Realizing what dire disaster had overtaken her, Dora, with her usual presence ot ir.ind, recited a half eolyum of Prune Pickin's which gassed her attackers and gavs her ample opportunity to escape.

One day he became angry and going down to the basement stood before the furnace and exclaimed : "Not another lump of coal will you get un til you give me more heat." The poor fellow froze to death. Here in is a lesson for advertisers. Some man puts a single advertise ment in the paper ana if it doesn't bring the results that he ex pects ho says: "I won't advertise again until the other ad brings results." So the poor fellow freezes to death. For further proof of this look up statistics and compare the figures of failures among advertisers, with the f igyres of failures of non-advertisers those who freeze to deafli. o Kvery man and woman entitled to vote should mark a ballot tomorrow.

Many chiefs hara built their sepulchres, to be certain or a comfortable and becoming resting place. ' w hen a Samoan chief desires to review his funeral rites, he' an nounces his intention to his family. He first selects and appoints his successor in title, and assures him self that after his death there will be no opposition to the new chiet from the members of the family. Preparations for the death cere monies are then made. The retlr-IB ing chief goes through a figurative S death, looking on at the tribal V mourning and feasting. l A few years ago a leading orator, m named Magea decided it wua time to die, and attended a rehearsal of his if. funeral.

' .sV.A k i - Usf a II W , - - I I As the citizens of Roseburg are to vole on a measure at the primary election tomorrow which ia of vital Importance to this city, the members of the Itoseburg fire department wish to take this means of explaining to the voters what their votes will mean, as the title on the ballot is very misleading. When you arc handed ' tho jcity bal lot you will read: "Shall the charter of the city of Koseburg bo amended to authorize the Common Council toi purchase a fire truck and fire fighting equipment and to Issue ll.50U.U0 of six percent bonds to provide .funds therefor, and to levy a inx to pay said bonds and the interest thereon. Vote "Yes" or "No." 500 Yes. 001 No. while this title was placed on the ballot by the city attorney, this is not (he question to be voted upon at all. The bunds already have bufcn voted for the purchase of fire equip ment and you are not being asked to again vote for them or to kill them by your vote. Here is the way your vote will, cour.i at the election: If you vote "501 No" you are vot ing to sustain the original ordinance voted by the people last November years back, and be alleged in u tide that after one year's assnd on the basis of the cruise figiira assessor of the county cut uidiii tlons 15 per cent, for the fcentlt the timber owners. In the bs the News-Review of May Sth r. was an editorial attacking Sr. M ester, the basis of said attack A the article above referred to.
