COOKING COURSE
Plans for the teachers' summer
"training school, which will hold a
three-week session at Gladstone park
immediately before the opening of the
Chatauqua season, are being com
pleted rapidly, and much interest in
the work is being expressed by in
structors "throughout the county. T.
M. Gary, superintendent of schools, is
in fLiilv-fcrereint of inmiiries and sug
gestions from teachers who are plan-
ning to -put in the time combining
"the fun- of camping with "institute"
work, and there is every indication
'tSat the new departure in scholastic
review will be" thorough success.-
Mr. Gary is at present seeking as
sistance from some of the teachers,
who are afforded a chance to reduce
their expenses while at the summer
school by working in the co-operacive
restaurant that will be derated. Any
instructor who desires to do this
work will be given free, board in re
turn, and as well will have an oppor
tunity to get a good grounding in do
mestic science, under the direction
of Miss Lulu Porter, instructor in
that subject at the Oregon City high
school. Miss Porter will have charge
of the restaurant, and will be glad to
impart to the teachers inside secrets
as to t-ie best and most economical
way of "ma!;ing Sunday's roast last
through until Thursdays hash.''
In addition to this, arrangements
have been completed with the various
; publishing houses to have instructors
present to demonstrate the best meth
ods of getting the most out of the
books to be selected by the state text
book commission. These instructors
will explain teaching methods', and
will give many hints for making the
work of drilling the various subiects
interesting alike to teacher and pup
ils. -Teachers throughout the county
are at present in the throes of an
nual examinations, or of marking pa
pers in examinations just passed. The
pupils have not done as well as was
hoped, possibly because of the ques
tions presented to them, and as a re
sult some of the instructors are not
as happy as they might otherwise be.

the present Japanese crisis. Accord
ing to Mr. Latourette the Chinese
and Japanesft are both exceptionally
polite, and pay strict - attention - to
formal etiquette. As a- resutl they
are keenly sensitive; and strongly re
sent anything that to them savors of
insult. Discrimination against them
in the matter of -land holding they in:
terpret as a direct reflecton upon
their race, and hence they are unable
to comprehend the motives behind
the American hostility to them.
"If it is the purpose of this' nation
to try and assimilate these people,"
said Mr. Laourstte in closing, "then
they must be given the same rights
as other aliens, and must be accord
ed citizenship if they fulfill the same
conditions that other immigrants do.
It wll be impossible to obtain their
true friendship if they are deprived of
the1 right to hold land," or are denied
any privilege accorded other nation
alities." Later in the meeting a committee

How to Start a Fortune.
Save a little every week, and when
you get an increase of wages or sal
nry continue to live within the former
limits and save the increase. If yon
Bud it difficult to save go In debt fop

will compel you to save. In these days,
of course, the average man has better
opportunities to win success in sala

