Reliable Merchandise Reliable Methods WOMAN 5 FIGHT IS LAID TO LETTERS Plaintiff, on Other Sand, Contends Robbery Was Motiys and That He Was Beaten With Cleaver and Left for Dead. While he slept In a chair in the kitchen of the home of V. W. Jobelman, he was beaten over the head with a meat cleaver and hammer and left for dead, -was the story of Hugh Parks. Korean, told before a Jury In the court of Circuit Judge Catena yesterday in the trial of the radical agitator on an indictment charging assault with In tent to kilL Parks occupied the witness stand most of the afternoon. His story, which held minor contradictions, was one of an unprovoked assault with rob bery as an incentive. A sensation was created In the open, lng statement of the Jury of Attorney "Wilfred B. Farrell, who, with Attorney Eugene K. Oppenheimer, represents Jobelmajv Sir. Farrell said he intended to show that Jobelman struck in self-defense with a hammer, after the Korean had attacked him with the meat cleaver and that the fight was the result of an altercation growing out of Parks' expressed intention to blackmail a prominent Portland society matron by the use of letter she had written him. Extortion Mam Indicated. The woman was said to have written the Korean, a former cook in her house hold, while she was visiting in the East, and the attorney said Parka told Jobel man that he was going to extort J500 from her so that he could return to the Orient. The state yesterday refused to con elder an agreement to shield the ma tron by allowing the letters to be placed In evidence with the name de leted. The defense promised to intro duce the letters today. In previous assertion made in the Municipal Court, the contention of Jo belman was that the fight grew out of an attempt of the Korean to get money from him on silverware stolen from the Oregon Hotel. Parks testified yesterday that Jobel man knew he often carried with him from work diamonds, watches and other Jewelry to the value of $2000 or $3000, And that Jobelman intended to rob him. The Korean's story was changed on the witness Btand under cross-examination. Story Slightly Changed. Tn the first telling he said that he awoke from his sleep to see Jobelman coming toward him with the meat cleaver and hammer. Later he amended It to say that he saw the instruments in Jobeiman's hand after being called to consciousness by the first blow. He said he laid unconscious for three hours. City Physician Zlegler, Officers Ed Burke, Harry Coulter and R. B. La Salle testified to incidents surrounding the crime. Freddy Jobelman, aged 10, was called by the defense. He said the fight awoke him and he looked through the doorway Into the kitchen in time to see Parks, with raised cleaver, making for his father. "I ran back, got In bed and pulled the covers over my head," concluded the lad. - - Parks was injured at Jobeiman's home. 7123 Thirty-seventh avenue Southeast, on December 17, 1916.

As a result of strong protests from residents of the Heights Terrace dis trict against unsightly tents used for commercial purposes in the district. Commissioner Baker yesterday sug gested that a system be devised where by the city can limit Buch structures In districts where they are not wanted. The proposal was agreed to by the Council as a satisfactory solution of the problem and It was referred to City Attorney LaRoche for investigation and report.

Weir Mitchell, . in his book, entitled "Wear and Tear, or Hints for the Over worked." that "multitudes of our young girls are merely pretty to. look at. or not that; that their destiny is the shawl and the sofa, neuralgia, weak backs and the varied forms of hysteria that domestic demon which has produced untold discomfort in many a household. and, I am almost ready to say, as much unhapplness as the husband s dram.' How is it best to maintain the health of the young girl Just growing into womanhood, or to prepare the young mother for the advent of a new mem ber in the household? In the first place, girls as a rule do not get enough fresh air, and Bhould be taught to take vigor ous exercise dally in the outdoor air. They should take a cold shower or a tepid bath every day to keep the pores of the smn-open. so that their skin will breathe as well as their lungs, and Bleep well covered up in bed with the window open, winter and Bvmmer. To build up and invigorate their womanly organs, I know of nothing better than that old tried remedy made up of roots which the first Americans used years before our race inhabited this country, extracted from Lady Blip per root. Cohosh and Unicorn root. Golden Seal and Oregon- grape root, with glycerine. It was first Introduced in retiy-to-use form by Dr. Pierce nearly fifty years ago, and has since been sold in larger quantities every year all over the United States.

