The John Day Sentinel, having pro

offers to answer any question that may
be sent to it. Among the first already
sent in s .the following : "What is
the origin of the expression 'Down went

relating an incident that occurred dur
ing the wet season after Noah's ark was
built. Ah Irishman named McGinty
having lost his rubber boots, it is pre
sumed, climbed up a tree to keep his

Joles Brothers.
No business house in this city affords
a better example of the success that al
most invariably attends upon ploding
industry and honest methods, than the
ne whose name heads this article.
Only a little over four years ago the
three brothers, Isaac, George and
Thomas Joles opened a little, two by
four grocery store back of the Gates'
building1 on Union street. J It was .an
out of the way place for a store and
scarcely afforded space in which to per
form the proverbial service of whipping
a cat, but it was perhaps equal to the
capital invested and as the business
. grew, which it steadily did from the be
ginning, it was soon filled from floor to
ceiling. In point of fact what with the
increase of stock and a corresponding
increase in the lateral growth of Baby
Joles himself, who weighs over 300
pounds, avoirdupois, it became a ques
tion of necessity to move into larger
quarters. -These were found in the new
Opera building, corner of Washington
and Third, which they took possession
of in July, 1890,
Here they .remained, doing a -constantly
increasing and prosperous busi-
..'iuss till the great fire of September 3,
1891 left the store and its contents in
ashes. But the ashes were scarcely cold
till they had bargained for the stock in
trade of Roscoe & Gibons and were com
fortably located in the fine brick block
of the Masonic society on the corner of
Court and Third where the main store
.room measures ' 24x70 feet, besides a
large-room used1 for storing grain and
potatoes and "a ' capacious shed' for the
toragd of coal oil.1 In addition, to this
space, as the firm deals largely in hay as
well as gram and mill feed, a barn
building back of their-residence on Ful
ton street is used for the storage, of the
former commodity. The main thing
that impressed itself on the mind of the
writer as he walked through the various
departments oi the store was the amount
of business that must be done to justify
the amount of stock on hand's. "Instead
of a box f soap here and a con of some
thing else yonder so placed as to fill up
the space; stacks of boxfes and cases and
immense heaps of sacks and bags are
piled up so aa to make space, instead
of fill it up, Beside a large variety of
green apples in fine condition and of
strikingly fine quality th Writer was
pleased to note an unusually large and
excellent variety of dried fruits which,
we learned, were nearly all of home pro
duct. Here was a stack containing
thirty-five fifty-pound boxes of dried
Italian prunes, all' produced at home
aud better, as we were informed and be
lieve, than any that come from Califor
nia. As a proof of this they bring better
prices than do California prunes in the
Portland market. We were shown dried
prunes that Joles Brothers bought from
A. Y. Marsh, of Chenoweth Creek and
if there are any better on the American
continent we would like to. see them.
A lot of dried Tokay and Muscat grapes
produced by Frank Creighton of Three
Mile deserves more than mere mention.
They are in every respect equal to the
best California or White London raisins,
while they are sold at half the price
twelve pounds for a dollar. We be
lieve many a housewife will thank
us for calling attention to Frank
Creipton's dried grapes; They give such
good satisfaction that Tom Joles says he
would buy three or four tons of them if
he could get them. Up till the time of
the fire last year Joles Brothers bad
shipped upwards of 5000 boxes' of green
fruit, chiefly to Spokane, Helena, Cheney,
Ueppner and other towns east, while
they had made numerous' shipments of
cherries, in the season, to Tacoma and
Seattle. At present, they dispose of
about 150 boxes of apples a month in
the store. . The firm deals largely in farm
products buying everything they can
from our own farmers. Besides this they
ship'corn from Nebraska and at present
have a car load on the way. Year before
last when feed was scarce in this section
they shipped and disposed of fifteen car
loads. The firm reaps a big advantage
by buying such heavy articles as sugar,
salt, and coal oil in car load lots, and
they are both able and willing to give
the benefit to their customers. They
were the first to ship by the Regulator
and the first to reduce prices in confor
mity to reduced rates. They deal largely
in Japan sugar, which they eell about
of a cent a pound cheaper than a similar
grade Of American sugar and claim that
it is equal in every respect. Besides the
articles we have mentioned there is a
full li he of everything usually found in a
first class grocery store such as canned
goods of every description, teas, coffees,
spices, syrups, lard, bacon, garden seeds,
tobacco, cigars, candies, Quaker and
rolled oats and flour, besides the famous
Radham's Microbe Killer of which they
are the special agents and of which they
have sold since last October over 800
gallon jugs and concerning whose merits
they can boast that the patient who has
ever taBen a regular course of .tieatinent
of the Microbe Killer has never died on
their hands or ever had a relapse, unless
when he gave np taking the medicine or
changed doctors. When asked if the
sale of the Microbe Killer kept increas
ing the significant answer was returned.
-'It is not quite so large as it was because
all the many chronic cases Who1 used to
buy it are cured and" don't need it any
more." But we have reached the limit
of this article and we close it with the
remark made by Tom Joles when the
writer spoke of the heavy stock the firm
Carried. "It is all paid for and we don't
owe a dollar in the world."
A Very Honorable .Act. -
Eight years before the late Judge J.
H. Bird died he took out a life insurance
poilsy in the Northwestern Life Insur
ance 'company for the sum of $2000.
About two years before his death he al
lowed the policy , to .lapse by. non-payment
of premium. ; Notwithstanding
this fact, however, through the efforts of
the local-agent of the company, Mr. T.
A. Hudson, a check was received this
morning from the company's borne office
at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in-'favor of
Miss Lulu D. Bird, executrix of Judge
Bird's estate for the sum of (533, being
over $200 more then Judge Bird
had paid the company in premiums.
The payment of this sum is entirely vol
untary on the part of the company as
the estate bad no legal claim against it.
This act .. reflects great honor on ' the
company. - ' . " '

