liland that the contract will be "off
with Mr. Small's retirement from

"No," he said. "I'm not afraid of
buizards. but at first I thought the
blame thing was a stork."
In calling the children together foi
the photograph, Uland simply cupped
his hands and in a stentorian voici
called: "Children." Itesults were
liumedinle. Children appeared from
every direction. Some of ihe "child

whooping cough." The llluud gro
eery bills equivalent to about t!5() a

night computing the cost of keeping
his family comfortable, but that the
figures reached such alarming pro
portions be gave up the Job.

Craottd to tht Mmory of JapapM
Maid, But Ita Precis Idea
Hardly Apparent,
One of the pretty ahrtnea of Japan
la baited oa the Btory of a beautiful
girl, and to this day occidental can
not figure out If the Bhrtne wan to
perpetuate a tragedy or an honor. The
story Is that Yuinatoduke, one of the
greatest warriors In the history of the
country, halted for a u If lit at tlie
vl II aire of Shlmodalra. He was. weuiy
of battle and strife, and sent out word
to the village that he wished to hv
entertained by the preltlent girl there.
Kemar-hlya was selected, npd it la told
how she spent the evening Finding
and dum-ltig for the warrior. He went
on his masterful way the next morning
leaving the little maiden to mourn hi
pas-dug. and to give birth to his child
In due time.
Now, the child died, as did IN moth
er, and the village erected the Khrlue.
and every few years It la rebuilt and
made more beautiful. Hut what no
occidental can discover la wheVher the
shrine was built to remind the citizens
of the militarism of the old days that
trod with relentlea.1 heels on begtfnr
and wealthy alike, and thus to pay
tribute to a tragedy, or whether It
was built to show that the great war
rior honored Ihe humble village by
taking one of Its membership Into his
arms.
DIDN'T GET CHIEF'S MEANING
Sailor Misunderstood, but After All,
Kangaroo Is as Good a Name
as Any Other.
The Kangaroo received Its nnme
through the failure of white men to
uiiderMtsnd Ihe language of the Aus
trullnii bushinen. Captain Cook, dis
coverer of AiiHtrulln, giizing stiorewnrd
one diiy, saw a group of unlives nbiiiil
what seemed to be a most peculiar
nntmnl. He sent a group of men
sshore to get It, and was still more
nmii7.ed when told of Its shape. Its
hublt of carrying Its young In a ourh
nnil Its remarkable leaping ability, lie
wanted the natives' mime for the spec
imen Hint he Intended to take hack to
Knglsnd.
"What's the mime of that lienslle?"
demanded an Kngllsh tur of the na
tives' chief.
"Ksn ga roo," returned the native.
"Kangaroo, eh?" repeated the sallor
nsn, and, sntistled, relurncd to his
-i) 1 til In. The fact Is, however, that
'he words spoken by the chief are
merely a phrase meaning "I, or we.
lon't know."
Taking Cars of Indoor Plants.
To make ferns grow rapidly Indoors
md look fresh and green, chop a few
oysters fine and mix with the soil nnil
hen water well. This may be done
very fortnight. Wnsh the leave of
ironr rubber plant with n cloth wet
with olive oil. This nourishes the
plant and keeps the leaves dark green
ind velvety. Add a few drops of niu
molilil to a quart of lukewarm water
when you water house plants. The
hemlcnl acts as n tonic nnil fertilizer
mil makes the foliage fresher. And
e careful, when real winter winther
"nines, not to water your plants with
water too cold. Water running from
s faucet In January Is fur too cold
for tender plants. Add enough hot
water to miike the drink you give your
"hints lukewarm ns rainwater always

Mury Itelinett, a daughter of the esrl

Outrage.
In Denver they tell a story of a new
ly rich family that became discon
tented with the services of their old
physician, despite that fact that for
many years- he had kept all of them
In excellent health.
"So you have decided to get n new
doetor," snld a caller to the liuly of
Ihe house, who had confided lu her
friend.
"1 certainly have." snld the other.
"The Idea of Ids prescribing tlms
ten and mustard plasters for people as
rich as we an!"
"Anyone who wouldn't say a good
word for a medicine that had done
for them what Tanlac has fop me
would be ungrateful," said Cuslof
Nelson, a farmer, who lives at Oer
iiude, Wash., McNeil Island, twenty
miles from Tucoma.
"For Ihe past ten years I suffered
wllh rheumatism in my left hip and
right arm all the time, and at times
in different parts of my body. My
hip pained me so I could hardly
wulk and my arm would very often
hurt so badly I could not raise my
hand to my head. The pains in my
liack were so bad 1 could scarcely
bend over, my kidneys bothered me a
greut deal also, and 1 wuld have the
worst sort of dizzy spells. I could get
hut little sleep at nights, my appe
tite was very poor, nnd I had become
so weak and run down I could not do
any heavy work ut all.
1 saw so much good aid about
Tanluc In the newspapers 1 dtci.l.d
to try it. and It was only a slum
while before I began to gam In
weight and sln ngih and my appetlle
Impioved wonderfully. Now I can
eut anything I want nnd everything
agrees wilh lue. The rheumatism is
gone and I can get about all righi
and do hard work with the gtvaie.i
ease again. I never have those pains
in my back any more nor those dizzy
spells and cun sleep nil night long us
peaceful as a child. In fact. I feel
just tine all the limn nnd I owe II
all lo Tanlac."
Tanlac Is sold In Hoseburg by W.
