THE LETTER WRITING HABIT.
Ben Selling, clothier and capitalist,
or is it capitalist and clothier, has
taken a leaf from Senator Jonathan
Bourne's campaign book. Looking
back to six years ago, Mr. Selling re
members that Bourne flooded Oregon
with letters and literally wrote him
self into the United State Senate.
There is nothing new under the
sun.
Mr. Selling's first essay into the let
ter writing field is in the nature of
an inquiry. He wants to know just
how people take him, so he writes
letters. Mr. Selling is reputed to be
a rich man. He is said to own the
new Selling building in Portland, and
has an interest in the Selling-Hirsh
building and he owns a string of cloth
ing stores in the metropolis.
Being a rich man, Mr. Selling can
afford to aspire to the United States
Senate, and the postage stamp route
got the place for Bourne, and why not
for Selling! Besides there is a de
ficit in the postoffice department and
the Government needs the money.
So Mr. Selling, in his initial letter,
says Bourne does not represent the
people of Oregon. He more than inti
mates that Mr. Bourne is allied with
the Aldrich crowd, and that his finan
cial interests are identical with that
bunch. ifciiJ
That appears to be a reasonable sur
mise. But what does the reflector say?
Because Mr. Selling has stood for
what is known as "progressive''
things in politics, does it follow that
he is a plain citizen?
Does it mean that his interests are
those of yours and mine?
To use a New Englandism, we want
to know.
If the possession of city property
valued at more than a million and a
"string on the clothing business of a
great aud growing metropolis means
that Mr. Selling's real interests are
so far separated from Mr. Bourne's
that the voters of Oregon will have to
choose between them, we want to

in a way. We will
lose freight. It means that New
York manufacturers will be able
to quote practically New York prices to San Francisco consumers:
Just as soon as the canal is opened the big employers of labor in
the west will be able to solve the labor problem of many years' stand
ing and by importation of unprejudiced men handle the labor market
in such a way as to clear the whole atmosphere. This is not a fight,
but simply an adjustment, and will be ALONG NATURAL LINES.
Another thing that is not known is that oriental goods will go
DIRECT TO NEW YORK instead of transshipping to rail at San
Francisco and Seattle. This will greatly increase New York's trade.
The popular idea that the ships will all go one way is wrong. They
will GO BACK AGAIN WITH AMERICAN GOODS.
SO VAST IS THE TRADE MOVEMENT ALREADY STARTED NOW
IN THE SHAPE OF TANGIBLE NEGOTIATIONS, SUCH AS MANU
FACTURERS' AGENCIES, THAT HONGKONG, SAN , FRANCISCO AND
NEW YORK WILL FORM A CHAIN OF INTERDEPENDENT MAR
KETS, SO LINKED TOGETHER THAT THEY WILL FORM A DOMI
NANT FACTOR IN WORLD TRADE. , . ,
Under an apparently quiet surface this gigantic movement has
made such headway that when its actual operation sets in motion the
BUSINESS WORLD WILL BE ASTONISHED.

"THE DEEP PURPLE."
Successful plays of today seem to
fall naturally into certain classifica
tions, one of the most popular of
which is the plausible, melodrama,
the realistic play slangily described
as "the play with the punch." There
is no disguising the fact that these
plays are melodramtic, nor is there
any purpose in doing so unless one
wishes to prevent their confusion with
the lurid form of entertainment that
held sway in the popular-priced houses
some years ago. Three out of four
plays that are worth while are essen
tially melodramtic, and as long as
there remain a few "Pomander
Walks,'' and "Men from Home" to
add the spice of variety to the drama
tic menu, good melodramas are wel
come. , ,
Paul Armstrong seems to have made
himself master of the knack of giving
modern melodrama flesh and blood,

of life into a popular stage success.

Valentine." Now he and Wilson Miz-

among the romantic dramas of the
present-day stage. It is replete with
strong human interest, is full of life
and spirit, and the comedy element is
much and enjoyably in evidence. The

ner have dramatized the under-world
of New York city and out of its black
mailers and confidence men have
built a realistic and exciting drama
that interests, entertains and most
certainly thrills. The experienced
playgoer who can no longer get the
cherished "thrill" from the artificial
melodrama tff the older school, may
find it here in a play where it is real
life and real conditions that are de
picted. "The Deep Purple" will be seen at
the Heilig Theatre next Thursday,
Friday and Saturday, with a Saturday
matinee, coming directely from a six
months' run in New York, and two
runs of an aggregate greater lentgh in
Chicago. In both these cities the fine
interpreting cast commanded much
attention. There are seven splendid
parts, acted by seven actors of rep
utation, all of them of the naturalis
tic school and almost, if not quite, of
stellar calibre. It is one of the best
companies of the year, and like so

