Everybody ought to bathe In It O. W. Holme. Mirth a medicine? Certainly, and a good one better than most of the prescriptions of ma teria medica. It is one of nature's real tonics, a balm for life's bruises. salve for sorrows, a liniment for grouches, a panacea for worry. Dr. Sanderson says: "Mirth, cheerfulness, Is a better stlm ulant for the tissues of the body than drugs, which react Laughter la an actual life giving Influence" Another physician says, "Fun Is a food and as necessary to wholesomeness as bread.' Therefore laugh. We take life too seriously. We do not laugh enough. Or we Indulge In a stingy sort of mirth. Some of us laugh so seldom we lose the bablt of it A laugh Is a massage. Figures of speech aside, a good laugh is a real massage treatment When you laugh heartily your diaphragm gets busy. In moving rapidly up and down It massages the liver, stirring that or gan up to Its duty. It affects other or gans also. "Laugh and grow fat" Is the shrewd observation of many generations. The old kings were wise. They hir ed Jesters to make tbem laugh. And Lycurgus, cble lawmaker, set up the god of laughter In the public dining rooms of Sparta. Laughter is a good buffer. It Is like the shock absorbers folks put in the springs of their automo biles. It helps to carry one easily over the knobs and "thank-you-ma'ms of life's rugged road. And it reduces friction everywhere. Laughter is normal. Good health and physical and mental harmony require that the funmaking propensities should be released. Laugh ter does mat lr these natural pro pensities are kept back one bas an. attack of "the blues;" If totally re pressed insanity. Laugh and succeed. If you bottle up your visible spirits yon paralyze your personality. A cheerful spirit and a hearty laugh smooth out many wrinkles of business Men and women go every year to premature graves horn use they have forgotten how to laugh Laugh and stay above ground. THE GREATEST MAN. The greatest man is he who chooses the right with invincible resolution, who resist the sorest temptationi (rom within and without, who bears the heaviest burdens ciieerfully, who is calmest in storms, most fearless under menace and frowns and whose reliance on truth, on virtue, on God, is most unfaltering.

"Now. go." said the marquis to the two younger oues. "You, my dear nephew, have received my consent and you, Ceclle, have obtained tha same from your aunt I will take care of you, and the baroness will probably not be lacking In gifts." "I certainly will do my part." said the baroness. "Cncle," said the young man Joy ously, "you are one of uature'a as well as one of the natiou's noblemen." "Aunty." said the girl. "I shall en deavor to be worthy of your kind ness." The young couple strolled off Into another of the suit of rooms, leavlug the older ones together. "Nature aa well as history," said the tnarquls, "repeats Itself, Do you re member the day we received your fa ther's blessing!" 'Perfectly, and bow Joyous I was. Then when the trouble between ns came 1 was In despair. I did not know It waa a blessing In disguise." 'How do you know It waa a bless- lngr 'From friends who have married and been miserable. I can count tbem on my fingers. There's Ellse." putting the forefinger of ber left band on the little finger of her right "and Annette, and Fancbette" "Yes.- and among my friends I can count aa many who are supremely happy." "The romance fades" "But it gives place to an enduring affection." "These young neopl' who have Just left us will keep up a pretense of de ferring to each other till the day after they return from their wedding tour; then they will begin to quarrel." "But they will gradually grow near er and dearer to each other. They will wrangle, but that Is beeause each knows the other will endure such wrangllngs from a mate." "But there are those whose quarrels grow more and more violent.' "Tbey are but a small proportion of the whole." "Ah. marqnis. yon nave been eon verted too late. You are not old. but too old to feel love Imsed on compan ionship." "First love I have ned tbloiiL'D Unfortunately fate did u't permit lu my case the nii-reeding siate. I nave been, as U were, in condition of u pense." She east her eye to the flrwr "Whose fanlt wi It V she asked. "Fate's I said fate prevented, did I not? Nothing but fate can come be tween a Injy and girl who love. 1 was young, and I did not understand you Lovers need to be tied together to pre vent their flying apart. Marriage does that Once murrled. they have to learn to bear with each other. And when the child comes there Is another reason why they must not fly apart Married and with a child, disunion la frightful. They will endure real wrongs rather than that" "And think of the absurdity that caused us to fly apart!" "1 have forgotten what It was." "we were playing tennis." "1 remember." "A ball I sent you you claimed to be fonL" "Now I recollect" "1 accused you of purposely seeing wrong." "So you did." "And you told me you were not In the habit of being accused of cheat ing." "That's right. Go on." "I threw down my racket and. with my nose In the air. marched off the court" "Ah. yes. I have It now. and I said to myself. 'I don't want a wife who acts like that' " "And from then till now not a word of love has passed between us " "now stupldT "We should have been whipped ami ordered to make up like children." There was a short silence between tbem, broken by the marquis. 'Something of more substance than romantic love drives me to marriage. Youth having passed. I need compan ionship.

