OLD TOURAINE IS HISTORIC Marvels of Nature and Beauty Drew Many of Noble Family to i the District. Touraine is as rich in historic interest as it is in its natural beau ties, declares Frederic Lees, in Architectural Record. The house of Valois had a special liking for the banks of the Loire, and the great, nobles of their court built near the royal residences their own chateaux marvels of archi tectural . grace, V strength and beauty, but of which there is not a stone that is not cemented with blood. For the Valois lived in an atmosphere of intrigue, f raud and violence. They were always being conspired against, and they met plot with counter plot; if treason could not be met with force, a sud den surprise or stab in the dark, or the malignant skill of some Ital ian chemist, laid to rest forever suspicions which might have been unfounded. It is but fair to state, however, that this was not often the case, for the nobles were tur bulent and ambitious, and when hot engaged in waging war openly or covertly with their soverign, quarreled among themselves, and led forth theirretainers to surprise 3i- besiege a neighboring castle. On the battlement of every don jon there was a watchman, day and night, ever on the lookout for the glint of arms in the valley be low; and ready to his hand was a huge horn, one blast of which would alarm the garrison . and bring them to the walls. A few feet below the watchman there dangled from a jutting beam the corpse of some poor wretch, and in the loathsome dungeons be neath the moat others were chained to the reeking walls, for every castellan had the right of administering "greater and lesser justice," and could dispose of the lives and liberties of his vassals as he deemed fit. He had other priv ileges also, some of which make as wonder why the revolution did not pome earlier.

KIDNEY D GREAT PROFIT FROM DOGS Host Important Branch of Manchu rian Trade Is Selling1 of Canine ' and Goat Skins. By far the most important branch of the skin and fur trade of Manchuria consists of the skins of the domesticated animals the dog and the goat, says Hosie's "Ma nchuria." Many thousands of these skins are annually exported from Niuchwang and Tientsin and ultimately find their way princi pally to the United States. There are thousands of small dog and goat farms scattered over the northern districts of Man churia and Mongolia where from ten to hundreds of animals are reared yearly. VTien a girl is mar ried she receives perhaps six dogs as her dowry, and it can be easily un derstood that this comparatively small beginning may be the foun dation of a large fortune, seeing that the reproduction of ten per annum would in a few years give an enormous total. A dog matures in from six to eight months, and the fur is at its best during the winter; so that the animal must be destroyed before the thaw sets in. Nature has provided a magnifi cent protection to withstand the c old of these northern latitudes, 'n.-T,ore ti,e thermometer (Fahreti' he it) goes down to 25 degrees be low zero i. e.. 57 degrees of frost and it is doubtful if dog skins in pny other part of the world are to ' compared with those that come f om Manchuria or . Mongolia, c'rher in size, length of hair or fiality. The" question of food for go many animals naturally pre sets itself. If they had to be kept entirely by their masters the in retry would not be a pnyine one. The coarsest grain millet that is pot good enough for. the horses r';::ed with ordure 'and -rubbish of t'-p farm is always ready for them v. '-en by foraging outside they are unable to satisfy the pangs of hun ger. ' PARIS FOOD PRICES HIGH. Cost of Provisions in the French. Cap ital Greater Than Here, Says a Writer. "Fish and poultry are sold by the l-ioce, most fruit by the pound, also nearly all vegetables like I beans, potatoes and spinach. Lut salads, cauliflowers and cab bies are sold, by the head, says "...nne Constentin, in -Good IT keeping. -. Many varieties of food are more expensive in France than in Amer ica.

Scattering of Bread Crumb to Faath ery Tribe Is Always Wel comed by Them. When the ground is covered with snow, there are birds suffering for w."it of food. All the birds here--;s: '-:b do not go to a warmer cli m;;ii when winter comes. Go into i !. woods n ( Ay any winter after noon and unless the cold is ex treme or the winds very strong birds -of many families may be found.

The birds will find it very nnn and they , will bring oth"-'.- t the place where there is foo ' i timp. of snow. Sparrows? Yes. ' !

'Gene Simpson, of this city, has at present in the neighbor hood of 300 young China ph?a sants that he has raised this sea son.: He has had splendid . suc cess, the reward for unusual care on his part. There is scarcely a week goes by1 now without an order from parties in other states for "pheasants. Yesterday he shipped a pair of pheasants to Redwood City, California, and another pair to Pueblo, Colorado. Within a day or two be will send a pair of pheasants to parties in Illinois. The .game warden at the Lewis and Clark Fair re cetftly requested Mr. Simpson to send him some very young birds tor exhibition purposes. Mr. Simpson thought it too risky to send such young pheasants as were requested, but sent down some young birds that he con sidered "weaned.!' v The law is very strict on the matter of sending these birds to parties without the state. There is a form to be filled out by the party raising the pheasants in case he desires to send them from the state. This form after being filled out and duly sworn to be fore a notary public has to be forwarded to the . state game warden for his approval before the birds may be shipped. In order to snow the requirements of the law we hereby produce a form it is necessary to fill out, as follows: State of Oregon, ) County of Benton. ) I,. ............ ..... first being duly sworn, say I am the owner and in possession ot . . .;. ...... . . .China or Mongo lian Pheasants, that the said pheasants are fully ' domesticated birds, having been raised in con finement, and are kept for pro pagating purposes, that affiant desires to ship the said birds without the - State ot Oregon, towit: ' To................ ........... ......That this affi davit is made for the purpose of securing from J. W. Baker, State Game Warden, a permit, under and by virtue of section 8 of an act for the preservation and pro tection of Forests, Game and Wild Fowl, approved February 27, 1901, to shiosaid birds with out the. state, and to said place. Subscribed and sworn to be fore me this ... . .......day of ... ,190 Notary Public for Oregon. On the receipt of the above duly made out the game warden, if the considers everything on the square and the party making ap plication worthy and honest will grant the permit for sending the pheasants abioad. Magnificent Structure. For some time the board of directors of the M- E. church of this city have been figuring on making some very elaborate im provements on their building. Yesterday morning the contract for doing the work was awarded to Charles Heckart. The entire structure is to be enlarged. The building will be raised some three or four feet and a 10-foot basement constructed. It is proposed to divide the base ment into various rooms accord ing to requirements. A very fine entrance is to be built in the east end of the church in addition to the one already ip use. Another entrance is to be made at the southwest corner of the church. Along, the entire south side of the edifice an addition is to be built and this is ro be divided in to a library, r.-ception room, lobbv, etc.; Altogether, ihe pro posed improvements are to foot up to about $5,000. The im provements to be undertaken at once by Mr. Heckart are to cost in the neighborhood of $3,000, most likely a litt!e in excess ot this sum. When all . details of the present plans have "been car ried out it is thought that this will be as fine as any' church in the state outside of Portland. Beaveb Cbeik Last Thursday aftevnoon while hauling bundles preparatory to stacking their giain Martin and Terry Butler were bad ly injured, caused by over turning of their wagon.
