is fair to include in operating expenses because some of the
foolish legislation the companies fight might make ior hign

The testimony was that the Oregon utilities expended
some $30,000 a year for such political purposes. The amount
would not seem to be large considering the property invest

easy spending is gone too.
It doesn't matter greatly how the commissioner decides
this point, although the state's contention would seem sound,
to keep the expenses out of the rate structure unless the spe
cific items are justifiable. Publicity as to the sums may be

The socialist convention at Milwaukee must have been
a great success. It has a big split over prohibition and one
delegate went off saying: "We're going home to tell every
member of the party what a dirty political machine is run
ning this convention. Every sort of political trickery has been
tried, it s worse than Tammany." Must have Deen run 3 us

That might be better than indiscriminate license of liquor
stores, but how would graft be kept out of government oper-

profits would not still tempt bootleggers and rum-runners
to operate?
; The gas price fluctuates so much it makes one dizzy.
Overproduction and price-cutting have caused disastrous gas
'.; wars. If the present mark-up is due to getting better control

which will make the oil industry profitable again, it will be
healthy. That is what is needed for all commodities: prices
on a basis not of 1929 but on present day ccts of operating,
which will still leave a margin of profit.

But he did not dwell on' these
seemingly Impossible- things. Hs
had the place for his mill, after
many years of waiting. The de
mand tor Its product was fast in-
cruMltLg. No modern advertising
would be needed to sell It, as the
settlers In the adjacent locality
were in need of a place to get
their ever increasing grain crops
turned into flour.

"This brings us to the year
1848. Previous to this year no
larger companies had come to
Oregon, those who were here be
fore 1847 being usually small
groups of men without families,
so. there were only very sparse
settlements; no roads, towns,
schools or other 'organized civil
ization, the settlers usually hav
ing brought with them some nec
633 ary farming implements, seed
and a few horses, cattle and oth
er farm animals, and things were
very primitive Indeed.
So after locating a place to
build his grist-mill It was not an
easy thing to think out a plan to
put . in ' operation that would In
any reasonable-time bring in
$2,000 In real money, the amount
necessary to get the machinery,

"But Important happenings
were near, though hs had no way
of knowing of them, or guessing
than anything out of the ordin
ary was going to happen. In 1848
something happened in Califor
nia besides earthquakes and oth
er disturbances that come along
on regular schedule. Gold was
discovered, and most of the new
settlers In Oregon went there to
make their fortune. Many did
make a good start in financing
themselves, so they were helped

homesteads improved, and in a
way to produce crops, which

'Breaking out of the gold mines
in California.' This dreamer of
dreams, and would be builder of
a gristmill, went with the others
to the golden gate state In Sep
tember, 1849, and returned to
his family and claim the following
May, having with him when he
arrived home a little over $2000
in gold dust. This was the amount
he had .estimated to be necessary
to start his gristmill enterprise,
though it would take a consider
able larger sum to complete It
ancrmake it a productive, money
making business.
"Here the reader may wonder.
if In so short a period of time he
could and did make $2000 in the
gold mines of California, why did
he quit and go back to his f am-
llly and claim Just then? His fam
ily could take cars of themselves.
Why did hs not stay a while long
er and go home with a much lar
ger sum, which it would seem
just then was quite possible?
S
"We do not know why hs
chose to go horns Just at that
time. Possibly because his mind
had concentrated along one 11ns
of thought and towards certain
achievements hs had dreamed of
for so long, that maybe his fate
and destiny were fixed by an
overruling power under whose
way he was to go on. Ws leave
this with our friends, ths 'psy
chologists. They know.
"After all thess years of work
ing at various things, which in
themselves did not seem to be
anything connected with ths plan
ning or building of a gristmill, hs
now had the place to build his

Lily Lou shut her eyes. She was
as tired.
When she opened them again
Madams Nahlman was gone. The
sweet faced night sister sat dosing
by the window, her head sunk on
her breast, r
LUy Lsa looked furtively for the
baby. Shs hoped it wasn't in the
room. When shs saw it shs wanted
ts cry, shs couldn't remember why.
So she closed her eyes again. It
was better ts aleep. Sleep, and f or-
tet. .
They were always waking her.
Always wanting to move her and
straighten the sheets and plump

There were two day sisters who
came in and out, white-eoiffed and

let it lie there in ths crook of her

it seemed, was not pleasing to the
rosy sister. Shs mads clucking
noises with' her tongue, snd talked
at rreat length in German. Evi
dently all about ths baby's charm.
Ths pale sister brought trays of
food, and made ducking noises with
her tongue also. Sometimes sue
became quite cross because Lily
Lou wouldn't eat, and the word
"Professor" was used to the ac
companiment of a wagging fore
finger. Professor seemed to be an
other name for Herr Doctor.
Rather than risk ths Professor's
displeasure and further argument
she always opened her month and
swallowed what was offered. Then
the sister would smile and nobody
would bother her for a little while.
It was so good to be let alone.
They let her alone so seldom. Al

Then sleep. Sleep that never lasted
long enough. Sleep that began to

to wake. Sleep that cast out pain.
Sleep that was forgetfulness.

forced himself, at intervals that

"Donl yon know met Dont yon

Ths- doctor spoke English. Lily
Lou wished that hs did not. She
always answered his questions as
quickly a shs could, so that hs
would go away, again, and aha
could slip back to forgetfulness.
"Donl yon know that yon have
a fins baby boy?"
Didnt shs know? How could ahe

saw her, beaming from the foot of

Sometimes she picked up the let

Ths sister bustled forward, and
right at her heels came Susanna
Coin who had probably been in the
room ngnt along. Nobody ever
asked if they might come in, no
body cared whether she wanted to
see them or not, they just came.
"Hello," she said, making the ef-
ajfort because it waa Susanne's first
visit, trying not to mind when Su
sanna kissed bar oh' both cheeks. ' :

"Think of t, a son! I myself bars

Lily Lou shut her eyes. Ths old

"I havent named It yet."

"Robin, I think. Yes, IH call it

"Well! That's better! After

"After no one. I always Kked ths
name, that's au. , Sobin Bobia

That settled she dropped her eyes
again. Lay there motionless, her
black hair a somber frame for her
pallid face, dark lashes mercifully
veiling; tell-tale eyes.
Susanna Coin stood with the in
fant in her arms, rocking htm
gently.
"Would yon like to have him
adopted? By a good rich Swiss
family? They could give him t
good home. Perhaps better .than
you, who wiQ soon bo singing

Shs broke off, as the sister, with
a little cry, elbowed past her to the
bed.
Lily Lou was not faking oblivion
this time. Her Jaw had dropped.
She wss staring straight at Su
sanna Coin with eyes that were
already glazed and sightless.

ease is not properly named, un
doubtedly tne perm wul persist.
Rose fever is known by other
names, particularly ;nay rever,
while often it is called spring
fever. The disease may continue
into August, do it might as well
be called summer fever.
Bay fever and other similar ail
ments are found to run in fam
ilies. Although not definitely
proved, the tendency may actually
bo hereditary.
'Perhaps tho most characteristic
symptom is a sensation of heat and
fullness in the eves, witn redness
and discharge of tears. . The smart
ing and itching are intense, soon
the eyes become inflamed and die-
charge mors and more freely.
With many the most annoying
complaint is ths severe sneexing.
This Is the natural result of tho
pronounced irritation of the nose.
There is not only sneezing, but vio
