She tells about it herself, about her change in standards of house building, as she chased this question of taste around the circle, as a cat chases its tail, and finally came out at the house she was born in and lived in all her life. It is not only amusing as a story, but Phoebe goes through all of the stages that we all go through before we land upon the safe ground of good taste in house and furniture.

Joseph Barker, n pioneer of the Pacific coast, died suddenly at his homo In this place Sunday, from a paralytic stroke. Mr. Barker was born In Waterloo, Iowa, and was 69 years of age. He crossed the plains in 1864, and settled In the Willamette valley, where he purchased a ranch and lived until 11 years ago. He then came to Cathlamet and had since held numerous positions In lod ging camps hereabouts. Mr. Barker was a man of remarkable natural abil ity and as a writer of both prose and poetry was surpassed by few. He was also prominent In the order of Red men and his services were always in demand at all festive and other occa sions of the order. Funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock tomorrow un der the auspices of the local lodge of Redmen. He was a bachelor and had no near relatives. SHOULD WOMEN VOTE No one who keeps posted on the great work being done by women in professional and business life, and, most Important of all. In the American home can for a moment doubt that they would vote wisely. ; If they would only guard their own healthy as carefully as they do their children's they could accomplish even more. One woman who knows how neces sary it is to stay well Is Mrs. Her man of North Birmingham Alo,). Her daughter. Miss Nona, says In a letter: "We have used Vinol In our family for four years. Whenever my mother gets a bad cold or feels weak and run-down she always uses Vinol and it makes her well again. She says Vinol always gives her strength and builds her up." This delicious cod liver and, iron remedy without oil is so certain to curs up chronic coughs, and build up weak, run-down, sickly people of all ' ages, that we sell It under a positive promise to give back your money If Vinol dos not satisfy you. Try Vinol. Woodard. Clarke & Co., druggists, Portland, Or. Holding Up High Cards at Bridge. A Long Salt Without lie-Entries Is Worthless. INNUMERABLE tricks are lost at bridge, by an anxiety on the part of the dealer to take command of the game as soon as possible. That Is all very well If the dealer sees mat by taking the first trick he can win the game oj at least the odd, but there are many times when It will pay much bet ter to allow the adversaries to win the first trick or even the second, if by so doing the dealer will still retain com mand of their suit while perhaps one of the opponents has become void in it and cannot return It to his- strong part ner. Here is an instance of a perfectly logical holdup: DUMMY. H A, 8, 4. O K. Q, J, S. D K, 9, 7. B A, Q, 0. LEADER. PONES. H-8, 6, 8. H Q. 10, . u o, a. a, i, o, D A. J. 10. 8. 4. J. I Q. , 8. S , 8. 8 K, 8, 2. H K, J, T, t. O 10, 0, 2. n a. &W, 10, , T. 4. The score Is love all; the dealer passes the make to dummy, who declares "no trump" on this hand; spades, ace. queen, 6: Hearts, ace. 8. 4; Clubs, king, queen. Jack, 8; Diamonds, king, 9, 7. Dummy's make Is perfectly sound, wun two aces, three honors in sequence and a twice guarded king he can count five or pos sibly six trlckB in his own hand and is warranted in hoping that his partner can take one or two. Unfortunately, the dealer is weak In the same suit that the dummy Is and the necessity of play ing a careful game Is shown Dy tne leader's opening that suit by leading the 8 of diamonds. When the dummy hand goes down the dealer sees that the 8 was the leader's fourth best and that Dummy's king will probably win the first trick, as there can be but one other diamond higher than the 8 out side of those held by dummy and him self, according to the rule of eleven. The dealer hopes by letting the first trick go by that the leader's partner will be out of diamonds before the lead er gets his suit established, and also the dealer and dummy are sufficiently pro tected In the other suits to have a rea sonable hope that the dealer will have no other cards of reentry outside or his diamonds. As it happens, the leader did hold these cards: Spadej, 6, 3; Hearts, 9, 5, 3; Clubs, , 3; Diamonds, ace. Jack. 10, 8, 4, 2. Ho has In fact no reentry cards, but his partner un fortunately has three diamonds, not two, which would have made It Impossible for the long diamonds to make. Pone has: Spades, king, 8, i; Hearts, queen. 10, 6; Clubs, ace, 7, 5, 4; Diamonds, aueen. 6. 3. The dealer's cards are Spades, Jack, 10. 9, 7, 4; Hearts, king. Jack, 7. 2; Clubs, 10, 9. 2; Diamonds, 6. This is the way the game went. Trick 1 Leader 8, D., Dummy 9, D., Pone. Queen, D., Dealer 5, D. At Dum my trick 1 the Dealer refuses to take the first diamond trick with his king. He simply covers the 8 to prevent that card from winning. Trick 2 Pone 6, D., Dealer I, C, Leader 2 D., Dummy 7 D. At the second trick, when the deal er permits Dummy to win the trick with the 7 of diamonds, a pretty bit of strategy is employed. As soon as the dealer refuses diamonds the leader can count another diamond with his part ner and without a card of re-entry in his own hand he knows that he must refrain from making his, ace. Jack of diamonds until after tho adverse king of diamonds has been rendered power less. If the leader at trick 2 takes with the ace of diamonds, leaving the king with the dummy, he will not take an other trick while the adversary will go game. This holdup is remarkably clever. At trick 2, Dummy havlne taken with the 7 of diamonds is obliged to go to the hearts. The clubs are out of the question, because Pone holds the ace and another diamond to lead to his partner. The spades are Just as bad with the doubly guarded king In Pone; In fact. If he tries to establish the spades he will not take even the odd trick, which Is the most he can hope for by the most careful play. So at trick 3 Dummy leads the 4 of hearts.