If you. a man, would bear anything for the dear little ones, bow wonld It be with the woman wbo is mnch near er to tbem than the man?' "It Is not too late." "Yes: It Is too late." "No. Shall we risk It?" She smiled. "What amuses yon?" "The difference between this court ship and onr former one." And I trust our relationship shall lot be broken by a tennis ball. See that young rascal In there? He Is stealing his arm around your niece's waist He la Imprinting a kiss on ber lips." "Yno are crushing the flowers In my rorsiere.

Time that scars us, Maims aud mars us U'nvea no track or trace on thee, suid Sam Simpson many years ago about the river that runs through our town. For a long time, though, the policy has been to put on the river bank exerythlng objectionable ami dis agreeable that no one will stand any oilier place. The sight seer, having seen all of Main atreet, thinks be will stroll down to the edge of the river and spend a little time watching the water, but first he runs Into an odor, then Into an advertisement for shoes or Is It tobacco? According to some of our legal tal ent it rests, entirely with the city whether we shall have a shore line that will bo known for Ita beauty wherever Oregon Is known or whether we shall rontlnuo to have unsanitary, unsightly stables. It Is mostly city property, and having It cleared does not call for an expenditure or much money. We hear so much of the ''beautiful Hudson, ' but a great deal has been done to beautify It, whereas all the Willamette needs la to be left alone ctven a chance. It Is already beauti ful beyond description where the march of civilization" has not plant ed Its banner In the way of a barn or a shack. We are not asking the city for a boulevard or promenade or anything else expensive Just a clean river hank, free from stables and foul odors, and with the sewers a little less In evidence. Sam Simpson goes on to say: "Spring's green witchery Is weaving, Bright and brighter at thy side; Grace forever haunts thy Journey, Beauty dimples In thy tide. It Is about aa correct a description of the river as It now appears as some epitaphs are of an Idealized do Darted. It seems almost a sacrilege to parody "Beautiful Willamette." but If Sam Simpson were to write of It to day he -would be obliged to say some thing about like this: Barns and sewers grace thy shore line Cans and garbage at thy side; Shacks and billboards haunt thy Journey, Typhoid lurks within thy tide.

OREGON CITY HIGH ADMITTED TO LEAGUE Informatimj was received Wednes day from the directors of the Portland Interscholastlc League that the Ore gon City High School had been admit ted to the league and will take part in the track meet to be held by them on Multnomah Field May 25. The track squad will begin actucl training next Monday afternoon. There are several very promising candidates for places and they will be trained by Captain Sheahan.

