Nothing like this bad ever happened in the Old orchard before, and it was hard to be lleve. Of course there had been quar re Is. and sometimes worse things had happened, as when, Sammy Jay or Chatterer the Red Squirrel had stolen some one's eggs. But never had any body deliberately taken the house of some one else while they were living in It. Of course, it was wholly an af fair between Bully and Skimmer, and business of anyone else.

Fourteenth and Burnsida.' diplomacy" By Edna K. Wooley. When a city's census shows that two-thirds of its population consists of foreign born residents it must needs be a diplomatic landlady wbo can keep the peace and incidentally her board ers, in these parlous days. In a certain large boasding bouse. "within walking distance" which means that you must get up an hour earlier in the morning to get to work on time if you walk the distance) the landlady proved herself a diplomatic genius. It's a poor evening indeed when members of at least half a dozen different nationalities are not at her table. "Mrs. Wood sits at the head of the long table during the principal meal of the day and carefully guides the conversation. She is little, while haired. pleasant always, but with a dignity that commands respect, and not once has one of ber "guests' as she calls them, failed to control himself, team hot-headed Pole to cahMitorfUig lishtnan, wben Mrs. Wood looked) at him. Since the beginning of the European war Mrs. Wood has gently but effec tively censored war converse around ber table. The first evening that dis cord arose among the boarders sh displayed ber wonderful diplomacy, An argument began between German, llshman. up and Bhein." a Frenchman and an Eng Suddenly the German stood began to sing "Wacht Am Immediately the Frenchman jumped up and, excitedly waving his arms, started to shout the "Marseillaise." More slowly, but with grim deter mination, the Englishman arose and sang "God Save the King, . The other boarders held their ears, except a few excitable aliens who gave evidence of wanting to join in the mdley. Mrs. Wood calmly .rapped on the ta ble with a spoon. "Friends," she said, smilingly, in the pause that ens tied, "friends don't you think it would be more harmon ious if we all joined in singing 'My Country, 'Tls f Thee'?" A little laugh rippled around the table. Then a stalwart young man whose hands showed traces of the maebine shop in spite of a conscien tious scrubbing, arose, and, with a military salute to bis landlady, began the song of the "sweet land of liberty. And though many a foreign accent was beard and some did not know the words at all, every veioe joined in the tone with a fervor that was al most a prayer. Just a smile, a hint, a little push in the right direction that's all that the most fiery tempered of us need to make us see . the better side, to help us into a kindlier spirit. Every one of those men was glad to join in a common harmony, glad that he lived in a "country which takes no sides and practices as well as preaches peace on earth, good will to all peoples. One of the most illuminating things I ever beard about oar land, was something that an Austrian ex-soldier said after be had announced that he had applied for citizenship papers. "I had heard much about the United States,' he said, "about the advantages it offers to all, and its ideals of free dom. ' But what persuaded me to cast my fortune here was Uncle Sam's smile.

One sees and hears of many exag gerations this fall, but it is not the well-dressed women who are adopt ing them. There never was a time when fashion permitted women to suit their own individualities in matters of dress as now. when so much variety is offered. It is only a question of 1 knowing what ones requirements real ly are, and then observing proper dis cretian in making one's selections. True, it is confusing to be confronted by the myriads of materials, colors and designs, each more alluring than the last, but suitability is the only guide to successful growing, however hard It is to resist what looks most tempting in the shops. The model sketched is very illustrat ive of the best of the fashion trend in dressy frocks this fall. It is smart without being striking, youthful but dignified. For it were used biscuit colored duvetyn and olive-green satin, so you see it is a cold-weather dress. The duvetyn makes the plain, long sleeved blouse and the long, full tunic while the basque bodice and underskirt are of green satin.

Early Day Relics In Old Saloon Helms Place at Jacksonville, Southern Oregon, Was Club Sous for JCsa Who Were Prominent Pioneers. Medford. Or., Sept. 23. With the an nouncement that the Helms saloon in Jacksonville is to be closed, attention has been called to one of the most interesting historical landmarks in southern Oregon. The Helms saloou, established in 1852, when the first gold rush started, has been the gather ing place for prospectors, politicians, traders and town characters for half a century. Although the usual liquor business was carried on, hundreds of men who never took & drink were dally callers, and after the gold rush it was a rt of social club for the entire Rogue River valley. The firm name at first was Helms & Winchon and Ed Helms received the establishment as a legacy irom ms rather. Curios and relics said to be. worth $25,000 are gathered there, including the first gold nugget found on Jackson's creek, a photo graph of the hanging of three murder ers at Yreka, Cal., by the vigilantes In the early seventies, the first pool tables brought to the Pacific coast arotmd the Horn to tk,.
