HOME CHICLE COLUMN.
A Column Dedicated to Tired
Mothers as They Join tlie Home
Circle at Eventide.
. MAKING A MAN.
Harry the baby as last a you can,
Hurry him, worry him, make him a man
Off with hia baby clothes, get him in
pants
Feed him on brain food and make him
advance .
Hustle him as soon ai he's able to walk,
Tnto the grammar school ; cram him
with talk.
Fill hia poor head full of figures and
facts,
Keep on jumping them in till it cracks.
Once boys grew up at a rational rate,
Now we develop a man while be waits,
KuBh him through college compel him
to grab
Of every known subject a dip and a dab
Qet him in business and after the cash,
All by tne time he can grow a mous
tache. Let him forget he was ever a boy,
Make gold his god and its jingle his joy,
Keep him a bustling and clear out ol
breath
Until he wins-nervous prostration and
death.
Every school boy knows that a kite
would not fly unions it bad a string ty
ing it down. It is juBt so in life. The
man who is tied down by half a
dozen blooming responsibilities and
their mother, will make a higher and
Btronger flight than the bachelor, who
having nothing to keep him Bteady, is
always floundering in the mud. If you
want to aaconu m the world, he your
elf to somebody.
If our readers give but the faintest
echo to tlieir enthusiastic appreciation
with which we know they read the
Hone Circle Column our deeire will be
reaciieu and tue utmost expectations we
have entertained will have been real
weu. it your neighbors and mends are
not subscribers for this paper speak to
them regarding this special feature
which they can find in no other paper in
ine county.
we were greatly charmed this spring
by the sight near a email rivulet of four
stately trees growing from one root. W
loved to sit in the shadow iim of one
and then of the other and to watch them
swaying in the wind and kisB each other
through the interlacing branches. So it
Bbould be with our numerous churcheB
and with relinioua aspirations each
separate in some sense from the other,
and yet blossoming alike and bearing
iruit alike, shooting up into the light to'
gether and alike gloruving the land.
11 ere is a lamny ot three, tour, or
perhaps seven children. They are sur
rounded by a thousand Implements of
mischief. The circumstances are such
as tend to lead them into mischief
They, all of them, are tilled with Bullish
H6H8 and pride and vanity and other
feelings of the loer nature which are
ready to explode at the slightest touch.
At the merest provocation they would
naturally get angry and scratch, and
scold and quarrel, aud yet all day long

reo in a happy and peaceful state of
mind from morning until eight? They
do not know it hut it is the forethought
of the mother. It is the touching of this
one's disposition and that one's disposi
tion, first on this side and then on that.
It is the wise administration of love a
the household which keeps everything
moving harmoniously. The children do
not know how to take care of themselves
and there are many little temptations to
wrangle with each other; but there sits
the mother, who without any superior
ity, governs them in their play. There
is an atmoBpliere thrown off from the
mother's heart which keeps the whole
household in order, and all progresses
regularly and happily.
The true lady iB known wherever you
meet her. Six womeu get into a street
car or omnibus, nd though we never
before saw them it ia easy to pick out
the true lady. She does not giggle con
stantly at everything that transpires.
She wears no (lowered brocade to be
trodden under foot, nor rose-tinted
gloves, but the lace frill round her face
is scrupulously fresh, and the bows un
der her chin have evidently been han
dled only by dainty lingers. 8 lie makes
no parade of a watch if she wears one;
still we notice such a trim little shoe,
not paper soled, but of an anti-enn-Buniption
thickness; tlie bonnet or hat
upon her head is sin, ply trimmed; she
is quite as evil to the poorest ae to the
richest pui sou ho sits beside her. II
she attracts attention it is by the un
conscious grace of her person and man
ner and not by the ostentation oi her
dress. We are quite sorry when she
pulls the strap and disappears. If we
were a bachelor we should go tunie to
our solitary den witli a resolution to he
come a better and a married man. The
strongest man feels the Influence of wo
man's gentlest thoughts as the in it: lit
iest oak quivers in the sol test breeze.
Never did language better apply to an
adjective than when calling the wile the
"better half ." We admire the ladles
because of their beauty, respect them
because of their virtues, adore them be
cause of their intelligence, and love
them because we can't help it.
COMMENCEMENT DAYS.
June, with its bright graduating claites
and decorations of roses and ferns which
seem to "look pleasantly into the secret
tenses ol the goodness of the Heavenly
Maker," is just as delightful to the eye
and quickeuing to the heart and mini, as
it was yean ago when we older people
atepped out of school life into life's
sohool. In every community there are
home made ready for the return of a
son or daughter from school. How will
ingly all hands of the home circle are
employed making attractive the home;
and how anxious the father and mother
become as the time of arrival approaches,
Mot only is the return causing much ex
citement in the home, but young people
of the neighborhood are also jubilant
over their friends' return, and many of
them will be at the depot togivea warm
welcome. The important question is
how will our young graduate greet her
young friends who have never been away
to school? Oultou tells us that "he who
st udies books alone will know how things
ought to be, while he who studies uiau
will know how things are;" but we who
study both men and books know' that
she should greet them in an unaffected

