A i Ullli YOIIDH PREACHER Considerable interest has been felt in Chicago concerning the case of Joseph Robert Roycraft the remarkable child preacher, who has lately been addressing Gospel meetings In that city, at the Moody Institute . and elsewhere. Joseph was born in Chicago in 1897, and is now in his ninth year. He is small in stature for his years. His mother says of him: "He could read the Bihle on or before his third birthday. Since he was two and a half years old, he has never missed one day without inviting mora than ' one person, either by tract or personal appeal to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as their Saviour. "In June, 1900, he declared1 that God called him to preach. On that morning, after family worship, he climbed up on a chair and said, 'Jesus has called me to preach His Word,' and repeated Heb. 13: today and forever,' and other scripture verses, prayed, sang and held what he called 'a regular service.'. He spoke so earnestly and with such power, his par ents could only weep their gratitude as they recognized that God had truly spok en to him. and through his baby lips to them. And since that day he has never gone to bed or would go to sleep at night without speaking or 'preaching' the" Word of God somewhere, either indoors or in the open air. "The Child Preacher reaches many persons and has many opportunities and privileges of giving the Gospel not usually given to older persons. He is called upqn to speak in the homes, and has more in quiries about the Bible and the way o life from Jews and Roman Catholics than any other class of people. He is allowed to give out tracts regularly and speak' to people in the waiting-rooms of several railroad depots; also on railroad and street cars, etc. "He has read the entire New Testa ment on his knees, and the greater part of the Old Testament several times. Joseph likes to romp and play like any child ol his age. But he does love and delight to read his Bible, 'talk to God' and 'preach' above all else. The greatest desire and joy of his life is that Jesus will soon come," Elder J. M. Hitchcock, of the Moody In stitute, Chicago, writes of Joseph as fol lows: 'I saw and heard him with Dr. Siddall an old Oberline schoolmate. We were. like scores of others, attracted through curiosity. We found nothing sensational or spectacular about . the service. The lad, physically and psychologically, is a twentieth century phenomenon. His se lections of Scripture passages were ap propriate, and were read with intelligence His prayers were painted, devout and fervid. His solos were simple, ostenta- tious i and effective. His exhortations were from an overflowing child's heart. and the results seemed to justify the efforts of the evening, fn response to an appeal by Mr. Jacoby, from a dozen to twenty ro9e for prayer, and on further so licitation came forward to the inquirer's bench. During the entire evening Joseph did not say a foolish or silly thing. To say that this child is a great preacher, or that he is specially gifted, would be miS' leading. He seems to know the funda mentals of the Christian faith, and to be endued with a passion for souls. He makes no efforts to impute the evangelist He retains to a remarkable degree his in' Cant features and baby articulation. His mannerisms are those of innocent child nood." " During the past summer the Humane Society, holding that the child's education was being neglected, reported the case to the Board of Education. The Board sent for him to call at the.r office. He and his mother called. The Board asked him to read a passage of Scripture. The read ing was such a surpr.se that they decided he had committed it to memory; so, taking the Bible from the child gain, they turned to another passagu, with the same result Then a newspaper was obtained and a selection made, with the same re sult The examination proved very satis factory. Then Joseph asked each member of the Board if he was saved. ' Am I saved r said cne; "what do you mean'" Then Joseph asked. "Do yuu love the. Lord Jesus?' and told them tue way of saiva ton, asking them to become Cur, stuns. On Monday evening! Joseph has been conducting serv.cnt at the Star of rioie Mission on Desp.aines Street, and on Tuesday evenings in the B. Je Mission, on West Madison Street, besides many stroet meetings. He has bedii doing this work for the past two years. At tna close of his part of the service in the Missions, he does "personal work ' am jng the audienc. He is probably the smallest and youngest child in the world doing work for the salvation of souls. , WING ROOM OPENED The Blue Mountain Hotel has opened its dining room. Rates, $ I and $1.25 a day.

