She stated that ou tne train that morning a gentleman who was a delegate to the Oregon btate Tem perance Alliance had told her she would better let the County Association alone, and go on to Portland aud give the Alli ance a "boost." She told him that there would tie enough at the Alliance to help it along, and it would be better for him to strike at the foundation of the tern perauce reform ami attend the Associa tion and give it a "boost." By way of an illustration of tne workings of the different Associations in tlie State, she said it was stated that in tlie matter of persons drowning they would be under the water for a certain length of time, when heavy cannonading would bring them to the surface. It was just so in regard to the different Associations in tlie country; they go around stirring up the people, and everywhere sutlragists keep coming to the surface. After music, the Association ad journed to meet at 12 o'clock sr. on Thursday, to attend to unfinished busi ness. THURSDAY MORNING SESSION. Called-to order at 12 o'clock m. by the Vice President, Miss Olds, the President being deterred from attending on ac count of sickness.

"On motion, tlie rules were suspended, and the commit tee elected by acclamation, which re sulted as follows: Mrs. Kelty, Frank Martin, and Lillian Cooke, Lafayette; Mrs. Stott and Mrs. Dunn, North Yam hill. The motion made at the last meeting to leave out the July meeting was car ried. By ballot, McMinnville was selected as the place of holding the next meeting. The Committee on Resolutions sub mitted their report, which is: We, your committee appointed on Resolutions, beg leave to submit the Ioiiowing: Whereas, Believing that all free governments are instituted for the good of all'their members, and that all goodJ people are equally interested therein; aud that all such governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed; therefore, be it resolved by this Association, 1st. That the laws of our national and State governments denying to one-half of our citizens the right to vote is un just, and contrary to the true spirit of our institutions. 2d. That the laws of our country. which compel one portion of its citizens to contributertheir means to support and maintain Jaws to which they- are ameuable, and which they have no voice in making, is a species of tyranny altogether incompatible with the ad vanced age in which we live. 3d. That 'while' women" are tried bv jury, that it should be by a jury of their peers; aud while the laws deprive no men from acting as jurors, this right Is denied tbem; aud -that one of the greatest principles laid down in English and American jurisprudence is stultified. 4th. That the conferring upon women of tlie ballot would not only be giving to tuem mat to wtiicn by najjire they are entitled, for, with Garrison, we be lieve that the "right to liberty is iuher entand universal;" but that its tendency -would be to elevate and reliue, as the denial of any just right would have a tendency to degrade. Lee Latjghlin, . Mrs. M. a. Hanna, Mks. H. C. Brown. Professor Lieser moved that the first resolution have "unconstitutional" in serted In the last senteuce, so as to read "unjust, unconstitutional, and contrary to the true spirit ot our institutions." This motion was discussed pro aud con, and was at length carried. Mr. Laughlin offered a resolution as follows: Resolved, That the objectof the Yam hill County Woman Sufi rage Assocla- tion is the enfranchisement of women. and thatJilial efforts f said Association should be used to accomplish that great end alone, and that itshould be kept in tact, irom an extraneous issues. Quite a Jively discussion followed the reading of this resolution, as it was not clear just what the gentleman referred to. Mrs. Loughary asked If he wanted to keep the question out of politics, for tt tie did there would be nothing left oi it. Mr. Laughlin stated that his mean ing was not to argue temperance, relig ion, etc., in connection with Woman Suffrage. Professor Lieser said he endorsed the sentiments of the last speaker. A motion was now made to adopt tne resolution, which was carried. Tbo following resolution was also adopted: Resolved, That we regard with satis faction tlie rapid growtli of public opin ion in favorof tlie woman movement in the county; and that we believe that iust m proportion as public opinion be comes enlightened and liberalized, its growth mlavorol Woman Sultragewill increase. The Constitution was again read, and more names added. Total number or names added, 10. The annual fees were deposited. A vote of thanks-was tendered the trustees of the Academy. Resolved.

