Ho comes Into tho world without being consulted nnd usually quits It against his will. When ho's little tho big girls kiss him when ho Is grown only tho little onet do. If ho's pcor, ho's n bad malinger If ho's rich ho'a dishonest. If ho possesses ability, ho falls to get a chance to show it; If he has nono, he Is pushed Into tho most consplcu ous placos. If ho needs credit, ho can't get It; If ho Is prosperous ovoryono wants to do him n favor. If ho doosn't glvo to charity, ho'a tight-wad; If ho does its for show. If ho Is actively religious, ho's hypocrlto; If ho takes no Interest In religion, ho's a hardened sinner. If he shows affection, he's a soft speel mon; If ho Booms to caro for no ono, ho'a cold-blooded. If ho tries to bo frlondly, ho Is an oasy mark; If ho doesn't ho's stuck up.If he dies young thoro was a groat futuro ahoad of him, It ho lives to an old ago, ho Ins missed his calling. 'What's tho use?" Big Crop of Apples Mrs. D, L. Pago says Hood River Is not so much. She has ono tree In hor lawn that Is in full bearing this year and sho gathered tho crop of apples tho other day and filled ber cellar bins and all the boxes and barrels about thoplaco and then did not have all tho apples In, Wo do not know tho size of her cellar, but If It is as large as tho average, that tree must bo a whopper. Really, though, there Is not tho least doubt but Immenso crops of apples could bo grown here, and just as flue looking as those of Hood Rlvor, If proper care wero taken of them, Tho only advantage Hood River could have In the apple line would bo In tho keeping qualities and perhaps in the color, having more sunshine there than here. Bat we do not need to grow apples be yond our family use, which may be done on any little town lot. The post office department has decided that children going to and from school chall not bo allowed to get their parent's mall, so do not blame the postmaster if your chil dren are refused the mail. The post office habit among the children has become a nuisance both to the public and the postmaster, and the depart ment has done wisely In making this decision. Ex. Not the libel on your papsr.
