By EDWIN A. NYE.
BUGS.
For many years a great Frenchman.
J. H. Fabre, has studied the habits
and manner of life of bugs.
Just bugs!
You crush them with your feet, un
thinWng. To you they are just bugs;
to Fabre they are sentient beings, al
most people.
The bug's strongest instinct is the
proper protection of its young, and its
strong sense of parenthood leads it to
turn architect and builder. It builds
some wonderfully fine apartments.
The bug builds warehouses and. stor
age plants, where it provides food for
its young. It pays more attention to
ventilation than do some people, pro
viding air chambers. Then, having
made suitable preparation, it lays its
eggs and goes its way content to die.
Can you beat the bug?
Sets you to thinking.
For instance, we people of today
boast of our civilization. And what is
our civilization? Go to the big books.
The authors tell you in big words that
civilization is the productou of surplus
wealth, the organization of industry,
the dispersion of thrift among the peo
ple, and that's about all.
Now
A hundred years ago the great
Frenchman Guizot told us that civiliza
tion of that sort was no better than
that of the bees aud the ants. And
now Fabre tells us the bugs are civi
lized that much.
The bees produce surplus wealth;
they organize industry aud disperse
thrift better than we. And so of the
bug?.
More than that
Bees and ants and bugs organize
governments. Why, the ant hill under
your feet is better governed. better
policed there are more law and order
than in auy peopled city of the world.
Well, then-
Is it not plain that we must have a
different definition of civilization or
the bugs-will beat us?
Let's do so. Civilization is more
than wealth and industry and thrift
and invention. What more? Civiliza
tion is the near realization of the ideals
of the best men aud women of the
race. Isn't that high above the plane
of material things? We must aim high
er than dollars or
The bugs will beat us.
Paraphrasing the words of another,
one easily might put into the mouth of
M. Fabre the saying:
"The more I know about some people
the more I think oC hugs."
"What is your name, dear?"
"My name, mum? It's Minnie."
"Well, you're the very thinnest,
smallest wisp of a child I ever saw."
"Yes; I'm the Irreducible Minnie,
mum." Chicago Tribune. " - -
PINK AND WHITE VOILE FROCK
Another attractive cotton voile frock
in pink and white is the subsject of
today's sketch. The model is girlish
in its lines and suitable for a slender
figure only The upper part of the
blouse was formed of the plain voile
combined with lace and embroidery
insertion, the lower half consists of
two horizontal puffs of the voile di
vided by a band of embroidery. There
is a shallow round yoke of all-over
lace. The skirt is narrow and trim
med with puffings and embroidery.
With this was worn a hat of neapoli
tan straw trimmed with pink roses.
CIVIL WAR VETERAN;
IE8 WOMAN 72
Mrs. Mary Charnig seventy-two years
of age, and Berry Buckner, sixty-eight
years of age, were married late Wed
nesday afternoon, Justice of the
Peace Samson officiating. Buckner,
who is a veteran of the Civil War, had
been married three times before. His
bride had been married once before
and has grown children. Mrs. Buck
ner's father was a shoemaker in Port
land, and owned part of the site of
the Portland Hotel. Mr. Buckner has
lived at Beaver Creek for several
years, but he and his bride will go to
housekeeping in this city. The wed
ding was solemnized at the home of
Mrs. Martha Beers.
MRS. MARY COOK DIES
AFTER L
Mrs. Mary Cook, sixty-eight years
of age, died Wednesday afternoon at
her home on the Fifth street road aft
er a lingering illness of cancer of the
stomach. She was the widow of
Frank Cook, who died about ten years
ago in Illinois. The funeral will be
held at the home at 2 o'clock Friday
afternoon and the interment will be
in Mountain View Cemetery. Mrs.
Cook is survived by a son, George H.
Cook, who is connected with "The
Timberman" in Portland. She was a
member of the First Presbyterian
Church, and no woman in Oregon was
held in higher esteem than she.
THE BRIGHT SIDE.
Words of cheer are words of
help; words of gloom are words
of harm. There is a bright side
and a dark side to every phase of
life and to every hour of time. If
we speak of the bright side, we
bring the brightness into promi
nence ; if we speak of the dark
side, we deepen its shadows. It
is in our pqwer to help or to hin
der by a word any and every per
son with whom we come in con
tact Which do you do ?

POTATO MARKET HAS
ANOTHER DOLL SPELL!
A lull has again appeared in the po-
tato trade. Orders for early ship- i
ment to Alaska have been filled and I
some additional business , composing '
only a few cars, will be secured after
the first of the month. ' -.
Contrary to expectations dealers ex- j
perienced no difficulty in securing all
the matured potatoes they needed and :
many more orders for the month can ;
be filled at this time. Purchases of
this quality were made by shippers at
75c per cental. . j
" Potato market in general has re-,
mained very slow. Buying has been
from hand to mouth with sales by j
producers at 60 65 c per sack. Port- i
land delivery. Many have been will- j
ing to accept this range and buyers' !
wants were soon taken care of. j
Owing to the likelihood that much '
Oregon, Washington and Idaho pota-1
toes will be pressing upon the Cali-!
fornia trade this season, it is expected I
that speculators from there will come ;
to Oregon and by purchasing a car j
here and there at a higher price, fool
the growers and force them to hold j
while the speculators unload. Re- j
membering the fake advices of these j
same interests last season it is not j
likely that the plan will prove so sue- j
cessful this year. Some growers here j
still have pits full of old potatoes
which speculators advised them to j
hold for still higher prices. They are
not worth freight charges today.

follows: ' , .' " j

3 DAYS DEMONSTRAT ON
This will be something to make you sit" up and take notice.
Many great things have been invented in the last decade, but very
little attention has been given to lightening women's work.
This famous range does away with all dirt, soot, grease, ashes and the
use of oils. It reduces the heat in the room to a trifle." It can be turned on
as easily as an electric light and is n ot only a labor saver but Is more ec
onomical than any other way of cook-ing.
An expert lady demonstrator will be at our office for there days, Thurs
day, 15, Friday 16, and Saturday 17. She will make practical demonstra
tions of this famous range.
