NEWLYWED JOLTED
BY HILL WORKERS
It' is the pouular .thing at the Wil
lamette Pulp & Paper mill to get mar
ried, but it would seem the wise thing
to let everybody know it when it hap
pened, at least this is what "Ad" Rob
erts would tell any prospective bride
and groom.
"Ad" was married about two weeks
ago, but he was very quiet about it
his fellow workers knew nothing of
it until after the newly married couple
were well out of harm's way. This
made the others around the plant
"peeved" and for two long weeks the?
spent most of their time plotting re
venge. Mr. Roberts returned yesterday and
wien he went to his desk he was sur
prised to see it coved completely with
hearts, rice, and old shoes. But this
was not all. His -telephone was full
of rice, a big bell above his desk
showered rice all over him, and then,
to clap the climax, the groom was
compelled to mpunt his desk and
make a speech.
Adger G. Roberts and Miss Mar
guaret Fairclough were married two
weeks ago and they left at once for
Long Beach for their honeymoon.
They returned Sunday and were pre
sented with a complete silver set by
the employees of the mill.
THEY PUZZLE GREAT MINDS.
Simple Words Too Profound For Hu
man Understanding.
Q. Can there lie two kinds of Infini
ties or two infinite spaces?
A. The writer of this question must
dei-idt The nearest star is distant
twenty-five trillion miles. Write a row
of units 111111... to the star and let
each unit represent one mile; then the
distance represented by a line of l's.
twenty-five trillion miles long, sub
merges all human powers of Imagina
tion. But write a row of 222222.. twenty-five
trillion miles long; then the
number of miles represented would be
twice as great Then write a row of
990999... equally long, and the distance
expressed would be nine times as great
as that represented by the l's.
But no human can think of the dis
tance expressed by the l's. Let the
.first row of figures extend twenty-five-
trillion or fifty or a thousand trillion
miles to the east; then a row could be
extended toward the west Many mil
lions of years would be required to
write the long rows. Suppose that
you write 9's both ways during a thou
sand million years'each. Then the dis
tance in miles would be thinner than
a spider's thread when compared to
an infinite distance.
There are possibly fifty persons now
living able to think one new thought
They are the mighty of the earth, and
are all transcendent mathematicians.
Not one of these even tries to begin to
think of infinity or eternity. They all
know better. Only the superficial
strive to think of the two words, so
my questioner must answer his own
question, for 1 cannot even hope to se
cure a glimpse, lasting a thousandth
part of one second, of the meaning of
one of the following list of words:
Mind,, space, time, duration. Infinity,
eternity, beginning, end, space and
electrons. Edgar Lucien Larkin in
New York American.
FARMERS LEARN THE
VALUE OF ADVERTISING
In the current issue of Farm and
Fireside. Nat. T. Frame, a government
employee who has large orchards and
superintends them himself, writes
about the value of advertising to farm
ers. He says in part:
"Advertise, advertising, advertise
ments, advertising campaigns and ad
vertising bills magic words. An-1
even we farmers are catching on.
Didn't John Pickering Ross hit the
nail on the head recently when he
told the sheepmen not to sell their
flocks, but to advertise their mutton?
People do not eat mutton because
they do not know how good it is when
bred right, fed right, butchered right
and cooked right. Some keen organ
ization of sheepmen is going to show
a number of these people who are at
present non-consumers of either lamb,
ram, sheep or mutton how short
sighted they are, and by so doing will
create a more active demand for their
special product.
"So, too, we may expect to see the
day when even the young clerk who
is but beginning his life at the lunch
coounter will put up a kick if his
counter will put up a luck if his
real buckwheat-flour and his mapls
syrup did not come from sugarmaple
sap. That is, if the buckwheat grow
ers and millers and the maple-grove
owners catch on to the value of ad
vertising as earlv as W3 think they
will.
"If we apple-growers do not soon
formulate and put into execution some
comprehensive advertising scheme to
reach the present non-consumers of
apples we may not be able to sell our
crops profitably."
The Busy Editor.
After the fire that destroyed Bar
nuni's museum the proprietor consult
ed his friends as to his' wisest course.
He told them he had a fortune and
could easily retire from active busi
ness. Among his friends was Horace
Greeley.
"What shall I do?" asked Barnum.
"If I were you." replied Greeley, "I
would go fishing. I've been trying for
thirty years to go fishing and have
never been able to do it.''

