Editor Tidings: The boosters went to the depot about thirty strong, be ing assured that fifteen dollars would be ample money to take along. Everybody was in the best of spirits. E. V. Carter, thinking that fifteen dollars was not necessary, only brought fourteen seventy-nine. The boosters lined up to get their tickets, and when the S. P. knocked a twelve-dollar-and-slx-bit hole in each fifteen the "tightwad" expression became very evident on the bunch. Only $2.2! left and not out of town yet. On board the train a meeting was hurriedly called to discuss the mat ter, and it was decided to get a stretcher. The stretcher was pro- ured, and E. V. Carter, trying to bring his balance up to par with the rest of the bunch, busted it and the proposition had to he abandoned. All went well until bedtime. We had on board two gentlemen, C. W. Banta and F. G. McWllliams. who had never been on a sleeper before. Mc went to bed first. Banta, taking pointers, finally got sleepy. Stepping over to Vaupel's berth, he said to him, confidentially, "Do you get in these things the same as a bed?" Vaupel said "Yes. Why do you ask?" Banta said he looked in Mc- Williams' berth and that Mi: was in the hammock. Finally the "shelves" all got filled up and the sounds that began to come forth would make a buzzsaw going through a pine knot ashamed of itself. About 3 o'clock a. m. there seemed to be someone in distress. Upon lo cating the trouble (we will mention no name ) we found the party crying for his soda water bottle. About 6 o'clock a. m. Staples looked down the aisle. We had on board several gen tlemen with very high foreheads. One of the gentlemen happened to be looking out at the same time. Sta ples, getting confused with the lights in the car, thought it was sun up, so he swung his propellers out in the aisle from the upper shelf. It is the habit of a chicken when they first get up and stretch, to stick their feet straight out and draw their toes to gether. Staples' habits are just op posite. (That's a bum habit for a sleeping car.) One of the bunch lost his hat, but it is sometimes best, that what happens away from home Is best to keep away from home. ABSOLUTELY. Colds and Croup in Children. Many people rely upon Chamber lain's Cough Remedy implicitly In cases of colds and croup, and it never disappoints them. Mrs. E. T. Thomas, Logansport, Ind., writes: "I have found Chamberlain's Cough Remedy to be the best medicine for colds and croup I have ever used, and never tire of recommending It to my neigh bors and friends. I have always giv en it to my children when suffering from croup, and It has never failed to give them prompt relief." For sale by all dealers. An Instance.

Consequently the "Heathen Chinee" Took No Chances. An Englishman who was appointed to an important post in China got mar riid soon after. Among the recipients of the usual little cardboard bo?es containing a piece of wedding cake was a Chinese merchant with whom the bridegroom had nn outstanding ac count for goods supplied. After the honeymoon one of the first persons the newly wedded husbnnd met was his celestial creditor. "And bow did you like the cake?" said the Englishman laughingly, after the usual congratulations. "Ah. ha!" returned the Chluiinmn. with a cunning leer. "Me no such big fool to eat him. sah. Me put enkee In tire. Burn him up. He. lie!" "Oil. that's too bad!" said the Eng lishman, very much hurt "You might have tasted It at least, out of compli ment to my wife and myself. Why didn't ypuT ' "Me too clute. sah." said the celes tial, with the same cunning smile. "You owe uie monce. sah; sendee poison cakee: I eat him; I die; you no payee up! Iloupla! He, he. he! 1 know your Ingleesh!" Exchange. Karlsbad. The question as to how to spell the name of a watering place in Bohemia was submitted by a New York woman to a resident of the spa. The answer did not decide the point, but it afford ed those who were Interested some amusement "The place is naming aft er a name which by you is Charles," says the writer. "No person will be deceive t Carl or Earl is writen. Each one is entire right So your letter with Carlsbad will come equal time as with Karlsbad addres. Us business people care us very little of the name how it is spelling." The evident de sire on the part of the writer to be on both sides of the question was frus trated, however, by the printed letter head, which had "Karlsbad" on the date line and contained in a corner also the legend. "English spoken." New York Tribune. Best Side of a Cemetery. Probably few people know that there is a choice side to every cemetery. Thus in some parts of the world the eastern portion, without regard to its situatiou. is always deemed the roost desirable- This preference arises from the old tradition that our Lord will appear from the enst. It Is also be lieved that the dead In the eastern por tion will be the first to rise, then those In the southern, western and northern In order. In England it was once the custom of laying felons and other bad characters on the north side of the .church. The custom of laying the dead in a certain direction Is responsible for the Welsh designation for the east wind. "The wind of the dead men's feet" I-ocdon Express. Caste and Diet In India. The private secretary f the mahara jab of Jbalawar gave a lecture on food in London. In the course of which be stated that the eating of onions Is con ducive to "darkness of spirit" He also averred that the caste system In India is largely regulated by diet Thus, those of the highest caste only eat vegetarian meals in order to keep their souls pure. Members of another caste are allowed to eat meat so that they may become fitted to be warriors, while the lowest caste of all eat "stale, flat foods." which suit their unspir Ituat natures.

Why and how it has happened that the apple bus been spoken of as the fruit that was forbidden in the Garden of Eden is one of the great puzzles of biblical scholars. The fact is that in Genesis ill., where the incident of the eating of this fruit i of the "tree of knowledge of good and evil" is men tioned, no name whatever Is given to that fruit. All that Is said Is: "And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that It was pleasant to the eyes, und a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and dtd eat. and gave also unto her husliand with her; und he did eat." (Verse C. In fact, scholars doubt very seriously whether it was the apple at nil. They suggest that all evidence points to it having been the quince, the fragrance of which was held iu the highest esteem by the Orientals. Another point in favor of the quince is that it is the fruit which was sacred to Venus, the goddess of love, and In a great many of the ancient writings the quince Is very frequently mentioned in this man ner. In Babylonia Ishtar took the place of Venus in the Itoman mytho logy, and it should be remembered that the story of the creation orlgiuated with the Babylonians. All evidence seems to point away from the apple having been the "forbidden fruit" and toward the quince as having been that fruit of the "tree of knowledge of good and evil."-Tit-Bits. The Sleep of Horses. When the horse sleeps, it is said that one ear Is directed forward, why is not known. A writer iu the English Mechanic thinks this is to guard against danger, being a survival of its originally wild habits. He says: "Watch a horse asleep through the window of his stable and make a faint noise at the front That ear will be all atten tion, and probably the other will fly around sharply to assist Now let him go to sleep again nod make the same noise to the left The forward ear still will keep guard, with possibly a light ning flick round, only to resume its former position." The Lost Dime. A mas sent his neighbor's little boy to the drug store to buy five postage stamps. He handed him two dimes, the extra one being for himself. Some time afterward the boy came back blubbering and said he hud lost one of the dimes. "But why didu't you buy me the stamps?" asked the man. "Because, mister." replied the boy, "It was your dime 1 lost" Judge. Poor Scheme. Crawford Why don't yon try jolly ing your wife a little?

Buckner was arrested Monday at Grants Pass on charges preferred by Portland authorities, after he had ingratiated himself in the good graces of citizens of that city by posing as being sent by the state highway commission to map out a route for the Pacific Highway "down the Applegate via Jackson ville to Medford," Instead of down the Rogue as originally planned. Other concessions were to be given the Josephine county metrpolis. Buckner posed as "Lieutenant Marshall," and being a civil engineer by profession, talked Intelligently of road construction. This appealed to the good road enthusiasts of that city, and they mothered him and his plans until an officer came from Portland with warrants and pictures of the i in poster in prison stripes.
