Th e main en- f i i j t r a h c e will b e ' used "by both t firms after April , j 1 , and we will use 1 the three show f windows on State street for display purposes.

ELLA McMl'NN ' Vii fee by the paper that -Doctor iad Mrs. L C. Clement are plan ning a trip abroad. I like, the idea, except about stopping off art Vienna to attend a clinic. I don't know miHih about the place, yhictt ia my. own fault of course, aa for Bereral years we bad a picture card concerning it. which came out of the Arbuckle coffee. (But 1 never pester my head about learn ing anything not. needed at the moment, j My private opinion is that the doctor will find ; those cannibals over there removing a goitre by tightening a hemp rope around it, and going after your appendix with a couple of sharp e tones. Now my recollection of Vienna , bread is that it h a long loaf, baked until you could fell a robust cow with it and covered with sand and gravel, and when, during the war, t heard a man in the bank tell another man that his student eon .at .Vienna could scarcely make , his way through the streets without bis progress being impeded by children crying for BREAD, I, knowing all about Vienna bread, was moved to tears, feeling that starvation was indeed upon them when they conld cry for THAT bread. ? '-, - j " f r ; I wish they would keep a journ- Ial, day by day, and have it pub lished when they return. I should -iiui wuuc ,uiu : iu . .tit quvu stuff as "political . unrest,; and "development,', "and "economic cond?tlons. I don't-care two cents for such things. JL What I .want to know is just exactly , what they had for breakfast and how Jt svaa cooked and What it cost; and was there enough cover on , the bed, and similar important things. .But I should . prefer that, they went immediately to England, Holland and the other places men tioned, eo as to e there at the time of the blooming of flowers, and to just soak up impressions. For one thing I want to bear all About "quaint English gardens and -what makes .them "quaint, and what the varieties of flowers are. You know they rare strong for calling things raosegays," and f'poseys, and many names are pot those we are familiar with, although the flowers may be the same. I should like also to hear if they are pestered with; moles, gophers, slugs, aphis, worms above below and on the surface of the ground, and what the varieties of wild flowers are. s Indeed, when I think of all I want them to see for ME, I think that they had better,' "cut out" Vienna- entirely. .

CHAPTER 419 j - t . - - . ......... - i WHAT CLAIRE DISCLOSED IN THE BLISS'S APARTMENT Claire rose with alacrity , at my suggestion that we look over the Diiss apartment to wnich Dicky had just brought us.' j V ' .V "I'll he glad to4give it the once over. . It's a nifty little dump, I think," she said, and I noted, that sho had returned to the slangy diction of my first acquaintance with her. v !; The hours of our association at the Barker house, had given xne a new and more pleasant impression of her, language, which had been eminently correct. Buti she 'was patently off-guard now, k to t give her performance of the: previous half hour its most plausible ex cuse. ' :". J - i ' V . Our Inspection did not take very long as the apartment consisted of but three rooms and an alcove off the living-room. , The single bedroom, was roomy for an apart ment, and t contained i the ubiqui tous twin beda and two dressing cases. ' I The living-room alcove at first sight seemed a part of the larger room, with, a comfortable couch. and a roomy chest of , drawers, which , would have delighted - the heart of , a collector. ? But Claire's sharp eyes soon : discovered the real use of the alcove. I : . "Behold the guest room," she said running an Inquisitive finger along the framework of the couch. "This turns into a bed at night, and when the candlea and that ;wonderfal piece of old pottery are off that chest it makes a epif- f y bureau, i But here's one guest .who declines to use it.-. It'll make a fine placo for the Dick-bird to roost isn't! that what Mrs. Un derwood calls him? And I know you'll let me share the bedroom wun you, won i you: uere is even a door for his room."-,' .-.