ANNOUNCEMENT TO THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF UNION COUNTY f 1 hereby announce myself - as Candidate for the Republican nom nation for County Judge, subject to the primary nominating election to be held April 20th. - . J. C. Henry. THE 1905 JOKE The joke which has been going about the country ever since 1906 came in has finally- been exploded, so to speak, except possibly 'in the remote regions of the United States. It was to ask everybody if they had seen a, 1 905 silver dollar, and to offer a premium of $500 for it giving the impression that it was very rare. That puts lots of folks on the "qui vive." There was quite an influx of'new subsid iary coin, all bright and shining, with last year's date7""soon after New Year's day, and naturally the unsuspecting, because uninformed, were eagerly scanning their "pile" for the ' dollar of our daddies" brought up to date. It turns out that no silver dollars were coined last year. That's where the joke lay. Its origin is credited to a New York sub-treasury official. VIFWC IF ML HO II VETOPOWER For a farmy who has no machine and asked no favors of the bosses, Dr. With- combe is doing pretty well as a candidate for governor. He seems to be a clean man who ap peals directly to the people, and is not bartering and huckstering off every office to get support The election of such a man would do a great deal for the people of Oregon. ' It would mean a man at the head of our state who would represent the best and cleanest tendencies of our commonwealth. As a farmer he has been a success, owning and operating an unencumbered farm In Washington county, which insures him a living for life whether he gets an office or not. As a scientific man he has made a proud record in his work for the govern ment and for the people . of this state. promoting agriculture and the allied an una! industries. Aa a man among men and a leader among the students of the Agricultural college and in his private life he has been clean and upright setting a good example to the young mon of the whole state. Engaged in educational work himself. it is natural that Dr, Withycombe, the Benton county candidate, skould be friendly to normal schools. In an interview he states that he be lieves Oregon should support normal schools for the proper training of teachers for the public schools, but that the sup port should be prope.'ly limited. - Dr. Withycombe was also asked in the same interview if the friends of normal schools attempted and succeeded by log rolling methods in putting through a bi whether he would interpose a veto. He promptly said, yes. Dr. Withycombe is clear, fearless and positive in any position he takes. He does not whiffle and straddle around like a mule in a mud puddle, but states his position with precision and promptness. It is evident that as a candidate, he is not under the management of any Port land bosses, and no machine, not even the educational machine, has any thumb on Km. It is natural that certain elements s'lould oppose such a man, but the people will love him for the enemies he makes. Salem Journal.

Milk Talk No. I. a a (HEAP MILK OR MILK (HEAP, WHICH? r ymi hnvinc vnoe milk cheap or are you getting cheap milkV l nat is the question which every con sumer should consider before buying. There are five properties contained in milk, viz; ash, or bone material, caseine or curd, butter fat sugar, and water, in proportion of .3 of 1 'fi ash, 5.3 caseine, 4 butterfat 6 sugar. 87 water. Now there are IS solids and 87 water in a 4' milk, that is in milk containing 4 buttnrfat This ratio holds good wheather of a high or low test i. e. if you have a milk testing 6 the other solids will be increased in propor portion. if a b'fa they will decrease in like manner. Now the solids are what is. or what should be consid ered in buying milk, as the water can be had for the pumping. Now let us consider for a moment be fore we buy wheather we are paying a high or low price for these solids. A 3 ' milk contains 9.75 solids and 90.25 water, a 6'(. milk contains 1 6.25 solids and 83.K5;t water. Wow if . a 3 milk is worth $1.50 per quart per month, what should a 6 sell for? Let's see. if we pay $1.60 for milk containing 9.75 solids, at the same price milk containing 16.25 solids should sell for $2.60, or you can to every three quarts of 6 milk add two quarts of water, making 6 quarts of 3 milk, I. e. three quarts of 6 milk is equal to five quarts of 3 milk, at the present price 6 quarts of 3JV milk (id $1.5U$7.60; three quarts of b milk (ti $2.00$6.00, i. a. you are getting the same amount of solids for S6.00 in a 5 -milk that you get in a 3 milk for $7. 60.
