BIG COMFORT AT SMALL COST. e$s-issssss8sse $ $ "A PRINCE OF EVIL" S At the Grand Wednesday S $ USE WELL YOUR TIME. The rime allotted us, if it were well employed, were abundant enough to answer all the ends and purposes of mankind, but we squander it away in avarice, drink, sleep, luxury, ambition, fawning ad dresses, envy, rambling voyages, impertinent studies, change of coun sels and the like, and when our portion is spent we find the want of it, though we give no heed to it in the passage, insomuch that we have rather made our life short than found it so.

But when a man is left waiting at the church it is considered a good joke. Philadelphia Ledger. Try a Chiffonier Instead of an Extra Trunk the Next Time Family Be longings Are to Be Expressed An Ice Cream Expedient. Dear Elsa While waiting for Dick to join me at the Grand Central station the other day I whiled away the time (fifteen minutes, mind yon men are always punctual!) by observing the peo ple who used the little mirrors over the automatic chewing gum machines. It was funny to note the different ways in which the glasses were used by the women and the men. When a pretty girl came tripping along and caught the reflection of her face in the mirror she immediately looked to see if her nose was shiny and, if so, surrep titiously or openly, according to her nature, applied a dab of powder; or she readjusted her veil or tucked in a way. ward lock of hair. In this way she justified her vanity or was it vanity after all? But the men. my dear! They don't care a rap whether their noses are shiny or not Still I noticed that they spent just as long a time in front of the mirrors gazing at themselves as the women. And such tricks as they played 'twould make the angels weep to see them. They turned their heads first this way and then that, looked straight into their soulful eyes, turned back their upper lips and closely ex amined their teeth and even smiled at themselves to get the effect : Now, from all these signs and won derful grimaces I gathered that our, masculine friends were freely looking at and admiring themselves and that' the performance might be termed just plain vanity. The women had a deeper and more subtle excuse for using the glasses the details of the toilet to ad just To stop knocking the men, who, after all, are pretty decent creatures for the most part let me tell you about a novel plan hit upon by a young mother who. with her two little daugh ters, is spending the summer at Atlan tic City. The distance was not great between the home of the thrifty matron and the summer city by the sea, so she decided not to take much luggage not more than she could possibly get on without. But plan as she would it became a question at last of either getting another trunk or leaving at home much needed belongings. A wardrobe trunk, she decided, would solve the difficulty beautifully, as it Pi 1KJ EjjIl.L IB FOJR SALE BY OWNER Gity of Gladstone Two lots, level and clear, 50x100 ft., two blocks from heart of Gladstone, room for several houses.

Oregon City if wouia not only give tne required space, but would be a boon in the boarding place at the seashore. - 'A telephone inquiry as to the cost of the wardrobe trunk quickly showed this little mother that another way out of the difficulty must be found. By putting her brains to work it Was not long before the solution came. In the back hall upstairs there was a cheap chiffonier of oak, in which were kept the children's dresses and under wear. She decided that if she could do it she would take the chiffonier as it stood, doing away, you see, with the bother of packing it first and re packing its contents in a trunk. This clever little lady called up an express company and asked if she could express an uncrated chiffonier and, if so, what it would cost She was told that she could do so and that the express charge would be $1.20 for every hundred pounds. Madam then set to work upon the receipt of this joyful news to arrange the contents of the chiffonier more carefully with a view to safe transportation. After the contents of the chiffonier had been settled the five drawers were locked and the whole thing was cov ered with an "old piece of canvas and firmly tied with rope. The express company delivered it safely at the ho tel and it was placed in her room at a total cost of $1.80. Just think, dear, of the comfort and convenience one can gain if her "think tank" will only work a little overtime. For the last few weeks I have had the most hoplessly ignorant Swedish maid to struggle with it has ever been my bad fortune to encounter. Although I had to labor long and earnestly to instruct her how to do the simplest household duties there is one useful thing she taught me. It is this: How to dispose of left over ice cream that is, cream that has been turned out on a plate. The Swedish idea is to take a glass fruit jar, large or small, according to the quantity of the cream, and pack the cream down hard in it with a spoon. I want to emphasize that word "pack" because I think it is that which makes the process so successful. When the cream is in the jar put a piece of paper over the top and then screw on the cover as tightly as you can. Now place the jar back in the pail with the salt and ice. Several hours after this process has been accomplished you will find the ice cream as firm as when first made, if not even better, no mat ter how soft it may have been when it was put in the jat. You will not find this the case, however, unless the pail has plenty of ice left in it As Dick and myself are not iee cream fiends we consider this new packing scheme a great saving in the high cost of living. Don't you fairly hate the words "high cost of living?" Well, if you can look at the matter with fortitude there is one who cannot or will not and that's yours devotedly, MABEL. THE WISDOM OF EPICTETUS. When you. make any charge against providence, consider, and you will learn that the thing has happened according to rea son. ' Yes. but the unjust man has the advantage. In what? In money. Yes, for he is superior to you in this that he falters not is free from shame and is watchful. What is the wonder? But see if he has the advantage over you in being faithful, in being modest, for you will not find it to be so, but wherein you are superior there you will find that you have the advantage. If a man has frequent inter course with others, either for talk or drinking together or gen erally social purposes, he must either become like them or change them to his own fashion, for, if a man places a piece of quenched charcoal close to a piece that is burning, either the quenched charcoal will quench the other or the burnuig char coal will light (hat which is quenched. Since then the dan ger is so great we must cautious ly enter into such intimacies with those of the common sort and remember that it is impos-sible-that a man can keep com pany with one who is covered with soot without being partaker of the soot himself. One man must keep watch, another must go out as a spy. and a third must fight and it is not possible that all should be in one place, nor is it better that N it should be so But you, neglect ing to do the commands of the general, complain when anything more hard than usual is Imposed on you. and you do not deserve what you make the army be come as far as it is in your pow er. If all imitate you no man will dig a trench, no man will put a rampart round nor keep watch nor expose himself to danger, but will appear to be useless for the purpose of an army. Seized the Opportunity. There were bold thieves and bold methods in the earlier days in Holborn. Here is an example: Said a stout, asthmatic old gentleman to a well dressed stranger who was passing: "A rascal has stolen my hat. I tried to overtake him, but I'm so out of breath I can't stir another inch." The stranger surveyed the other with critical eye. The victim was puffing and panting as for dear life. In the pleasantest tone in the world the stran ger said, "Then I'll be hanged, old boy, if I don't have your wig!" So saying, he snatched that article from the suf ferer's head and ' departed like the wind, leaving him with head as bare as a babe's. St James' Gazette. Oh. Where Was She?

