THE GENTLEMAN.
Robert E. Lee's Definition ef the Quali
ties That Mak. Him.
Lee hated parade, display and cere
mony, bated above all things being
made an object of public gaze and
adulation. His Idea of high position
wns high responsibility, a superior was
simply one who hud larger duties, and
the mark of a gentleman was a keen
sense of the feelings and susceptibili
ties of others. No one has ever ex
pressed this attitude more delicately
than he himself in this memorandum
found among his papers after bis
death:
"The forbearing use of power does
not only form a touchstone, but the
manner In which an Individual enjoys
certain advantages over others Is a
test of a true gentleman. The power
GEOGRAPHICAL NAMES.
Racial Marks Left by Our Early Ex
plorer and Settlers.
While most of the ststes of the Mis
sissippi valley, besides countless riv
ers and takes in all parts of the a
try, bear Indian names, but a h ',11
number only of the towns that are
the work of the white man have adopt
ed names borrowed from the original
owners of the land. Not one In ten. It
has been pointed out, of the 150 large
dtles has an Indian name, and among
those that have It is usually an adop
tion from some neighboring lake or
stream.

left their racial marks. Up the Bud
son and Mohawk the trail of the
Dutchman is pretty clear. The French
Influence in northern New York and
Vermont and along the tine of the
great lakes is familiar. In many names.
Mississippi has no "saints" in Its
list, whereas, across the river, Louisi
ana, by nine parishes and many towns,
rivers and lakes, perpetuates the re
ligious tenets of its early settlers.
Kentucky and Tennessee evidence the
vocabulary of the hunter and trapper;
Montana and Idaho that of the miner.
AH the region acquired from Mexico,
particularly southern California, main
tains in Its place names the memory of
Its Spanish explorers and settlers.
There are relatively few Indian
names on the Pacific coast. North pf
the Spanish belt copes and towns fre
quently reflect the loyalty of early set
tlers to the older states of the Union.

follows:
i Burley, Ida., Nov. 24. Agricultural
Superintendent Pingree of the Amal
gamated" Sugar company, and several
others have been in this field for some
days past holding meetings with the
farmers with a view to the establish
ment of a sugar factory somewhere
in Cassia county. While Mr. Pingree
has done no talking for publication,
it is generally understood that the
encoruagement received from every
section is sufficient to justify the be
lief that this part of 'Idaho will have
a sugar factory during the year 1912.
Well authenticated reports state that
the plant Intended to be built here will
be removed from La Grande, Ore., as
the magistrate over the citizen, the
employer over the employed, the edu
cated over the unlettered, the experi
enced over the confiding, even the
clever over the silly the forbearing or
Inoffensive use of all this power or au
thority or a total abstinence from It
when the case admits It, will show the
gentleman In a plain light The gen
tleman does not needlessly and unnec
essarily remind an offender of a wrong
he may have committed against him.
He cannot only forgive; he can forget,
and he strives for that nobleness of
self and mildness of character which
Impart sufficient strength to let the
past be but the past A true man of
honor feels bumbled himself when he

SKIN OF A BADGER.
So Loos the Animal Can Almost Turn

The pelt of an adult badger is ex

the skin cover the body tbat the animal

bide.
- Should a dog acquire a hold on the
thront the badger turns himself so that
the dog's grip Is on the back of the
builder's neck without having loosened
his first bold. Then the badger seenres
a viselike grip upon some vulnerable
portion of his enemy, and while bis
loug tusks penetrate to the limit he
digs and scratches with his front feet,

expected from an anteater of the dark

badger and Is at all observing does not
wonder st this animal being sharp bit

bulldog tenacity when the formation
and adjustment of his Jaws are noted.
Neither is It no much of a mystery bow
he manages to bore through the soil so
rapidly that half a dosen men with
shovels cannot overtake him, for he Is
mass of cords and muscles, partic
ularly in the neck, chest and shoulders,

Live on Two 8impla Msals of
Bread and Dates a Day.
The dally routine of the Arab is sim
ple and well ordered. He Is up with
the daybreak and as soon as possible
loads his camels; then he rides for
some four or five hours before he has
his first morning meal; then he Is off
again until late in the afternoon, when
a halt is made for the night Supper
usually consists of warm bread, with
an onion or dates as a relish. Bread
Is prepared In as simple a manner as
possible. While the coarse flour and
water are being kneaded into dough a
j large fire Is made, which provides s
good heap or hot ashes. On part of
these the flattened dough is laid, then
covered with the remainder of the
ashes.
In about fifteen minutes the dough
Is sufficiently bnked. It Is then well
beaten to free It from ashes, broken In
pieces and divided among those who
from their bags have contributed the
meal After the evening feast coffee
Is made by some member of the party
and, poured out Into tiny cups, Is sol
emnly handed around to each one.
Dates often take the place of bread
In Arabia. There are many varieties,
and the composition of the date does
not differ so very much from that of
bread. Fat Is lacking in both, but
this Is supplied by the butter churned
to skin bags suspended from a tripod
and shaken or rolled on the ground.-'
