What can't be cured should be In-' aured. When some folks say they want a chance they mean they want an ad vantage. 1'ra. e talk in the air, but the sir Is of tbe hottest variety. Satan seldom offers suggestions to tbe uinn whose nose la continually against the grindstone. A fireproof munition factory, U seems, 1.4 still beyond the skill of scl euce and invention. TJi trouble with most of as Is that the fear of not accomplishing anything keeje us from trying The enumeration that shows 8.000 Americans now In I'aris will surprise a lot of people In this country. Moving pictures cau teach history no doubt, but can't do a thing toward prtHrly locating "woe" aud "whom." There are people who wouldn't ad mit that they were happy if happiness were to break out all over them, like tbe measles Holland Is still maintaining Its neu trality successfully. That may be on account of tbe modern disinclination to tUt a :alnst wtuduitlls. Tuan Shlh Kal doesnt want to be compared to Julius Caesar. And no doubt Caesar would object to being called the Yuan Sltib Kal of Rome. One d.-es not use tbe word multimil lionaire any more One merely as serfs that the man of wealth could carry on the war for an hour or a da or even for a week, according to hi Editorial The medical department of The Pill Box has received the following important query: "I have a lump on my off jaw as large as a quart bucket. I look like a bull with the lump jaw, only worse. What is it and how can I get rid of it?" Hav ing no medical department, the matter was referred to the entire editorial staff which by reason of its wisdom is able to quickly sub mit the following diagnosis: You either have mumps or an ulcerated tooth. If it is mumps don't worry and if the other, flag a dentist and dare him to do his worse. He will sharpen his best auger, attach ten horse of power, pry open your mouth and commence boring. Eventually he will strike bottom. If the artesian flow that follows does not bring all the liquid to the sur face, he will put on a pair of rubber boots and bail out the remainder. Then after a bale of medicated cot ton has been pounded in with a pile driver, j'ou are cured. 1916 and Scowers. A new baby has arrived in Grand Ronde, a stout little boy has been rwnfiypdr bis name is 1916. He has brought with him a beautiful 'cover of white snow, to the blessing of the fall sown grain and a joy to the young and old by taking rides in the long stored sleighs. It has been over seven years since we have such a fine winter, the snow is about 8 inches on the level. A good oppor tunity for hauling wood. Say, good readers, has any of your calves the scowers? The writer lost one for not knowing how to cure it. Mr. Fox, of Meda, gave us a receipt for the cure. Make a strong tea from the roots of the Salile, it will check the-scowers quick, then give a dose of salts. He says that will save the calf. ---Grande Ronde News in Mc Minnville, Ore., News-Reporter.
