OLD ONES LOSE
OUT IN BATTLE
(Continued from Page 1.)
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be repealed for a time by a man's men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.

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.

Couldn't Bs Divided.
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.

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,

"sustenance space." Mark Jefferson

Are Positively Hideous.
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

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.

The general market for first class

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.
