Mirabeau had a vision so little of it that the late Henry George said he "saw but dimly. These who" come after George may say as much or him, or at least say of him as he said of Mirabeau, that if the vision was clear to him he could not make it clear to others. New York, neither in city or state, has entered upon any single tax legislation, but owners of real property in that city are organiz ing, and complaining loudly that the constant agitation is resulting in such increases ' in real estate assessments threatened. . The figures seem to bear them out in the assertion. Within the last eight years real estate assessments in the City of New York have been in creased a little more than $3,000,000, 000. New York real estate values have been increasing steadily, and it is possible that, previous to' eight years ago, there were undervaluations, by assessors. If not, then an increas ed assessment of $3,000,000,000 would seem to be disproportioned to any possible increase in values which can have been made there. The fact that real estate owners have formed an or ganization and adopted a programme appears to indicate that the condition really approximates the seriousness they give it. One part of their programme indi cates this more clearly than any oth er. They are moving toward such changes in law and administration as will tax lands used for charitable, edu cational and religious purposes, all of which are now exempt. This field, against the landowners' organization, a number of other organizaitons very string politically and financially, and to make a battle of great proportions. It may consolidate the exempted latd interests with the unexempted, after the first shock of battle, in a common front against a common enemy. What real property in New York City seems to fear is the single ax, practic ally, without a statute to legalize it. A small classiiied ad will rent that vacant room. Humanity Talks Too Much By M.

"(Editor of the' EnterpriseJ-here is probably no one around town today who is drinking unboiled water, but we won der how many are using the water di- j rect from the tap for brushing their i teeth ! While very little of the water . may be swallowed, if the water does contain typnoid germs, a sufficient number can be introduced into the'i mouth in tnis manner to put one in bed lor forty days, as it doesn't take j sucii a heap of them to do the work I if the system is in suscipient condi-1 tion, and we do not remember just how many million bacteria can occupy one drop of water. Until the present epidemic is over, the only safe way is to avoid every thing on which suspicion falls, and no one is warranted in taking chances with the water. .To use boiled- water for drinking purposes, and for wash ing vegetables and fruit which are to be eaten uncooked, and then ntro duce the germs directly into one'a mouth dnd throat by brushing one's teeth with the tap water is highly in consistent when one stops to think about it. Too many think if the water is brought to the boiling point they have done their duty, but in countries where the war against typhoid and other serious diseases is waged every day in the year it is "the rule to boil the water not less than twenty min utesactually boiling that length of time. Small children when being bathed are apt to splash water--into their mouths, and where there is known to be danger from the water, anl tlia child is delicate, it should not be too much trouble to see that their bath water is properly sterilized. While such rigid care may seem silly to some, these are merely the precautions a few of the precautions that people in many districts are com pelled to observe three hundred and sixty five days in the year, and in a very" little while one forgets that there is any other way. Not being afraid of. typhoid, and thinking so many precautions foolish has not made anybody immune that we have-heard of, but after you have done all than can be done, then "for get it," and you stand a pretty fair chance tf escaping the fever, and, what means a lot to most of us7 keep ing your hair. ERNESTINE SINGER. MYERS TO SPEAK AT 1 The funeral of Eli Criswell, seventy six years of age, who was found dead in his barnyard at Maple Lane Tues day evening, will be held at -the cre matorium at Sellwood at 2 o'clock this afternoon.

