A Spokane Falls man has dona a great
thing by inventing a hoot blarking ma

At a meeting of taxpayers in Toledo
the vote was almost solid against incor
porating as a city. Quit right. There
should be a state law allowing incorpor
ations as cities only when the tows has
a population of 1000 or over, and when
the state increases sufficiently larger
than that. It is ridiculous to call every
little collection of houses a city.
Littlo things often take a man back
into the misty past. An Albany Iran

around my neck. Another boy bantered
me to bet on the race and I put op the
buckeyes, all I had, and lott. Great
horse races they need to have in old

mous size trying to swallow the child.

and measuring six and one-half inches
in circumference, lne babe lived, ana
the only inconvenience it suffered from
its terrible experience was that its arm
ana nana were biisterea as u scaiuea in
hot water."

The members will please remember
the special meeting which the president
lias called lor toniuht. at 7 o ciock. it is
very necssary to have a full meeting,
t lease do not neglect this.
Noonday meetings will be held in the
Y. M. 0. A. hall every day this week,
from 11:30 to 12:30 o'clock. We espec
ially ask our business men to drop in, if
only long enough to say, "Thank (jod."
The Y. M.C. A. ball wai too small to
seat the crowd that came to hear Kobt
Cairns at our gospel meeting, last Bun
day. . Truly God bas sent a power
among us. The man who can sit and
listen to the practical, ecatning talks 01
Kobt Cairna and not heed the warning,
must have a heart harder than the rocks
of the old Granite state, and is to be
pitied, ' . .
The Association received, this week
an exceedingly fine oil painting of Mt
Hood. It has been our pleasure to see
many paintings ot Mt Hood, and beauti
ful ones, too. But we never saw such a
beautiful and artistically arranged fore
ground to Mt Hood as the one in this
picture. The art displayed is something
to be admired, and the Y. M. 0. A., ot
Albany, wish to extend many thanks to
Mies Martin, of McMituwille, the donor
of this beautiful and acceptable gift.
