The Mind During Sleep. - '
"During sleep." 'says on authority on
mental subjects, "the workings of the
ts!s3 sr? Mlr mi control, and yet .It
seems to have a wonderful faculty ot
building up and arrunjrlng scenes and
Incidents. I renieruU-r once having' a
vivid dream of Kuin into a house the
furniture and Inmates of which be
longed to the middle ages'. So clear
was the dream that I bad no diffi
culty in recalling It. and then as I
went over each detail of dress, armor.
Jewelry, ornaments and other objects
seen in my vision I realized that every
thing 1 bad beheld was historically
accurate that is to say,' that probably
In a fraction of a second my mind had
conjured up a scene to construct
which, with the same faithfulness to
detail, while awake would have taken
me several hours."

era each climbed on the big hill for
one or more innings yesterday even
ing In the twilight game with Union
and though La Grande had a patched-
up aggregation, she was able to bat
out .victory In the last Inning. Union
got a good, lead early by touching up
pitchers occasionally, but the locals
soon" drew near the leaders and In
the seventh 'and last innings, passed
Union with 3everal well-placed hits
The crowd was small, but thorough
ly enjoyed tne contest for it was
somewhat of a burlesque from both
sides, and the two teams had jolly
; good times, as well as the fans. A new
Stoddard, a' younger brother of Merril
Stoddard, ,was In right field, Hollister
was In center, Bradley In left field,
Shanks at short, Proe at third and
Pidcock at first, and Childers on the
mound when the game broke up with
a loud ra-ta-ta-ta from the locals' wil
lows. . .'-;'.

HE DOESN'T COUNT.
HOTHKH has her die8ea
Tailor made with care.
Quite a bit it mailer
What Shu Iihb to wear.
Though Khe may have plenty,
Always needs a few
When It comes to rather, , ,- .
Anything will do.
Mother has her dresses
Hanging In a row.
Filling every closet
So they overflow.
Dresser drawers are brimming,
Trunks are full to boot.
How Is It with father T
Uttle old one suit. '
When It cornea to prices
Mother doesn't mind
Handing out the money
Like a person blind.
Father takes a ten spot.
Goes about the town
Looking through his whiskers
For a hand-me-down.
When they go a-walklng
Mother, fat and fair.
Makes a great Impression.
How the neighbors starel
Father lust beside her
As a howling swell
In his modest raiment
Looks about as well.
Fortunate.

Saving Time or Time Tables.
To must people, especially when they
are on tbe road, time Is money, but
time tables are not convertible into
cash.. , In the pages of "Through Sat
age Europe" Harry le winut gives m
curious anA amusing experience' ou a
Russian railway Home years ago,. The
patience of tbe Russians is in marked
contrast wltb the Impatience of Amer
ican traveler.'. All Russians have a
rooted antipathy to fast railway travel.
If one may Jinlne rrom an Incident
which occurred some years ago when
I was traiclllng across tbe Caucasus
from Batoum lo Baku. We bad
reached a tunnel, at the entrance of
which the train waited for at least
twenty minute.
"There Is something wrong." I re
marked to a fellow passoncer.
"Ob. no," be replied: "we are only
making up the time. This tunnel was
recently made to avoid a . long bend
round a range of bills, and as It now
cuts off several miles a abort delay la
necessary so as to fit In wltb tbe sched
uled time." ' ,
"But surely we should save time by
going on." 1 urged.
"Perhaps so," said my friend. "But
then, you see, they would have to alter
all the time tables."
The Use of Condiments.' v
In an article on the use of condi
ments the London Lancet, tbe fore
most British medical publication, says:
"Tbe classic experiments of Pawlow
uuv uW..t;Tr. Jrrv'T"T wi
of, the condiments In diet, how It Is
tbey Improve appetite and Increase di
gestive power. yMusi'ard. pepper and
salt. used, of ; course, ; tn . sensible
amounts, assist the appetite.;, give a
test to food and partly by reflex action
as well as local action stimulate tbe
flow of digestive Juices and Insure
healthy nsslnillatlon. Even vinegar Is
known to have a softening effect on
tough fibers, and hence Irs use Is Justi
fied In so many Instances." . -
The English Pheasant
It Is claimed that the pheasant of
tbe English preserves can trace Its ped
igree directly to tbe brilliant bird ot
the same species In Japan. About tbe
middle of the nineteenth century a
few live pheasants were brought from
Japan and crossed with the common
species. Tbe result of this was. It Is
said, that a new race of birds was In
troduced, and the beautiful pheasant,
wltb Its iridescent plumage, was pro
duced and naturalized as an English
bird.- ' - '.-"?: :.