"I have called on 'a matter of great im portance to me: whether It is of any Importance whatever to you remains to be seen. You remember we met but a month ago on a yachting party; that I chatted with you casually on that occasion; that you graciously permitted me to call upon you; that 1 have seen you since that first meeting perhaps a dozen times. During these meetings it has been but natural that I should take pains to conceal my faults; that 1 should wish to appear to you in as favorable a light as possible. You can' have gained only a superficial knowl edge of my character. I may be strong or weak, generous or -clean, well poised or passionate, but you do not know which-of these traits 1 posses. "Nevertheless I have cdine to ask you to be my wife. Why I have done so. premising my invitation by calling your attention to your meager knowledge of me. I will explain in a few words. 1 do not believe that, howeter long a man is acquainted with a woman or vice versa, the one can learn the sther's good or bad qualities. To discover this they must have been married some time. "Furthermore, I have observed that friendship rarely brings love. The sex es mate through a mysterious drawing together under the influence of what we call love, and all the world knows that love is blind. I therefore ask you to take the leap with me in the dark." After this extremely well poised proposition, Mr. Tourtelotte took out his handkerchief, drew it across his mouth with no purpose that was ap parentput it again in his pocket and awaited Mfcs Eldridge's reply with his eyes fixed on the ceiling. Miss Eldridge preferred looking on the floor; from which some women- scorning men would infer that the male aspires while the female grovels.' "I assure you. Mr. Tourtelotte." re plied the lady, "that I appreciate am deeply touched by the compliment you pay me. I am not surprised that one of your age should look upon marriage as a leap in. the dark. I have always myself considered it so, and perhaps that is the reason why I am approach ing middle age without having married Like you, I am somewhat analytical. While I see in man a great deal that is noble, I also perceive a great deal that a woman cannot admire. Till the twentieth century it has been his province to be a master to his wife. It Is only recently that brides are re fusing to use the word obey" In the marriage service. Then. too. a woman has no assurance when she marries that she will be gently treated. Our forefathers who lived in the middle ages considered women as their in feriors. In some barbarous lands to day girl children are roude away with. Among the Turks it Is still a disputed point among the men whether we have souls" "Pardon me,' Mr. Tourtelotte Inter rupted, the lady becoming .more and more wrought up with these growing injustices. "Our men in America are not descended from these semicivilized races: we are'even more considerate of our women than our Caucassian breth ren in Europe. Neither the Germans nor the English have the reputation for consideration of women that we have In America." "Pray excuse me. the wrongs our sex have suffered for centuries led me somewhat further from the matter that pertains to you and me alone than I had intended. I will return to it I propose a trial engagement for six months. I will agree to show myself, to you just as I am at home; you to pledge yourself to do the same in your own case." "Did I not say that we can never really know each other without having lived together as man and wife?" "In that case." said Miss Eldridge decidedly, "I see no hope for marriage in our case. I cannot consent to wed lock with a man who for aught I know may turn out to be a villain, who may maltreat me. and for whom love may turn to" " "I regret your decision, though 1 cannot commend ifs common sense. I would rather have given you an oppor tunity to know me better, but I have not the time. Tomorrow I go to China to engage in business. I hoped to take you with me. My disappointment is very great." An impressive silence followed. "Must you go so soon?" she asked. "I could not possibly remain over for a single day" - AnQther impressjve silence "It is a terrible risk " f "Terrible" "But"- -' "But"- V ' . ; "I know you are a gentleman, and I think yon must be good man." "You are not certain " "I think" - "You think?'- , - Til risk It." The next morning at 7 o'clock there was a wedding, and the bridal pair sailed at 10. When the two were on the ocean an other dialogue occurred. The husband said: v - "How. with all your misgivings as to men generally and one yon thought of marrying in particular, could you so suddenly take the leap in the dark?" "Firstly, it is the only condition nn der which ! could. marry at all: and secondly. ! think' taklntr n risk, afte' all. Is rather tilr-e" - England's Youngest Bride.

By EDWIN A.NYE OBLIGATO PLAYERS The singer with the golden voice poured a Hood of song into the great music null, thrilling and moving the people almost to the verge of tears. But Behind the singer and 'the song was the modest violinist, standing in the shadows and weaving around the song a subtle tracery of sound, sustaining and tilling up tbe measure of the sing er's voice. ' It was the violin obligato. The singer got all the applause. And neither the audience nor perhaps the singer gave full credit to the modest violinist. It is tbe way of the world.

She knew and appreciated who it was her scholarly father. Obligato players: Standing in the shadows behind the successful man is the mother or fa ther or wife, who guides, teaches, sac ritices. encourages glad and proud to be the humble player of obligato. John the Baptist played obligato. He said of the Master. t wflum he was forerunner:- "He must Increase, and 1 must decrease l am but a voice in tbe wilderness"-a herald, a player of obligato. .

Cook, referee of the fight be tween Jack Lewis, of this city, and Tommy Forhan, at Weed, California, several days ago has written to Mil ton Price of this city regarding the bout, which place3 the Ore.ron City man in a different light from what was at first reported. L. wis not only fought :i heavier man than himself, but was fouled throughout and fought for nine rounds aftei an artery had been severed. Never oefo.'e iu the history of boxing in the Unite-I t-tHtes has such dogged do.;ermi nation been shown by a ring expert. Cook writes: "Jack Lewis put up a good game fight. His opponent is an old hand it the game and weighed 148 pounds and had at least five inches in reach on the Oregon City man. A glove on For- han's hand had a brass clipp on each end aid one of them cut an artery in Lewis' nose in the second round. De spite this disadvantage the Oreson City lad fought gamely through nine more rounds when I stopped the bou although Jack wanted to continue. I believe Lewis could have eventually won the fight and would now hold the welter-weight championship of the northwest. He made many friends while here. I am trying to arrange a return match between the men." EXPENSE BILL IS CUT BY CONGRESS WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.

When gray hairs appear it is a sign that Nature needs assistance. It is Nature's call, for help. .Gray hair, dull, lifeless hair, or nair that is fall ing out, is "not necessari'y a sign of old age, for there are thousands ol elderly people without a single streak of gray. When gray hairs come, or when the hair- seems to be lifelass or dead, some good, reliable hair-restoring treatment should be resorted to at once. Specialists say that one of the best preparations to use is the old- fashioned "sage tea" which our grand parents Mised. . The best preparation of this kind is Wyeth's-Sage and Sul phur Hair Remedy, a preparation of domestic sage and sulphur, scientifi cally compounded with later discov ered hair tonics and stimulants, the whole mixture being eawlully v.a!au ced by experts. Wyeth's Sage and Sulpaar is clean and wholesome and perfectly harm less. It refreshes dry, parched hair, removes dandruff and gradually re stores faded or gray hair to its nat ural color. Don't delay another minute. Start using Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur at once and see what a difference a few days' treatment will make in vour hair. This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by all drug ists.