IN a large store In Chicago recently, a young man employe raised a col lection to buy flowers to be sent to the home of a young girl employe whose brother had Just died. The flowers were delivered. The mother re ceived them. "How nice they look," she exclaimed. "Wouldn't Johnny be pleased with these flowers If he was only alive to enjoy them? The poor boy, he never had a flower when he was living. Wasn't It nice of the company to send us so many flowers?" A week after the funeral the mother and sister were sitting by the, kitchen fire. The mother was deeply engrosetl In her own thoughts. Suddenly she straightened up, and there was a clear light in the faded eyes. "Lillian." she faltered, "I was Just thinking poor Johnny did not know any thing about the flowers that were sent us. Now, If they had bought flour In stead of flowers, that would mean at least two or three barrels. Or, If that money could have been raised for Johnny when he was sick, perhaps he could have gone to Denver and recov ered." Of course, we don't send flowers to dead people on Christmas, but we do send a lot of dead stuff to live people. Things that are "dead" to them because they have no use for them. Wo do send a lot of flowers and candles and tinfoil and Christmas trees and red, white and blue candles to people who haven't any flour or any bacon or any shqes or any wood. To be sure, they "look nice" Christmas day and they bring gladness to many a tried heart, but, the week after Christmas, they don't keep the fire going in the kitchen stove, nor the body fed. When-wa go about our Christmas mln. Istertng, It seems to me that it Is the essentials that we ought to keep In mind.. What the poor families NEED? Have they the bare necessities of life? Has your washlady's Susie a neat dress to -wear to school to protect her from the winter weather and the Jibes and thorUunts of her so-called "betters?" Has your gardener's Robert a pair of heavy shoes to keep the little feet safe from the corroding edges of the side walks? Has Mrs. Patrasky, the lady who does your scrubbing, rice and flour and hominy and prunes to feed her Now the dealer has taken five tricks. He must still take two to make the odd and ho sees that -at this point he must put Pone In, either with the ace of clubs or with the king of spades. As Dummy has three honor In sequence in cluba and a good supporting card to I lead by the dealer himself, the club suit Is chosen. Trick 7, Dealer 10 C, Leader 6 C, Dummy 8 C, Pone ace C. Noy Pone leads his' last diamond, the tray, which the leader takes with the 4 and then runs off hjs remaining dia monds, the ace, Jack and 10. Dummy keeps the king of clubs ancfthe ace of spades, which finally make whan the leader, having exhausted all of his diamonds. Is obliged to lead a spade. The dealer scored the odd trick only. Every No-Trumper Vulnerable. A great many players feel discour aged when there Is a no-trump declared against them, when they ought to re alize that there is generally a wenk spot In every no-trumper and should turn to their own advantage as quickly as possible. Another point to consider by the dealer is that, while we all know that the longest suit in the combined hands should be played for at a no trumper, there are times when such a suit becomes unmanageable on account of Insufficient re-entries with which to bring It In. Here Is a hand which will demon strate this point. The score is 8-14 In favor of the non-dealers. The dealer Bays "no trumps." Now the leader finds himself In a peculiar position. He has the ace, , 2 of spades; of hearts, jack, 10, 9, 7, S; clubs, jack, 8, 6, and diamonds ace queen. Every other suit being impossible and having a sequence in hearts he leads cprrectly the Jack of that suit. Trick 1: Leader juck H., dummy 6 H., pone 4 H., dealer king II. At trick 2 the dealer begins the hope less game of trying to establish the diamonds. Trick 2: Dealer king D., leader ace D., dummy 2 D., pone 10 D. Now the leader Is In and sees and If he persists in establishing his hearts he may aid the dealer in his evident object In leading the diamonds so at trick 3 the leader changes his tactics by leading the 2 of spades, dummy 6 S., pone 10 S., dealer queen S. At trick 3 the dealer made a fatal error. With the queen of spades twice guarded in his own hand and the king once guard ed with dummy he should have, put up the king