The Meldrum Pastime Club met at the home of Mrs. Charles Ryan Tues day afternoon ,and there was a good attendance. The decorations, which were very attractive, consisted of hearts and ferns. Mrs. Tabor gave a reading during the afternoon, which was much enjoyed br those In atten dance. RefreHhmenta were served during the afternoon, and a most en- ioyable time was had. The next meet Ing of the club will be at the home 01 Mrs. Erickson. WASHINGTON. Feb. 9. President Tatt will have 710 votes out of the total of 1,07(5 on the first ballot at the Chicago convention, or 211 more than the majority necessary for nomlna tion, according to Representative William McKlnley. of Illinois; C. I). Ililles, secretary to the President, and Secretary Murray Crane, of Massachusetts. The three held a conference today, which, practically was the opening of thn Taft campaign. The figures were reached after careful canvass of the country, It was said. Active work for the renomlnntlnn and re-election of Presldont Taft aside from that done at the White House, began here today when Mc Klnley, chairman of the Republican Congressional campaign committee took up his new duties as manager of the Taft campaign. McKinloy began work early, and plinred to see many of the party lead er in Washington. Quarters for the Taft boomers have not been secured but within a few days McKlnley ex pects to open offices. Although Republican leaders said today that it was too early to talk about tiie plans of campaign after thn Chicago convention, many friends of McKlnlev were of the opinion that If President Taft Is renominated, Mc Klnley will be his choice for chair man of the Republican National Com- mltee McKlnley probably would bo acccplable to all the old-line party leaders S"me of these loadors ob jected lo postmaster-General Hitch cock and to Ililles, both prominently mentioned heretofore for National chairman. MEXICAN REBELS LOSE 100 IN FIGHT (Continued from page 1) was again called Into play and while the field guns were dragged Into posi tion from the rear the Infantry storm ed the trenched.

Thn Portland Union Storg Yards Company reporta as follows: Receipts for tho week have been: Cattle K78; calves, 1(2: hogs, 1,845; sheep, 2,972; horses, 91. The steer market did not recover any strength during the week Just closing. I'ackera and butchers com plained that with their coolers full and their feed lots 'overflowing they have not found the demand for beef strong enough to rut down their sup plies. Thn row market showed a stronger upward tendency. Market prophets do not look for any Improve ment at an early dute. Tho hog market was strong to nlcklo higher. Tops sold at 6.75 and there was a snappy demand for all that waa offered. The market for sheep was about steady at last week's prices. Year! lugs sold at It 85 and lambs at $5.

Where the Minister Was Wrong. "Ibe minister prayed at my bed side." said the gentle old lady. "He thanked the Lord for giving me so much patience to bear my atllictions, but I told him I didn't bare a spark of patletK-e. Wbst I did bsve were friends and kindly visitors snd flow era and rrult and tender message sent in every day to tell me that folks cared about me still. It wasn't my patience that carried me throuch: it wss the goodness of other p p.e " j lSewark .Nei 1 A lollv crowd of Gladstone young people attended the masquerade Dan given at Harding Grange Hall at Lo gan Saturday night The party went out for a good time and certainly had It. They left Gladstone at 7 o'clock and returned about noon sunaay. Those attending were Miss Nellie Re buff and Miss Ethel Sharfe, two of the popular teachers In the Gladstone school: Miss Ross and Messrs. Curt Miller, William Burns and Tom Burns.

