MOTHERS SPOIL DAUGHTERS.
Many mothers iniaulne that their
daughter's fortune Is" made when she
learns enough to thump on a piano
or labors enough to daub i cheap
chromo, or to work a yellow dog on a
door mat. tJIrls are too glad to be
spoiled that way; teach them to com
mand a regiment of pots and kettles
teach them to make good bread, good
coffee; teach them to make garment
and patch them when they need It
Teach them physical development;
teach them It Is more cruel nnd less
Christian for American women to
cramp and destroy their lungs, liver
and stomach, than It Is for the Hot
tentots to press their head'" Mat. or
for the Chinese to make their feet
small. Good, healthy and industrious
girls make happy homes, good wives
and mothers.

THE PROOF AT HAND.
The Warrior Rock ice gorge, now
holding three great ocean-going
steamships In Its relentless grasp
midway between North Head and
"the Port of Portland," Is all that Is
needed to prove the pre-eminent claim
of Astoria, as a safe, convenient, ac
cessible, unhampered port of entry and
dispatch, for sea-gulng bottoms. Her
last limit of anchorage and docking
berths - Is but two brief hours from
"blue water," and the fleets of the
universe can be accommodated here. If
she. were on her proper and natural
commercial plane, all the Ice-gorges
back on Tongue Point In the Colum
bia, would be nothing t othe mariner
cargoing here. He would be certain
of his quick dispatch the instant his
hatches were battened down, and the
weary delay of the 110 miles towage
to and from a cramped and Insuffi
cient harborage, twelve miles up a
tributary stream, (let alone the ex
traordinary expense of the Inland
Journey) would be obviated. The day
of Astoria Is dawning; and the ice
In the Columbia this season may be
a blessing In disguise, aiding mater
ially in swinging the commerce of the
Columbia basin to its Ideal and nat
ural port. The Hill road down' the
northbank will be another eye-opener,
and the folly of the years may be real
ized by the shippers who have suffered
so long from Imposition. Time and
money and business sagacity will find
their level at Astoria, sooner, not lat
er, for the demonstration made at
Warrior Rock.
KINGSTON.
The name of this old West Indian
capital will have a new and terrible
significance, born of the horrors of
death and loss thrust upon It by the
earthquake of last week. It is a ro
mantle old town, beautifully located
and has a history of no Inconspicuous
sort, running duck tnrough the re
cent centuries. Its last frightful ex
perience will give U a world-wide
name now and It will be quoted for
ever In the history of seismic troubles.
The sympathy of the world is directed
Kingston-way now, in very generous
fashion.

THE WEEK IN
ASTORIA 'SOCIETY
"Man was made of Social lO.lrth,
Child and brother from his Will.
Tethered by a liquid cord
Of blood, thru' veins of kindred
poured."
"Paemenlc I.ovo."
PART AND PARCEL.
When the rails for a northnhore line
find their terminal at the mouth of
the Columbia river, and Astoria has
demanded, and been awarded the common-point
rate on the grain of the
Northwest, It would be wholly con
sonant that a big and flourishing
plant for car-building should be in
full operation here. The whole scheme
would dove-tall admirably and serve
manifold purposes. Railway extension
on this coast Is In Its Infancy Just
now and Its expansion will call for
such an industrial departure right
here. Astoria might as well be in the
van of such a movement, as to per
mit the cream of such on Investment
to pass by to other points not one
whit better prepared to Inaugurate
It than she it. There is meat In this
proposition if the right men look for
it, and the quicker the better. The
hazard of such an enterprise is prac
tically nil.
o
BLOOD FOR BLOOD.
The railways of the country have
bled the people long and unconscion
ably, and if the legislatures shall do
a bit of counter-bleeding, It may open
the eyes of the corporate thieves a lit
tie and tend to mitigate the whole
sale system of robbery. It may bring
them to their senses and make It plain
to them that the universe was ere
ated for some other purpose than the
fattening of combines. Never in Ore
gon's railway record was the time so
propitious for the clear-cut adjustment
of abuses; and if it is permitted to
pass unused, the people will not for
give the men responsible for the op
portunity so abandoned. The rail
ways have passed the romantic stage
and period of country-building; they
are In the commercial saddle and rid
ing everything and everybody down,
rough-shod, and that they are yet
within the pale of the law is no fault
EDITORIAL SALAD.
It may not be generally known
among American girls who go or hope
to go abroad that there is in Merlin
an American Woman's club, founded
In 1S94. Mrs. Charlemagne Tower,
wife of the American ombassador, is
Its president, and Mrs. John Cleves-Symnv-
its treasurer. Clubs of this
sort are Invaluable to girls traveling
or studying abroad, and, as the year
ly subscription is small in this case
only $2.50 a membership presents
no insuperable difficulties. The club
is at 11 Kleist strasse W., Berlin, Germany.
Harry Woodruff, star of "Brown of
Harvard," a former sweetheart of
Anna Gould, is going to marry the
Countess Castellane. Some years ago
Woodruff was engaged to marry Anna
Gould, it is said. An arrangement
was made to send him to Harvard uni
versity for a more complete education
than he possessed. The Gould for
tune was placed at his disposal and
an agreement executed that he would
not make any attempt to marry the
daughter of Jay Gould until after he
was graduated. When Anna Gould met
Count Castellane, Woodruff was Jilted.
' Nor knowest thou what argument
Thy life to thy neighbor's creed has
lent :
All ure needed by each one.
Nothing Is fair, or. good, alone,
"Kach and All."
Thrifty and complacent, our City-by-the-Sea
has moved on In the even
tenor of Its way. despite the unusual
ly rigorous clutch of the Ice King.
Sheathed In armour of furs und
bright woolens, and exhlleruted by the
quick spur of the blood, the fairest
and daintiest braved their pretty skins
to the snow and Ice. Long disused '
skates, possibly relics of Eastern good 1
times, again saw service, and new ones
galore shipped for a ready sale. The '
Interchange of social compliments
brought the usual response to Invi
tations. And there Is to be "marrying
and giving in marriage" ere another
nioon. Astoria is to lose one of Its
sweetest and brightest young glrli to
gain a charming young matron, when
the marriage will occur of Miss Mvji
Fredrlckson and Mr. John Tyson Al
len, the eldest son of one of Astoria's
oldest and most prominent families, a
successful young business man of this
city. Miss Fredrlckson, who Is the
laughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thorvald
Fredrlckson, has for several seasons
charmed music lovers by her skil
ful and delicate Interpretations on her
instrument, the violin, which she has
studied seriously here and abroad.
Miss Fredrlckson has also been the
.successful teacher and director of an
orchestra composed of young girls an I
boys of this city. It Is hoped t nut
her new responsibilities will not de
prive the public of this pleasure, so
much appreciated. The following In
vitation was Issued this week to many
friends of the young couple:

