PORTLAND REALTY VALUES
An instance of the advance of
realty values in Portland during
the past 60 years was brought up
this week when the corner at Fifth
and Morrison streets sold for 1405
000 and an additional IllOOOO
was paid for the transfer of the
leases. Peter W. Severson, who
sold the property, owned it for 61
years. It was literally forced
upon him as apparently of little
valu. He was owed a week's
wages by the owner of the property
who also borrowed Severson 's shot
gun and lost it. The man who
hald the lot offered the property
in lieu of the week's wages and the
missing weapon. Severson de
murred, but finally was forced to
accept the lot to cover thp double
debt.
JAPANESE ROSES
Japan, showing its friendly feel
ing toward Oregon and the Pacific
coast, has sent 170 bushes of na
tive roses to be set out in the parks
and public squares of Portland on
February 22, the official rose
planting day, when the metropolis
will make a holiday and hold
special exercises. The gift is a
gracious one and is much appreci
ated by Rose Festival officials. A
number of foreigu nations have
been heard from, each contribut
ing native roses to be planted here
on Washington's birthday. It is
expected by rosarians that the
bushes will thriva in their adopted
country as well as in their own
clime.

Oregon Retail Merchant's Ass'n at

Almsgiving and Prayer. Matt 6:1-13
tioldeii Text Take heed that ye do
not your righteousness before men,
to le seen of them. Matt. ftl.
Verse 1-4 What definition would
yon give of a hypocrite?
If h man Is really trying to be a
true Christian, but loves to have his
good work acknowledged by the
church and the world, and takes
pains to have that done, how would
you characterixe him?
If a man gives more to religion and
charity when the fact Is published
than he does when It Is not known,
in what class would you place him?
If one gives with the motive of
helping his fellows and to glorify
(Sod. will the fact that his letieticence
Is published displease Ood? Why?
Verses tVti Give reasons for your
opinion ns to whether there are
those today who act as If they were
religious, in the matter of going to
church, etc., but who are not true to
Cod?
How would you descrllie a man
who goes to church, or prayer meet
ing, chiefly to help his business or
profession?
If a man prays longer in public
than he does In private, is he neces
sarily a hypocrite?
Why does Jesus so strongly recom
mend private prayer, and what are
its advantages?
Verse 7 What can you say for or
against long or short private prayer?
In what class would you put those
private prayers which consist only of
reading, or reciting, set prayers and
In repeating a form of words?
Verse s As (Jod certainly knows
w hat things we have need of before
we ask him, what Is the use In pray
ing for them? (This question must be
answered in writing by members of
the club.)
Verse !) Iid Jesus give the Lord's
Prajer as a form to le used, or as a
model for comprehensiveness and
brevity, or for both, or for some
other reason?
What was the chief thing in the life
A Common Cold
We claim that If catching cold
could be avoided some of the most
dangerous and fatal diseases would
never ! heard of, A cold often forms
a culture bed for germs of Infectious
diseases. Consumption, pneumonia,
dlptherla and scarlet fever, four of
the most dangerous and fatal dis
eases, are of this class. The culture
bed formed by the cold favors the
development ot the germs of these
diseases that would not otherwise
And lodgment. There Is little dan
ger, however, of any of these diseases
lielug contracted when a good ex
lectorant cough medicine like Chain
lnrlaln's Cough Hemedy Is used. It
cleans out these culture Iteds that
favor the development of the germs
of these diseases. That Is why this
remedy Is proving so universally suc
cessful in preventing pneumonia. It
not ouly cures your cold quickly, but
minimizes the risk of contracting
these dangerous diseases. For sale
by all good dealers.

Neighbors and friends filled the I.
O. ). F. hall to its limit, and from
o'clock until .1 the wee small
hours of the morning talked, danced
ate and made merry.
Dr. Hosch came here about six
years ago and has certaluly crept
Into the hearts of the people, as was
evidenced by the heautiful decora
tions In the hall, all the work of his
many friends. The delicious refresh
ments, the liiHplrlng music by the
Hood River orchestra, the cheerful
crowd ami the general good will and
the sincere regret at leave taking a!l
spoke of the high regard of the party
for Dr. Hosch.
During the evening J. P. Lucas was
called upon for a few remarks and
In well chosen words expressed the
sentiment of the assembled company
In wishing (Jod-speed to the doctor
and his most estimable little wife,
who has certainly done her part In
assisting the doctor In his work for
humanity at the Lock and no one
will leave here In many years to
come who will carry witn mem tne
hearty appreciation of the whole
community as do the doctor and his
wife. The doctor gave n feeling re
sponse to the words of appreciation
and assured the jeople of his grati
tude to them for the words of love
and friendship, and said he was so
glad they had not waited until he
wan dead to say what they felt.
