THE LONG ARM. - From Russia to America, across thousands of leagues of land and sea. came Mrs. Sonle Sorin, a young widow. She came not to make a home in this country. She remained among us only a few days. She has gone back to Russia. The young woman came here in obedience to an ancient He brew law which says that a woman may not remarry unless the nearest male relative of her deceased husband either marries her or gives her per mission to marry another. The law is very old. Orthodox He brew women still consider it binding on their consciences and on theit courses of action. So Mrs. Sorin traveled from a little town in the interior of Russia to Co lumbus. O., to get from her husband's brother a further release from the ties already partly severed by death. Curious old custom? Yes. but it Illus trates well the tenacity with which she and many of her coreligionists cling to their old orthodox beliefs. Arriving in New York. Mrs. Sorin said: "From Russia to Ohio Is a long Jour ney. BUT FURTHER THAN THAT EXTENDS THE LAW." Unknowingly she enunciated a great truth. "Further than that extends the law!" She meant only her religious law. but is not her saying applicable to other laws? Take the law of conscience, for ex ample. How far do you think yon would have to flee to reach a place where it could not overtake you? The peak of the . highest mountain, the least frequented arctic solitude, the greatest depth yet sounded in the sea? Further than that extends the law. Do you think a plunge into the whirl of work or pleasure or dissipation will drown out the voice that tells you of your own wrongdoing? No, for "further than that extends the law." More, material laws have long arms too. Every day we hear of men over taken by evidences of crimes commit ted in years gone by. Not only murder will out, but so will lesser offenses against the criminal code. A man may flee from the scene of his crime, he may change bis name, he may live for years In the atmosphere of respecta bility, but in many cases the law finds him out And if it does not? Well, the law of conscience is more potent for punishment than any yet embodied in statute by man. It may be repealed for a time by a man's men tal powers sitting In judgment on his own case, but In the end it is enforced. Go as far as you like In time or dis tance from your misdeeds, but "Further than that extends the law." WILLAMETTE Merritt Willson, Agent The basket social given by the Wil lamette Volunteer Fire company was held Tuesday and the lrge crowd which attended went home after a pleasant evening. Recitations were given by Audrey Tuor, Harry Tuor, and I. Garrmeier and songs were sung by the chorus. The highest basket was sold for four dollars and the total amount received was $26.40. William Snidow acted as auctioneer. The money will be used to help secure the new equippment for the fire company. The pupils of the eighth and ninth grades of the Willamette school made a trip to the river bank in order to study the formation of the soils and the general typographical and physio graphical conditions of the shore. August Kollumeier was in the coun ty seat Wednesday attending to busi ness matters. CANEMAH CARNOTT SPENCER, Agent same majority that prevailed In theJ election of the others, five to two Councilman Horton and Tooze stick-' ing together in their opposition to the whole plan. j Have Not Right. j After it was over, Councilman Tooze contended that the city council had not the right to make such i changes, and, further, that there was ' no immediate need for a new water board as the plan had been placed in the hands of the fire and water committee. His objections were over ruled by the rest of the council, how ever and the action taken. Ernest Rands was suggested but his name was afterwards withdrawn. Councilman Beard moved that the re corder be instructed to notify the men that they had been chosen. It carried. Mr. Lynch spoke in favor of the garbage ordinance that was intro duced, but after discussion was held over to the next meeting to allow the council committee another opportun ity to review it. Improvements. Four street improvement was ac cepted after the contractor agreed to place a bond that work would be sat isfactory for one year. The Shay bid on High street and the bid of the Ore gon Engineering & Construction com pany for Seventh street was accepted. Mr. Reiner protested against the ac ceptance of the bid on Seventh street on the ground that his was the lower bid by several hundred dollars but the council went into the committee of the whole and afterwards endorsed the report of the committee. The con tract will be signed by the mayor and the city recorder within the next few days and involves $30,000 of which $13,000 will be paid by the city. .

In Felix Moscheles' "Fragments of an Autobiography" occurs the follow ing: Mme. Schumann was wanted to play at a little musical reunion, but she did not respond. Mr. Moscheles was deputed to approach her. "Was be Inclined to play?" 'Tartlcularly disinclined." waa the discouraging response. The envoy tried again and mention ed her husband's "Carnival." "One part I particularly love, the 'March of the Davidsbiincller.' If I could only hear you play just that psijle or two!" This roused her "Page or two. In deed!" she cried. "Wenu man le Tar nnval' spielt. spielt muii ihn gsuiz.' (When one plays the "Carnnval." one must play it nil.) And she played the whole. $.- . . ... Mrs. V. Painter, of Camas. Wash., was visiting friends in Canemah Tues day and Wednesday. Mrs r. Wnhar.ker. of Mt. Pleasant. visited Mrs. Black of Canemah Tues day. Mr. and Mrs. W.