J jr AT VALLEY POINTS There has been heavy buying of hops In the Willamette Valley during the past twenty-four hours. Dealers that are supposed to be operating for the account of short sellers have been the principal opera tors. The price paid ranged from 25 to 20c a pound for ordinary goods. Practically all the weak growers have sold tbelr holdings and the mar ket Is again firm with the indications strongly for an advance. There are plenty of orders now available and everyone Is now trying to buy. Most of the business that hag pass ed recently has been for foreign ship ment. This would Indicate that the shorts are making their profits as It was in Europe that they began to beat down the price or Pacific Coast hops. Among the operators who are re ported to have secured supplies since Saturday are Harry L. Hart, A. J. Ray, Pincus & Sons and Seavey Hoy Company. The purchases were en tirely confined to small lots from var ious dealers. Holders of better quality hops are refusing offerings that are within a fraction of 39c a pound therefore the outlook Is much more favorable than for some time. All the efforts of shorts to force the selling of contracts have thus far failed. Business Is available around 20 l-2c and even better for selected lots of J912s. Notwithstanding the ' fuct that the apple crop of the United States this season was greater than for many years, thn dried fruit trade Is feeling the effects of an unusually henry Eu ropean call. For that reason stocks of dried or evaporated apples In coast markets are being well cleaned up. Even the heavy offerings that have been flood Ing the Eastern trade are now prnctl cally out of the way and prices are responding to the stronger influence. The market for dried prunes, while nominal Is showing the highest price In years In the East, where the trade Is crying for the coast to offer. Sales are being made In the New York mar ket as high as 1.11 -2c a pound, with practically no favorable sizes availa ble except In small lots, at any price, The extent of the shipments to New York can be seen when an official report made by the trado there shows that up to February 3 the receipts for the season were 609,075 esses compared with arrivals of 203,- 334 cases for the sume period a year ago. POTATO DEMAND INCREASES DAILY As a result of the continued good Southern demand and a more general (llsiMiHltlou to sell on the part of the farmers, Oregon potutoes now aro moving more freely ttinn was the case a week or a month ago. Buyers for the distant markets report trado In the country still lighter than usual nt this tlmo of tha year, but the out look now Is for a more active move ment from this time on to the end of the season. "The growers are beginning to rea lize tint It would b isxir policy to hold off thn market altogether now and later unload In such a way as to break It altogether, said a denier, "The farmers can now get fair prices for nil tho good stock they care to dis pose of from l to $1 25 a hundred for lltirbanks, according to quality and there Is no doubt that by mod erate selling they ran take cars of the market. "On the other hand, If the growers were to maintain their bullish attitude and refuse to sell, and a month or two later suddenly dec.de to let go, tha chances are that (he market would go completely to pieces. We would not advise too free selling nt tills time, but It Is clearly thn course of wisdom for tho farmer now to dispose of a part of their holdings In order that the surplus toward the end of tho season may not be so heavy us to overburden the market." Practically all the potutoes now go ing out are being sent to California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. Cali fornia, however, Is taking only strictly fancy stock, for that state Is still well supplied with the cheaper grades of homegrown products. In tho states on the Mexican border the prospect Is for a continued fair demand for Oregons, unci locnl dealers say there Is no doubt that tho surplus In this state ran bo dlsHsed of In tho few months that remain of the present sea son ,lf the crop is wisely marketed. In some quarters the belief prevails that prices will gradually Improve us thn season ndvances. POTATO DEMAND SHOWS INCREASE There Is better selling of potatoes at country points and the outward movemc-nt la again Increasing. Sjnplies re going to California, Arisio.ia and Texas with the shipments almost equally divided between the three selections. Some extra fancy po tatoes are going toward San Francis co but the bulk of the table stock des tined for California Is for the account of Los Angeles and central state In terests, outside of the Bay City. Some seed American Wonders are still going forward to southern and central California. The price being paid for this class of atock averages $1.50 per cental at country shipping points, Willamette Valley. As a rule dealers are offering from $1 to $1.05 for choice table stock. The fact that the markets elsewhere have not Improved In price during recent weeks has caused many growers to change their opinions regarding the future and this class of potatoes is being offered much more freely than formerly. Extra fancy stock is only available In small lots. There wag a small stock of fancy potatoes grown here this sea son notwithstanding the big crop. Far the greatest per cent of the crop was rough owing to changing growth with various weather conditions. Prevailing Oregon City prices are as follows: DRIED FRUITS (Buying) Prunes on basis of 6 1-4 poundr for 45-60's. Fruits, Vegetables. HIDES (Buying) Green hides, 7c to 9c; snlters, 5to 6c; dry hides, 12c to 14c; sheep pelts, 25c to 75c each. Hay, Grain, Feed.
