"To this point the Dayton ap proached with barely headway enough to make steeraue way pos sible. The mate, perched on the capstain in the capacity of general lookout soon found, although neither bank could be seen, that the steamer was in very shallow water and the wash of the water denoted that she was out of the channel. "He voluntarily disclosed his view to the skipper who vocifer ously and profanely answered that he was in the channel and to dem onstrate his geographical aftilUy ia a fog called the mates atteiUion--to the crowing of a rooster off the starboard bow as a fowl be longingto a farm ou the south of the river. "He followed this statement up by a vitrolic disclosure not only on the oualif icitions and morals of the mate's antecedents but a thesis on the duties of a mate that had not yet been duly licensed by his superiors to guide the destiny of a river steamer. "The boat's mate was aHo an artist in word painting by means of the mar'no vocabulary and in un accomplished dissertation in formed the skipper that the crow ing rooster was neither his nor the one thaf foretoM the infidelity of Peter, but a bantam in one of the coops of chickens on thu star board of the steamer.

UH 1 ILL BUS Finishing Cement Applied to Front Wall, Plastering to Start Soon The peculiar shuffle of the Char leston dance causes affliction af fecting the bottoms of the feet. This affliction is called papilloma, but. in reality it is nothing more than a corn or a wart that forms on the bottom of the foot. It is caused by the continual Finark ing of bin ?oled shoes on a dance floor. And the peculiar shuffle of the Charleston is its greatest" aggravator. According to Dr. Edwin Craw, of the California col lege of chiropody, papilloma con sists of "epithelial tumors, formed by the hypertrophy of the papil lace." He says they have treated more than a hundred cases at the college clinic in the last few weeks and that most of them were the result of the Charleston. As a warning he adds that panilloma is a "painful affliction and difficult to cure." ALL OREGON PARENTS ; Should ! Link tho Future of Their Children ' . : . : with a ' I-.
