Two Little Girls who Cook, Wash, Sew, and Shear Goats. There were two little girls in Corvallis Monday, who might properly be called heroines. Their lives are lessons to dis contented ones, a.nd there ceuld Hot be a more eloquent sertnan on duty than th simple history of these children. They are the daughters of W. H. (commonly known as "Junk") Mathews, who lives on Soap Creek, in the northern Art of Beaton county. Mathews and his wife separated several years age, the children stayiug with their father. Golds is 14 years old and Mary is but II, yet tey have for several years kopt house ou lUe farm, cooking, sewing; put ting up fruit arl doing all the many things that -ler heads aud hands find so trying.

On their return from Nrwberg, the children expect to walk from Corvallis to their home a distance of twelve miles. It will be the wish of everyone that these sturdy, faithful little people will nave - merry Christmas ami come back from their holiday with enough cheerful ness stored up 111 their hearts to last lkriilTrnt ttl VMT J A Noble House.

As such we may speak of the hoi-.se of Henkle (Hinkle), which as the records show, may b. easily traced back to Johann Freidrich HiHkle, an able writer, chemist and mineralogist, born in Freidberg, Saxony, in 1679, af terward appointed on of the counsellors of King Augustus II. Then we read of Joacain Henkle (Hinkle er Henchel), a skillful Prussian surgeon, bora in 1712 Then some ot us can remember Moses Montgomery Heaklv, the great divUs of Virginia, who wrote the "Primary Prin ciples of Methodism." As the language grew, the family name changed to Henkel, Hinkle, Haukel, Hank, Hankse and Hanks, tke name of a branch of the family whose blood ; courted in the veins of our"martyred president." Two branches of the family have become identified with our state as farmers, mer chants, mechanics, capitalists and educa tors; but not one. member has reflected discredit udoi the name.

The contest ever the matter has been spirited and even, sometimes, bitter. - The books of the firm are missing and Ingle wants them found. Tne members of the firm testified Monday that they did not know who took the books, but Mr. Holm stated that he could probably make a good gnss,but he was not iu tha guessing humor. The firm evidently le-lieves- that Ingle has not treated them fairly and they intend to let him work out his own salvation. .
