The solution of the Cascades railway
problem seems at hand. The portage
commission has determined on prompt
and vigorous action and evince a deter
mination to push the enterprise to com
pletion in season for the removal of the
approaching wheat crop. The history of
the long struggle for an "open river" has
been prolific of schemes, promises and
swearing, and characterized by disap
pointment and disgust. If now success
crowns the effort it will be because the
people of the state wisely resolved to
help themselves. When the people
move in earnest there is small chance of
corporate interests blocking their way.

THE LAST ROSE.
Hushed la the voice that held
'thralled-
Bushed ere life's wine on those glad lips had
palled;
Hushed in its Joyous prime, white trophies
sweet
Btill breathed their fragrance at the singer's
feet
And she who sang- "The Last Rose" o'er and o'er
Since first her girlish hands song's scepter
grasped,
1 jinking it with her name from shore to shore.
Lies with the last rose In her fingers clasped
As seal of science.
Dear the singer's fame.
But dearer still each tender household
We knew her by wife, daughter, sister, friend:
And while the passing years her praise pro
long. With her "Last Rose" in loving thought shall
' blend
The roselike life she wedded to her song. -Mary
B. Sleight in Harper's Bazar.

Baby is sick. The woeful expression
of a Des Moines teamster's countenance
showed his deep anxiety was not entire
ly without cause, when he inquired of a
druggist of the same city what was best
to give a baby for a cold? . It was not ne
cessary for him to say more, his counte
nance showed that the pet of the family,
if not the idol of his life was in distress.
"We give our baby Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy," was the druggist's answer.
"I don't like to give the baby such strong
medicine," said the teamster. You know
John Oleson, of the Watters-Talbot Print
ing Co., don't you? inquired the drug
gist. "His baby, when eighteen months
old, got hold of a bottle of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy .and drank the whole of
it. Of course it made the baby vomit
very freely but did not injure it in .the
least, and what is more, it cured the ba
by's cold. The teamster already knew
the value of the Remedy, having used it
himselt, and was now satisfied that there
was no danger in giving it even to a
baby. For sale by Snipes & Kinersly.

b-e-a-u-tiful duck, the one old quacker
that traveled with the bens because he had
no better company. The robin that had
been watching her out of the corners of his

listened to her prattle, was asleep already
with his head under his winsr. and Katie's
j hung heavily on mother's shoulder as she
was undressing her. "Now 1 lay me" bad

closing she sat suddenly bolt upright.

"Hush, Katie!" said her mother, the
least bit wearily, for the little feet and the
little tongue had never ceased going one
moment all day. "Mow we will go to
sleep."
"But, mamma," and the big eyes pleaded
earnestly, "can't I have Johnnie's picture
book this oust?"
"Not tonight, dearie; it is too late."
"Mamma," said Katie, sitting upvery
straight and looking very solemn indeed,

told her she couldn't have it, and and"

Wanted to Know.
Few men were ever fonder of news and
gossip than was old Jerry TJlishen. Despite
this fondness, however, Jerry was not a
talker, and rarely took part in conversa
tion other than to ask an occasional ques
tion about some point of special interest.
One day J try's brother William, who
lived some miles away, came to visit him.
William had his right hand heavily band
aged, and this fact, of course, required an
early explanation.
"Burnt it 'most off 't the tire t' othei
night," said William. "Ye see, old 'Square
Dean's barn got afire, 'n' I went with the
rest; but 'twan't any use, 'bout everything
waa burnt. If I wuz the 'square I'd give
chat boy seen a. lickin' 't be couldn't
Stan'."
"What for?" asked the interested Jerry.
"Why, fur settin' the barn afire," was
the reply; "but there! I furgot ter tell ye
'bout that part of it. Ye see the square's
boy great dough head he found an owl
settin' ou the ridge pole, and so, of course,
he had ter shoot at it.
"Wal, the barn winder was open, 'n' the
gnnwad went right inter the haymow, 'n'
'twan't five minutes afore 'twas all a-blaz-in'.
Everybody turned out, and we got out
the old boss, 'n' then Bill Treat said"
and so the old man went on with a long
story, giving every detail of what was
done, said and thought by each one who
was present at the fire.
When at last the story was ended old
Jerry remained for several minutes si
lently meditating on what he had heard;
then he suddenly looked up and gravely
asked, "Did ye say whether the boy killed
the owl?" Youth's Companion.
. ' Girls Like to Be Kissed.
, A young society man who moves in the
younger circles told something oat of the
usual run the other day. He is a hand
some fellow, tall and erect, and a prime
favorite among the girls. -
He said that he attempted to kiss a pretty
girl, and just as he got his uuu around
her slender waist and waa about to kiss
her she said if he dared she would scream.
Not wishing to have a scene, which such
an action would cause, he withdrew his
arm and resumed his seat at the other end
of the sofa. In an instant the pretty girl
said, "Oh, I thought you were braver than
that."
She, however, obstinately refused to let
him kiss ber -
In a couple of days he called on another
girl. He wanted to kiss, her, but she like
wise threatened to scream if he should at
tempt it. He thought he would profit by
his former experience and paid no atten
tion to the warning.
He kissed her she screamed; her mother
came -in and demanded an explanation.
The girl came to his rescue, however, and
said a mouse was in the room, and she
screamed as it ran across the floor. Fur
thermore, by saying the young man had
gallantly tried to catch the mouse, she ex
plained his blushes to the mother's satis
faction. Louisville Commercial.
