Do Young, editor of the San Francisco Chronicle In giving his opinion on the management of fairs, to the Oregonlan, makes some obser vations which Oregon cannot afford to follow. It Is true Mr. De Young successful- two of the number had lived In the Hawaiian Islands, one of the two having been foreman on a sugar plan tation. Two of the number had spent considerable time In Alaska, one hav- lug gone there In '07 by way of the Valdes Glacier route. .Moat of the olhois had traveled extensively In most of the Western states. It Is this learning by actual seeing and person al observation .that makes the West erner a man of broad intelligence, good Judgment and ready resource. It Is this that gives him the faculty of falling on his feet. As an Illustration of the vailed el ements of which we are formed here In the West, take the composition of our last legislature. This will prove fairly typical of the stnte at large. Of the ninety members, two were born In New York, four In Iowa, nine In Illinois, two in .Minnesota, one in what was then the territory of Ore gon, but is now the state of Wash ington, one in .Massachusetts, foil'- in Pennsylvania, three in Wisconsin, four In Ohio, one In New Hampshire, one in Virginia, one in Now Jersey. two. It Is, of course, easier to give a trial to some drug thnn It is in enter upon n self-denying coursO of oxer else and bathing, fresh air, iiMtleuco, and nbstlnence from enndy. The ad vertised drug may bo harmless, In which case It Is llkoly to do no good. I.' It has aomo quickly potent effect, it possesses proportlcs that should leave It to the control of a trained physician who knows something of his patient before he writes a pre scription. Young people, fortunately, are like ly to bo good sleepers. When for any reason thoy are not they are also likely to be more intolerant of th tedium of wakeful hours than are their more disciplined elders, Here again It Is easy to experiment with scmo one of the mnuv "quieting medicines, so highly spoken ol, so "harmless." A cool sponging off, flv minutes' brisk exercise, and n slowly sipped cup of hot milk would be much bettor, and would prevail eventually 11 not the very first night. Many victim of the morphine habit owes th first Impulse to the self-presehlbed quieting doses of some well-disguised lar-dlstunt cousin of that valuable, but much abused and dangerous drug. It Is a well known fart that alcohol is the basis of many of tho so-culled tonics, and Is to be found in rnnsld erable quantities In some of them Whatever opinion one may hold of alcohol as a medicine, nothing can bo said in favor of allowing It tc masquerade In unknown quantities anil doubtful quality in all sorts of medicines put up for self-doctoring No more Insidious plan for the form lug of 'i bad habit could be dovlsed. If one needs alcohol one s doctor will know It. and how much and what kind: and the safo way Is to go to him for a prescription. We have all heard of the man who was unwilling to wash In tho River Jordan because he oxpected that a miracle would ho performed. The Jordan Is for nil of us tho formation of clean, healthy common-sense habits. Then wo shall not need miracles. Youth's Compan Ion. INCREASED ASSESSMENT, CREASED TAX RATE.

When asked about a woman's de partment and woman's work at the fair, .Mr. DeYoung smilingly said that Is there any presentable reason why they should not pay taxes according ot the real value of these lands, the same as a man who goes into tho open, or clears up a place, and makes a home, pays on his property? If so. what is this reason? This Is a ques tion that the taxpayers of overy tim bered county would do well to ask of their assessors, What are the timber lands of Ore- eon worth today? Far more, every body knows, than our total state as sessment. What portion of our taxes do the owners of this magnificent property, rapidly Increasing in value without the owners turning a hand' or lifting a finger, pay? A very small, nn Insignificant nroportlon. Tho lesson Is plain nnd simple. Tux these lands according to value. Then In 1005 wo shall probably have a Har- is or a Davoy law for taxing corpor ations; and in a few years Oregon can show up with taxable property amounting to sz5u.uou.0w) or $300,000 To the nn'l n tn rate decreased In pro- lorrion, THE EVENING OF LIFE Declinine vears the time when one is on the other side of the hill, call for constant care in the matter oi nutrition. Life then depends so much on the body's power to repair loss and waste. This power grows less and less. The ability to shake off local disorders and to draw heavily on the body's reserve force are privileges that youth alone can claim, With age comes slow movement, slower operation a the whole body's forces. Trifles become burdens and we live in the past. Ordinary food no longer nourishes. Poor teeth, perhaps, and improper mastication give the stomach work that it is not supposed to do the digestion is taxed and even injured when it should be troubled least. Many elderly persons get strength and nourishment from Scott's Emulsion It slips into the blood so quickly that the stomach is not aware of its presence. Not only does Scott's Emulsion furnish nourishment itself, but it helps to digest other food. It aids in the proper distribution of food benefits simplifies the stomach's- work. Moreover, the lime and soda contained in Scott's Emulsion in the form of hypophosphites nourish the bones and reduce the acid in the blood which feeds rheumatism.
