At the present time there are 90 grange in the state, the majority of which are in the Willamette valley, oa'y four in Eastern Oregon, two in Umatilla county and two in Sherman county, . ; ' , ' . - Several yean ago there were each organisations ip this county but for various reasons they surrendered their obarten. This was a mistake as has been shown where ever the organiza tions have continued. Among .the reasons why the Grange should be perpetuated as put foiward by the National Grange arn "Because it is the farmer's enly or ganization nationaljn character. . Because it lias stood the test for thirty-two years, and bas never been found wanting in any respeot. Because it has exerted greater in fluence in seouriog state and natiot al Representative French, of Idaho.

Mr Voorbees believes that Granges should be original in La Grande, Summervill, Elgin, Cove and Union and will visit all the above mentioned places and probably others . Oil For the Hands. A certain woman whose bands bad been neglected until they were yellow and blue and gray all colore except flcsb color went to a manicure to have her bands treated. The luuuicuro, who wna a very wise woman, took a bowi of pure oil of sweet almonds ud In) mcrsed the hands of her patient lu thi oil. Keeping then! there for some mln utua, she took them out and genllj massaged them until there was uot a nartlcle of Oil on the surface It It astonishing how much oil can be ab snrhed by tho hands and amazing t( see It aisnppear aimosi at lasi as u i- applied. If this is done patiently aw) Intelligently and ror fifteen minutes m a time the bands will begin to plum) out and the skin to be pretty again The bands should not be washed aft rward, for the oil will surely sink h tf well massaged. To Obtain a Slliu Waist. ' If s nice to be plump, but to be plumr In the wrong place is. misery. French women, though they get quite redun dant, have their redundance located properly owing to the training of their figures" from girlhood. The best Uilni: for a woman to do when she has al lowed her "form to get out of form" Is to regain It by taking gymnastic train ing of some kind, fencing or clubs of dumbbells. In the modern gymnasium there la such an apparatus for the waist two great ropes from tie celling terminate In a pair of padded metal rings, Into which you Blip your arms, and, poising your toes within the cen tral disk on the floor, you swing youi solf round and round in a circle, mak ing your toes the pivot It is splendid for Indigestion, this apparatus, and for one's condition generally as well as ne'e figure. The action comes greatly from the waist, which should be the strongest part of the body and which by no means Implies the thickest. The waist should be firm and In reason slight The Hookah In India. Tbe hookah is smoked ns n refresh ment and sign of fellowship by the natives of India nnd uot merely as a luxury.
