Junction City I ha known Ben Selling for IS years. I'urlng a part of that time I was Chief Clerk of the Oregon State Senste, when Mr. Selling was a member of that body. Ills efforts at all times were given In the Interest of the people. He waa railed the watchdog of the state treas ury and no uncertain measure was ettempted when Mr. Selling was In the Senate chamber. Mr. Selling would rep. rsent Oregon in the National Senate with dignity and honor and would get rrsulta for the stale. He is a clean man morally and worthy the support of every voter who desires to be rep resented by a progressive, upright and honorable cttlien. STITCHES IN A COAT. lhis Tailor Counted Them and There Are Jn.t ?2.93 7. Kansas City Cor. New Tork World. VI hlle the season was still slack In t'le tailoring business. Herman Axene. a tailor In the Waldheim building, took time to count the stitches In the last cst he made. He found 3I.37 IJ.-S-i4 machine stitches and 9137 hand stitches. The roat the count was made on was s four-button k. 31 Inches long and single-stitched. A frock or evening coat or a douKe-stitched street gar. menu of course, would require many more stitches.

But adjustment has not only to' do with the great thing J. as work and fr1ent: It has to do with countless lit tle thisjgs which are In a 1 way . more personal. Two people cannot possibly learn to live with eah other without compromise on the part of one or both; It should be of both. One or both are sure to be Irritated by little habits or mannerisms of the other; that means that the habit must be given up or else a large share of self-control be called upon. It takes tact to arrange such matters. There is a woman who for -0 years ha picked up the burnt matchee which her husband throws on the floor after he lights the gas. She didn't think the habit mattered at first, but she does now when she counts up the thousands of times s'ie hss wasted un necessary energy In stooping. There Is another woman who bickers a good deal with her husband, and the quarrel usually starts because she Is impatient of the way he sits with his fists on his knees, and his thumbs clenched within his fists. The first woman should have made her husband pick up the matches In the early bridal days: together they might have done It till she had broken him of the habit. The htishsnd of the second woman Inherited his mannerism through two generations: she should have known that he could not correct It without wasting ,too much energy, and she should have steeled herself to endure It. It takes thought to distinguish be tween a habit which ran be changed and one which must be endured. If a msn has an Irritating- way of widening FOR PRESIDENT WILLIAM. H. TAFT DR.

Hla Platform a Remarkable neeiaratlon. In this remarkable declaration of faith In the people, colonel Roosevelt states that "we Progressives believe that the people have the right, the power end the duty to protect them selves and their own welfare; the hu man rights are supreme over all other rights: thst wealth should b the serv ant, not the master, of the people:" that "we hold It a private duty of the people to free our Government from the control of money In politics;" and that "for this purpose we advocate, not as ends In themselves, but as wea pons In the hands or tne people, an governmental devices-which will miK the representatives of the people more easily and certainly responsible to tha people's will." Among these weapons he commends the short ballot, direct nominations, the direct election of Sen ators, the Initiative and referendum, the recall of Judges "as a last resort," and the recall of Judicial decisions. Ia Finishing. A subtraction from an editorial- of the Dally Capital Journal, of Salem, published April 10. 1912, will show the general feeling: "Roosevelt's candidacy really means an uprising against political crooked ness. "It means that man shall not put party before common honesty and that officials should not use their political power to shield corruption and burden the people with graft and extrava gance." We close the above with the satis fled feeling that we have given the people one more opportunity to under stand through this paid advertisement. hla nostrils or giggling foolishly before he tells a funny story, the mannerism Is one whlclr he csn probably not over come, and the funny story ought to be considered sufficient to make up for It. If. however, he shaves untidily, leaving a brush full of sud by the washbasin, and perhaps soiled paper, the conclu sion Is that he has been living a bache lor in a boarding-house, and must be taught the neat habits which become a happy home. Nothing Is so dear to a man or a poman as his or her little bad habits. A man wants to scatter the ashes from his cigar on a bit of newspaper instead of walking over and getting his ssh-trsy: It Is an accident of course that the paper sometimes up sets. A woman may want to fko to breakfast In a dressing Jacket when her husband Is Impstlent of anything but a trim appearance In the morning. The husband may forget to turn llghtn out after he is through using a room, while his wife's pet economy may be the saving of gs and . efc-ctrlc lighi. A man may like lo poke In the kitchen to see what there Is going to be for din nrr. while his wife may have an in herlted d-lsllke of a man ever appear Ing in woman's domain. The huxbaml mav detest csts. and the wife may want to have one for a pet. W Is surprising how much the happi ness of the home depends on the tact fu compromise of such differences. It Is not so much the mere fact of the point of view or preference of each be ing different: it is the friction, the dis putes that may arise from the differ ences. and rankle until they grow Into a real obstacle to understanding, to pea"-e. Each one whose habit is Inter fered with feels aggrieved; obstinacy and egotism show their ugly faces, snd frown down on the unity of the hearth. The best way of beginning to compro mise, to see the other person's point of view. Is to admit thst one may posslbly be wrong. It Is safer to talk the mat ter over reasonably, not to ignore It. which may lead to a breach as definite ly as a dispute would, and also not to quarrel. Nothing is ever gained by bested wbrds. It is not true what the poet says:' "Lover's quarrels lead to love's renewal." That may be the case for a little while, but Is not permanent ly true. The wife above all should be slow to take offense, for as a rule she - .... A ! -( ' ' ' - - i " ' s ,' s f "... ' -I t MlSi ' f " 7 ; - , '' " 7 ..;.:'.-. . ' -V-. ' -. - v .- . , J Robt. S.
