Season Has Seen Many Killed, But Birds Are Well Scattered Over the Valley. After today China pheasants are safe for another . year. While the game birds have been killed in numer ous quantities this season, hunters found that it was necessary to get out I and hunt them with care and pains for they were anything but bunched. Even as far away as Indian vaney birds were seen during the 10 days set aside to kill thorn in. Hunters should again bear m mind that the season in Union county on Chinks closes today and not the loth as is the case in Western Oregon. Welsh's Home Breeds Scrappers. London. Sent. 22. (By Mail.) The scrappingest, swattingest part in the world that is the boast of the Rhond- da valley in the coal fields of Wles. The world is quite a chunk of terri tory but the valley is ready to back up the .boast with . grimy-toil-hardened fists. Saturday night in the public bars the matches are made and all Rhondda valley's male population turns out in. the dawn of Sunday to battle or watch in the hills -that cup the valley. Every week-end from New Years' to Christmas ana on tnrougn the holidays the program goes on This is about how it happens Bill Wil liams ambles down to tho pub for his Saturday evening s evening after a hard week's work and a pretty good sunner at homo. He is ct peace with the world and inclined to keep it, but only on certain terms. Down- the bar is Floyd Jenkins. He is a lot hko Bill; has worked hard all week, just tucked in a satisfactory supper and is peaceable on the- same conditions. iBill surrounds a covey of flowing Deafness Cannot Be Cured By local application!, as thoy cannot riac'n tho diseased portion of tb' ear. Then- 1. only one way to euro deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is unused by an Innamed condition of the mu cous llniiiK of the Eustachian Tube. When hi tube is inllamed you have a rumbling mund or imperfect hearing, and when It Is entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless tho Inflammation can be tukeu out and this tube restored to Its normal condi tion, hearing will bo destroyed forever; nine enses out of .ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing but an inflamed condition of tho mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any jane of Denfness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo. Ohio.

Of course he can't stand by and hear his firmest convictions run into the ground, so he wallops iBill on the nose. Friends intervene and the belligerents draw on liberal night-caps before winding their way home. The same incident has been repeated in perhaps a score of places. Sunday morning they meet and fight to a knockout out in tho open, what ever the weather, with no ropes, no gloves and only the grass for their mat. If Bill wins he is undoubtedly right about conscription or whatevor it was he was expounding. Jimmy Wilde, the knockout champion, came from the Rhondda valley and learned his fighting up in the hills. The min ers are proud of Jimmy ana oacK mm to the limit. He, in turn has done his part by slumberizing a lot of good fighters from flyweights to feathers. Yes, Freddie Welsh comes, from Rhondda, too,' but the miners only mumble the fact when they mention it at all. Freddie is popular in his old home town with the inverse popluar ity of a German butcher. ... i . Chile's High Birth and Death Rate. If due attention were given to the most ordinary sanitary principles and hygiene the death rate in the country would be extremely low in comparison with that of most countries in feoutu America. In physique, the Chileans are the most sturdy race on the con tinent. Living by the seashore or moKtlv in the ouen air in the rural dis tricts, a fine, hardy manhood has been developed. The highest aeatn rate is in the towns and cities, where dwell ing houses lack the most elementary appliances of sanitation. Smallpox and typhoid are very prevalent, and some years fearful epidemics break out. Pneumonia and tuberculosis are also prevalent. But Chile's high death rate is mainly accounted for by the Hivv infantile mortality from con tagious diseases. The birth record of Chile is one of the highest in the world, bht the mean rate of increase in population by excess of births over deaths reduces it to one of the lowest in the world. Thus one of the most healthful countries in the world re duces its increase to a minimum through ignorance, carelessness in the treatment of children, ana the ibaa sanitary conditions in the dwellings of the working classes. A great and beneficent work can be done tnrougn nvflncplipnl missions in Chile iby the appointment of a well-trained staff of deaconesses, wilii a iiiu ji.nicui.ai y knowledge of sanitation. A work like this would open a door for the Gospel. The Christian Herald. Half Section at Helix Sold.
