A small and simple experiment can be made by any reader which will go far to convince him or her what a good thing it is we have sunlight, which en ables our eyes to take advantage of the beautiful hues of nature. Make a room quite dark and then burn some car bonnte of soda in the flame of a buu sen gas burner. It will burn with an orange yellow light sufficiently strong to illuminate everything ill the room but you will realize with a sudden shock that, bright though the light is all distinctions of color have vanished Only light mid shade remain. A crim son carnation, a blue violet, a red ta bleclotli, a yellow blind—all look gray or black or white. The faces of those present look positively repulsive, for all natural color has disappeared. No other experiment will so well convince those who have witnessed It how great a loss would be that of our sense for color. The finished clothes will be delivered when you gay the word and prices will be gen- uinely economical. > I j !

There used to be an old German counterfeiter ill this country who was a veritable wonder with the brush and pen. Tills man literally painted pic tures of twenty dollar notes which were works of art. He used no tools except his pens mid brushes, and it took him a week to do the portrait of a banknote. He figured that Ills handl cap was worth about $3 a day and worked under the idea that the world production of each kind of wood pulp owed him a fair living and should not and the average value per ton at the object ff his talent led him toward portrait painting, with twenty dollar mill will also be given. bills for models.

I Three feet of Snow at Ashland Ashland, Feb. 26 —Almost three feet of snow has fallen in Ashland since last Monday, an unprecedented snowfall for this season here. According to Co-op erative Obrevec Liuis D>Jge, 33 J^ in ches haJ fallen up to this m >rning, and it has been snowing intermittenly all day. This much snow is equal to three and a half inches of rain and is of great benefit. Owing to the fact that the thermom eter has drooped to freezing only for two short periods in the week, the snow has melted fast and only about a foot I li ;s on the ground. The steady melt ing allows the earth to get the full ben efit of the moisture and the snow is worth probably twice the amount of riio. The power lines have given some lit tle trouble, but Ashland has not been t 'tally without lights owing to the fact that the citv is supplied by the muni cipal plant as well as the Fall creek and Prospect plants of the Oregon- j California company. —Tidings