the attractive young lady is a reign

country from a burdensome and op

of the young ruler, comes to the res

His Pink
Valentine
It Came to Him
After All
By Clarissa Mackie
At Miss Perry's little stationary
store on the opposite corner they were
hanging valentines in the front win
dow. Basil Ames could see a white
sleeved arm dart in and out behind
dimity curtains, and each time the arm
darted out it left another gorgeously
tinted love missive on the line swing
ing across the pane.
"Bah!" muttered Basil contemptu
ously and drew, back in the shadow of
his own window curtains and rattled
his crutches to remind himself that
he was now a helpless lump of hu
manity and had nothing to do with
love or lovemaking.
Basil's mother, passing through the
hall, glanced into the sitting room and.
seeing her big son absorbed in read
ing, nodded her head and smiled ap
proval. She went on into the kitcerjn
where her daughter Mary was mak
ing a cake. Mary Ames was a tall,
slender young girl with all of Basil's
beauty of form and feature, only in a
more softer feminine" way. As she
stirred the cake batter vigorously she
glanced over her shoulder at her little
mother.
"He's reading, Mary. I am so glad
he can be interested in anything ex
cept himself," sighed Mrs. Ames as
she sat down in a rocking chair and
began to pare red cheeked apples.
"What did the doctor say this morn
ing?" asked Mary.
" "He thought there was an improve
ment. He has tried to encourage Basil
"I'M SORRY, MART," HB CONFESSED
HUMBLY.
by telling him he would be up and
around by the 1st of March, but that
is all nonsense."
"Of course if he could walk again by
Easter it would be a miracle almost,"
observed Mary. "Somehow he doesn't
help himself any. mother."
The accident had been a bad one, and
both of Basil's legs had been broken.
There had also been a slight paralysis
of one side, but it had since disappear
ed, but when his hip was quite numb
and lifeless and his two useless limbs
were stretched in rigid plaster casts
Basil Ames, the courageous, the care
free, the optimistic spirit of his family,
broke down and declared that his use
fulness in the world was at an end;
he would be a drag on his friends the
rest of his crippled life.
During this - period of depression
Basil wrote to Emily Ford and offered
her her freedom. He told her that he
was a broken wreck of a man and that
he could not offer his life to any wo
man now. He said that he loved her;
that he always would love her. -He
could not do otherwise, for she was
the one woman in the world for him,
but it was only fair to her to release
her from her allegiance to one who
had once been a strong man, but now
was merely a helpless invalid.
Emily Ford sent back the diamond
ring he had given her in token of their
engagement. She did not write any
thing. She merely sent back the ring
that was all.
Suddenly Basil looked up from his
magazine and espied Miss Nettie Perry
still hanging valentines in the shop
window. In a fury of despair he flung
his magazine across the room and up
set his sister's favorite pot of flowers.
The pot fell to the. floor with a crash
and the earth was scattered over the
Seat floor.
Basil was staring shamefacedly at
the ruin he had wrought When his
mother and sister entered.
"What is the matter, dear? Oh, you
re all rightr - Mrs. Ames patted his
pillow comfortably and smoothed the
thick dark locks out of bis eyes.
"I'm sorry, Mary," he confessed hum
bly. "I was feeling ugly enough and
tossed my magazine across the room
and upset the plant. I nope you be
lieve me when I tell you that it actu
ally hurts me to know I can't get over
there and pick the thing up for you!"- .
"It doesn't matter, Basil, dear," as
sured Mary' as she deftly swept up the
dirt and gathered the , debris Into a
newsnaner. "I was going to repot It
anyway, so yoa have really helped ma
along!" "
Tears sprang to Basil's eyes at their
goodness to him. "I'm a gruff," disa
greeable sort of chap to have around,
mother," he murmured as his eyes
closed under the magic touch of her
sympathetic hand. "I -think I'd feel
better if I tackled my work again. Do
you mind telephoning down to Peterson
to come up tonight and talk over the
plans for the new mill?"
Of course Mrs. Ames was delighted
to do that anything to get her beloved
son's mind off his personal grievances
and in tonch with his work once more.
The doctor had said that was the only
cure for the young man's depression.
The broken limbs would take care of
themselves and soon be ready for the
crutches waiting in the corner for
him.
Basil Ames was a building contrac
tor. It had .been hi father's business,
and the young man had Inherited it,
together with his father's keen busi
ness judgment and honest methods. It
was while Basil had been' up on the