There is a fear that civilization may
eventually wipe out the wild flowers of
our country. Slowly but surely we
are depriving them of their wild re
treats. Unless we do all in our power
to preserve and propagate every spe
cies, we may rest assured that a few
centuries hence many of our beauti
ful wild flowers will no longer be the
common wild flowers of America. Can
we not all become members of a great
society for the preservation of our
wild flowers? The only requirements
are that we never wilfully destroy a
harmless flower, that we do all in our
power to protect and propagate spe
cies and that we instill in our chil
dren these same principles of loving
and preserving Nature's gifts.
A specialist in corsets says that the
figure this year is higher than that
of last year. And the indications show
that next year's figure will be higher
busted still. This, however, does not
Infer that the corset of that shape
pushes the figure out of place or
brings the woman who has Just begun
to feel her freedom Into trammels
again. It merely means that a woman
must learn to stretch her body and
stiffen her muscles. As the chest Is
raised and the muscles grow tense,
you will have all the requirements for
a high corset.
Medicine for Children.
In buying a cough medicine for
children, never be afraid to buy Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. There is no
danger from it, and relief is always
sure to follow. It is Intended espe
cially for coughs, colds, croup and
whooping cough, and there is no bet
ter medicine in the world for these
diseases. It is not only a certain cure
for croup, but, when given as soon as
the croupy cough appears, will pre
vent the attack. Whooping cough is
not dangerous when this remedy is
given as directed. It contains no opium
or other harmful drugs, and may be
given as confidently to a baby as to
an adult. For sale by Frank Hart and
leading druggists.

In Chicago.
The following dispatch has been re
ceived from Chicago (Jan. 10th): Miss
Elsie Elmore, of Astoria, Oregon, is
spending a month in Chicago with
Miss Grace Hills, 4'j:'5 Iake Avenue.
She Is to be a bridesmaid at ih wed

Miss Elsie, whose vivacity and
charm are popular adjuncts of Astoria
society during the greater part of the
year, was Miss Hill's room-mate at
the finishing school of Mrs. Somers, In
Washington, D. C.
The parents of Miss Edna Dorothy
Price, of Portland, received a most
welcome surprise in the premature
arrival of their daughter, who has
been absent for about a year in Peru.
Miss Price went to Peru with some
friends and stopped fim In Callo, then
In Montevidio, and afterwards In
Iqueque, visiting. A letter which she
wrote recently to her people Informed
them that she would be home some
time in February. But the big Brlt- '
ih steamer, Condor, on which she
took passage, was forced to stop for
coal at Astoria, so Miss Price, by un
dergoing a slight legal formality, was
enabled to finish her long Journey In a
much shorter time, which she did by
taking the A. & C. R. Portland bound, ed music, which added to the gener

For at least four days, during tho
past week, a merry mob of pb-asuro
seekers hied themselves to Lake Smith,
Sklpanon, taking advantage of the
rare freeze-up we have Just exper

sport of skating. To those who had
never before rolled on ice-skates, no
less than the many Astorlans who
have known the annual return of all
the familiar winter frolfclnga of the
East or even Canada and Nova Sco
