold valued at
?1,1G9,2C1, and 7,507,802 fine ounces
of silver, valued at 51.129,292, against
$1,035,900 in gold, and 7,027000 ounces
of silver, valued nt.$3t794,CQ0 in 1910.

Salt Lake, Jan. 13. Exalted Rulor
Dr. S. Ewlng of Salt Lake lodgo No.
S5, B. P. O E., received a telegram
lato yesterday aftornoon that brought
Joy to the hearts of local Elks and Is
bound to have a stimulating offecL
Tho telegram was from John P Sull
ivan of Now Orleans, grand exalted
ruler of the order of Elks, and it
conveyed the Information that he had
granted a special dispensation to Salt
Lake lodge to Initiate as members
thirty-eight prominent business men
of Ely, Nov.
Sovoral weeks ago a large party of
Ely citizens made application to Salt
Lake lodge for membership, but ow
ing to the fact that the grand lodgo
laws provide than an applicant must
join the nearest lodge to his place of
residence there was for a time doubt
as to what could bo done in the prem
ises. An Investigation disclosed the fart
that Tonopah lodgo was nearer on an
air lino by forty Tniles, but bv rail
road, and that's the way the Elks
travel, unless they have an automo
bile or an aeroplane, Salt I ako Is
nearer by about 376 miles. This, cou
pled by tho further fact that a J)lg
majority of the appllcanto are former
Salt Lakers, caused officers of the
lodgo to take the matter up with
Grand Exalted Ruler Sullivan, and
request a special dispensation This
has now boon granted and thirty
eight applicants already elected to
membership will be initiated this
month.
The prospective Elks will come
from Ely on a special train tho lat
ter part of this month, a special rate
already having been granted by tho
railroads Tho delegation will he 100
strong, aa many are anxious to ac
company the applicants and spend a
fow days In Utah's metropolis. Offi
cers of the local lodge have already
bocun nronarnllons for tho entertain
ment of tho visitors.
The dispensation mean,; a big
thing for Salt Lake lodpo in more

CHILDREN,
T(VBLAME
The students and faculty of tho We
ber academy were addre'ssed by Dr.
Oowans of the State Industrial school
last Wednesday morning on the sub
ject of "Preparation for Parenthood."
Tho theme Is one of most vital Impor
tance to the generations of today and
too much stress cannot be laid upon
this facL Dr. Gowans says that the
first essential in the preparation for
parenthood Is cleanness. This term
does not only moan soap and water
cleanliness, which Is absolutely nec
essary, but includes freodom from any
and every contagious and incurable
disease. It means that persons about
to enter marital relations should be
free from tho effects of alcohol, drugs
and tobacco. If tbej are affected with
any disease or poison, they are en
tirely unfit for marriage So great u
part does heredity play with the hu
man race that it is absolutely neces
sary for parents to be clean, If they
desire their children to be. It is a
known fact that, In almost every case,
children forced to go to tho Indus
trial school, the insane asylum and
other Institutions of the kln'J ail
sent there as a result of the unclean
ness of their fathers and mothers.
Dr Gowans bolievcs that in the
near future the proper attention will(
bo devoted to this very important
subject and that the schools will be
judged as to quality by the greatest
number of truo men and women that
leave them.
During tho past week Weber acad
emy was honored by the presence of
two distinguished visitors, Prof. Bar
rows of the Box Elder High school
and Geo. II. Hall of Ogden. They
remained the greater part of the day
visiting many of the classes and all
tho different departments of the
school

WERE LOOKING
FOR LITTLE FARM
SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 12. Abner
Hammond, 90 years old, and his wife,
who is 80, arrived In San Francisco
early today from Lyons, Wayne
county, M. Y "seeking new oppor
tunities," The Ferry station was stormed with
the rush of the early commuters just
as the aged adventurers got off the
boat and .they were caught in the
crowds.
"I didn't think there"d be so many
people out here," said Mr, Hammond,
querulously.
Ho carried his earthly belongings
in a battered telescopic suitcase and
"mother" clung to his hand.
From an old wallet, bound with a
string of interminable length, tho
aged argonaut drew a real estate fold
er, showing a rose-bowcred bunga
low and a generous invitation to
"come to sunny California "
"We weren't getting on vory well',"
he said, "and we thought we would
come out hero and get into some-,
thing. We had $150 In the bank, but
It took It all to get out here. I know
a man named J L. Harris In Lob An
geles, nnd I guess he can give us
some advice, if we can get down
thore I'd like to have a little farm."
"I used to make tho best butter
of anybody in our township," added
"mother" as she deftly adjusted Mr.
Hammond's black string tic.
The travelers were taken to tho
Young Woman's Christian association
home, where they will be assisted in
their journey to Los Angeles.
