And yt in research of all kinds we have been benefitted; the same may be said of inventions. Ex plorations, too, have proved of untold value in more ways than one. Almost from a time beyond knowledge, if not quite so, men have wanted wings that they miyht fly through space. Some men still hope for them, but not for the purpose of navigation. Just so with regard to other things. This desire to fly seem ed an impossibility and for years baffled the greatest minds, how ever, it led to the flying machine of today. On line with this was the idea of exploring at the north poie and many lives were sacrificed and ship after ship lost in this undertaking. It seemed a work that could benefit no one. But there is the mystery of the north pole, the conditions there being merely a matter 01 conjecture. Perhaps the greatest of all quer ies regarding the condition at the north pole is regarding what would happen to the needle of a compass if the exact pole were located. Here is yet a riddle. Amundsen, the daring Nor wegian explorer and navigator, who not long ago spent two years in the arctic regions, gives it a-; his opinion that the mag netic pole shifts or varies, in fact, is not settled. Amundsen is a scientist and hid trip is of woron to the world. He made a successful trip through what is known as the northwest passage and destroys the long-cherished dreams of. nuvigators by the de claration that the route is so diffi cult as to render it impractica ble. Thus we find his work of worth in adding to our know ledge and in the settlement of a problem of many years stand ing. KNOWS LirriE LOVE. The natural supposition would b ? that an educational institu tion's duty would be first of all to disseminate knowledge. May b-i this was the idea years ago, but there seems at present to be many notable exceptions, among which the University of Chicago shines with exceptional bril liancy. This university ssems to po-sess, to have a faculty for possessing, a galaxy of wild ideaed men who are to blaze the path to realms of wisdom for all mankind . Professor Charles R. Hender son of this institution gives to the world an article on "Court- ship," not only as she is, but as she should be. Poor fool! That he got over his depth in the knotty problem of sticky sweet ness need not be said- The chances are that he's in love and n )t accountable tor a smgia stut ter or his article, tie proposes something like a national school of love-making and courtship. This is already a world wide s:hool and impossible of confin ing to an institution placed pos sibly under the instruction of Professor Henderson. It is doubtful if the learned gentleman really knows what love is or few, if any other men, for that matter. It is pre sumed that women may. Those who compile our dictionaries and keep them up to date, seem woe fully at sea in this question, as we find no less than twenty seven definitions of "love" in one dictionary and there axs c.i TucMlay- and in;t TE PrEi:sHino Com'-- '8'ri - trice of tht ' vfM'r Hue 'een. Bin' ' other dictionaries. Taken altogether we firmly be lieve that Professor Henderson is wasting his time and talents by writing articles on "Court ship." .Par better service to mankind-would it e.if he de--voted some of his leisure hours to articles on cooking and baby- tending. ; ;" .; For Prune Growers. The prune groweisof Beaton county will be interested in the following, which is self explan atory; " . :fi "Resolved, By the Mar?on County Horticultural Society, that the present method of grad ing prunes is arbitrary and is th cause of constant loss to the growers. 'Resolved, That the growers of Marion and Polk counties fa vor a change by which the two largest of any season's output (as at present graded) be known as first, of fancy sizes; the succeed ing two sizes as second, or med ium, and the sm viler s ze as third grade, or small prunes. "That copies ot these resolu tions be given the dailv and agricultural papers of Oregon and Caiifornta, that a copv of cue above be presented to the managers of , the Oregon packing houses, asking tbem for their co-operation to bang about the desired results, and that they be asked to enlist the aid of the California growers and packers in this movement. Praises Country Editors. . William Jennings Bryan ad dressing the Minnesota Editorial association, among other things said: "I am interested in a weekly newspaper and I believe the most of you are interested in weekly papers. We have made a gov ernor in this state of a newspaper man, an editor or a county paper. and the success that has attend ed this experiment, it seems to ne, ought to give a weekly newspaper prestige in this coun -.ry for a century to come. Ion' t see how anybody but veekly newpaper man can run tor a high office. After the sue oe;s ot your experiment in this slate, ii only shows what splen .lid teaching the newspaper office. tnat :s tne country newspaper nfrlce, is for public servants, and it also shows how near the coun try weekly is to the people and how ctose is the sympathy be twetn the newsoaprr aud masses of the country."

Graham & Wells Faith in Hyotnei is so Strong They Sell it Under Guarantee. Graham & We' Is back up their faith in Hyomei as a care for catarrh and bronchial troubles with a positive guar antee that if it does not cure the money will be refunded. Hyomei is based on nature's way of caring catarrh. It contains concentrated healing oils and gums of the pine woods, prepared in such form that they can be brought right into your home, with the same results as though you lived out of doors in the Adirondacks, and in this way you can be cured of oa'arrh and af fections of the nose, throat and lungs while at borne or at work. The complete Hyomei outfit costs but $1 00, extra bottles, if needed, may be obtained for 50 cents. With Hyomei catarrh can be cured pleasantly and eas ily at small expense with no risk of the treatment costing a penny unless it cures.

We consider our showing of these handsome new materials to be the best we ever had and would esteem it A Privilege to Show the Line to You TURKEY GROWING. Wise Hint From WiUet Randall In Farm Journal of Fhiladelpbln. The turkey business is one of the foremost branches of the poultry in dustry, and the prices paid for first class stock this year are better and the demand is greater than for some year3. The problem that confronts the be ginner is that turkeys are hard to raise. 'Tis true there are obstacles to overcome, but such is the case in ali branches of poultry culture. A start can be made with a few birds and the flock increased as means and experience will permit. Secure a trio for a beginning. This is a good time to buy. Do not wait until spring; the chances for good birds are better now than they will be next April. The holiday trade in all the leading cities was large, larger than ever be fore, and it was hard work to get enough birds to supply the demand. In consequence very few birds went into cold storage. some are asking wny high prices prevail more of late than was the cus torn in past years, to wmcn l can give but one reason increased consump tion. In many localities turkeys are not raised so extensively as tney were three or four years ago. Some gave up the work on account of a season's failure. Disease in the flock drove oth ers out of business. Before you sell your stock pick out the best for your own breeding, then get rid of the rest. Don't be like Pe ter Tumbledown. He always gets rid of his choicest fowls and keeps the scrubs for his own breeding. Early Maturity of Rhode Island Beds. March 21, 190G, I hatched ten chick ens, Rhode Island Reds, says a corre sponde: One died March 23. Five of the balance are cockerels and began crowing June 11. One pullet developed leg weakness, and I had her put out of her suffering. Another developed to about four and a half pounds and laid her first egg July 18. The Story of a Medicine.
