A light shower of rain fell last
xiight, but it was not enough to be
of value. There is a general de
sire for more moisture, but it is
trouble borrowed, for Oregon won't
fail to do her duty on that score.
The Annual Rose Fair of the
JPresbyterian ladies is soon to oc
cur. The date has not been fixed,
and will, in a measure, depend on
the whim of the roses. When they
-are at their best, the show will take
place. The recollection of the suc
cess of ether fairs of the sort by th
same people is a guarantee of what
the coming one will be.
Preaching at the Presbyterian
church Sunday morning and even
ing by the pastor Rev. J. R. N.
. Bell. Morning topic '"Natural and
.Revealed Religion Government."
In thj evening there will be,
a short talk, to "Business Men
and Women." General topic will
be specialized. Splendid music.
Everyone invited and made wel
come. Here is a case of public spirit to
interestCorvallis. A letter containing
a. check for $10 was received by E.
E. Wilson, yesterday. The ac
companying letter read about like
this: "We noticed that a fund is
being raised in Corvallis for the
purpose of completing the Y. M. C.
A., building at the college. We
enclose $10 to be added to the iund
and hope that a sufficient sum may
ibe raised to meet all requirements.' '
: The signature is Morris Brothers,
iby S. K. Williams, attorney. Mor
xis Brothers are Portland brokers,
who bought the Corvallis water
bonds. Their interest in the town
springs from that source. Their
contribution was unsolicited, and
unexpected. That makes it a good
story as well as a valuable hint to
-'Corvallisites as what successful bus
iness men think of such enterprises
.-as the proposed Y., M. C. A. build
, ing at the college.
Wlo Pays?
An exchange asks and answers
- a pertinent question as follows :
"Who pays for the advertising of
the merchants and other business
men? Not the advertiser, for the
. :ost is returned to him fourfold in
increased profits. Not the purchas
er and has a better assortment and
fresher goods to select from. Who
then pays the advertising bills? The
non-advertiser, of course, because
-le loses business to the advertiser. ' '

"Neglected Golds Threaten Life. .
From the Chicago Tribum. ;
"Don't trifle with a cold, is good advice
rSbr prudent men and women. - It -may be
-vital in the case of a child. Proper food,
-good ventilation, and dry, warm clothing are
-the proper safeguards against colds. . If they
iare maintained through the changeable
-weather of autumn, winter and spring, the
chances of a surprise from ordinary colds
-will be slight But the ordinary light cold
-will become severe if neglected, and a well
-established ripe cold is to the germs of diph
theria what honey is to the bee. The great
- -st menace to child life at this season of the
.year is the neglected cold.". Whether it is a
-child or adult, the cold slight or severe; the
-very best treatment that can be adopted is to
give Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It is
safe and sure. The great popularity and im

Dangers of Chicken Raising.
An elderly man and a yonng man
were conversing, according to
' ' Harper's Magazine. ' '
"Yes" said the young man "I
am going into chicken farming. I
am convinced that there is no bus
iness in the world in which there
is more money to be made. ' I have
figured on it, and know what l ean
do. Why, look at the way they In
crease. In four or five years I"
"My friend," said the old man,
"I have had experience with the
business. Be warned; do not em
bark iri'ff." ' . ; . '- ' y- !
"What" said the young 'man;
"have you tried it and failed ?' '
. "1 mean to tell you that I tried it
and gave it up," answered : the
other. "I got ten hens intending
to get rich. I installed them in a
coop and awaited returns. But be
fore they bad laid an egg I happen
ed to pick tip a pencil and a bit of
paper and did some, calculating. ; I
saw that each of my hens could
raise three broods the first summer.
Allowing one bad egg for each set
ting, there would be. twelve chicks
to each brood. Calling half of them
pullets this would give six of each
brood, of i8 to each hen for the
season, or 180 for the; entire flock
Adding my original hens I would
have 190 hens at the end of the
first summer. Figuring at the same
ratio I saw that I would have 610
at the end of the second summer,
I was encouraged, and went on to
find that I would have 68, 590 when
the third summer closed. I sharp
ened my pencil and bent over" my
paper with feverish interest. The
fourth summer I discovered would
leave me with i,30.2iolikely hens,
When the : autumn leaves of - the
filth dying summer should swirl
about me I should - then : have
24,600,990 cacklers.'r Another year
of joy and sorrow my. sixth,
would find me surrounded by 470,
457,810 live and enterprising hens.,
Once again when the glorious sum
mer would fade into' autumn, I
found that a matter of 8,938,717,
390 distinct hens and a rooster or
two would be with me in the gal
linceous flesh. The inspiring fig
ures of the eight year I have for
gotten, as, likewise, I have those
of the ninth. , I only know I found
that at the end of ten years! would
have more prime hens than there
was space for on the face of the
globe, counting the Arctic regions,
and supposing , roosts . across "the.
rivers, and twenty fowls in each
tree, . I was 'dumbfounded 7 But I
did not j hesitate." ' I saw what I
owed to the human race. - I seized
an axe and harried ' to: the coop.
My boy, -1 loved those hens but 1
loved the human rice more; ? and I
led them to the block like a Spkrtan
and ! chopped roff Weir-- heads." I
breathed more freely when it wss
all over, and the horrible vision was
eone of the whole " earth four' feet
deep in hens; and every blessed, one
of them cackling. x Young man; do
not goj into the chicken business;
it leads to awful things-' -