FOUR SOULS EACH.
Curious Beliefs of the Savages of West
Africa.
West African religion is particularly
generous to the human beings, to each
of whom it allots several souls, four
being the usual number. Only one is
Immortal, however. The others, though
troublesome enough during the own
er's life, cease to be at the same time
as the body. They are the shadow
rouI, the dream soul and the bush soul.
One soul seems more than many of
us can manage, but the poor African
has a bad time between the four of
them. He never knows when some
enemy may plunge ya knife into his
shadow, thus causing him to sicken
and die, or when his bush soul, which
takes the form of an animal, may rush
Into danger and get hurt, and. as for
his dream soul, that is particularly
troublesbme. as it wanders from his
body during sleep and runs the risk of
being caught by witch traps. When
this happens its place is often taken
by a nasty stranger spirit called a
"sisa," which seems to have no other
object but to cause misfortune and
sickness to- the being who forms its
temporary habitation.
Most of the tribes have the idea of
an underworld after death, neither
heaven nor hell, but much like the ex
isting world, only dimmer. Among the
Tschwi tribes this idea Is well defined.
Their shadow world has a name
srnhiunudayi and they even know the
way to the entrance, which Is across
the Volta river. This place has its
markets, its town and its interests, but
everything is felt in a more indistinct
way.
Meat For Jurymen.
At one time it was the common duty
of both the plaintiff and defendant in
an action to provide refreshments for
the Jury empaneled to try it, and from
this arose the practice (which surviv
ed until 1870) of denying them "meat,
drink or fire" while deliberating upon
their verdict Later on it became usu
al for the person In whose favor the
verdict was given to offer the Jury a
dinner and sometimes a guinea or so
for their trouble. This practice led to
so much abuse that it was found nec
essary to pass a lawprohibiting it

I THE ROAD.
I singr you an ode
Of the country road,
The lumpy roai!
And the bumpy road
That jolts the v.njon and spills th
load;
Mud to the hubs when the rain
come-down;
Filled with ruts when the fields are
brdwn
And the sun is hot and the air is
dry.
It's clogged with gravel and packed
with sand,
So built and graded and laid and
planned
That it takes a team
And sometimes two ' .
To do the work one horse should do.
It racks the wagons with jolts and
Jars.
It ruins horses and motorcars.
Keeps back crops from the market
place,
Piles up debts on the farmer's place.
The old time road is a plain dis
grace. But the modern road is a different
thing. ' .
A worthy, theme for the b'ard to
sing
Put together
For every weather,
Smooth and dustless and good to
see
And graded right, as a road should
be;
Useful always and muddy never,
A thing of beauty, a joy forever.
Bellefontaine (O.) Examiner.
NOVEL SUGGESTION- TO
AVOID MANY ACCIDENTS.
Plan Would Necessitate Slow Speed of
Autos When Crossing Tracks.
In order to avoid accidents at rail
road crossings, which have claimed
such a large death toll In recent
months, a novel suggestion has been
put forth which it appears will at
least lessen the danger of a collision
between a train and passing carriages
or automobiles.
If the highway crossings were divid
ed and offset with sharp turns at the
track, as per the sketch accompanying,
the crossing could not be made at high

speed. Thus the driver would be go
ing slow enough- to see a train and
stop, if he used his senses at all.
In many instances it Is impossible to
build overhead or tunnel crossings, and
aside from that the expenses are very
great Such a scheme as this would
not, of course, eliminate all accidents,
but the number would be greatly di
minished. Colonel Cornell of the National High
ways Protective society- reports that
the number of automobilists killed in
New York state alone in .1913 up to
Aug. 1 has been seventy as compared
with fifty-two last year and seventy
two seriously injured as against fifty
eight in 1912. F. A. Brown of Detroit
says in the current number of the Spec
tator that "more than 95 per cent of
automobile accidents are due to carelessness."
TAR TO SAVE FRENCH ROADS.
Public Works Minister Plans to Spend
$50,000,000 on Them.
Not less than $50,000,000 will be
spent in the next ten or twelve years
putting a tar coat on 6,000 miles of
highway or one-quarter of the roads
of France, according to the minister
of public works, M. Thierry.
The new tourist department at his
ministry Is grappling with the prob
lem of overhauling the roads for the
benefit of the motor traffic, which has
already reached huge proportions and
is threatening to ruin the splendid
highways for which France is famous.
M. Thierry is convinced that the only
way to combat the wear and tear is
to undertake systematic tarring of the
roads. He purposes to meet the heavy
cost by a graduated tax on automo
biles ranging from $10 for twelve
horse power cars to $50 for all over
sixty horsepower.
M. Thierry also says that the tourist
department is going to see France pro
vided with clean, comfortable and hy
gienic hotels, which are found In Ger
many, Austria and Switzerland, but
are lacking in the republic, although
everywhere the food obtainable in
French country inns is excellent.

