SicO,TVirTtoiy MtrJU LOCAL BUREAU PRAISED Trier Quality' Store or Portland MONTH'S FALL YET LOW lr.ile Frequent Showers, Tolul Tor t'il.v Xot Yet Normal, but State icls .More Than Average iiud -Records of Bureau Cited. At l;ist! Fair weather in Portland is unconditionally forecast for today. While many think the recent period of rainy weather in Portland was un usual for this season or' the year, such is not the case, according to District Forecaster Beaks, who says that the rainfall for the month yet is below nor mal. Records indicate that this year': rainfall is equaled about once in three years. "Up to date our May rainfall is 2:34 inches, while the normal for the month is inches." Mr. Beals says. "There fore we must have a fall of .0.! inch within the next two days to equal the normal. Should we Ket more than .02 inch the normal will be exceeded for the first time since last September, when the rainfall was 3.10 inches, or 1.-6 inches greater than usual. "The heaviest rainfall in May since the establishment of the weather serv ice in this city was in 1879, when it reached 6.60 inches. May, JOO, Exceptionally Wet. "Some of the other wet Mays were In 1871, when the precipitation was 5.18 Inches; in 1887, when the amount was 4.77 inches; 188r, when it was 4:6!t inches, and in 1U0S, when it was 4.66 Inches. "Rain of .01 inch or more has fallen on 18 days this month. In 111 there were the same number of rainy days in May, in 1908. 1905 and 190:! as well as on many other occasions tliero were more rainy days in May than this year. "That it has rained nearly every day since -May 8. coupled with the fact that the preceding Sprinpr and Winter months were unusually dry, has created an impression that the recent spell of wet weather was an exception to the rule." Normal for State Exceeded. Throughout Oregon, however, the rainfall for May has been .23 of an inch above the normal, which is 2.20 inches. The farmers benefited by the rains, as is shown in the report issued by the Weather Bureau May 26. This report says that the early strawberries suffered from the rains, but that other wise all farm products were beneilted. Weeds have grown and thrived during the rains, and the work of cultivation has been somewhat retarded. Dry weather i3 needed now to enable the farmers to catch up on this work, says the report. Sheep shearing, in the central por tion of the state, was delayed because of the cool weather during the rains. In a few localities a small fungus urowth, attributed to the dampness, is the only ill effect noticed by the fruit growers. Hay Crop Are Favored. The bureau's observers said that the recent weather had been especially favorable for Fall and Spring sown cereals, legume hay crops, pastures and ranges. It was reported that Fall wheat is in the boot and in some places has begun to head while corn will make more favorable progress in warmer weather. In lowlands of the Willam ette Valley the rains are reported to have turned yellow some fields -of g r i ii. The bureau's report says that show ers foil every day in the past week In ihe Wetsern counties and on two more days in the eastern counties. This, says the report, was attended by cloudiness and. in consequence, the day tempera tures were about normal, no damaging frosts being reported. WOMAN NOT WED, $50 GONE .Man Admits Bor rowing lVoni Others on Promise to Marry. Guileless women were alleged to be the principal prey of Howard G. Austin, alias F. J. Clarke, who was arrested yesterday by City Detectives Goltz, Abbott, Price and Mallett. charged with obtaining money under false pretenses. Lily Rudy, of 329 Wrygant street, says that Austin borrowed $50 from her under promise of marriage and refused to return the money. He is a hospital attendant. The detectives assert that they have admissions from Austin con cerning the "borrowing" of a gold watch, bracelet and $2 in money from a woman living In Albrna, and of ?300 from a San Francisco woman. Austin told the officers that he was under order of the court In San Francisco to reimburse a woman in that city for the 300 he took while engaged to her.

CITY I)r. Anna I.. Strong:. National Child Welfare Worker, Commend Work t arried On in This City. "There are two reasons why 1 came to Portland." said Dr. Anna I Strong, of the children's educational bureau of Washington, D. C. before the parents' educational bureau yesterday after noon. "The first is because your educa tional bureau attracted me. Portland is the only city in the United States to my knowledge which has a bureau for the education of parents, and children under 5 years of age. The other rea son is because of the co-operation of the county officials, the Juvenile Court and the mothers' pension, with the parents bureau." Dr. Strong is the head of. the ex hibit department ot llle children's bureau of Washington, D. C, and has charge of the display at the Panama I'aciric Exposition at San Francisco She is preparing a bulletin of informa tion fur parents in which she intends to utilize the material which she has gained while on this trip West. In her lecture yesterday she told of the work of the children's bureau in Washington for extra workers and for money with which to carry on the work. She says Congress provided J165.000 a year for the bureau and that 60 workers have been added to the staff. She says that those who have majored in sociological work in the uni versities have been given the prefer ence. She gave some valuable advise to the Oregon Congress of Mothers who are to give a "back to the home" exhibit next Fall. Among these she encouraged the use of home-made toys and suggested that the children be allowed to write essays in school telling of the things which they would prefer above ail others in the home. She also told of the work in progress at the exposition and asked the co-operation of the Portland bureau. Dr. Strong left for Seattle last night. 17 THREE HELD SECRET BY FEDERAL, GRAND JURY.

Guthrie & Co., railroad contractors, returned yester day from St. Paul, where he passed about three weeks on business. The company has an office in St. Paul. "Railroad work Is quiet this year." said Mr. McDoirgall. "There is little new construction either in the Middle West or in the East. I believe that there is more activity here in the Northwest than .in any other part of the country. "Contractors are hopeful, though, that work will open up before the end of the Summer. If general business continues to improve the business of the railroads will improve correspond ingly. In that event construction work ought to open up."' Portland Architect Named. SALEM. Or., May 28. (Special.) J. V. Bennes. of Portland, today was chosen as architect for the training school building at the State Normal School, for which an appropriation was made by the recent Lesislature. To Absorb Freckles and Other Blemishes Every spring numerous inquiries are made by girls seeking some reliable recipe for removing freckles. Last year very favorable reports were re ceived from many who had used mer colized wax during the freckling sea son. The wax seems to possess un usual properties which completely ab sorb the freckles, with no harmful effect. The complexion Improves won derfully, becoming as soft as a rose petal, and as delicately tinted. Get an ounce of mercolized wax at any drug gist's, spread a thin laver of it over the entire face every night for awhile, washing this off in the morning. For rough, spotty skin, sallowness, black heads, pimples, and all cutaneous blemishes, this treatment is superior to any other. Springtime also brings wrinkles to many sensitive skins that are much ex posed to winds and changing tempera tures. To a half pint witch hazel add an ounce of powdered saxol.it.-, whic", quickly dissolve- ' Uino ir.r'iee in thf.x.- -rv? r. a wrinkled akin is remarkaolei.