''' 4 she pulled out an f immense scseen from '.where it - had been folded against the wall, and begn to open it with the eagerness of a curious, spoiled child who must meddle with every new thing. I told myself that was exactly what phe wag; and I suspected that she had looked upon Dicky as a novel and fascinating toy, .whose mental wheels she liked to see revolve, t ."Never mind that now," I said. "We haven't time. Just look at this table, will- you? Isn't it a dear?" V; -:; I had hard work to keep a cer tain tart crispness put of my voice. The nonchalant manner, in which she had decided that Dicky should occupy the alcove while she shared the other room with me irritated ime. It was exactly the arrange ment 1 myself had planned, but I had the feeling that purposely or through carelessness, she was ar ranging things according to . her own fancy without troubling her self y to" ascertain my . possible wishes " -; : - . ' jr - . She opened the screen a little farther, pushed it hack untidily without closing it .again, thea crossed to where X was standing over a : wonderful old mahogany drop-leaf table. The cozy living- room Jield nothing which was not pure colonial .either antique or reproduction, except those ; two essentially modern articles, a tea wagon, and a phonograph, but the table was easily the gem of the collection. "I suppose It's,' the canary's chirp, she said, with a disparag ing look at the piece o furniture over which I was breaking the tenth commandment, "but I can't cheep a single cheep over an tiques To my mind this room looks like a morgue." ; Madge Is Dismayed. Her glance roved over the rush bottomed, straight chairs -and rockers which appealed so strong ly to me ,and which I knew must have been the result of long, 'pa tient and - discriminating search upon ..the part of the fortunate owners, of them. Then she said amusedly: ' 1: " "But you're daffy about them, aren't you?" . : i- "I fancy that describes my feel ing," I returned, trying hard to make my voice good-huraoredly In different. To express my enthus iasm, 'almost my 1 veneration, for the lovely old things in the Bliss living room, to this girl with her crude viewpoint was a waste of time and effort. ; f ' "Well, I'll take a comfortable rocker that I won't; be afraid of breaking" she said laughingly, and followed me to the kitchen, which after a swift, comprehen sive survey of its contents filled me with admiration and dismay. It was in that condition of im maculate order only to be descib ed as spick and span, and its every appointment spoke of an exquisite ly dainty and fastidious mistress. I found , myself . visualizing her dismay at the thin veil of dust which daring her two weeks' ab- sense had covered the porcelan top or her work table. : .' f j. But it was -not the exquisite cleanliness and order of the kitch en which dismayed me. I flattered myself that I could return it to its niistreiss in eauallv eood con dition..

THE CAVERN OF FIRE IIII : (THIEF Cr BAGDAD) i DfK'W.U'-Bfownlls Wliy Marion County Selected for Demonstration Speaking before members of the Marios County Health association, in session yesterday. Dr. Walter H. Brown ; director of the Marion County Child Health demonstra tion, said, in part:- . "I have often asked why the directors of the Commonwealth Fund of New York City, selected Marion county and Salem for its fourth great five-year program of child health, in competition with 28 cities of the west. 1 . . "I might say that the deciding factor in selecting Marion county was the spirit of the people. After ivlstting the 28 cities In 10 west ern states, I found I liked the peo ple ot Marjon. county, because you folks have wonderful spirit that I did not find elsewhere. V "I saw; from your schools and from attending a meeting in Sa lem, that you had a most wonder ful spirit of cooperation, a spirit much finer than I found in many communities. . , ; "Your school officials stand but as deeply interested-in the health of children. This refers especial ly to Mary L. Fulkerson, superin tendent of county schools and George W. Hug, superintendent of the Salem schools, . ; j "Another thing I found in Mar lon county that impressed me was that your health Z associations. county and state, were all work ing In harmony,-something that I did not always find in the 10 Btates I visited." ; i Referring to the work of the Marion County Child Health dem onstration, Dr. Brown said : . ; "We do not replace any. health agency now in the field. . We work with and through the constituted health .authorities of the county. We assist Dr. C. E. Cashatt. county health officer, Dr. William B. iMott, city, health officer. Dr. D. iR. Ross, school physician and Dr. W. H. Byrd city physician, In pro tecting the health of the people of the county. "From, my past experience I can assure you that they . will be come just as Interested in health as they are interested in other matters." Iffi'S WILL GIVE .

Picture A plan to keep in the state Theodore Gegoux's painting of the historic day at Champoeg when Oregon was saved for the Union has been suggested by George H. Himes, curator of the Oregon His torical society, who wishes to" see the . painting purchased and . pre sented to. the state by popular sub scription.
