Newspaper Page TextTHE 30!W AGKE, PORTLAND, OREGON. TOPICS OF THE TIMES. A CHOICE SELECTION OF INTER. E8TINQ ITEMS. Caaaaaeata and Grltlclama Baaad Cpoa ill Hnppenlaga of tha Day Hlatorl al amd Nawa Notaa. GlrlB who any the Jenst aro soonest married. nnnnony Is nil right If It Is harmony of your brand. Tho nearer you gut to greatness tho smaller It appears. Tcrhnps Hugo thought Mrs. Lnngtry would Hko htm butter tattooed than plain. Eating lesi beef In warm weather 1h dictated from both hyglcnlu and ilium clul standpoints. If you sec It In an unconfirmed ru mor that tho Jnpiiioso won -a gicat victory It Is probably bo. Tibet docs not yet know that It Is a part of tho Iirltlsli Empire, but It will leuru tho fact soon enough. And when Edward and William had finished their spiels on peuco tho bund struck up " 'Twoh but a Dreuin." Dowlo boastH of his converts "worth a million," but tho man ho professes to follow hud not whero to hiy Ills head. King Kdward of England mado no descent from his royal dignity when ho received General liooth of the Sal vation Army. Tho Igorrotea may bo happy In be ing unaffected by tho present high price of beef, but they must have u Ntaudliig feud with tho dog eutchur. Sir Thomas Llpton Is charged with using Amurlcau hogs for tho manufac ture of his "Irish bacon." Just InslHts upon giving his customers bettor than they ask. .J. PIcrpont Morgan Is gradunlly re tiring from business, but at the pres ent speed ho shows In his retirement it will take tilm about 307 yeutu to get clear out. John I). Kockofcller's wealth Is esti mated to nggregato an even billion and u few odd millions. President Harper Is understood to bu lutorcstod only in tho fow odd millions. A Now York man, while eating bin breakfast tho other morning, found n diamond in a boiled egg. Unfortu nately, however, nobody hat been able to find tho hen that laid the egg. A man who died In Connecticut n fow days ago ot the ago of 180 boasted that ho bad chewed and smoked to bacco and used Intoxicant! all bis life. As usual In such cases, tho record nhows that ho hnd to depend on tho Kenoroilty of other people for what ho consumed. A lawyer In a courtroom may call n man a liar, scoundrel, villain or thief and no one makes a complaint when court was adjourned. If a newspaper prints such reflections on a mail's character thero Is a libel suit or a dead editor. And this Is owing to tho fact that peoplo bcllove what an edi tor snys; what a lawyer says cuts no figure. Young men uowuduys are Inclined to tho opinion that tho opportunities for nmklng fortunes nro not as great a Uiey were a half or even a quarter of a century ago. As a matter of fact, thero Is plenty of evidence that tho uvenucB to fortunes aro as unobstruct ed now aa they ever wero. Indeed, tho demand for men who nro capable nud reliable Is now greater thuu ever be fore, and whero thero Is such a de mand thero aro opportunities for mak ing fortunes. Thero Is a Mivor of philosophy and a dash of originality In tho venerable lllshop Huntington's diocesan address, particularly when In Hpenklug of iiimiHements ho says: "Wheu wo see bow many persons mnko a labor of their amusement how can wo help wondering whether they would not better tlud aimiNomont In thulr labor)" Tho beloved old churchman has struck the nail on the head there has struck it a blow which lights up tho darker recesses of tho human mind with the lire of everlasting truth. Farmers In Ilahla, llrostl, seem to I io a long way behind tho times. Tho htuto Is tho second In population In tho republic, and Its people aro do voted to agriculture. Yet, according to tho United Mates coiihuI stationed In itH capital, cultivators, planters mid burrows aro unknown, and thorn aro fow plows. Tho farms nro worked with u hoe, a spado and a machete, wltii now and then u pick. Until tho people down thero wako up they will not send much to Kuropo In competi tion with tho products of tho farms on this side of tho equator, They aro not yet ablo to raise oven enough hay for the support of their own cuttlo. The completion of tho now Panama canal will havo some marked effects upon tho great lanes of ocean travel. Vessels have, to be sure, for yean gone into raiiamu and Colon for tho transhipment of their freight across tho isthmus by tall. Tho effect ot tho opening of tho now canal may be Ilk oued to that of tho substitution of a utrong bridge nt a convenient place for crossing n river for n moro or lesi uncertain ford. Such a bridge attracts wagon roads. The canal will draw toward it tho commercial highways of the hemisphere. Vessels which tiro operated by steam can pursue an al most uuvurylng Hue, Their managers accordingly prescribe courses botwoeu various' ports, known as lanes, over which practically all tho shipping moves. In case of u breakdown tho vessel is much sooner "picked up" on n Jano than In less frequented parts of tho sea. Moreover, rocks, derelicts nnd other obstructions may bo mote cnrofully charted and watched on tho highly travolod courses. Thoro is usu ally nu oust and