T7IE MORXIXG OREGOXIAX, SATURDAY. JANUARY 18, 1908. " 3 BY LILIAN TINGLE. COLUMBIA RIVEU. smelt, so difficult to obtain last Friday, are plentiful enough now, and cost only 5 cents a pound. Don't forget the hint I gave you about trying them baked, sardina fashion, with vinegar, spices and a shred of orange peel, and served cold, on lettuce, with mayonnaise or sauce tartar. There is no difficulty In get ting clams this week either, and In i addition to the hardshell ' and razor clams there are fine "butter clams" to be had at 20 cents a dozen. There were rnusscls also the small kind at 10 rent a nnunri: and crabs are again plentiful. j Sturgeon is In again and costs 15 cents a pound. People who love the j "dollar flavoring" and estimate any j particular dish according to what they have to pay for, might enjoy sturgeon I more if it cost S1.50 a pound as I have known it; but personally I prefer the first quoted price. Lobsters and Chinook salmon both cost 30 to 3a cents a pound yesterday, while steel head salmon was 20 cents. There was very fine striped bass at 25 cents and tyee trout at the" same price. Tomcod, catfish, sole, croppies and shrimps were all 15 cents a pound; black cod and halibut 12V to 15 cents; perch and herring 10 cents a pound. Turkeys are somewhat cheaper 20 to 25 cents for the best, but other poultry prices seem unchanged. There was a good supply of wild geese, cost ing from 50 to 75 cents each, and rab bits at 40 and 50 Cents each. I think a well-made rabbit pie or fricassee quite equal to chicken, especially If the chicken Is an elderly one or has spent many of its days In cold stor age. . There is little variety of fruit at present. Pineapples were plentiful and lower in price than they have been, very nice ones costing only 35 cents.' Grapefruit cost 75 cents and 1 a doz en; oranges run from 25 to 60 cents a dozen, and apples from to $3.50 a box. There are a .few grapes and pears tb be seen, -but they are not specially attractive just now. Cranberries are 15 cents a quart. The tender pink forced rhubarb is in and makes pretty little open tarts in the French style. When you look at the array of veg etables it U quite hard to believe that it is January. If you are wanting a change in green salads try some "field lettuce" or "fetticus," which is now to be had at 10 cents a pound. It Is good with a French dressing, I can testify, and ne of Portland's .highest authori ties on good things to eat informs me that to the masculine palate it is highly satisfactory if served with a hot bacon salad dressing, in which, of course, it wilts down somewhat. Head and hothouse lettuce, chicory, hothouse cu cumber and green onions are other available gre,en salads; and there are large radishes that might be served in the German fashion (though the Ger man radish is rather different both In flavor and appearance), sliced wafer thin like cucumber. There Is good celery of the large kind at 10 cents per bunch and small "celery hearts" at 25 cents for a bunch of 12. French artichokes are very good this week. Eggplant, peas and beans are all 20 cents a pound. Cau liflowers cost about 15 cents each; Brussels sprouts -15 cents a pound Green peppers are 35 cents a pound; cream squash'and spinach both 5 cents. and oil the establishment of the Joseph office as one of the third class she was continued as postmistress until the meet ing of Congress, when . she was again continued, thisj time under a four-year appointment.

Foulkes concluded his evangelistic services at the First Pres byterian Church last night with a ser mon on the mysterious power in the gospel" that attracts men. He said in part "For the last 2000 years the lives of men hava testified that some power has drawn "them toward Christianity something was acting as a magnet and attracted them. Despite all the abuses and hypocrisies heaped upon the church that power has grown until it Is the most potent in the world today. One answer Is that it is the church the heaven-ordained agency of God upon earth. I do not want to decry the glory of the church, but I realize that often the gospel has drawn men In spite of the church. Some say the Word of God is the power but there must be something beneath the Book as there must be something within the church. "Christ said if I be lifted up T will draw all men unto me. That is the answer. The uplifted, the truclfied Christ is the magnet of Christianity. His love and mercy persuade men of the reality of unseen things. By his two poles divinity and humanity he draws us. He is God and man with one hand reaching to us and the other to the Father. "There are some things a magnetj cannot araw ann so jurist uoes nui appeal to the base things within you. He takes hold of the best things with in you and if you will you may be lifted up. It is the Christ upon tha rross that is the magnet. By his life, even the skeptical world measures all men. If we are lifted up upon sclf SRcrlflce and lovo we have drawing powers and the church that Is lifted up lsa potent force for good."

It has always been the aim of the Canadian line to take good care of I he people traveling over its road by providing first-class accommodations at hotels on the journey.

Mr. Wisdom, of the Executive Committee of the Portland Country Club and Livestock Show, says many other true things pertaining to the advantages to a community of a large packing plant, in the Journal of January 14: Tho chief ad vantage to the consumer is the above fact that the! presence of such a plant makes a demand for the "best types of beef cattle" which means that you, the consum er, get a better type of beef than you would otherwise; you get the best that Ore gon can produce, when you demand "Is It U: S. Government Inspected?" Because the Government's stamp goes only on that which is absolutely wholesome. Patronize the industry that is helping Oregon stockraislng and bringing millions into Oregon.
