Wheels and Wheelers. .
People who ride bicycles seem to de
rive a great deal of pleasure from so do
ing, and we are glad, they do, bat they
ehoald recollect that there are people
who do not ride bicycles, and that this
class take pleasure in walkingor driving,
and that they, as well as the cyclers,
have rights. Things have- come to a
pass where the cyclists seem to have for
gotten this fact and some of them' think
the earth and all there is on it was made,
constituted and appointed by a divine
Providence for the sole and especial pur
pose of being used for a bicycle track.
We are moved to make these few re
marks by way of caution to our wheel
men and wheelwomen, for at present
they respect no rights of anyone else,
get -four, five or six side by side and
come sweeping down the streets, while
the young fellow with bis best girl out
for a drive haato atop until they see fit
to pasa hire. There is no objection to
bicycles or bicyclists, but they most re
spect other people's rights if they want
their own respected. We confess that it
rites oar temper to have a cycler come
charging at us at a street crossing, jingl
ing his bell for us to get oat of the way,
and not turning bis dodgasted wheel a
fraction of a point of the compass from
the line he has marked out for himself.
These remarks are applied to the gentle
men only, for when a woman gets on a
bike she nor no one else knows where
she will guide the thing to. Pedestrians
and others using the streets or sidewalks
can only pnt their trust in chance and
take the consequences.
Shooting at Granite.
have always borne a good reputation at
Granite, where they have resided for a
number of years. After, the shooting,
excitement ran high and fears were en
tertained that McMahon would, be
lynched, but better counsel prevailed.
Prineville Review.
Chewed by s Bear.
An Indian boy named Mathew, be
longing to the Nez Perse reservation at
Lapwai, was almost killed on Sunday
hv a Cinnamon bear. ' The boy. with a
white man. was out banting chickens
above the Mission, when their dog scared
no a big she bear.' She mad for the
boy,' and though they both emptied
their twenty-twos on herj she almost
chewed the boy to pieces before he could
be rescued from her clutches. The phy
sician at the agency was callecfin to
dress the wounds, which are liable to
result in his death. Walla Walla States

Old Feople.
. Old peoplf who require medicine to
regulate the bowels and kidneys will
find the trae remedy in Electric Bitters?
This medicine does not stimulate and
contains no whisky nor other intoxicant,
but acts as a tonic and alternative. It
acts mildly on the stomach and oowels,
adding strength and giving tone to the
organs, thereby aiding Nature in-the
Derformaoce of the functions. Electric
Bitters is an excellent appetizer and aids
digestion. Old people find it juet exact
ly what they need. Price 50 cents and

MILK A NUTRITIVE.
A Medical Man Who Existed forThir-
ty Days on It. ,
A medical man expresses the belief
that a person could live for any length
of time and take heavy exercise all the
while on no other food than sweet milk,
His conviction is the result of personal
experiment. ,
. lie wanted to establish the fact that
persons convalescing' from sickness
may grow stronger with noother nutri
ment than sweet milk, and that they are
not obliged to take something soiia
to eat, as so many people imagine. He
holds that many a convalescent has
gone into bis gTave as a result of over
taxing his weak stomach by putting
"solid" food into it, and he maintained
that the old belief as to bread being the
first essential of human life is shown
by his experiment to be erroneous. -
His test was to Jive 30 days with only
sweet milk as a. nourishment. . In. the
whole time fee lost syt pounds in weight.
but no strength.- He even attributes
the loss of weight to the warmth of the
weather and to excessive exercise on the
bicycle and the daily manipulation of
16-pound dumbbells and other heavy
weights. He took more exercise than
usual in order to test the thing fairly,
On the iseventh Jay of the experiment
he ran several fart races in a skillful
manner, but was beaten in each race,
On the thirtieth day iie again pitted
himself against the some runner and
get the best of his opponent, which cer
tainly would tend to confirm his state
ment that he lost no strength during
the 30 days test. He drank four pints
of milk daily for the last week. He
thinks a healthy person should take
about five pints of milk daily when no
other food is being taken. His practice
was to drink milk at intervals of two
hours during the day, commencing at
seven o clock in the morning and con
tinurag until ten at night. After that
he would take no more until' the next
morning. St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
VALENTINE KILLED LOVE.
Farmer Disinherits His Daughter
Bccacao of a Comic One.
- James Martin, a well-to-do farmer,
recently died, leaving a will by which he
disinherited his only daughter, the re
suit of a disagreement about a valentine
50 years ago, says a Ballietville (Pa.
special. It was a few days before St,
Valentine's day, 50 years ago, when the
daughter asked her faher for a. new
dress. . He refused to buy it for her,
The girl took her father's refusal much
to heart. On St. Valentine's day Mr.
Martin received a valentine addressed
to him in his daughter's handwriting,
It was a trough caricature, represent
ing a. miser counting and gloating over
his money. He at once took his dough
ter to task for what he considered an in
sult. She denied that she sent the car
toon. There lived in the neighborhood
another farmer who had treated a niece
living with him brutally. . Martin's
daughter said that she and this girl had
purchased each a valentine and that she
(Miss Martin) had bought one entitled
"The Honest Farmer," while the other
girl had purchased the caricature to
send to her harsh uncle. In addressing
the enevelopes the valentines, she said,
became mixed.
Tut in spite of explanations Mr. Mar
tin would not believe his daughter, and
from that day he ncve,r spoke to her.
She soon married and lived on. a farm
adjoining, and, although the old man
was on the most familiar terms with
the husband end children, he never no
ticed her. He died the ether day, leav
ing an estate valued at $45,000.
Uy his will he left his widow $3C,C0O
and to his eon-hi-law the remainder,
provided he survived his wife, the farm
er's- own daughter. If the son-in-law
died'iirst, then the money was to be di
vided among his three children.' To his
daughter Mr. Martin bequeathed "a
package to be found in his truck, tied
with a green ribbon and sealed with
green wax." When this was opened it
was found to be ihc unfortunate valen
tine that had caused the estrangement
of the farmer from his daughter half a
century ago. . Y. Press.
Aerial Travel.
Prof. S. P. Eangley is reported as say
ing in a recent interview, xthat, having
proved both theoretically " and prac
tically that machines can be made to
travel through the air, if he had the
time and money to spend, he believed
he could make one "on a scale such as
would demonstrate to the world that a
large passenger-carrying flying-machine
can be a commercial as well as a
scientific success." Youth's Compan
ion. .
Real Question at Issue. C
He was pressing, but she hesitated.
She had had some experience and was
inclined- to be cautious. .
"You will be mine!" he exclaimed.
"Say you will consent to make me the
happiest of mortals!" .
She thought it sounded a good deai
as if it had been memorized from a love
story, but she let that pasa.
"Can we afford to marry?" she asked.
He looked startled.
"I'm sure I don't know," he answered.
'How is your fia their fixed?" Chicago
