Their little feet are never quiet and even after they have been put to bed and carefully tucked away Into slumber land, they move about in a dreamland of hills and valleys filled with sweet flowers and tamed animals of the for ests and Jungles and plains. They live all the time they are awake and dream their lives while asleep. The pictures above which show them bathing their tired, hot feet In the cool ing 'waters of , a pool in the city park, feeding the bears at the park and watch ing the funny antics of the monkeys, only portray a few Of the things they do In the course of the day. Their quick, acttve minds conjure up more games which their untiring little bodies Indulge In throughout the day than the j camera man could snap in a week. For the man who labors throngb six , days, leaving him tired and dull at tha end, Sunday comes as' a boon. Jlany of them hie away - to the woodav churches and fishing streams, .but tv others the plasa is the chief attraction.; Her they can loll about in lasy pleasure, Tvlng for silent company . every 'man and woman who passes by Sitting on titer hard benches becomes a pleasure .when . one can view a multitude passing-to and, fro. The contemplation of Human faces and forms has ever bees the greatest attraction devised for man, and those who occupy the seats in thef "city's breathing spot have the greatest oppor tunity to indulge la it to their hearts content. ' - Portland has hundreds of coot, shaded spots where her cttlsens can go for a rest. The pictures show a few of them . and the manner in which they are seed.

The measures enacted by the last ses sion of ,the Texas legislature are not tq coma, into force until July 11. The most important of the new laws in the Lone Star state, or the one of most general interest, Is that which requires the life Insurance , companies doing Business in tne state to invest 76 per eant of the. reserve on Texas business In Texas securities and deposit them with the state treasurer.

In their place are to be two boards of five members each, all of whom are appointed by the governor, and these boards are to have complete control of the regulations governing the transportation and lighting facilities of the. state. It will be for them to com- per all corporations to give safe and adequate service at lust and reasonable rates; to prevent all rebates and dls- . criminations: to compel all commnn . riers to have sufficient ears and motive Cower, ana to see mat uiey be held specifically liable for loss or damage due: tdulelay occasioned by negligence.
