Some Curious Things Scientifically Explained. Get a largo tallow condlo with a thick wlek, and, having lighted it, let It burn a little while until tho wick Is quite long. Care should bo taken to keep tho candle shielded from the draft, so that tho wick may remain straight. Now blow tho light out sud denly, and a stream of smoke will rise from tho wick. This smoko is the gas that makes tho candlo burn, and to prove It touch a lighted match to it Immediately after blowing out tho candle, when tho gas will ignite and tho flame will run down in a stream and relight the wick, Just like a Jewel dropping from the air. The match should bo held about half an Inch above the wick, but by experi menting you may bo able to increase the distance, allowing tho candle to burn a little while before each trial. Now make another experiment. Let tho candle burn until tho burned wick is quite long, as before, and then, hav ing blown out the light suddenly, hold a piece of wire gouze down over tho wick so that the smoke will rise through the meshes of the gauze. Then hold a lighted match to tho smoke above the gauze, and the smoke will ignite, but the flume will not go below tho gauze. The reason is that the wire carries away the heat so rapidly that the flame Is put out. That the flame will not go up through the wire gauze may be shown by hold ing the gauze over the candlo while It Is burning, when tho flame will spread out over tho lower surface of the gauze and not a bit of It go through. It Is this principle on which the miner's safety lamp Is constructed. cur GETS . ELI OREGON FORESTS ARE xt READ 1 BREAD !

It Is very pleasant to have a family of toads living under one's front door step. They are very social fellows, and their antics are so funny that It Is amusing to watch them. Children should never Injure or frighten toads, as they are very useful as well as In teresting. All day long a toad will Ho half cov ered with sand or dirt, and Us his coat is dust color you may look right at him and not see him, but as soon as the sun sets ho comes forth to get his supper of flies and bugs. Toads should always be encouraged to live in the garden, for they do a great deal of good there, says the Cir cle. Almost any farmer will tell you that ho would rather have a toad to pick off the bugs and worms that de stroy his plants than a boy. The toad is nlso a musician, and this you probably did not know. When the spring song of the frogs down in tho Bwamp Is at Its height and all are piping away with might and main, you may hear one song, loud and shrill, which trembles like a whis tle with a pea In It. It Is the loudest and most peislstent of all the frogs songs, with tho possible exception of that of the piping fiog. The noisy musician Is none other than our friend, Sir. Hoptoad. If you can discover him In the act. you will see that he puffs out his throat until t looks as though it would burst; then ho sends forth his shrill, tremulous song. Gold Beach Men Subscribe Money to Get Connection. .With Outside World. GOLD BEACH, Ore., July 7. Great Interest is being taken In the work of the local telephone stock company, which Is constructing a line from Gold Beach south. Much dis satisfaction has for a long time been felt with the old line which connects uurry county witn outside com munication by way of Gold Beach north. There Is no telegraph line In the county, and excepting by mall, no communication can bo had con cerning the doings of the outside world but by this line. Tho service Is so Irregular and the equipment so poor that the lino almost Invariably falls when most needed. At the time of tho primaries It was down, and again a few days ago, when all were anxiously awaiting the decision of tho Chicago Republican Convention. Last January the Southern Curry Telephone Company, a home enter prise, was organized and the by-laws were published the latter part of the same month. The line Is to extend from Gold Beach to connect with the line at Crescent City, Cal. The capital stock of the company, $4,000, was soon sold. E. A. Bailey, County Judge, was elected president; Dr. J. Schllemann, secretary and treasurer, and V. J. Ward, who is agent and representative here of the Brooking Lumber Company, was chosen man ager. All are directors, acting with W. J. Cooley and Delmer Colegrove, of the southern part of the county. Poles are being set from both north and south. It is Intended to push the work as rapidly as possible.

Perhaps the oldest of familiar expres. sions is to "cut a dido." which Is said of a person when he plays a sharp trick. The phrase goes back to 800 years before Christ, when Dido, queen of Tyre, after the murder of her hus band by her brother fled from that city and established a colony on tho north ern coast of Africa. She bargained for as much land as could be surrounded with a bull's hide, and in order to claim as large a tract as possible she had the hide cut into narrow strips, and on the land thus surrounded she built a citadel. The natives, seeing that they were outwitted by a woman, quietly submitted to this cutting up of a dido. Their Master's Voice.

Inspector Armstrong Gives a Fair Warning to All Growers. SALEM, Ore., July 8. That fruit grqwers and shippers must obey the law requiring the marking of boxes, Is the determination of Fruit In spector E. C. Armstrong, of Marion county, and it is understood that con certed action along this line will be taken by horticultural officers In all parts of the state. The purpose of the law enacted In 1907, is to pro vide a means by which the name of tho grower of diseased fruit may be ascertained. Then, too, if the name of the packer must be placed on the box, greater care will be taken in sorting and packing, thus securing a higher grade of fruit, aside from the question of fruit pests. Mr. Armstrong today gave to the press the following warning to grow ers, packers and shippers of fruit: "Your attention is called to the law of this state enacted In 1907, re lating to the marking of fruit boxes. Under the provisions of this law ev ery person, firm, association or cor poration engaged In growing, pack ing or selling green fruits in Oregon is required to mark, stamp or label plainly on the outside of every box or package when packed, the name and address of the packer, and If the packer is not the grower, the name and address of the grower as well as of the packer, must appear promin ently upon the box or package. It Is made unlawful for any merchant, shipper or vender to represent that any green fruits were raised, pro duced or grown by any other person than the one, who actually raised them or that they were grown in any other place or locality than that in which they were actually grown. Any violation of this law is punish able by flno or Imprisonment or both and the possession for tho purpose of sale of any falsely or Illegally marked box or package Is the viola tor of the law." FRI , EDMUND CLARENCE 8TEDMAN. IEND of us all and the maker of lyrics that touch and soften the heart. Heartfelt and lavish of fancy and beauty that golden tripped ca dence Impart, Fallen In Azrael's shadow and borne o the Islands unknown Now poetry loses her lover and lotters a knight from her throne. A voice that could thrill and encourage, yet winnow tho chaff from the wheat, There Is now not another so genial, so tenderly earnest and sweet.