BOUNTIFUL CROPS OF
With the hop -picking finished and
the harvesting of the prune crop well
under way( prospects are bright for
one of the most prosperous years the
Willamette Valey has ever seen.
Reports from up and down the val
ley all bring out the one fact that un
equalled crops are being harvested
and prices are the best they have
been tor years. HoPs are selling in
the neighborhood of SO , cents with
prospects for advance scill higher
while prunes bring five cents and
and above.
All up and down the valley the
prune dryers are operating day and
night and the crop is so bountiful, so
great, that it is feared that, even with
increased facilities, part of the crop
will spoil. Prominent dealers in-the
fruit estimate , that the prune output
this season will total 25,000,000 pounds
or 625 cars.
The hop crop was unusually good
while the price hovers around the 30
cent mark.

THE ISLE OF TABOGA
A Beautiful Spot in the Bay of Panama Where are Located
the Canal Zone Hospitals . ..
By Willis J. Abbott, Author of "Panani a and the Canal in Picture and Prose.'
. A flock of little white boats, each
with a single oarsman, puts out from
the shore to meet you like a flock of
gulls as your little steamer drops an
chor In a bay of truly Mediterransan
hue. To the traveled visitor the scene
is irresistibly reminiscent of some lit
tle port of Southern Italy. But from
the sea one looks upon a towering hill,
bare toward the summit closely cov
ered lower down by mango, wild-fig
and ceiba trees, bordered just abvoe
the red roofs of the little town by a
fringe of th" graceful cocoanut palms.
Then comes the houses, row, below
row, until they descend to the curving,
beach, where the fishing boats are
drawn up out of reach of th etide
which rises some twenty feet.
Taboga once shared in the proserity
of the early Spanish rule, and enjoyed
the honor of having entertained for a
few days Sir Henry Morgan, whom
England made a baronet and a colonial
governor by way of reward for his ex
ploits. Taboga must have treated him
well, for not only did he forbear to
sack the town, but so deep was the
devotion paid by him and his men to
certain tuns of excellent wine there
discovered that they le; a Spanish gal
leon, deep-laden with gold and silver,
slip through their fingers rather than
interrupt their drinking bout.
Just now the wine and wassail of
Taboga is limited to about six grog
shops, which seems an over supply for
the handful of fishermen who inhabit
its tumblexlown hovels. Each bar.
too, has its billiard table and remind
ed one of Mark Twain's islands in the
South Sea, whee the people earned
an honest living by taking in each oth
er's washing, one wonders if the sole
industry of the Tabogans is playing
billiards. Some of the boats at anchor
or drawn up on the beach attest to
some prosperity amongst thsm that go
down to the sea in ships. One that I
saw rigged with a fore and aft sail
and a jigger was hewn out of a single
log like a river cayuco and had a beam
exceeding four feet. Before many of
the houses were lines hung with long
strips of fish hanging out to dry, for
it is a curious property of this atmos
phere that, despite its humidity, it will
cure animal tissues, both fish and
flesh quickly and without taint.
Agriculture in Taboga is limited to
I the culture of the pineapple, and the
local variety is so highly esteemed in
the Panama markets that some meas
ure of prosperity might attend upon
the Tabogans would they but under
take the raising of pines systematical
ly and extensively.' But not they.
Their town was founded in 1549, when
at the instance of Las Casas, the King
of Spain gave freedom to all Indian
slaves. Taboga. was set apart as a res
idence for a certain part " of these
freedmen. Now, what did the freedom
from slavery mean but freedom from
work? This view was probably held
in the 16th century and certainly ob
tains in Taboga today, having been en
chanced no doubt by the liberal mix
ture of negro blood with that of na
tive Indians. If the pineapples grow
without too much attention well and
good. They will be sold and the grog
shops will know that real money has
come into the .town. But as for seri
ously extending the business well,
that is a thing to think of for a long,
long time, and the thought has not yet
ripened.
As to the part of Taboga in the econ
omy of the Canal wnrk wo hatro haa
a sanitarium inherited from the French
ana used as a place of convalescence
for almost recovered patients from the
hospitals of the zone. After breathing
the clear, soft air, glancing at the com
fortable quarters and enjoying to the
fullest a lunch costing fifty cents that
would put Broadway's best to shame,
and make the expensive and ill-ordered
Tivoli dining room seem like a "bean
ery" in comparison, we could well un
derstand why every employee with 30
days' sick leave to his credit gets just
such a slight ailment as needs a rest
at Taboga for its cure.
