Mrs. Poindexter, it appears, has lost a butler, Scnor Prada has lost his job and Mrs. Gnnn has lost her place in the limelight at least temporarily, to the lady from the evergreen slate. -' Mrs. Poindexter brought back with her from Peru a native butler who must have been n jewel from all accounts. Ho buttled so well and with such grace that when ho re signed after a brief term of service from the Poindexter household because he said he was under-paid the lady there- j of was unconsolable. She besought his return, but it was de clined. Thereafter the butler went to buttle for Senor Prada. The lady did not like that. She called up the senor and told him in no uncertain terms that unless he would send her butler homo pronto she would take suitable action. The senor stood fast. In a day or two he received a peremp tory cablegram from his government in Peru to send Mrs. Poindexter's butler to her. Instead of doing so, Senor Prada sent back a cable of resignation from office, saying in part: . ' If to defend Mki IntereKta of n Peruvian cltl.en who liaa been llnpimt'il upon anil exploited cotnttilnles In your eyea H CKtiHUntule aelkni on Die putt or it Kovornmeht, I ihlnk dif ferently, and iih I inn not dlupoHod to obey your urhlirary in Htructlnna.'l roalKn Die office which I hold: Senor Prada told the newspapers and his picture ap peared in many of tliem, along with that of Mrs. Poindexter. Die butler is still buttling for Senor Prada, Washington so ciety has a topic for dog-days talk. Good for Senor Prada ! o - Northwest lumber manufacturers are asking for a 25 per cent ad valorem duty on lumber similar to that which Canada has for her protection. Powerful interests in Wash ington, composed of a few concerns having large timber holdings in Canada, have formed a lobby and are doing their utmost to defoat this worthy move. ..During the next two or three -weeks our congressmen will be battling for a duty on lumber and shingles, which is of vital importance to everyone in the slate, involving as it does the prosperity of our basic industry. While our senators are working on this important matter they should be given the backing of our entire state through resolutions from civic organizations and letters of approval from individuals, for in Washington it is numbers that carry weight on matters of this sort.

Copeland, Citing the Results of Intelligence Tests. liy KOYAL S. COPELAND, JM. I. United States Senator from New York. - Former Oomminitioner ot Health. Xew York Vity. MORE and more we realize that food has a most Important place In determining the state of health. In times past, food has been something merely to appease the appetite. Anything to fill the daily demands of the stomach seemed all that was necessary. The real need of food i? to supply enerpy, to build a healthy framework, strong muscles and red blood. Thera cannot be a healthy brain with out an unfailing supply of good food. One of the most -interesting facts brought to light in recent years Is that low intelligence is often the result of inadequate or poor food. Dr. John Munroe, of Long Island University, nas come to the conclusion that intelligence is not entirely an hereditary possession. Several ears ago Dr. Munroe made sonw interesting intelligence tests on 700 public school children. p -v 1 lie UUII1CS VI 11 1 CM UllHIILII miic iivkvu inR to t"L'rtllin footI "nd cokt'rv standards.

It was found that the student:' who lost points in these tests from vear to vear. were tho.se who came from homes where the food conditions were poor, or below the average. In one experiment, two groups of ten children- were taken from families of fairly high intelligence, llesides the regular meals, milk and eggs were fed twice a day to one group of ten.