;Today I met Mr. Robert Bradley re
cently from Boyd, but how running a
farm which he says is two miles south
of Corvallis. Although it has rained a'
great deal this winter, it has not soaked
the enterprise out of Mr. "Bradley, who
thinks he likes rain better than : a- erop

ing his farm for the purpose of raising
wheat and making it pay. . ."
Roads are very muddy, the weather is

Coverings for Bed. Springs. ,
Many of the best spring beds now to
be had are covered over with stout can
vas, thus keeping the springs and the
under part of the bed free from dust,
and saving the labor that results from
its accumulation. ' Such springs cost ten
or twelve: dollars, but when they are
not to be had a good plan, if the ar
rangement of the springs permit, is to
make a strong covering for them your
self. The wide durable prints used by
furniture dealers for the first covering'
of upholstered furniture is a very good
material for . such coverings, though
cheaper calicoes will do. The covers
should be stitched up at both ends and
on one side; and after the springs are
slipped inside, the other side may be
sewn up.
Much expense is also saved, and bed
ding is kept in much daintier condition
if covers of unbleached muslin are kept
over the mattress and pillow ticks. The
covers may be washed two or three times
a year, and the undercases be kept clean
and fresh for years. New York Post.
Accidents on Road Anr Rail. -
M. Clerault, locomotive superintendent
of the management of the Western of
France railway, gives some interesting
statistics of the accidents which happen
with road vehicles, and which occur on
railways. According to his figures the
road, vehicle accidents can be summed
up as follows: One passenger killed out
of every 855,000; one passenger wounded
out of every 80,000. .. .
At the same time the statistics of the
French railways show that one passen
ger is killed out' of 26,720,000; and one
passenger wounded out of 1,060,000.
Thus in France at the present time the
traveler may make a journey of ordinary
length with only a twenty-seven-mil-lionth
chance of being killed and one
millionth chance of. being wounded.

Do Birds Draw Lstit
" Flocks of birds so enhance every land
scape that it is a source "of regret that
they are less and less a common feature
of our country rambles. They mark the
return of spring more emphatically than
the chance blooming of violets; and
would that we were so keen sighted as
to mark their breaking up and the scat
tering of mated pairs over the conn try.
This is doubtless a gradual process, for I
find the birds, as the nestling season
draws near, gathering about their favor
ite summer homes, often a dozen or
more, and in some way there is a draw
ing of lots, and the particular spots are
reoccupied. Dr. O. C.Abbott, in Mon
