Accompany ing the circulars are copies of the state law enacted in 1907 for the protection of the forests, for the creation of the Forestry board and providing fines for the care less setting of timber fires. The earnestco-operation of allcitizens is asked that the loss from these fires may be minimized It is pointed out in the circu lars that Oregon has 350,000,000 000 feet of standingtimber, worth $475,000,000. If manufactured and sold at present prices, it --would bring $5,000,000,000 into the state for. labor and supplies. XiumDer sales in tnis . state now aggregate $20,000,000 annually, of which $14,000,000 is received by employes who. put it into cal circulation. About 1,000 000,000 feet of this timber is de stroyed by fire in this state an nually, .which if manufactured would bring $13,000,000. On every 1000 feet burned the stum page-owner may lose $2, but the practical education which is be coinmunity loses $8 in wages. ing given in the department of "Timber mearis pay checks, to support all industries; but burn- . ed timber pays no wages," con- tinues the circular.

' Officers of the state board of forestry, through Secretary E. P. Sheldon, of Portland, urge the people of the" state to observe the following rules: Don't toss away burning 'obac- co or matches. Don't make a campfire in leaves, rotten wood or against logs, where it may spread or you can't be sure it is put out. Always clear all inflammable material away from around your fire. Never leave a fire until it is out. Don't burn your slashings in the closed season without a per mit from the fire warden. Don't operate an engine with out a spark-arrester in the clos ed season. Put out any fire you find if you can. 11 you can t, notiry a fire warden or other public offi cer, ortne landowner, itemem- ber that any little fire may be come a big one if let alone. REPORTING PROGRESS. Extraordinary industrial acti vity, coupled with the purpose and spirit of the new develop ment, is reported from all parts of Oregon. The awakening has been slow; but it is here at last. Everyone notes the effects of the new life throughout the state savs the Oregonian. The towns and cities ate tak ing pride in tneir appearance in the improvement ' of their streets, in better architecture for the new buildings, and in substitution for buildings of old form and construction, new modern, tasteful and commod ious plans. It is worth not little to see such towns as Salem and Eugene, Baker City and La Grande at this day, and compare them with the remembered ap pearance of former tims. Corresponding improvement is noted in the agricultural dis tricts. Irrigation is beginning many a fertile district in the semi-arid parts of the state. In other parts clearing of new tracts for cultivation is in pro gress, and better farming gener-, ally. Advantages of under-drain- age are becoming better known. The study of soils brings its contribution to results. Irn provemeut of livestock is becom- Fruit-growing is settling into a scientific system. The timber of Oregon, properly conserved, will forever be a great resource, and transformation of water power into electric power will give the state benefits equal to the labor of millions of hands. The main drawback now is the slowness of railroad exten sion. In these times no consid erable population will go far be yond the reach of , railroad ser vice, and very little real develop ment can come to unoccupied districts till railroads help to op en the way. Oregon has a right to be insistent that the great railway combination that almost wholly controls its territory shall continue its activity and open new sections of the state. We shall get the Tillamook road within a year, but we want the Coos Bay road, and, above all, a road into and through Middle Oregon. , ' THE DIFFERENCE. ' The difference between the Domestic Science and art at OAC and the superficial training of the accepted finishing schools for voung ladies cannot be better illustrated than by the following description of the latter in June iorcea to smne. iot oniy at the institutional receptions, but at meals, at play and even in the classroom, she is watched by a competent critic of social behav ior, and she succeeds, though he falls behind in her real studies, so long as she does not commit the crime of a failure to "make good" socially. "You observe that there may well be a broad chasm between what is taught and what is learn ed. One student of my acquain tance has, after a three years' course, managed to choke down enough, French to translate, if there's a dictionary handy, the ordinary Gallic phrases encount ered in a popular novel : she knows what a menu is trying to say, though, of course, neither she nor anybody else can trans- ate that verbatim. If she would take time to complete it but she never takes time to complete anything she might be able to make a fair copy of a Charles Dana Gibson line drawing. She can recite certain chapters of the Bible by heart, but knows about as much concerning them as the j average actor knows about the ! lines of his part. And as for literature, shejhas acquired the exact date of every great English writer,s birth and death without having any conception of what any of them wrote, and without swerving one hair's breadth from her allegiance to the con temporary marshmallow school of fiction. "One mother was rapurously descanting to me upon her daugh ter's social advantages. "But what," I essayed, "are her intellectual pursuits?' Madam blinked. "Her intel lectual pursuits?" she echoed. "Oh, well she just dotes on mus ic, and she is really a wonderful speller."

The last time she "was home I tried to talk to her; we used to make mud pies together, and, later, she chewed the spit balls that I threw at the teacher in the Fourth Reader; but now lam a Mister to her and she is a mystery to me. Well, we talk ed, or rather she did, and what I received from her was simply a rapid running description of all the season's plays on Broad way. It appears that the school vaca nfton toton it, v ; I wavii LU VUG bUCaiCi 111 , , , a Doay, provided tne drama to be produced is not too serious, and the whole student body go as individuals to Saturday's mat inees. Consequently the girl has 20 photographs of Robert Edeson, each in a different pose on the dressing table, which she used to call a bureau, and knows the private history and matri monial record of all the idols of the stage." Women Who Are Envied. Those attractive women who are love ly in face, form and temner are the envy of many who might be like them, A weak, sickly woman , will be nervous and irritable. Constipation or Kidney poisons show in pimples, blotches, skin eruptions and a wretched complexion. For all such, Electric Bitters work won ders. They regulate Stomach, Liver and Kidneys, purify the blood, give strong nerves, bright eyes, pure breath, smooth, velvety skin, lovely complex ion. Many charming women owe their health and beauty to them. 50c at all druggists. Excursion to Newport.
