will be met at each station by author
ized inspectors, lheir temperatures
will be taken. If the temperature be
above normal, or if any other indica
tion of the dread malady is observed,
the child be placed under strict
quarantine.

of Commissioners of Portland will be
asked to enact at once an emergency
ordinance providing for assistance in
the local enforcement ot the regulations.
The text of the order issued by the
State Board of Health, and which has
been sent broadcast to very municipal
health officer, county health officer,
and county jugdo in Uregon, is as iol-

Virtue In It, Although Many Women
May Say "Nay"
(Indianapolis News)
There is virtue in a corn cob pipe.
Many women will deny this. Some
who have endured this herculean odor
for the sake of the quieting effect it
seemed to exert over a husband who
is given to occasional manifestations
of ill temper, will declare that while it
may be virtuous at times, it is never
more virtuous than when reposing in
an airtight fruit jnr on the cellar
stairs.
Nevertheless, the corn cob pipe is
not a thing to be sneezed at. It is a
democratic institution. One evidence
of the fact that this country is not so
democratic as foreigners believe, is
that according to the code of an Amer-1
ican gentleman, the corn cob pipe must
not be smoked while wearing a silk
hat. But some men find difficulty in
adapting themselves to the "Missouri
meerschaum." They contend that the
first puff from a new cob is lik'?
a breath from the nether regions. This
aversion arises fr-m the circumstance
that, like a sponge, a new cob pipe
should bo dipped in water before it is
used. After the first pipeful of to
bacco has been smoked, it will be
found that a liberal coat of ashes ha
atlnched itself to the walls of the pipe,
rendering it thereafter much less like-