roof of the new church inspecting the
work done by his men that his foot
had slipped on the shingles and he had
been precipitated to the ground.
Mrs. Ames almost danced out to the
telephone to call up Peterson, the
foreman. Peterson was almost as
much pleased as Basil's mother at the
young contractor's renewed energy
and interest lh life.
Every night thereafter ' Peterson
came up anil gave Basil a report of
the day's work, talked over matters
tinder way and received his orders.
As a result Basil looked better, ate
better and slept more soundly, but
the bitter lines around his mouth did
not relax. His bed had been drawn
close to the front window so that he
might see whatever of interest occur
red in the main street.
So that was how it happened! that
the valentines In Miss Perry's shop
window stared him out of countenance
every day. Basil's eyes were very
keen, the street was narrow and the
valentines were large, so he soon
grew to know the different one3, but
he could only guess at the love mes
sages inscribed on them.
There was a large blue valentine on
the end with Interlocked hearts of
gold, through which arrows were
thrust. Drops of red indicated that
blood was being spilled from the
wounded organs.
A great pink valentine was Basil's
favorite, if he permittett "himself that
weakness. A girl's fa?e peeped from
an oval in the middle of the rosy mis
sive, and Basil imagined that it was
the face of Emily Ford looking at
him. He always blushed nt this point
and turned his bend away and hated
valentines for several hours there
after. He had forgotten thnt lie hnl
broken with Emily Fo--d and that she
had not cared indeed, a meddlesome
visitor bad hinted that Emi'v was re
ceiving attentions from nnotlisr source.
Basil was glad that lie had broken the
engagement.
"I'll be around at Easter, mother."
was Basil's encouraging remark on the
morning of St. Valpntine's day. "I
think I shall mnke my first attempt
with the crutches the 1st of March.
That's two weeks off, and then I'll be
Mrs Ames kissed him suddenly and'
left the room. She saw that his
cheerfulness was forced, that he was
trying to get around .again more for
her sake and for Mary's rather than
any interest he had in life.
"It's all that Emily Ford, the little
minx!" scolded Mrs. Ames to her
daughter. "Here she's engaged to
Basil and so far as I know ain't so
much as inquired for him nor written
him a word. I wouldn't have believad
it of Emily. I always loved her like
a daughter."
"I don't understand it, mother," ad
mitted Mary. "I saw Mrs. Ford this
morning, and she said that Emily was
coming home this afternoon to stay
over Sunday. Perhaps she will come
and see Basil."
"I hope so," was Mrs. Ames' remark
as she carried Basil's dinner in to him.
Just at sunset Basil was looking out
of the window. The village street
seemed a litfle cold and lonely just
then. There were no passersby, and
even the valentines in Miss Perry's
window had disappeared. "Very likely
Miss Perry was rejoicing that she had
sold them all, but Basil felt rather
hurt about the pink one. He almost
considered it as his own. He would
have asked Mary to buy it for him.
only It was such a confession of weak
ness. He despised himself for even
thinking about it.
It was growing colder outside, and
fairy frost pictures were etched on his
windowpanes. The sun was setting,
and a long red ray shot between two
houses opposite the Ames place and
flooded his windows with a pinkish
glow. The windowpane became a
fairy frostwork of pink.
"It's like the pink valentine." he ut
tered Involuntarily.
Suddenly something strange happen
ed. In the midst of the pink valentine
there appeared a dark oval space as if
the frost was melting under a warm
breath. Then in the oval space ap
peared a girl's, face pink cheeked,
sparkling, red lipped, blue eyed the
face of Emily Ford smiling at him.
And he had broken their engagement,
bo it must be an optical illusion.
But it remained the pink frostwork
valentine, and Emily's face - smiling
through at him. And all at once he
realized that It was all real that the
pink valentine had come to him after
all.
The face vanished only to reappear
at his bedside.
"I I want that ring back," half sob
bed Emily.
"My pink valentine!" murmured
Basil between kisses.
Scott's Rapid Writing.
Sir Walter Scott was one of the most
rapid writers tbat the world has ever
known. He wrote "Guy Mannering"
in a couple of months, and tbe same
time sufficed for "Old Mortality,"
while "Ivanhoe" was actually dictated
as Scott lay upon a couch suffering
from excruciating pain. But perhaps
the most rapid work even he ever ac
complished was his colossal "Life of
Napoleon." in nine volumes. This he
wrote in oue year, intermixed with
much other work. '