second hand and would thus have made two tricks In spades. If the dealer has taken this trick with the king of spades and then have taken the 9 of clubs up to this ace. king, ten and have passed It he would have se cured four odd tricks and the game. In stead of doing this he keeps right on with the hopeless diamonds. Trick 4: Dealer 6 D., leader queen D., dummy 3 D., pone 6 H. Now the leader who is In, sees a chance of picking up the lone king of spades from dummy and then he puts his pawner in with the nine of spades and pone makes three spades down the line the Jack, the 7 and the 3, Tho leader and pone have now made 6 tricks and are obliged to put the dealer back Into the game too late to be of any advantage to him. The dealer takes trick 9 with the queen of hearts, trick 10 with the ace of hearts; trick 11 with the ace of clubs; trick 12 with the king of clubs and trick 13 goes to pone who has the queen of clubs. This Is the way all of the cards were placed: DUMMY. n-o. C 8. . r J, 9. 8, T, 6, 4. 8, 1 3 K, e. LEADER. PONB. H J, 10, 0. 7, 8. n 8, 6. 4, 2. Cl. 8. 6. C Q, 4, 8. D A, Q. D 10. 8 A, a, 2. H J, 10. 7. . 8. PEAT. EH. H A, K, Q. C A, K. JO, T, 2. D K, 0. 8 Q. 8, 4. A little calculation should have con vinced the dealer of the hopelessness of playing for the diamonds without any cards fo reentry in the dummy hand. As the game was played the non-dealers took the odd making the score 26 in their favor against 8. If the dealer had only put in his king of spades second hand he would have won the odd trick advancing his score to 20 while the op ponents would have remained at 14. If he had led the 9 of clubs from dummy to his own hand and passed it that play would have Insured the dealer cer tainly two odd tricks and perhaps three. If the leader had not changed to the spade suit at trick three the dealer might have secured four odd tricks on the deal. SIGNALS hard-working Krlf and her little brood of hungry children? Has the girl In your office enough money to pay for a little breath of country air for hprself and her mother during the holidays? Is there good milk for your husband's poor relative's last baby? These are Just a few of the questions to ask ourselves when we start out to do our Christmas "angel" work. Little children ought to have toys and they ought to have, Christmas trees and they ought to have beautifur stockings full of lovely Christmas candles, but those are all non-essentials, all "trimmings." Lot's think of those things afte we have provided the staples of life and health. And. remember, there nre times at Christmas, even, when little, sick bodies can't wait to "know about the flowers that were sent thorn." Sometimes, the light goes out before Santa C'laus gets there. Sometimes, the barrels of flour or the few dollars that the flour cost come too late for little sufferers, "who might have gone to Denver and recov ered." Let us do our Christmas "angel" work early.

Bart lette used to say when she was a tiny little girl. Of course she couldn't real ise the first part of her ambition, but she didn't let the fact that she was a woman discourage her, so now she Is a woman miner, which Is most unique. It was an Interesting life story -that she told when I called upon her in her cozy apartments at the Selllng-Hlrsch build ing. "Yes, I always had my heart set on mining ever since I could toddle around," she continued. "You see, my people, who were southerners, came out here In 1853, when I was Just a babe in arms. I had the pleasure of making a trip across the country In one of those 'automobiles' drawn by oxen. We came to Washington when it was all Oregon, so you see I'm a pioneer!" and there was, a true ring of pride In her voice. "Well, I couldn't help taking up min ing, because I Just grew up In that environment. I used to always hear my father and my broCiers talking about minerals, quarts and placer gold, so what was more natural than that I should absorb the Interest for such things. The first book I read was about the earth's geological formation, and I Just pored over it, and then others like It," and here she excused herself to see If her parsnips -vcre burning. That is one of the delightful things about Mrs. Bartlette. though she Is do ing a man's work, she Is so womanly in every respect. She is remarkably young looking for her years. Her face is that of a mighty Bhrewd business woman.