Albany Journal. Gambetta' Lost Eye. Gambetta, the French patriot, had but one eye. How he came to lose the other in childhood is told by a writer: "It appears that Gambetta had such a dislike to going to school that he said to his father that unless he were taken from school he would poke one of his eyes out His father In sisted .on his remaining on at school, whereupon Gambetta did as he had threatened to do, and on his father remonstrating with him he said that if his father sent him back again to school he would poke the other eye out Such a determined character was he that his father had finally to give way to him.'

WARNING Since its introduction into the Unit ed States, the sales of Parisian Sage have been phenomenal. This success has led to many imitations. Look out for them, .get the genuine. See that the girl with the Auburn hair is on every package. Parisian Sage is the quickest act ing and most efficient hair tonic in the world. It is made to conform to Dr. San gerbond's (of Paris) proven theory that dandruff,, fairing hair, baldness and scalp itch are caused by germs. Parisian Sage kills these dandruff germs and removes all trace of dan druff in two weeks, or money back; it stops falling hair and itching scalp and prevents baldness. And remember that baldness is caused by dandruff germs, those little hard working? persistent devils that day and night do nothing but dig in to the roots of the hair and destroy its vitality. Parisian Sage is a daintily perfum ed hair dressing; not sticky or greasy, and any woman who desires luxuriant and bewitching hair can get it in two weeks by using Parisian Sage. 50 cents a bottle at Huntley Bros.

HUNTLEY BROS., Druggists Pabst's Okay Specific $300 FASHION STILL FAVORS THE' SIMPLE FROCK FOR INFORMAL WEAR 7893 7S9I Simple as to line are these early Autumn frocks, but they show little touches of novelty in the cut of the collar, or some odd quirk in sash ar rangement. Here are two that illus trate this. The first 7891 is a per fectly simple, practical model, with the convenient closing front that wo men will not give up in a hurry. The novelty lies in the shaped trim ming section of the stamped leather, soft as a glove, that forms a sort of extension of the front lap and in the girdle and sash of crocheted silk which is the tie of a butterfly bow. Paris is simply mad over butterflies and they are shown in almost every thing. Hats, girdles, lingerie, and in lace, ribbon, jewels and braid. The crocheted girdle is another new note and the women are crocheting these as they did the mans scarfs a short time ago. Dotted shallis, pop lin, or faills may be used in fashioning this frock which is in six sizes, 34 to 44. requiring for the 36 size 4 7-8 yards of 36-inch material. New Collar Styles The shaping of the collor of the other dress, 7893, is new, and the com bination of materials is cleverly work ed out, giving the impression of a coat blouse and skirt, though the dress is in reality a one-piece affair. The peplum effect is gained by mak ing the blouse and the yoke of the flowered taffeta, black with huge crim son roses, while a soft rose like silk forms the lower part of the skirt and sash. . The closing is in front, and the waist is drop-shoulder style. Five sizes, 34 to 42, and for size 36 3 yards 36-inch material, flowered, and 2 1-2 pards plain will be required. Each pattern is 15 cents. Does the worx. You all know It by reputation. Price k FOR SALE BY JONES DRUG COMPANY Sam Weller. It was Sam Weller who made Dick ens famous.