Training The Child , by William Byron Forbush. Ph.D. D' O you believe In fairies? Weren't you in the crowd that helped save the life of Tinker Bell? 1 thought so. But do you know how to tell fairy tales to children? Surely you would not read a story about fairies to them out of a book. And you will not drone it out to them ponderously like -a sermon. Tou will tell It. chant It. sing- It. Fairy stories were the first way this old world tried to be happy. When early man caught his breath from being afraid he discovered fairies. The word "fairy" is nothing but fate, shortened and made hopeful. When he had noticed how pretty the earth looks under the touch of Spring he turned it into the story of Sleeping Beauty. And after he had made a batch of things, fairyland was Just his notion of how it would eeem to begin all over. So a fairy story Is not something serious or sad or fearsome. Unlike a fable. It does not have a moral tied to Its tail. It is simply a happy dream, seen waking. The Scenery of Fairy Tales. It Is a mistake to suppose that the scenery of a fairy story must be some far off and lonely place. No fairy ever lived In an untrodden waste. All that is needed Is a little greenery and blue sky above, a few flowers and a bird or two. Such a place you have under your own pergola or In your back yard. It is well known that whenever a baby is born In the morning a new fairy comes out of the west to take care of him. So there must be at least one near every child. And we know from Cinderella that they Are fond of kitch ens, and from little Red Hiding Hood that they like grandmothers' cottages. Thus a person with a very homely fancy can paint scenery bright enough for any listening child. t All Fairies Don't Wear Spangle. As for the fairies themselves. It takes no particular skill to portray them. They do not wear spangled wings or "red Jacket, green cap ,and white owl's feather." They are often mistaken for real people. Witness the common fairy godmother. They are discovered by what they do. Then they are found to be always little, helpful and. happy. In fact, fairies are Just our own selves idealized. For we are little folk In this big universe: compared with the great things, not so very much bigger than the butterflies and the birds. And our best fairylikeness Is to be help fully happy, because even the fairies dance only because their pleasant ful filled energy gives them Joy. Tou see then that the fairy Ideals are every year growing more and more like us. The fairy tale no doubt grew out of mythology. A fairy was a god grown old and disbelieved in. But now quite ordinary people go about their daily business and are fairies all the time. The Robin Goodfellow who gave us Peter Pan had him visiting a Lon don nursery, but even he has learned that the Neer-never Land Is still more common, and In his "Kiss for Cin derella" he has placed it in the heart of a sewing. girl and of a policeman. Recipe for Making Fairy Stories. So you do not need to depend upon books for story-telling. The in gredients of a fairy tale are simple. You must have a world of friend liness. Men and children must be liv ing fearlessly with the beasts and na ture. Somebody must be helping some body, quietly, unpretentiously and without preaching to them, but with great Joyousness. So quiet must this kindliness be that, if possible, it must be for a while concealed, or even mis understood. Just as masquerading is a favorite child's game, so the unmask ing of a fairy is quite the "happiest surprise possible In a story. Youth and Beanty In Fairyland. It must be a world of beauty, too. If possible, the folks In it ought to tread the greenwood and love moon light and listen to the evensong of birds. But these lacking, a lighted. Christmas tree or a candle in a corner, even of a hovel, will do quite as well. A fairy story can use ambulances and floating hospitals and sun parlors. It can use anything that promises to make people happier. The thing Is to tell about a world of things as we would like them to be. And the people must all have the spirit of being young. They may not be really young. There are many white-haired fairies. But they have the memory of youth and the spirit of childhood. The fairy tale was not in vented for children at all. It came into the world to give hope back to folks who were getting old and tired. It found the nursery open and Just trooped in. The best fairy tale Is one that has a hidden meaning of comfort for the grown-up 'who tells it and an obvious one of delight for 'the child who listens to it. So, like the hearth fire, it drives off the dark and brings us and the children together. The Boy Who Wonld Become a Car toonist. ' "To the Editor My boy of 12 has never gotten along well In school. His teachers all say that he Is perfectly capable of learning his lessons, but that he is a sort of dreamer, and does not pay attention, but