No further business being before the meeting, the Association stood ad journed, to meet at McMinnville on the third Wednesday in May, at ii o-ciock a. jr. Mrs. m. a. hanna, Lillian A. Cooke, President. Secretary pro tern. "Winter. Comforts a Century Ago. Our fathers in 1775 were groping in almost utter darkness, so far as a knowl edge of the sciences was concerned, and but little progress had been made in in vention and the arts; scarcely one of the modern contrivances for cooking, and for warming and lighting dwellings, was known. Not a pound of coal, or a cubic font or illuminating gas, had been burned in the country. No iron stoves were used, and no contrivances forecon nmizing heat were employed until Dr. Franklin invented the iron frame tire place, which still bears his name. All the cooking aud warming in town and country were done by the aid of fire kindled upon the brick hearth, or in the brick oven. Pine knots or tallow can dles furnished the lights for tlie long winter evenings, and sanded floors sup plied the place ot rugs and carpets. The water used for household pur poses was drawn from deep wells by the creaking "sweep," and it is a curious circumstance that tlie well, and also the building meeting the necessities of water-closet, were often at long distances from tlie house. In a cold, windy night in winter, to be called toward either of them; was something dreadful to think of. No form of pump was used in this country, so raras we can learn, until af ter the commencement of the present century. There were no rriction matches in those early days, by the aid of which tire could be speedily kindled; and if tlie nie "went out" upon the hearth over night, and the tinder was damp, so that the spark would not "catch," the alter native remained of wading through the snow a mile or so, to borrow a brand o a neighbor. Only one room in any house was warm (unless some one of tlie family was ill); in all tlie rest the temperature was at zero during many nights in the winter. The men and women of a hundred years ago undresied mid retired to tueir uecis at night in an atmosphere colder than that of ou modern barus and wood-sheds, and they never complained. No hot-air furnaces or steam-pipes tempered the wintry- ai in their dwellings, and they slept soundly in the cold, even af(er eating heartily or shag-barks or butternuts and then washing tliem down with a quart or two of hard cider. The cooking was very simple, and the nature or the rood plain and substantial But few dishes were seen upou the la- b!e; pork and cabbage, corn bread and milk, with "bean porridge," were tl everyday forms, of food consumed. Sc- icdeu. Tobacco. This weed is the deadliest poison known which human beings habitually use. Jtsetlects on the human system are varied, aud deleterious in proportion to tne organs auected. The derange ments which the habitual useof tobacco produces are are as follows: 1. .Headache over the eyes. 2. Nervous headache without sick uess. 3. Nervous headache with sickness of the stomach. 4. Deafness. 5. Partial blindness, or amaurosis, G. Running at tlie eyes. 7. Cancer on tlie Up. a. consumption, preceded lor years by a cough. 9. Asthma. . - 10. Dyspepsia. 11. Palpitation of the heart. 12. Paralysis of the upper part of the body. 13. Neuralgia, especially of the face, head, and neck. 14. Swelling of the gums and rotting ot the teeth. 15. Enfeebleraent of the lymphatics, 1(5. Enlargement of the glands of the face and neck, making thechewer thick about the cheek aud lips. 17. jjetnargy. 18. Morbid appetite for spirituous liquors. 19.

He bad been thinking deeply for a day or two, ami there was a Spartan look on his face as he sat down to break fast. He was unusually quiet, though tie said ne never teit uetter in nis lire, Chapter II. Rising from the table, he drew forth his tobacco-box and said to his wife: "Hannah, I'm going to quit th weed 1" "No!" "Yes, I am. I've been a slave to the disgusting habit for forty years, but now I'm done with it! Come here Hannah." She followed him to the door, and he flung the box far out in the back yard, - Chanter HI.

The Law ofNeirspapcrs. 1. Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary are considered as wishing to contmne their subscriptions. 2. ir any subscribers order the discontinuance of their newspapers, the publisher may con tinue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their newspapers from the offices to which they are directed, the law holds them responsible until they have settled the bills, and ordered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers remove to other places with out informing the publisher, and the newspa pers are sent to the former direction, they are held responsible. 5. The courts hare decided that refusing to and leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie t .1 .r i ........ i ...... l ,1 I 6. The postmaster who neglects to give the legal notice of the neglect ot a person to take from the office the newspapers addressed to I him, is liable to the publisher for the subscrip tion price.
