KEEP THE BOYS AND GIRLS
HOME.
AT
In an editorial on the county
school question the Stayton Mall hits
the nail on the head. It is not al
always lack of money that
stands In the way of the farmer
sending his children to the city to
attend high school. More often it
is a fear that the young folks, horn
and bred on the farm with its free
dom from restraint, its naturalness,
its strong home ties will lose their
heads in the city, pass from the con
trol of their parents, and acquire
Iiablts that they would not if they
remained on the farm or In the coun-
try schools. With the county high
school plan, which provides that the
county court may contract with ex
isting schools to educate all comers,
a majority of the boys and girls ot
tho farms can attend some school so
near home that they can travel back
and forth night and morning. In
some cases tho child will be absent
from home the entire week but Fri
day night will find him back under
tho parental roof and subject to those
uplifting and saving influences that
are found only where mother love
roigns.
Following Is the comment of the
Stayton Paper:
"Wo are pleased to noto that Marl
on county Is to have tho opportunity
of voting on the county high school
proposition in November of this year.
This matter needs the immediate,
careful and conscientious Investiga
tion of every voter in this county.
Bo not loathe to Investigate this
proposition and lend iovery legitimate
effort to Its assured success. In tho
carrying of this measure in Marlon
county you sot an example before
tho world that you stand in tho rank
for offering higher education to our
boys and girls.
It Is not always a matter of finance
that deters a boy or girl from ob
taining a high school or collego edu
cation. It Is tho stern fact that tho
iparcnts do not like to permit of tho
child going from tho pnrontal care
befora they have nttained to tho ad
vanced ngo when others having hot
tor opportunities for education havo
outstripped thorn in all linos. It is
then, that tho boy or girl fools reluc
iant in entering tho high schools,
universities or colleges throughout
tho country to vlo with thoso of
other sections in the gaining of
fcnowlodgo. '

WHERE WILL COLD-BLOODED
SCIENCE TAKE US?
The example of modern adaptation
of conditions to the needs of life is
related by Frank G. Carpenter In
telling of his African travels. He
says:
"I have had excellent tea which I
brewed with hot water from the loco
motive. At jneal times the black boy
who 13 in charge of the car brought
me a kettle and I made my tea with
tea pills. I wonder if you have ever

pocket. A little box of sweetening;
living opportunity Is given for use
of the ready-to-use style of foods.
The revolution It would signify when
carried to its utmost limit is amazing
to contemplate. Like the equality
that will become the lot of those who
'spell English words after the slm-
pllfled spelling reformers have com
pleted their work there will be no
distinction between the ability of
cooks, and all will occupy a common
and serene plane. Whether that will
seem another blow at the marriage
custom or if it would stimulate the
ambition in that direction depends,
on one's point of view regarding the
importance of the position the cater
er'3 art holds in the domestic home.
The extremists who believe we
eat to live, not live to eat, look hope
fully to the point where science will
extract the nourishment from food,
In advance and present the vital ele
ments In such condensed form for
consumption that the human system
will find a largo number of its ne
cessary organs are no longer worth
the room they occupy
If their ex
pectatlon is sustained the doom of
the vermiform appendix may only be
tho beginning of the explorations the
surgeon's knives will take.
But who would really want to ex
change the thralldom of a table of
"grub," the mental picture of which
is enough to start the gastric juices
into activity, for an era, when a pill
or a tablet would be relied on for the
strictly practical purpose of keeping
tho human machinery working?
It might save some of the present
woes but it would eliminate to a
humiliating degree the joys that
make life worth living.
CIVIC INSURANCE.
By tho terms of a contract enter
ed into thirty-one years ago betweon
Lyman Jennings, then fifty-nine
years old, and tho town of Athol,
Massachusetts, ho gave tho town
$9,000 outright on its agreement to
pay him Interest on It at six per cent
as long as ho lived $540 a year
and then to eontlnuo after his death
to pay to his widow ?1S0 a year and
to each of his three children $120
a year, an amount eqnnl to that
which Jennings would recelvo yearly
during his lifetime, as long as eah
of these four heirs might live. Tho
results of tho contract aro be!n,j
widely commented upon as a ruin
ously reckless deal by that thrifty
Now England town. Tho "select
men" decided to tako up with Jen
nings" offor nfter applying tho fig
ures of a life Insurance mortuary
table to tho flvo proposed benoflcl

Instead of fourteen and a half years
that thoy had credited him with.
Tho town meantime had paid out to
him ?1C,200; his wife and ono
daughtor now survive him and tho
town is paying them together $300
a year and must continue to pay ono
$1S0 a year and tho other $1,20 so
long ns each lives. In other words,
it is now getting tho use of $9000
for only about 3 1-3 per cent Inter-

