ira waae returned trom nis
legislative work at Salem Saturday.
The time spent in that city has been
worth much to Ira in the way of
learning and besides, he there
secured treatment much needed for
his hearing. Hence hi is much
pleased that circumstances called
him there. He will now turn his
attention again . to the old home
farm.
The Marion county election fraud
cases are on trial at Salem this
week. Reports say the court room
is crowded constantly and no case
ever tried in Salem caused so great
excitement. The way of the trans
gressor is hard, but as the directions
are plain, he must take it and
growl not. If there has been fraud
the guilty parties of whatever
political complexion should be
j puuished.
I. J. Pepin, or 'Bill" as our

a trader in our city. May his
shadow never grow less.
Uncie Ailen Parker, one of the

Mackey were Sabbath visitors in
this city. We didn't see them at
church, but might have missed
them in the throng.
Ed Schmeer, our city landlord,
visited Yaquina Monday night,
going there to accompany his little
daughter Myrtle home. She has
been visiting at the home of T. W.
Gorman for over a week.
A few days since Attorney Harry
Denlinger quietly slipped away to
Independence and the first news we
hear of him is tha. he is all swelled
up with happiness over a ten-pound
boy. ' Mother and son doing nicely.
"The boys" started out Monday
evening to seranade Stony Wells,
but no Stony was to be - found.
They played their tunes amid the
squalls of wind and showers of rain
at several places in town, but . had
to give it up without having found
their man.
Do not let your child acquire the
habit of grumbling. Stop the first
beginnings and it will never be
come a habit. If there is just
cause of complaint, try to remedy
it; ifthereisno possibility of im
provement, teach that silent endur
ance is the best way to meet the
inevitable. It is never wise to
stay in a place and grumble. If
the things you dislike "cannot be
altered, change your environment.
If on reflection you decide that,
balancing one thing with another
you would rather bear the ills you
know than fly to others that you
know not of, bear th'era in silence.
Ladies', Home Journal.
King Solomon a Warm Number.
An Illinois boy was asked to
write an essay on Masonry, and
here is. what he. wrote: "King
Solomon was a man who lived so
many years in the country that he
was the whole push.1 He was an
awful wise man and one day two
women came to him, each holding
to the Jeg of a baby and nearly
pulling it in two and each claiming
it. And .King Solomon wasn't
feeling right good and he said:
'Why couldn't the brat have been
twins and stopped this bother?'
And then he called for his machete
and was going to Weylerize the
poor, innocent baby, and give each
woman a piece of it. Then the
real mother of the baby said: 'Stop,
Solomon; stay thy, hand. If I
can't have a whole baby I won't
have any.' Then Solomon told
her to take the baby and wash its
face, for be knew it was hers. He
told the other woman to chase
herself. He built Solomon's temple
and was the father of Masons. lie
had several hundred wives and three
hundred lady friends, and that's
why there are so many Masons in
the world. My pa says King Solo
mon was a warm number and I
think so my self."
