That wiih tho pathetic complaint of n Standard Oil attorney recently in his argument before tho United Sta tes supremo court In defense of his client. What ho complained of Is true, nml as ho contended, In a measure unjust. Hut thoro Is a reason for It. Whllo tho Standard Oil company lins ren dered tho world n largo service in tho oil business, its great motives 'havo heon nssontlally sulllsh and Its methods havo beep essentially cruol. It Iiiih aimed above nil other things t' pile up hundreds of millions of wealth nml It him crushed every com petitor morcllossly ami him ridden over ovory obstacle ruthlessly. It luw disregarded Ihwh mid the rights til men and has pursued ItH own way tlotorntlnodly. Selfishness and cruolty never In splro anything but animosity and fenr, so It Is not strange tlint tho peoplo havo been more than willing to damn the Standard Oil company for overythlng nml praise t for none of ItH great services for mankind. Motives count most with tho people, after all, and wrong motives never -won praise, no matter what Inciden tal good they brought about. Hlg, rich, poworful though 'it U tho Standard Oil company Is, after all, h pathetic sort of tlgiiro as It com plains in the highest court of the land that the people damn It for every tliliig and praise it for nothing. The Incident gives emphasis to the fact that, after all, the heat and tlncit things of the world Mining from utiRplflft'iiicHfi and service for others.

Tl'tero will not no iis auiwnrs in n single year ngnln until 1922, eleven yenrs hence This number' of Sundnys uvmally occurs ovcry six years, leap year nd dlng ono noro dny. Each year mninl ly begins ua tho day which follows tho clay In tho calerrrfnr week upon which tho preceding year began. Leup' yenr, adding one more dny, makes the following- year skin a day. Tho, last year In whlcfi there wore' 53 Sundays was 190fi. Preceding it were 1S00, 1S03 nml T(?S2. Often leap year begins-on Sntuniny and the following yonr thon start's on Mon day, owing to tire extra diry.

Onfj- IViihIIiIo Way to Save Standing Timlin. "What Orogon needs Is not so inucli tho plnutlng or settluu; out of now trees na the presorvntfou of what forests alio now hns." Tills la tho wny J. D. Wolcli, of tho Orogon Timber & Henlty company, expressed himself on tho conservation' question rcccntry. Mr. Wolcli said thw best way to prcsorvo tlnilivr from forest Ares was to sot Ilro1 to tho under brush tircry year or every other year. f'Thls onght to bo cfbnu lu May or early lir June," ho salifl "as tho woods nro not so dry thon; nnd' tliure Is no danger of sotting ttio trees afire. "Tliure Is no reason- why wo sllould contlnuvj to havo disastrous forest llros such ns wo had" litst year;"' ho icontlnufd. "If tho nudbrliruull is tired ovory other year- they will" be impossible. "Tho worst tiling tliu" govornment forest rangers can do is to prevent your uftor yonr tho netting of 'fires In the' rmber. When Clio dead cones and plno ami flr neeiflus havo accu mulntctf for olglit or tun years; a match cannot bo dropped on tho ground without setting tiro, to tho dried out mass. The llVuuca will ..ltoot high, and carry nil IWoro them, so tlint ft Is not safe fur a mnn to lio In the forest. ToocI for Flnmex Itcmoviir. "I have tried this thing out In my own timber nbout eight miles aortll- west of Wlllninluu. During the big fire fust year whluh Inirned o-er tho Mount llebo district 1 sent threo wagon loads of men ip to my tim ber tojluht the tire. Hut they didn't liure to do anything, as the lire went out as soon as It vaino to my timber. The only reason for It wiih that 1 hud burned my underbrush out two years before, so that there nas 110 food for the tlamoe. "There are plenty of men to take care of tho forest reserve If they would only take care of them right SIxty-nve per cent of the timber laud 011 the west slope of the Cnu eudc mountain, and from there to the ocean will become re-fore-ted In spite of ull we could do to prevent It because It Is too rough and moun tainous for uny other nurp-is .

There may be less , discomfort from kitchen fires, to be sure, but the electric flat iron has many other advantages than saving heat. They save drudgery. They save footsteps between ironing board and stove. They never need changing. They are always clean and uniformly hot ready at your elbow. Thousands of Women use them who prefer to iron little things themselves in Y their own room, or elsewhere, on short notice. An clec- fipgi ' trie iron once tried is never afterward dispensed with.