likes to draw pictures, which he does very well. He thinks he wants to be a cartoonist. What can I do with him? R. E. J." We are tempted to grant special In dulgence to children who profess an interest In art or literature. We dream with them that they are going to be famous some day. As a matter of fact, ingenuity In drawing, largely copy work. Is one of the commonest facili ties there is. The newspaper cartoon ist today often Is not much of an art ist, but he has a sense of humor. It is, humor' and not his skill with his hands that makes him popular. Is your boy a humorist? Let us suppose that there is going to be a demand for cartoonists who are true artists, as were Du Maurier and Nast- Tour boy will have to meet some rather high scholarly requirements in order to en ter the best art schools, and 'he will need to show persistence such as he is not showing In school today. It Is fair to tell him these things, while at the same time encouraging his draw ing, so that if he really means any thing by it he may set himself a stand ard high enough to get somewhere. I would co-operate with his teacher by asking her what home work she would like to have him do, and I would see that he does it. He is too young yet to determine his future, but dur ing these character-forming years Just ahead your best help will be to try to make him learn how to concentrate and use his mind. "Cuss" Words. "To the Editor Fred shocks us late ly by profanity. I hope he doesn't mean it. but we have got to stop it some how. How shall we go about It? C. a. T." So far as his profanity Is Imitative, get him into better company. So far as it is relief for his feelings, tell him that "the steam that blows the whistle will never turn a wheel," and encour age him to express himself by the vigor of"Tiis hands, not of his mouth. So far as It is supposedly manly, guide him by telling him this story: Johnny's expression of his feelings when he dropped a fly or threw too high In a baseball game was- marvelous to hear. One day his gang was play ing a county association team. Johnny dropped a hot one and the regular flow of profanity started. Nothing was said until Johnny came Into the bench after the inning. Then a quiet young fel low, on his way to his position at third, stopped a minute and, looking Johnny In the eye, said: "Say, did It ever oc cur to you that anybody can swear when he drops a ball, but that It takes a man to keep his mouth shut?" That was all; but Johnny remembered. Johnny saw this young fellow drop a hard one that inning with never a peep; only a quick recovery and a grim taking of his medicine. Johnny got Interested, decided to quit, and did. COYOTE VICTIM RECOVERING Prank 'Powers Xow Well on Road to Health After Hydrophobia. The recovery of Frank Powers, hy drophobia patient under treatment at St. Vincent's Hospital, now seems to be assured. The alarming symptoms of the malady from which he suffered have entirely disappeared, it is said, and the patient is resting well. Mr. Powers, while employed on a sheep ranch near Madras, Or., was bit ten hy a rabid coyote and but little hope was held for his recovery when he was brought to this city. Under the Pasteur treatment, administered by Dr. David N. Roberg, state health officer, the paroxysms rapidly de creased In violence and ceased entirely after the third day in the hospital. The case is said to be without precedent In medical annals. WOMEN IN RELIEF MOVE EASTERNERS ASK OREGON TO JOIN MII.ITIA OF MERCY. ' Organization Looks After Families of Naval Militiamen YV Are Called Into Service. Lieutenant-Commander Blair, of the Oregon Naval Militia, yesterday re ceived a letter from Mrs. John Hays Hammond, president of the Militia of Mercy, a women's relief organization of New York" devoted to the relief of naval militiamen, asking what could be done in this city toward the es tablishment of a branch organization. The Militia of Mercy is composed of the most prominent women in New York, and Robert Lansing, Secretary of State, has accepted the tender of the services of the Militia of Mercy in case of war. It was organized last year and did valiant relief work for the families of guardsmen while they were at the Mexican border. The object of the organization ts to "create and develop in the United States for all times a militia of pa triotic American women trained and prepared for such services as women can render toward National needs." Commander Blair would be pleased to hear from any Individuals or so ciety interested In that sort of relief work who would look toward the or ganization of a branch of the Militia of Mercy In Portland. One of the chief functions or tne organization Is to look out for the families of the naval militiamen whan the bread-winners are away from home. It has now centered Its attention on the naval militiamen. Klamatli Honor Student Jfamed. KLAMATH FALLS, Or.. March 14. (Special.)
