... i LITTLE PLAINS. Two of. Mr. Cowherd's girls have been sick for several days. The disease seemed a peculiar, and parents and neigh bora wore afraid .it -,migbt be cdntiigious, as they had a severe skin eruption. Dr. Long was called and he pronmnewl it- a ing mere thuggery of our work 13 all wrong.

She is living in tents temporarily, but will build a house as soon as she can get .around to it. ' '" ' James Hathorn hauled a load of lumber recently from th.e saw mill, foi Mr. McNemar who has taken a claim on Round Butle. Mr. and Mrs. Andra Lim bangh, of Opal Prairie, visited relatives in this vicinity Satur day and Sundaj i Mr, Mortituore made a trip to Shaniko lsist week, and. while there purchased a now disc drill and a harrow. He intends to put in a large spring crop. Mr. Tr'uax is unable' to work this week. He is suffering ffom lagiippe. . The order of the , (lay, seems jto be plowing, havrpwing, and- seeding and if this; proves. r,q: be a seasonable year, the farmer will doubtless harvest large to stoniache disorder.

While 1' would iir'no vay belittle the. efforts of so many worthy members of .my sex, I do deplore, the state of spiritual and mental starvation to which they have driven, or have brought themselves to. Work comes first. We ehonld work, all of us, in one way or auother. The very poor in our cities are forced to work beyond reason and strength to Jkeep a place to stay in nota home and a scanty living, but our women who have homes and husbands to provide for them, though they have loo much w.ork to do, by al ways keeping at it, make it all the haider, for after the body is. wearied, the dragging on hour .after hour does not accomplish nearly as much as could be done in same time, -when "mind and body are fresh. So very many iire leading a treadmill exist ence, and if they live to accumu late that for which the' are now denying themselves health and .happiness, they will noi be in a condition to enjoy it. If they have narrowed their lives down to a single purpose they will not develop and open their hearts and mind readily. If they have read'little the' have probably lost their taste for reading and these faculties are not so easily restored as one may think. We should not so bunch our wcrk and play; we should have both .every day tq, a reasonable de gree, except during vacations, which everyone should havo at jeoino season of the year; Many a women longs for the com panionship of a.good book, and ,h chapter or two in a day would, perhaps take her mind away jrora herself and" her ' work. A bit of choice poetry, how it will linger iu the mindj Thia mak- your pvet tiest vasesn nd arrange them, not hurrying, but just en joying the royal beaut'. The sight of llowers at. the family meals is:reh'n ing. Wheu this is done.you w'll fVql far morc like worlc than wheifyou .went out. Take time for these ihings. Your baby looks up at you from her playthings with a smile. Take her up and give her the caress which your heart prompts you to. She will soon be too big, or maybe she may be called away. Do not wait until she cries before taking her; give her and yourself a moment of hap piness. Do not make yourself a slave for her if she is well, but do not let her lack affectionate x'are. bne will return it to von Keep yourself fresh for her sake Do not give all that is beat to your labors whil -.'3our children get only food, clothing.an'd shel ter. These are' all necessary, but there is the sweet home life to be enjoyed b' all; nothing in after life can compensate for its loss. Do .your w.ork the easiest .way it. can, be, done. and done well, but do not overdo. Keep spirits and strength wisely, as yjpur stoek in lfe family hoard. t Eifiov.vriur elf kwhileivon ma v. n - $ wh i Pf o 1 1 1 i qH o p gU i sr a nfd t y before learing the lesson of true ILvingi- A lioin E.

The Dalles Chronicle is tating- the plan of cleaning up the citv. The editor of that popular sheet has always been noted for her efforts along this line, we think the citizens of The Dalles would do well to take notice and. act accordingly, for if there is anything attiactive about a town it is the clean ap pearance of its streets and al leys. By tlie way it would not hurt our own citirens to assume a little of this advice and see if they cannot make the outside of their business properties as as neat and clean looking as possiable.