west lane a fow tnilca upurt to Jesseu the Caugr of collision. Out of Duluth. on tho Great Lake, there Is a four-track lane, two for pas senger steamers and two for freight ers. Although tho oceans of tho world have no visible Btreots or cross ings or sign-posts, In tho cyo of the navigator they nro thus very distinctly marked. No railroad train, make? so direct a lino between points as tho steamship. No locomotlvo engineer knows moro exactly where ho In at all times than the sea captain. Hail ing vessels, responsive to winds, tltloi and currents, go nbout moro at ran dom. Yet thero nre enormous areas of tho sea whero no sail or ninokc-RtusI: Is over seen. Evoh on tho stonnnililp lanes of tho Pacific ono seldom npies a vessel In n trip across that orenii. Nearlng tho Suez, however, from cither approach, and It will be tho same with tho Isthmian oanol, It scums as If tho ships of the world were out on purado, so plentiful do they suddenly become. Drink n glass of water when you get out of bed In tho morning. Never mind tho bIzo of tho glass. Let the water bo cold if you will. Homo peoplo pro scribe hot water, but that isn't neces sary. You may havo washed, your face already and relished tho experi ence. You may havo taken n cold pluugo Info the tub and delighted In tho shock and Kb reaction. Tho brink uso of the tooth brush has left your mouth clean and tho breath sweet Hut you aro dirty still. IJrlnkm glims of colil water and enjoy tho sensation of being clean inside. All that is luxurious In the cold bath cleansing tho outsldo is artllklal. That which should prompt tho glass of water aftor sleeping Is natural. As a test, tell tho 0-ycar-old protestaut against his morn ing scrub of cold water that ho may cscnpo It by drinking half a pint of the fluid. Hu will Jump nt tho opportun ity. Bleep has drawn upon tho water in tho blood, wid tho Instinct of tho animal, under natural conditions, is to replenish tho circulatory systoni nnd distend tho blood vessels anew. Tho food In tho stomach which hud so much to do toward Inducing sleep ban disappeared, leaving a mucous sub stance In tho alimentary canals. Yet man would wash his face nnd leave these half-clogged canals to the duties of another day. Drink n glass of cold water in tho unmo of cleanliness. It becomes one of tho shortest and easi est of toilet duties. It Is Bwnllowcd In a second nnd In Ave minutes has passed from tho stomach, taking with It tho clogging secretions of the ali mentary tracts. It has left behind tho stimulus that goes with cold wator, and, by tilling tho arterial systoni to tho normal, It puts a spur to tho cir culation that has grown sluggish In tho night. It Is one of tho greatest nwakener and ouo of nature's own stimulants. Drink a glass of water before breakfast, nnothor before luncheon, and another before dinner. Ha tor Is tho bost, cheapest and pleas antest medicine. PRONE TO SEE QHO8T8. Negro la Hnperetltlone to a I)arra Anccdoto to l'rove This. "Negroes aro naturally afraid of ghosts and I supposo It will be n good long time beforo they outgrow certain, prlmltlvo Inheritances which mado them firm bellovors In the oxlstence of such things," said a writer in tho JS'ew Orleans Times-Democrat "Tho Negro will naturally shy around tho dead-, houso and the graveyard. And If there. Is any chanco in tho world to see a ghost or to conjuro up a ghost story you may depend on tho iiogro to do It. Hut thero Is somewhat of tho real In tho story I have In mind. Thero was a certain old 'black mammy' In my neighborhood and she was thoroughly dovotcd to a cortalu family. Hho had known the husband and fathor of the houso all his life was a servant In' fact, In tho homo of Ills fathor beforo, and after the war. Ho was good to iter and sho could find In him nil tho virtues of tho old man. Ho took sick.' Hho was with him all during his sick ness. Ho died. "Hho still remained In the room and would not leave even during tho tlmo tho body was being prepared for the grave. A sheot had been pulled over tho body, and tho old woman at the moment was tho only person In tho room. Hho wns keeping a sllont watch. Huddeuly tho sheet moved, as If the dead man had pulled up ono of his anus In order to shift his position, Hho never remained In tho room to sue what was going to happen. Hho rush ed nut of tho houso and went to the placo next door, whero alio declared her young master was not dead, nnd that he had como to life. Of courso It was nil qulto natural. Tho move ment sho hnd observed was merely the contraction of a muscle, a thing which frequently happens. Hut you could not convince her of the truth of tho matter. Hho still lookH upon tho whole thing as a manifestation of life returned. Curiously enough, sho could not bo persuaded to enter tho houso again after that time, nor would sho attend tho funeral of tho man to whom sho had been devoted during all of his life. Huperstltutlou Is u curious thing, Uu't Iff" COWS THAT WEAK CLASSES. A r-KOTAcncn noviNt. Cattlo with Bncctucloa aro to bo aeon on tho llusfilan steppes.