manner; artectionatelv, lovingly, as true
friends. Too often on such occasions
the friends are greeted with "I know it
all and vou know nothing," which cre
ates wounds too deep for healing, Think
you it is no sacrifice for the fattier and
mother to toil on dav after day and deny
themselves many things they should
have for their comfort in order to meet
the college expenses? Does it not seem
cruel that they shopld often be rewarded
by hearing fault-finding, criticism and
even unjust ridicule of the old home, the
old friends and associates? Th9 once
happy home iB made miserable, and the
other members of the family so severely
corrected that they deeply regret there
iB one in the house who knows so much.
Sometimes an old neighbor, one of those
good old souls that we always think of
and send for when an" of the family are
sick, comeB in for a viBit with oui4 young
Udy graduate whom she has watched aa
she grew from babyhood to beautiful
youdg womanhood. Our young graduate
realizes the difference between herself
and the kind hearted neighbor that
nursed her threugh the trying times
when measles and wuoopin" cough were
in the family, and if she enters into con
versation talks so lnarnodlir that: the
visit is a disappointment which should
nave been a golden visit, we 'nave no
such graduates in this community, but
in all others you will find them.
MAKES WORK EASIER.
Oregon City People ArePleased to Learn
How It la Done.
It's pretty hard to attend to duties
With a constantly aching back ;
With annoying urinary disorders.
Doan's Kidney Pills make work easier
They cure backache;
They cure every kidney ill.
Mrs. 0, Richards, wife of C. Richards,
Portland, painter, and living at 671 Mar
ket street, says; "Mr. Richards values
Doan's Kidney Pills very highly. He
has had attacks of kidney trouble for
years. He is a painter by trade and
there is no doubt but the turpentiue has
had more or less ell'ect on his kidneys,
as I believe moBt painters are more or
less Htliicttid with kidney troubles. Last
fall he had an acute attack and when
Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to our
notice and I got him a box, they so reg
ulated his kidneys that relief cume in a
remarkably short time. I have often
heard him express his appreciation of
this valuable remedy "

Casadero- and Egtaeada.
Casadero, the townsite or city-site,
two miles above Estaeada, is great in
possibilities. An outsider cannot tell
what the 0. W. P. & Ky Co. intends to
do. The trace between the two points
lies in the narrow bottom on the uorth
bank of the Clackamas. At the end of
the track a crusher is grinding rock for
Portland. On the south bant in Casa
dero, both banks being connected ' by a
bridge. Fire and a steam engine provided
with drum and cable are clearing laud,
for the site of the reservoir, it ia laid,
which is to furnish the power (or the
huge electric p ant to be established
here. ' The reservoir presupposes ' a
ditch for tapping the river above. Casa
dero lies in a narrow canyon, the hills
oa either tide being laveral hundred
fuethigh.
Kstacada ii a problem too. It is said
that tweotv lots bought on the install
ment plan have reverted to the company
the buyers having become discouraged.
The village has a straggling appearance.
The ctmpaov intends to muse its huge
hotel building profitable by excursions
from Portland. Whatever the In lure ol
the new villages may be, the farmers
along the line of the new railroad are
contldeut that it will be of great a (van
tage to them. It has proved to be such
already. As the thousands of cords of
wood piled up neat the track testify.
Wood at the track brings $2.50 per cord.
The clearing of land means the estab
lishing of new Louies and increase 111