terprises. The big enterprises pay big
salaries at the top. and close applica

bigger rewards. It Is not necessary for

SETTING A FASHION
Easy, No Matter How Freakish,
. if It Hits the Popular Fancy.
STYLES WITH ODD ORIGINS.
The Old Masculine Trick of Tying the
; Hair Behind Was the Result of a
Childish Prank, and the Beauty Spot
Grew From a Boil on a Lady's Cheek.
That many of the fashions -which be
came famous in their day and have
come down to our own were due to
chance or .accident is now a matter of
history. Interesting are the stories
told of the odd origin of certain styles
which an unsuspecting world probably
thought were intentionally chosen for
their beauty or comfort.
The courts of Europe have been es
pecially noted for their sheeplike fol
lowing of an idea introduced by the
reigning monarch, when frequently .
that idea was evolved to conceal one
of the ruler's physical defects. One
.of the kings of France came to the
throne a child of ten. He wore his hair
in long ringlets all about the head.
Immediately men and women coiffed
themselves likewise. The, same mon
arch was bald at thirty,, and, being a
lover of all that was beautiful and
feminine, he ordered the elaborate wig
which was taken up and reveled in
during many reigns.
As for the hair being caught in the
back and held with a small bow of
ribbou, the style beloved of men sev
eral hundred years ago, little girls are
said to have originated the Idea, and
accidentally. One day a court leader
happened to be visiting, and his hos
tess was late in arriving in the salon.
The young man fell asleep, and the two
children of the noble lady, creeping in.
saw the guest and to play a trick tied
his hair all together. The little girls,
fearing to be caught, ran away, and
the young man never knew of the
curious picture the back of his wig
presented. Other visitors discovered
the garnish, laughed at the ribbon, and
the young count declared barefacedly
that he had so fastened his hair and
meant to keep it always so from his
neck and shoulders. Within a few
days the entire nobility found the
scheme so good tbey adopted the idea.
The pannier was introduced by a
queen to cover a misplaced hip bone. It
was au actress who finally threw the
pannier aside after it had been fash
ionable half a century. One evening
just before she was to appear on the
stage the actress discovered that one
pannier was entirely drenched in oil.
The dress, it was thought, was-spoiled'
by a rival. .
The actress and her maid quickly
thought the matter over, and both to
gether -quickly tore off the offending
member of the costume. The actress
donned the dress, but of course it pre
sented -a . ridiculous appearance. So
the other pauuier was removed, and
the slim young woman appeared on
the stage more supple and graceful
than ever. The audience at first gasp1
ed. then admired, and the next day
all of London (the scene took place
there decided to imitate the actress
and her severe skirt
The origiu of the beauty spot is no
less interesting. The Duchess de
Montmorillon -suffered with a boil on
the cheek and put on a bit of black
mixture overnight said to be healing.
In the morning she either forgot to
wash her face or did not use enough
care, so the story goes, and the inat
tentive Or malicious iservant allowed
her mistress to appear "before the
world" with her face spotted. Powder
ed and perfumed. Montmorillon receiv
ed her callers, who found the black
spot charming, so much so that before
night they had aiiointed their faces
with the black ointment.
To come down to present times, the
feather boa was .originated less than
twenty years afio in Boston. In an
idle moment an fipprentice in a feather
establishment seived the discarded bits
and ends of poor plumes together and
strung them about her neck. " The
other girls laughed at the trimming,
the head of the department found it
pretty, and the order was given that
no castaways in the form of plumes
be thrown in the wastebasket. All
parts of the plumes were kept, sewed
on to a ribbon, the entire thing curled
aud long ribbon loops put at each end,
and the feather boa was the success of
the season.
The uncurled plume was purely the
result of . an accident. The biggest
race of the year, the Grand Prix d'Au
teui!, was on. and women were there
dressed within an inch of. their lives.
A fearful rainstorm came up, and peo
ple were drenched. Plumes that had
left home finely curled were wet, and
each spiral stood apart. It was not
pretty, the effect, but if was original,
and one of the milliners, not wishing
to take the trouble- to have the plumes
of all his customers recurled. advised
them to allow the garnish to remain .as
it was. 4
That week following the Grand Prix
d'Auteuil saw nothing but straight spi
ral plumes, and women iiked them so
much that before the following Sun
day, when the Grand Prix de Long
champ was to be, women who had
curled plumes had the wave taken out
so that they might appear like the oth
er fashionables. For more than a year
the dofrissee plume was sought. As a
whole fashion is, like in this instance,
only the result of an accident- Some
times it Is the outcome of an experi
ment: but. like the women, it is capri
cious and qhnngeable.New York Sun.
Never despair, but if you do work on
in despair. Edmund Bnrke.
"Going to the Dogs."
The phrase "going to the dogs" has
puzzled the explainers of metaphorical
expressions rather needlessly. It has
even, bee suggested that. It Is a pro
fane perversion of "'going to the gods."
Shakespeare's "Throw physic to the
dog?" and the Scriptural "Give not that
which is holy unto the dogs" have been
quoted In connection with the expres
sion. But It seems a fairly obvious
reference to the fate of the wornout
horse, condemned to be slaughtered.
The old Greek curse "Go to the
crows!" may be compared, referring as
It did to the Greek's horror of having
bis body left unburied as food for car
rion birds. London Spectator.