PEOPIik "STALL TALK.
You may get through the world, but
'twill be very slow,
If you listen to all that is said as
you go;
You'll be worried and fretted and
kept in a stew
For meddlesome tongues must have
something to do.
And people will talk.
If quiet and modest, you'll have it
presumed
That your humble position is only
assumed
You're a wolf In sheep's clothing, or
else you're a fool,
But don't get excited; keep perfect
ly cool
For people will talk.
And then, If you show the least bold
ness of heart,
Or a slight disposition to take your
own part,
They call you an upstart, conceited
and vain;
But keep straight ahead; don't stop
to explain.
For people will talk.
If threadbare your dress, or
old-
fashioned your hat,
Some person will surely taken no
tice of that,
And hint rather strong that you can't
pay your way;
But don't get excited, whatever you
say
For people will talk.
If you dress in the fashion, don't
think to escape,
For they criticise then In a different
shape;
You're ahead of your means, or
your tailor's unpaid,
But mind your own business, there's
naught to be made,
For people will talk.
Now; the best way to do Is to do as
you please,
For your mind, If you have one, will
then be at -ease.
Of course, you will meet with all
sorts of abuse,
But don't think to stop it it's real
ly no use
For people will talk.
ANON.
Whatever you do, don't play horse
with your friends.

A pup Is a friendly as a candidate
two days before election.
When a man falls In love with a
woman, all the other women make
fun of his taste.
When a big, strong, powerful look
ing man smiles and shows dimples in
his cheeks, It looks funny.
There Is nothing people admire
more than a man and his wife who
aro in love with each other.
Talk flvo minutes with any man
confidentially and you will find he
has been robbed by somebody.
A man never appreciates the value
of his wife until he wants to use her
as an excuse for not going to war.
You can learn something from the
baby. A baby Is good natured In the
morning when others aro grouchy.
Wo havo seen, some sort of a card
game wherein thoso engaged play
"for safety." After a man passes
50, and oven before, ho should play
for safety In tho game of life.
There Is no mark on a man to In
dicate whether ho has been married,
or how often. A man Is so built that
In this. But suppose Jennings had
put that $9000 In a good savings
bank back In 1877 He would have
drawn $540 a year on It for at least
fifteen years or so, and after that
only flvo per cent or four per cent
or perhaps ns low at 3 per cent at
times; but on an avorago Interest of
4Vj por cent for tho full period ho
would havo drawn $12,500 in all, and
his wldpw and daughter would now
bo drawing four per cent on It or
$300 a year instead of $300 and bo-
sides this they, not tho town, would
own the $9000! Lyman Jennings
wasn t nearly so good a "ilgerer ' as
tho town of Athol was, after all.

Laws of Love.
Carolyn Wells glve3 the following
laws of love, which may be Interest
ing to the debutantes this winter:
"Be sure you're right, then lose
your head.
"A ring on the hand is worth two
at the door.
"A fool and his money are soon
married.
"A little debutante is a dangerous
thing.
"Proposals make cowards of us all.
"There Is no fool like a bold fool.
"The longest way round is the
sweetest way home.
"One kiss deserves another. I
" 'Tis love that makes the man
come 'round. ,
"Kisses speak louder than words.
"He gloves best whose love lasts.
"People who live in glass houses
shouldn't hold hands. :
"The woman who deliberates
is
won.
"Where there's a will there's
wedding.
MY PILLOWMOBILE.
'Tis my delight,
In the depths of night,
To speed in my Pillow Car;
To usance perchance
Through sunny France,
Perhaps to the Polar Star.
I linger long
In th'e Hills of Song,
I travel to Mandelay;
I board my ship
And take a trip
To glorious Yesterday.
My Pillow train
Will jump from Spain
To Saturn, perhaps the Moon;
Then take the track
That leads me back
To the Home of Eternal June.
Through old Japan,
Beloochistan,
And Tibet and gay Pekln;
And thence we creep
Through the vasty deep
To the haunts of the Tribes of Fin.
My Pillow Car's
Been up to Mars
It travels both earth and air;
And, like the wind,
It leaves behind
The City of Woe and Care.
So come with me,
On a pillowy spree,
For the Land of Dreams awheel;
Through sky and earth,
To joy and mirth,
In my wonderful Plllowmoblle.

NOT SELF WORKING.
No odds how flno tho scheme may be,
How promising and fair,
How certain of a marked success,
How largely on tho square, (
It will not bring In dollars nor
Put poverty to rout
Nor mako ub Independent If
We never try It out.
The plan may look as flno as silk
And ready to produce
In fact, a trlplo plated cinch
Too allele for any use
But net results will not produce
Enough to buy a hat
While wo but dream about tho plan
And let it go at that.
Indeed, In looking o'er our schemes
Quite rosy and select
Thoso that wo try do not pan out
Tho way that wo expect.
So it Is useless and. In fact,
A waste of tlmo to try
Collecting on tho ones unborn
And billed for by and by.
How very lovely it would be
If wo had but to draw
Upon tho storehouse of our mind
For schemes without a flaw
And, looking through them, could se
lect The ones that looked the best
And sit back In our easy chair
And let them do tho restl
Tho Fact Struck Him.
"Ho learned a
lot of things ho

"YeS; he never

Sort of Remembered Him.
Thero was great excitement at Miss
Chrlstabel's refined summer resort.
Tho girls had gathered nround ono who
was talking iu an animated tone, and
the Interest was Intense
"Yes," sho said, "I know Just exact
ly what they aro Ilko."
"Oh, do descrlbo ono!" sang all the
other girls In chorus.
They were talking about a man, gen
tle render. That was all.
