FLOWERS OF SPRING Today, while the battle of ballots la raging, let us forget the LeaKue of nations and tbe campaign tor tliis office and that, and think of some of the things that are around us In tbe spring time that we have been overlooking as we rotiHidered candidates and measures. The most interesting thing that one comes to realize about the change of seasons in this Central Oregon country is the fact of their almost imperceptible transition from one to tbe next. Chiefly the reason is because we have so few deciduous trees. In other sections autumn is associated with falling leaves, "sere and yellow," the grasses turn brown and tbe fall rains make muddy roads that soon, in the colder reg ions, become frozen ruts. Then, in tbe spring, the action is reversed. There is more mud in the roads un til i the long drying period has passed, slowly the grass turns green and the leaves begin to come out. Here,' on the other hand, tbe trees are always the same. Tbe seasons make no change. On sunny lawns the grass is always green. . Roads are often dusty, even in January. The! change to spring is marked chiefly by longer days of sunshine. There is. one aspect of the sea son, however, here as elsewhere, that does especially distinguish it irom the others and that is the blossoming of tbe spring flowers. First comes tbe Wild currant. Even In March its little, angular leaves 6egin to develop, and she warm days of April soon bring out the pink and' white, bell-shaped flowers that too soon are faded by dust. Then comes the yellow, wax like clusters of blossoms on the Infrequent and stunted branches ot our state flower, tbe Oregon grape, while, out In the woods the man- zaxuta, green-leaved tbe year around, puts out the blossom that in all but its lack of fragrance re minds one ot the trailing arbutus of New England. Soon, too, there comes in tbe woods tbe stately and fragrant mountain lily. These are flowers ot the waste spaces. : While they are putting forth there comes by the river and in the lawn the flower that is a de light to the children, but a weed to tbe gardener the dandelion. Just now there is another blos som that appeals especially to the children, tbe "star-scattered," white petaled and yellow-centered sand lily, with its long grass-like leaves. Always it is found in spots so dry and dusty that its appearance, in its fragile beauty, is like a miracle. A little yellow violet is coming now with tbe sand lily and soon the same places will also see tbe deli cate blue blosEom of the flax. Tbe climax of spring blossoms to us Is the flower of the cbemisal. The individual blossoms are not especially striking, but there Is a mass effect of yellow, when a bush Is in full bloom, that makes it stand out above any other flower or shrub. With its color there is also a fragrance of heliotrope and spice, brought out most fully on the warmer days, that is almost over powering. When the election smoke has cleared away, go out for a walk and look for some of these flowers. JlAvf aVWaIt Mon t-O"? You Know Her. The stately domestic is frequently seen; she's grand and majestic, patrician her mien; with hauteur she dishes the loaves and the fishes; we., bow to her wishes and hail her as queen. This damsel resplendent in .ermine is shod; so blamed independent she quits at a nod; then nothing will stay her, dissuade or delay her, and when I would Eay her it takes all my wad. She's boss of the ovel wherein I reside; before her I grovel, and drop all my pride; she sits in a rocker and reads a cheap shocker, and she is a mocker when grub should be fried To movies she prances whenever she likes; to blow-outs and dances she gaudily hikes; no dinner is stewing, no coffee is brewing, for rags she is chewing with Peters and Mikes. She flies into rages, throws fits in the hall, and says that her wages are needlessly small; she soon must be earning more money for burning or she will be turning my map to the wall. I do not desire her, I find her a curse ; but if I should fire her the next would be worse; and so she goes spoiling the grub in the boiling, while I'm sadly toiling her wage to disburse. GOT RID OF MALCONTENTS the fires through which It had passed. The delegates assembled at Chicago May 20, 186S. Their mandate was a foregone conclusion. Indeed, the convention was so impatient to nominate Gen eral Grant that some of the dele gates sought to precipitate a deci sion before the convention was ready. Carl Schurz of Missouri was tem porary chairman: General Joseph R. Hawley of Connecticut presided permanently. General John A. Lo gan finally presented Grant's- name to the convention in a single son tence. and promptly the convention gave him its complete total of 63-i votes. Six roll-calls were necessary, how ever, to name a vice-president. Ben jamin F. Wade of Ohio, led on the first four. ' Schuyler Colfax of Indi ana, passed hi in on the fifth the deflection from Wade being led by delegates . from his own state and and Colfax was nominated on the sixth. The platform renewed the paity's guarantee of equal male suffrage, reiterated the pledge to redeem the public debt, denied the European theories of indefeasable allegiance under which no naturalized Ameri can citizen could ever entirely thro' off the yokes of alien nativity, ai d bespoke encouragement to immigra tion. -Grant's letter of acceptance com prised but 211 words, completing tbe novel record for brevity which Logan began when he nominated Grant in 55 words.

SHOES RUN INTO MONEY Continued tonuirroiv, with story of the fifth convention. the Wanted Blame Properly Placed. Rosemary, aged four, slid her twin latere, aged two. were left in tbe care of a friend who also had three chil dren of about the same ages. Dur ing ttie afternoon the friend heard one ot the children in her pantry and, thinking to frighten the child out of the pantry without going In, said: "I bear some one In my pantry." Rose mary quickly walked over to her and said: "It's not any of ours; it's one of ynur own." when there Is a large family and when the footwear Is not wlBely selected. If you want to cut down your shoe expense, do your buying here. Our footwear costs no morn, has all tbe style and class and an EXTRA WEARING QUALITY . that makes the buying of a new ' parr less frequently necessary. Bend Shoe Co. G. O. P.
