That the high cost of living hag forced many people of thrift to the extremity of begging for clothing for their children because their enrnin?s are exhausted In paying for food, fuel and rent, was the statement of Mrs. Herman Falkcnstcln, head of tho Ksther Kalkensteln Settlement House, 1917 Humboldt street, at a meet ing of the woman's club of the Institu tion. "The extreme cost of living Is a very ferloiin matter with my people." de clared Mrs. Kiilkentiteln, who has devot ed ( years to settlement work In the northwest neighborhood. "You would he surprised to know what people come to me and ask If I tan help them with clothing people who are self respecting and usually well provided with the ne cessities of life, but who have been dragged lower and lower until they can not help themselves. There are many pirls who have to wear the same coat nnd dress on Sundays and evenings that they wear to werk In the daytime erythlng goes to pay for food. Con dltionfl are getting worse.

Well, for an Ore- gonlan, they certainly are bad enough. but we have a new comer, a traveling man, who is at present representing a local wholesale grocery house, Mr. G. E. Schuneman, who comes from Min nesota, where he traveled on one ter ritory for eight years. He tells us to cut out our kicking. He tells us that our roads are tip top, as 'compared to the Minnesota roads. which have no bottom at all, during soft weather, and as for climate, well, he says. Just imagine starting out for 40-mlle drive with the mercury at 40 degrees below zero. And then con sider an Oregon mist, or storm if you prefer, with mercury at 25 'to 35 above. He says no more Minnesota for him. as long as there Is an Oregon coast climate like wo have' now, even if the boys do kick. Let us cut it out. Boost. Oregon is all right, and within a few days we will have forgotten all about it. How do you like Clyde Evans' T. P. A. column In the Sunday Journal?

Its a ques tion which the landlords should attend to without the. law. There are also a number of hotels where the nine-foot heet Is not the only thing that is lack ing. It should not be wrong for trav eling men to voice their opinions in a matter which so concerns them. Pos- ibly if some landlords would Investi gate their business they would not need to ask so often why we do not stay all night. The "Golden Knie" fits in most everywhere and would work in especial ly well in some hotel conditions. How ever, there are many places where the acommodations are first-class and they are the ones who do the business, for the traveling man Is quick to appreciate and when he does he boosts. hotel keepers express approval of the two measures, and where they have not already complied with the law they are equipping their beds and buildings as fast as possible.

Besides mis, mey will pitch tneir tent for a couple of days each near Winnipeg, To ronto, Ottawa, Quebec and Montreal, so that they shall be able to meet their cousins, the Canadian Boy Scouts, of whom there are already many hundreds enrolled. They will take their tents, blankets and kit in a small trek cart. which they will haul themselves, and during the whole of tho visit will fend for themselves. t will be interesting to see how the i backwoodsmanship and the pioneering learned among the green fields of Eng land will serve these young adventurers in tho rough and tumble life of the wilder parts of Canada.

A New Tork dispatch, under data Of November 26. 1909. to one of th great leading dally newspapers of the country, states tnat As Consumption Lessens Kidney Troubles Grow New Tork, Nov. 26. The vagaries of disease are interestingly shown in a little pamphlet gotten out by a life insurance company, wherein tables of Increases apd decreases give some knowledge Of how, when we are freed of one malady, an other Increases. For Instance, in the whole United States consump tion has decreased 49 per cent since 1880, but, offsetting this, aldny troubles have Increased 1S1 per cent 1st the same period. Chicago's kidney troubles have gone up to 167 per cent, and Chicago Is down for an Increase of 85 per cent of deaths from pneumonia. There are every day $,500,090 persons 111 In the United States. This la the grim record that con fronts every man, woman and child, according 10 me ngures ana state ments of medical experts and scien tists. What, then, are the conclusions to be drawn? Do not these facts con stitute a condition calculated to strike terror to the stoutest heart espe cially with any individual who has the slightest reason to suspicion that he or she is afflicted with even the mildest form or Initial stage of any itianey aisoraeri . And even when one has reason only to believe that tie or sne is predls ros to this class of ailments through hereditary or other causes), can too jgreat precaution and care be taken that the too frequent dire con sequences or neglected Kidney Dis ease be averted? Now, friends, let tu stop and think for few minutes. We must all do this sometimes If we have a proper care and consideration forour own health and happiness, and the welfare and happiness of tho loved ones de pendent upon us.
