TWO BOXES BORN AGAIN.
A handsome piece of furniture can
be made out of a few boxes, a sash
curtain and a little stain and varnish.
Julia V. M. Smith describes in Farm
and Home how her father made her
a combination writing desk and book
case. ,
First, he took one of the boxes and
smoothed it off on all sides. Then
he fitted shelves into it A smaller
box was smoothed off in the same
manner as the first, and its sides
were cut off at an angle, so as to
form the slanting sides of the desk.
This box was nailed on top of the
first. It was divided into compart
ments by the putting in of little shel
ves. The desk cover was a whole board
and was fastened to the lower part of
the desk with hinges, so that it might
be closed when not in use. When the
cover is open, it rests on two. sticks
which slide in and out of two cases
made for them, placed at the joining
of the two boxes. -
Fasteners such as. are used for or
dinary sash curtains were used to
hold up the brass rod upon which
the curain was hung. The whole desk
was given a coat of walnut stain and
a pretty curtain was provided. The
result was a very attractive and con
venient piece of furniture, at a mini
mum cost and with a little labor.
Famous Old Colonial Church.
St Michael's, In Charleston. S, C.. at
the time of its completion In 1761 was
the finest chun'h edifice in tue UnKed
States and one of the very few entirely
of masonry construction, iucludin-s the
tower as far as the belfry. It now
utnnds apparently as firm as the day it
was dedicated. Work on it was begun
in 1752. Like almost all the colonial
churches, this one suffered vicissitude
during the Revolutionary war. Its rec
tor was aTory and was compelled to
resign, leaving the church affairs in a
somewhat chaotic condition. Material
ly It suffered through' the loss of -its
leaden roof, which was removed to fur
nish bullets for the colonial rifles. Ar

SHANTUNG COAT SUIT
A distinctive little coat suit of nat
ural color shantung is sketched above.
The cutaway coat closes with a single

narrow pleated ruffles of tobacco
brown satin. This satin is also ap
plied in the form of odd shaped revers
which are trimmed with cyrstal but
tons. .The skirt closes slightly to the
left of the front, the over-lapping edge
finished by an applied piece of the
satin similar to that which simultes
revers. The satin is also used for the
wide turn-back cuffs. With this - is
worn a hat whose crown is of silk in
the shade of the shantung and rolling
brim is covered with tobacco brown
satin. A feather ornament of brown
and tan trims the sides.

PEG LEGGED OPTIMISM.
A friend sends us the story of John
Goodwin,-cripple.
In 1910 Goodwin moved on to a farm
near West Point, Ga. It was a small
brush farm and required, much clear
ing to prepare it for crops. One day
hi brother, who was helping him, ac
cidentally shot Goodwin in the leg.
Amputation became necessary, the
flmb being cut off just below the
knee.
Goodwin was without money and
had a family to support but he did
not give up hope.
In a few weeks he was hobbling
about on crutches directing things.
The neighbors kindly helped him' out
and, crippled as he was, he succeeded
in raising fourteen bales of cotton and
some corn.
Then he got a peg leg.
He moved the next winter to a larger
place, which was also a brush farm.
He went vigorously to work clearing
the land. In speaking of his work this
indomitable cripple says:
"I did as much plowing as ever I did
in one season on my peg leg."
There's a picture for you plowing on
a peg leg! ,
Moreover, he says:
"I made sixteen bales of cotton and
some corn, besides raising some fine
shotes for my meat and lard. I may
come out in debt some, but 1 am not
lonesome."
Now
One might suppose Goodwin would
be satisfied with having cleared two
farms In as many years, but In a re
cent letter he says: ,
"I have got new ground this year
and am preparing it while it is too
wet for anything else. I am going to
raise more corn this year. I forgot to
tell you about my hay. I cut and
housed twenty big loads."
How is that for a cripple? 1
One cannot but wonder what Good
win might be able to do with two good
legs. And the optimism of the man is
good to think about.
Some there are who besides being
maimed in limb are lamed in mind, but
not John Goodwin.
When he was shot In the leg he was
not wounded in spirit.
You can cripple a man's body, but
you can't make his mind -go on
crutches.
John Goodwin's lp lies moldering
In the tomb, but his soul goes march
Insr on.

WOOL MARKET STRONG

on a small scale as compared with
that of a few weeks ago. In both
Eastern and Western Oregon the bulk
of the 1912 clip has passed out of

goad prices and sellers disposed to

ern Oregon wool' is quoted at an ex
treme range of 14 to 19 cents, and
Valley products at 20 to 22.