cowboy's long eide.
A novel World's Fair feature will be a
long distance relay race of western cow
boys from Albuqueique, New Mexico, to
the World's Fair grounds, St. Louis, a
distnce of more than 1200 miles. The
cowboys who will participate in this long
race will have many relays at short dis
tances along the route instead of riding
the Bame horses all the time, thus insur
ing better time and less cruelty to their
horses.
The race will occur early in July.
LARGEST TALKING MACHINE.
St. Louis. The largest talking ma
chine in the world ia on exhibition in
the Palace of Liberal Arts at the World's
Fair. It is an exact duplicate of the
Graphophone which was sold to the
Shah of Persia and is constructed to op
erate with several cylinders at the same
time, so that different parts ot the same
song or other inusica' selection may
be
produced simultaneously with much
greater volume and harmony than with
the ordinary graphophone.
okkcOn's fisii pisplay,
fireiran'a fish and uame resources al
very well displayed at the Louisana Pur-1
chase Exposition in the Forestry Build-1
ine alone with the Btate forestry exhibit.
The combined display occupies a whole
section in the southeast corner of the
building, and makes a fine showing for
Oregon.
Of course the most important part of
the tieh display is the Royal Chinook
salmon from the Columbia. Five of
these big fish in great glass jars show
visitors what Oregon streams produce in
this line, each jar containing a single
salmon. Two other large jars have two
steelheads each on exhibition.
Every variety of Oregon game bird,
both upland and waterfowl, are on hand
to catch the sportsmen's eyes. The
birds are of course stuffed, with the ex
ception of a pair of Chinese ring neck
pheasants, which live in a cage at the
end of the exhibit. These birds attract
great attention, though they have now
lost many of their feathers. They were
very beautiful for a while, and were
among the most interesting features in
the whoie building.
Credit for the exhibit is due to Mr.
Geoige T. Myers, Jr., of Portland, who
has been aprjointed Superintendent of
the Fish and Game by the State Com
mission. He has worked hard with the
limited means at his disposal, and has
accumulated an exhibit that does Oiegou
great credit,
As said before, the gme and fish ex
hibit ia in the same npace as the main
forestry exhibit. This department is
under the supervision of Edmund P.
Sheldon, end comprises principally an
exhibit of Oregon woods and lumber.
Oregon's big timber is far too large to
place in the building, and it is therefore
placed with other big timber exhibits in
the outside space. Oregou baa two of
the largest sticks in this section, one be
ing tquare timber four feet on side
and 42 leet long, and the other a rough
log 30 feet long and ten feet in diameter.
This log is one of seven cut from an Ore
gon fir at Blind Slough, Clatsop eounty,
which ftood 200 feet to the first limb.
The whole tree scaled 40,000 feet, B. M.
In the inside display there are over 90
varieties of Oregon woods, all nicely ex'
hibited, ready to catch the eyes of the
fair visitors and show them what Oregon
can do in the lumber line.

Paine's Celery
Compound
Bestows that Health and
Vigor that Makes Liv
ing a Pleasure.
If you are sick and out-of-sorts, it is In your
power to make yourself healthy, strong, and
nappy.
There is not the slightest reason why you
should go through life feeling sickly, miserable,
languid, and melancholic. To be well and
strong, means happiness and true joy.
If you are sleepless, rheumatic, neuralgic,
dyspeptic, or have the shadows of disease
hSfeenng over you; it you are not as bright,
energetic, and strong as you were some weeks
. 1 ago, the use of Paine's Celery Compound will
tone up and fortify your whole system, cleanse
the blood, correct digestion, sharpen the
appetite, and conduce to restful sleep. Thous
ands once in a half-dead condition owe their
present good health to the use of Paine's
Celery Compound. Mr. Wm. S. Gibson, of
rieasureville, Ky., who, through sickness and
suffering, was brought near the dark grave,
writes as follows, regarding his marvelous
cure:
" I have been broken down in health and
strength, nervous system shattered, kidneys
out of order, had nervous and trembling spells
off and on for the last ten years. I have taken
three bottles of your Paine's Celery Compound
and all of the above-mentioned troubles have
left me, and I can now do a good day's work.
I go about my business all day long and it
don't worry me, and I now feel better than I
have in ten years. I have a good appetite,
and can eat and get around on foot as active
as when I was a boy. My age is 65 years."
