The Seattle News prints the follow ing Item concerning the rank dls-, crimination of the coal companies against Seattle: During the past two and one-halt months, according to the records In the office of the harbormaster of Seattle, 118,947 tons of coal has been shipped on vessels leaving this port, says the News. This coal has been sent principally to points In southeastern Alaska and to Califor nia. During October the shipments amounted to 47.488 tons. During November 47,644 tons were shipped. For the first 15 days of December the shipments have amounted to 23, S20 tons. A glance at the figures given in the foregoing shows that notwithstanding the local shortage of coal the ship ments to outside points have not di minished during the present month, or during the floods of December. ' James Anderson, chief engineer of the Pacific Coast company, and man ager of the mines controlled by that concern, stated recently before the Seattle Commercial club that during the month of November 87.600 tons of. coal were mined by that company, all of which was shipped to Seattle, except 5200 tons. Mr. Anderson neglected to state how much of the coal, however, was loaded In vessels in the harbor after being shipped to Seattle, Cost of Congressional Record.

They form the habit of doing a certain thing and often continue it after improvements have been made. Take shortening for 'instance. The old time way was to purchase bulk lard, in a barrel or tub, which the grocer uncovered as soon as received, leaving it open to dirt, dust and files, exposing it in some cases to the sun with the possibility of its becoming rancid, and permit ting it to be placed where it would be likely to absorb the odor of cod-fish, soap or kerosene oil. This is an old-fashioned, out-of-date method of buying shortening, but many people still continue It. We wonder why? Probably, just a matter of habit. There is a better way. Cottolene is not only superior to lard as a shortening, from the fact that It is a vegetable, and cleanly product, while lard is made from greasy, indigestible hog-fat, but Cottolene reaches the consumer in the same condition it was on the day we manufactured it. If cleanliness, healthfulness, economy and superiority count for anything there is no excuse for any housewife, in the land using other than Cottolene for shortening and frying. You owe it to yourself and family, as a careful housewife, to give Cottolene a test, and verify the claims we 'make for it. Any one who expects to live his allotted three score years and ten cannot afford to exper iment with lard cooked food. It is a foe to good digestion and a healthful condition of the stomach Cottolene is the only satisfactory and perfect shortening. COTTOLENE was granted a GRAND PRIZE (highest possible award) over all other cooking fats at the recent Louisiana Purchase Exposition, and food cooked with COTTOLENE another GRAND PRIZE.

Pioneer Memories. Floyd Vaughan made the trip from Fugone to Portland and back yester day, quite a contract with the first time he went there, says the Eugene Guard. That was In 1856, a half cen tury ago. There were no bridges In those days and with no bni9h and no fencing the pioneer picked his road anywhere, only he had to strike the fords and ferries. It took three weeks to make the trip with ox teams, there being few horses and those useless for hauling heavy loads on the soft ground. ' Mr. Vaughan, who bears his 75 years lightly, notwithstanding a mlxup with his Jersey bull a few years ago, came to the state in 1847, nearly 60 years ago, and to Lane county In 1856.
