Albany Herald: Mr. Baker, residing near Heceta Head light bouse, about ten days ago, made quite a find on the beach. At a point on the coast near his resi- deoce a current sets in to the shore and rxany strange finds ere made on tne- oeacn. a tew weess ago Mr, Baker, while on the shore, saw a barrel in the surf rolling in with every wave to again to be car ried out. Watching it for some time, he took advantage of a big wave that brought the barrel near the shore and he rushed into the sea, catching the barrel. For a half hour he struggled with his find, finally landing it high and dry. With the help of some friends the barrel was taken to the house, and an examination showed that.it was branded "Clover Leaf Whis key," bearing the copper plate of the bonding warehouse and the le gend "52 gallons." The barrel was pretty well covered with barnacles, indicating that it had been in the water for a long time. For Rent. ' Nice office rooms to rent in my concrete building. Aiso cheap back room.

' A prolific cause of chronic indigestion la outing from habit and simply be cnuae tt la mealtime and others are eating. To eat when not hungry is to cnt without relish, and food taken without relish is worse than wasted. Without rolteh the salivary glands do not act, the gastric fluids are not freely secreted, and the best of foods will not be digested. Many perfectly harmless dishes are severely condemned for no other reason than they were eaten, per functorily and without relish and due iusalivation. -SSiai33Sf Hunger makes the plainest foods en joyable. It causes vigorous secretion and outpouring of all the digestive flu ids, the sources of ptyalin, pepsin, trypsin, etc., without a plentiful supply of which no foods can be perfectly di gested. , Wait for an appetite, if it takes a week. Fasting is one of the saving graces. " It has a spiritual significance only through its great physical, and physiologic importance. . If breakfast is a bore or lunch a matter of indiffer ence, cut one or both of them out. Walt for distance and unmistakable hunger and' then' eat slowly. v If you do this you need ask few questions aa to, the propriety and digestibility ;of what you eat, and it need not be pre digested.

Adelies - are most inquisitive, and at times areyin such a hurry to follow up a clew that they will scramble along the . ice . on the belly, pushing with their legs-and using their flippers alternately like the paddle of a canoe. They get over the ground at an astonishing rate, and it is hard work to overtake a penguin when it takes to this means of locomotion, especially when tt doubles. In the water the penguin is perfectly at home. diving and steeplechasing in grand style." "It "can jump clean out of the water and pop down on the ice exact ly like some one coming up through a trapdoor on the stage and dropping on his feet. The penguins collect in enormous numbers and are sometimes seen- marching about like a regiment of 'soldiers in Indian file, all acting in unison. A much larger penguin, the emperor, weighs sixty or seventy pounds and stands well over three feet high. It possesses the most extraordinary mus cular powers in its flippers. When pre sented with the end of the skee stick the emperor gives it such a smack that one's bands tingle. At the same time it utters an angry guttural exclama tion. Foolins His Stomach.
