It's a true story and it trans
pired recently in Albany. She was
agent for? a patent health device,
and in answer to her knock an el
derly lady ' opened the door. "I
have heie,4ometbing that ,1 would
like to show you in the interest of
good health," she began, but she
in the doorway piously and solemn
ly rolled her eyes skyward and in
terrupted, ; "In this house we look
to God for' health." "All right,
Madam, I don't run opposition to
God" was the;, quick ';ieply as the
agent bowed ' her way out of the
family gate,
The campaign for new side-,
walks within the cement' pavement
district, coatinues, and before the
expjration of the wooden walk lim
it, every walk in the district bids
fair to be renewed. . The movement
is so - marked that the sidewalk
lumber market is swamped. One
builder waited nearly threa weeks
before he was 'finally ,. supplied.
Many orders are in that are un
filled. The cement ordinance as
finally passed, takes effect about
the 15th of October. , After that
time all walks within the establish
ed limits will liave to be of cement.
The limits extend from Washing
ton street, which is the street on
which the C. & E. spur runs, to
Van Buren, and from Main to
Ninth.

Whether it was poison or a case of
too much heat that killed Mike, ' is
hot known. He always followed
Dr. Pernot in professional trips
about the town and county, appar
ently considering himself a necessa
ry adjunct of the medical establish
ment of which the doctor is the
head.
For nine years he has dozed be

Sunday afternoon, far into the coun
try, trudging faithfully at the rear
of the buggy through the dust,
smote ana neat until ne tell ex
hausted by the roadside. That
happened near the country place of
Mrs. Ann Smith. On arrival home,
Dr. Pernot missed his foor-footed
friend, and in spite of blistering
heat, drove back the state road in
search of him.
By the side of the fence lay Mike,
as the buggy approached. "Here,
Mike;" and with infinite trouble
the stricken animal, managed to
raise himselt on his knees. He
gazed in the direction of the buggy,
but could not see. The sight was
gone with the ebbing life but there
was recognition of the well-known
and loved voice that called. "Here,
Mike," and another unavailing ef
fort to move and another pathetic
but sightless gaze. .
He was lifted eently into the
buggy, and driven rapidly .home
Remedied were applied witk.alj the
gentle care incident to human min
istrations but it was too late to save
Mike. He died two hours after his
owner found him by the roadside.
Visitation by a hot wave has hap
pened to Benton. It was here in
all its pristine beauty Sunday.
That was a day in which the old
inhabitant sweltered and squirmed
like a land pirate on trial before
Heney. When the day was . done
he was all in, and he didn't give a
whoop whether school kept or not.
The top notch touched duung the
day was 98 in the shade. It was
too hot to lie down and too hot to
sit up. Such breezes as . blew came
off of the sky scrapers of Portland
and were a exasperating reminder
of what might have been if they
had been zephyrs from the sounding
sea. Besides the heat, the atmos
phere was full of dust and smoke
which added all kinds of discomfort 1
to the torridity. When the average
citizen lay down on his virtuous ,
bed about 10 o clock at night and
pulled the drapery of his couch
about him he uttered a fervent note
of thanksgiving for the Willamette
Valley night which never goes back
on the man who longs to be cool.

SEEKS DIVORCE
And Willing for his Wife to
Have the Children Former
Philomath man.
Geoige W. Parker has brought
suit for divorce from his wife Mary
Parker. He resides at Oregon City
and has brojght the case in the cir
cuit court for Clackamas county.
She lives at Philomath, and as a
maiden was Mary Pulse. There
are several, children and in his com
plaint Parker says he is willing for
his wife to have them.
Parker is known to fame in this
county as the plaintiff in a damage
suit against C. H. James for alleg
ed libel. James is also under crim
inal indictment for what he wrote
about Mr. Parker in a1 scurrilous
article in which in practical effect
he said Parker did not tiy to save
his wife and children but rather
looked after saving his gun when a
boat capsized with them in Yaquina
Bay, all of which Packer says is
villianously false. James also said
in the libelous article that Parker
did not give his children sufficient
food and that neighbors had to take
and keep some of them until they
were fed back to robust health.
Both the criminal and damage
cases are scheduled for trial at the
November term of the Benton coun
ty circuit court. Parker formerly
resided near . Philomath where he
and James occupied adjoining
ranches, and where, according to all
accounts the course of neighborly
love never ran a bit smooth.

Bear Grove, la, of all usefulness, came
