As a large number of anonymous let ters maligning Mrs. Sarah A. Evans, president of the Oregon Federation of Women's Clubs, recently have been sent out to presidents and members of clubs throughout the state, the executive board of the Portland Woman's Club at its meeting this week decided to take action that would place on record its disapproval of such letters inasmuch as the communications were signed "A Club Member." A resolution was adopted unanimous ly and was ordered sent to the presi dent of every federated club in the state. No attention was given to the first set of unsigned letters, but when oth ers made their appearance, the Port land Woman's Club officers thought that, to those in other parts of the state who did not know Mrs. Evans as well as they did, some testimonial was due from the women who have to come in close touch with her. The resolution follows:" Resolved, That, the corresponding secre tary be, and is hereby instructed to write to Mrs. Sarah A. Evans a letter voicing its unqualified disapproval and condemnation of such disgraceful procedure; also to ex press to Mrs. Evans, a charter member ot the club, a past-president ot exceptional at tainment, still with us an esteemed anl honored member, who, during her 10 years' career as state president, has led us from small beginnings to large achievements our assurance that we most sincerely de plore this campaign of slander and vitu peration and regret tbat the title "Club Member" has been used, for such base and degrading purposes. It is signed by the executive board of the Woman's Club. Mrs. G. J. Fran kel. president; Mrs. J. A. Pettit, corre sponding secretary. TfiESikWLwSTOST By Mrs F.A."WaleR- The Rainbow Jewels. ONCE upon a time, when there were no real people in the world, the only inhabitants were giants and dwarfs. But up in the blue eky above lived the busy cloud fairies in castles like huge forts of snow. Every even ing at sunset they would paint the edge of the sky in hundreds of glow ing colors till the purple and gold and ruby tints would light up the whole earth. The little dwarfs lived in one corner of the land in a country all their own and thought it very beautiful to watch the sky being painted and the soft light creeping over the country. But the giants, who owned another part of the world, were mean and jealous and did not like to see anyone do things that they could not do themselves. These giants were as tall as a church steeple, had green faces and rode on huge dragons that breathed fire and brimstone. So the dwarfs were very much afraid of these big men, who would sometimes take delight in tramping, down the tiny homes that is, every time a giant took a notion to go on a tour around the earth. One day, after a rain, the queen of the cloud fairies coasted down the rain bow to visit the dwarfs, and as they sat drinking tea together the king of the little men told the fairy some news. It was that the giants were making a plan to scale the cloudland castle and steal the paints with which the fairies tinted the sky each evening. "They intend to march up by way of the rainbow," said the dwarf, "and I can hear ; them coming now. Look!" And, sure enough, over the ton. of the far-off mountains the fairy saw a vast host of huge men with green faces riding on dragons whose breath filled the heavens with smoke and fire. The fairy sprang up and handed the dwarf a wand. "I will fly home at once." she said, "and we will be ready to receive the enemy. But my plan is this: When the rainbow bridge is full of giants I will wave my wand to you. Now, you must push the end of the bow that rests on the earth and that will upset the bridge and the giants will fall." And the little fairy flew away on a ray of light to her castle in the clouds, Just where the rainbow ended. Then the queen of the fairies sent for all her people and they stood in ranks of gleaming gold and scarlet on the walls of the snowy cloud castle. While up along the vast rainbow bridge that stretched from earth to sky came the host of giants, their dragons shining in the sun and - filling the clouds with smoke and darkness. ? But the fairies we're not afraid. They knew that the queen had hidden the paint-pot deep in the dungeon and that she would find a way to get rid of the giants. So they shook their tiny spears and clashed their little golden shields till the tinkle sounded to the dwarfs below like the chiming of tiny silver bells. Presently the biggest giant rode almost to the gate. Then the queen waved her wand to the dwarf on earth below, and he pushed with the magic wand against the end of the rainbow bridge. It trembled, shook, and then with a mighty crash it fell thundering to the ground and all the giants and dragons with it. The millions of pieces of the rainbow scattered over the earth, and that is why today we find beautiful jewels of all colors bidden in clay and stone. But the giants and dragons fell so hard that they sank far down and never got up to earth again. And that is why sometimes people feel the earth quake and see mountains with fire and smoke coming out it is the giants turning over in their sleep and the dragons breathing hard.

There isn't any such thing as a tired child unless he is sick. Babies are of more value than so many hogs: why not learn how to feed Jthem? Every child should have his eyes examined frequently. Compel the child to eat what he does not want and you put poison in his stomach and make him ill. Don't call your father the "old man" or your mother the "old woman." If the state would spend some of the money it now spends in the reformatories for scientific Inves tigation of the eyes of children, especially the poorer classes, in a few years' time reformatories would be less necessary, if not unnecessary. Boys and girls, the first thing when you get up In the morning take a towel or stiff brush and rub over the whole body as hard as you can.