AMERICAN VILLAGES. Feyther and the Passon. After a Saturday afternoon tramp In Cheshire, writes n correspondent in the Manchester ;u:irdi:in. I stopped sit :i little whitewashed inn. where I beard che following rustic story. On a heiicli outside hjiilf a dozen farm workers, with faces and bared arms richly sun burned, were relating reminiscences of bygone times. "Did Ah iver tell yo' about ma poor owd feyther and the passon?" asked a white whiskered sturdy veterau. "No? Well, passon meets feyther one day. an' ses 'e. 'John, Ah could nod yo a bit o' a job blowin' f organ up at t' church o' Sundays If yo' doan't mind.' 'Aye, thankee, sir," ses feytber. 'Ah'd be very glad, but Ah doubt Ah hevna wind enough.' " "Sustenance Space." When we estimate that the average Inhabitant of New York may have but a few score square feet for his own use. we are apt to forget that he can only exist on them because somewhere in the country there are acres of ground producing for him. as -really and definitely for him as if he owned them and hired the labor on them, what Professor Penck has called his "sustenance space."

No distinctively American style has arisen, and the average American home remains as ngly and as undistinguish ed as a- Zulu -kraal. In its essence it is simply a square box. And from that archetype it proceeds upward, not through degrees of beauty, but through degrees of hideousuess. The more it is plastered with ornament the more vulgar and forbidding it becomes. The more it is adorned wiib color the more that color becomes a madness, a de bauch, a public indecency. Take a train ride through any Amer ican state and you will be sickened by the chaotic ugliness of the flitting villages houses sprawling and shape less,, a huge advertising sign upon every flat wall, an intolerable effect of carelessness, ignorance, squalor, bad taste and downri.' viciousness. But make the time sort of journey through France or Germany say from Bremen to Munich or from Paris to Lyons or through Austria or Italy or Switzerland, and you will be charmed by the beautiful harmony visible on all sides, the subordination of details to general effects, the instinctive feel ing for color, the sound grouping, the constant presence of a tradition and a style. The design of the peasant bouses changes twenty times between the Westphulian plain and the foot- bills of the Alps, but In every change there is a subtle reflection of the physical enviroum-ent. an unmistakable expression of human aspiration, world ly estate and character. 1 don't know eny ugly village be tween Bremen and Munich, nor even a village without its distinction, its special beauty, its individual charm. But I don't know of a village between Washington and Chicago that is not frankly appalling Smart Set WEST LINN James McLarty, Agent Going Astray at Sea. It is no easy matter to keep a mod ern steamship on a straight course. The helmsman steers by the compass. and while a single degree of deviation appears very small on the compass card it would, if continued, carry a fast steamship four miles out of ber course in a single day's run. Yet the compass gives the course more accu rately than the ship can be steered. Owing to the deflecting power of the waves and the rolling of the ship, tbe course is continually shifted a little this way and that despite the helm. Harper's Weeklj. Fort Totten's mortar batteries guard ing the entrance to. New York harbor have been proved Immensely effective. The only way a foreign foe can invade New York is to .come disguised as ready money. If civilized armies show a tendency to slip back into barbarism when the newspaper correspondent ve kept away, it shows that there Is something wrong with the kind of clvltlxation generally used. The Zeppelin company's engineers say that the new marine dirigible Zeppelin XII. could "cross the Atlan tic without undue risk." Undue risk in this sense is obviously a term of con siderable elasticity. A New York Judge has officially de clared that three drinks a day do not sive a chauffeur a reputation for in ebriety. And yet three drinks a day taken together have .been known to do a lot of tragic mischief. Two German scientists are responsi ble for the statement that if you want to live to be 100 years old you must eat chalk. But there is little prospect that the life insurance companies will put the chalk eater among the prefer red risks. A Greek is constructing in Paris a bottle shaped vessel whose design was revealed to him in a dream and In which he expects to cross the Atlantic to' New York. All he needs to do is to have another dream and find himself on Rrondwnv. Regular church meetings are being held each Tuesday evening in West Linn school. Good crowds attend and the services are proving popular to the people of the town. The Germon society met at the home of F. J. Winkel Tuesday even ing. The affair was well attended. German songs were sung, various games played, and reiresnments served. , George Krisberger, of Astoria, has been visiting his relatives near West Linn for several days. - - Wilber Herslop is making an ex tended trip through California which will last most of the winter.

''HERE la a hbll in every house Behind whose wainscot gnaws the mouse, . . Along whose sides are empty rooms. Peopled with dreams and ancient dooms When down this hall you take your light And face alone the hollow night Be like the child who goes to bed Though faltering and half adread Of something crouching crookedly In every corner he can see.

IT MEAT IF Yl KIDNEYS ACT BADLY Take tablespoonful of Salts if Back harts or Bladder bothers Drink lots of water. We are a nation of meat eaters and our. blood is filled with uric acid, says a well-known authority, who warns us to be constantly on guard against kidney trouble. The kidneys do their utmost to. free the blood of this irritating acid, but become weak from the overwork; they get sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and thus the waste is retained in the blood to poison the entire system. When your kidneys ache and feel like lumps of lead, and you have stinging pains in the back or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment, or the bladder is irri table, obliging you to seek relief during the night; when you have severe head aches, nervous and dizzy Bpells, sleepless ness, acid stomach or rheumatism in bad weather, get from your pharmacist affout four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast each morning and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys, to neutralize the acids in urine so it is no longer a source of irritation, thus ending urinary and bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, and nobody can make a mistake by taking a little occasionally to keep the kidneys clean and active.
