The paper may have given him many complimentary notices, but ma imaginary thrust puts linn on Ins dignity, and he at once entMblishes him self as a critic, but he hasn't enough nerve to go to the editor with his sup posed grievance. Just notice and you will see that the men who are "agin" their homo paer are, as a rulo, men who would not be missed if they would leave the community forever.

The Telegram says: "Those who ought to bo informed say the prospects are good for a full fruit crop next sum mer. Bo (ar, unless possibly in a few localities, tho buds have not been in jured, and the season is now so far ad vanced that extensive damage ia iin proliable. This is encouraging to botli growers and consumers of fruit. While a large and general crop causes low prices, growers in general can endure too great an abundance rather than so universal and extensive a shortage as occurred last year. This latter condi tion renders a few growers exceptionally prosiierous, but does not compensate for tho loss and expense sustained by the majority of growers and all consumers. Oregon is sure of a large fruit crop almost every year and it will rapidly increase in quantity. The problem pre sented to the horticulturists is to find a prollmblo market outside the state for their surplus. This, with prunes and sound, first-class winter apples, prop erly hand led, is easy ; the distant demand is so loud that it reaches io the Oregon orchards; but with some other fruits some efforts will be necessary. The principal requirements, however, are: Sound fruit, honestly and carefully pai'ked, so as to meet the critical de mand of retailers and consumers. When Oregon fruitgrowers act up to this rule, they will receive a very large aggregate sum anuually from abroad for Oregon fruits, and horticulture will become one of our greatest industries.

Court adjourned without day. Effecting School Clerk. Under date of March 1st. Prof. J. II. Ackerman, superintendent of public instruction, has issued a circular letter to the county superintendents through out the state. It is circular letter No. 10, and deals with the salaries of school district clerks, being, to a certain ex tent an explanation of circular letter No. 9, treating on the same subject, and issued by the department several weeks ago. The text of the letter follows : "According to circular letter No. 9, school clerk are not allowed to use any of the common school fund for salaries. The decision was given in order to give you a working oasis to disallow the exorbitant salaries to school clerks which has been tho practice, in some districts, in the past. However, I would Buggest that it might be as well to allow school clerks a nominal sum for their salaries; enough, at least, to cover the ordinary expenses, sucli as postage, stationery, etc., and perhaps a small sum for their services." The Sbouidor-Slapping Fad. A friendly shoulder slap broke a man's neck a few weeks ago in New York City. There is only one worse nuisance in the world than the rib poker, and that is the slioulder-slapper. They have both outlived their useful ness and are tit objects of solicitude for the Society for Doing Without Some People. The fiend who takes care una ware on a crowded pavement with a facetious bat on the shoulder blade when you are meditating on the ideal and beautiful, and expects you to twist your shaken vertebrae into a genial nod and greet him with a happy,, flatulent smile, possesses an heroic soul that would not recognize the language of conventional remonstrance, lie is not criminal and be is not crazy; he is simply an idiot. The lunatic asylums and the jails are overworked, but the foolkiller doesn't half know his business. We have saved many doctor bills since we began using Chamberlain's Cough Betnedy in our home. We keep a bot tle 0en all the time and whenever any of my family or myself begin to catch cold we begin to use the Cough Remedy and as a result we never have to send for a doctor and incur a large doctor bill, for Chamberlain's Cough Kemedy never fails to cure. It ia certainly a medicine of great merit and worth. 1). S. Meab klk, General Merchant and Farmer, Mattie, Bedford county, Pa. For sale at the St. Helens Pharmacy.