The only other state In which these plans have been completed is Idaho, but It is ex pected that the work of redisricting In all the National Forest states will be finished and the changes announc ed In the next few days. No addition to forest area is In volved in the plans for redisricting In any of the states of the Northwest. The object of the work is to equalize the areas of administrative units and to arrange their boundaries In such a manner as to promote the most ef ficient and practical administration of the forests. It will enable officers of the Forest Service to give prompt attention to all forest business and further the Interests and add to the convenience of stockmen, lumber men, miners and all other users or settlers In the National Forests. The Oregon National Forests which will be effected by this rearrangement are as follows: A new forest to be known as the Umatilla will contain 550,176 acres and will consist of all of the Hepp- ner and of tho northwestern portion of the Blue Mountains Forest. It is located in Morrow, Umatilla, Grant and Wheeler counties. This forest will continue to be administered by Supervisor Thomas E. ChldBey with headquarters at Heppner, Oregon. The forest to be known as the Whitman will haye an area of 1,264,- 739 acres and will consist of the northeast portion of the Blue Moun tains Forest which Is in general the area formerly known as the "Blue Mountains (W) National Forest." It Is located In Umatilla, Union, Baker, and Grant counties and will be under the administration of Supervisor Henry Ireland with headquarters at Sumpter, Oregon. The new Malheur National Forest Is what has been formerly known as the "Malheur Division of the Blue Mountains," and will embrace 1,183, 458 acres. It consists of tho south eastern portion of the "Blue Moun tain (W) Forest" and is located in Umatilla, Union, Baker, and Grant counties. This forest will continue under the administration of Super visor Cy. J. Bingham with head quarters at John Day, Oregon. The forest to be known as the Des chutes will consist of that portion of the Blue Mountain Forest former ly known as "Blue Mountain (W)," the northern portion of the Fremont, and certain townships of the Cas cade containing 1,475,480 acres. It Is located in Crook, Lake, Wheeler, Klamath, Grant, and Harney coun ties. The forest will be administered by Supervisor A. S. Ireland with headquarters at Prlnevllle, Oregon. The Fremont National Forest will consist of the southern portion of the old "Fremont" and all of the "Goose Lake" forests and Is located In Lake, and Klamath counties. This forest is very irregular In outline and is composed of many segregated areas, the total area of which will be 1,236, 960 acres. It will continue to be. under the administration of Super- visor Guy M. Ingram with head quarters at Lakevlew, Oregon. The land formerly Included in the "Bull Run" and tho "Cascade (N)" forest, except that portion south of the Wlllametto Valley Cascade Moun tain Wagon Road, covering 1,788,320 acres, will bo called the Oregon Na tional Forest. This forest Is located In Multnomah, Clackamas, Wasco, Marlon, Linn, and Crook counties and will continue under the adminis tration of Supervisor Thos. H. Sher rard with headquarters at Portland, Oregon, Cascade will continue to be the name of that portion of the old "Cas cade" forest (not Included in tho Fremont) lying between tho Willa mette Valley and Cascade Mountain Wagon Road and the middle fork of the Willamette river and West Des chuttes rlcer. This forest has an Jackson, Klamath and Curry coun ties, Oregon, and Shasta county, Cali fornia. Acting Supervisor C. A. Buck will administer this forest with head quarters at Medford, Oregon. The Siskiyou will now consist of the greater part of the old "Siskiyou" all of the "Coquille" and part of tho "Klamath," and will contain 1,305, 657 acres. It Is located In Jackson, Curry and Coos counties. This for est will be administered by Super visor M. J. Anderson with headquar ters at Grants Pass, Oregon. All "of the old "Tillamook" and "Umpqua" forests, except the south ern portion of the old "Umpqua," . embracing 1973,918 acres, will bo known as the Sluslaw National For est. This forest is located in Tilla mook, Lane, Douglas, Coos, Lincoln, Polk, and Yamhill counties. Super visor A. E. Cohoon will administer this forest with headquarters at Eu gene, Oregon. The Wallowa Is the forest former ly known as the "Imnaha." It con tains 1,750,240 acres and Is located In Wallowa county. This forest will continue to be under the administra tion of Supervisor Howard K. O'Brien with headquarters at Wallowa, Oregon. The Forest Service desires to re duce tho area ot the average ad ministrative units to approximately l.uOO.OOO acres. This was not 'pos sible in all cases as is shown by tho fact that under the plan of redisrict ing there will be 'l44 supervisors in the United States who will adminis ter more than 167,000,000 acres ot National forests.
