What foolishness. We have yet to hear of a child in Oregon, Washing ton or any other state that ever caught either of these diseases in a tchollhouse. and don't believe that rnyone else ever has. Some of the rchools in this section have dropped off 50 per cent within the last month, mining their schools and having smallpox just the same.

Harry Spence, the gentleman who COST OF OPERATING RAILWAYS. Short Summary of Expenses at One Umatilla County Station. People often complain of the high freight and passenger rates charged i railroads They do not think of ilir expenses altaohod to the opera tion of a railroad. There Is a helper station on the O. R. & N. at Kamela which Is a fair Il lustration of the enormous cost or carrying on the traffic of a large sys tfin or rallioad These helper engines do not haul ttalns oxer the roail Thev do not earn a direct and specified amount by hauling a train from one end of the read to the other, but are an extra ex pense attached to the hauling or reg ular trains For one month the actu al expense or these three helping engines may be rooted up as follows': Salaries of six engineers at $13.") $ Sin Salaries of six firemen at $S1 . . 4S6 Salaries of two wipers at $50 . . 100 Salary of one operator at $60 . . CO lion tons or coal at $5 per ton (normally) 5.000 LalKir, handling coal too Repairs (under normal condi tions ion 'i mo Total j67Bfi This is not an expense of niip month in the year, but a continual drain year In, year out. The public is not fully Informed as to the enormous cost of operating railways. The fieight and passencer iaies seem ratner inadequate to some oi the vast expenditures that are made. A new locomotive costs from $50d0 to JS0O0 and more accord ing to make- Wrecks constitute a large part of the expenses, and are! clean loss to the comnanv. From the track department to the books of the president's office a railway sys tem is a most wonderful, complex bus- Iness. It would be Interesting reading for the public to learn something of the statistical facts of lacir operation MANY GIFTS FOR THE POOR. OUR BIG CLEARANCE Always please the people and customers are alwayssatlt-fjed. The reason for this is that you never get anything but food, tender meats, no matter what you order.

C Reserve force When a great general goes into battle he holds back part of his army for reserve to use in case of need at any point where the fighting line weak ens and the enemy threatens to break through. In the same way a thor oughly healthy human body always has a certain amount of reserve strength at com mand in case of emergency. What Scott's Emulsion does is to build up reserve strength and vital force which the body can use to repair or defend any weak part in the entire system. Everybody who needs good red blood, physical vigor, high spirits and plenty of re serve force should take Scott's Emulsion. It is not a mere stimulant, extract or so-called wine of cod-liver oil, but is rich in actual nourish ment for the blood, the tissues and the nerve cells. Scott's Emulsion contains the whole oil perfectly emulsified and blended with hypophosphites of lime and.. soda in a com bination which is a genuine and perfect food-medicine. We will iend a sample free to anyone on request. SCOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl St., New York. Christmas Takes on a New Signifi cance in Walla Walla Well Wor thy of Emulation. Walla Walla. Dec. 2G "It is more blessed to give than to receive," seem ed to be the moving spirit and high ideal of the Christmas services in this city. While no less demonstrative and general than In past years, the services seemed to take on a new significance, and one well worthy em ulation everywhere. A number of trees were given and exercises held at the various churches and socle ties, ail apparently with one idea prominently pointing a moral. The children of the city were asked to bring to the trees presents for the poor, consisting 01 money, iood or clothing, and at each place a large amount of provisions and some money was secured. It took several dray-loads yesterday to carry all that was secured to central place for distribution. In some of the churches no presents were allowed on the trees, but each child was given nuts and candy In abundance. The presents were piled at tne base of the tree, and later m- moved for the benefit of the 40 or 50 families now in the city in straight ened circumstances. Yesterday, through the effort uti the part of the churches, and the Salva tlon Army, each of the poor families were given enough provision to last nearly a month. Mrs. Kuhn. of tho Salvation Army, struck upon an idea of placing an iron pot on a tripod at a street crossing, by which she stood for two days in the cold and storm. Upon a placard was a call to the mer ciful to contribute to a fund to "keep the pot boiling,' and nearly $50 in sil ver found Its way into the fund to relieve distress in this way. The weather was damp and chilly, and a fog hung over tho city through out the day. The streets were not muddy, but the snow melted slightly and the roads were too sloppy for hleighs and the snow made the wagon seem out of place, yesterday was one of the most quiet days seen In the city in many years.
