CHANCES OF LONGEVITY.
Primary Conditions Necessary to a Long
and Healthy Life.
"The primary conditions of longer
ity," the Mejdical Kecord quotes Mr.
F. W. Warmer a saying-, ' are that the
heart, Jungs and digestive organs, as
well as the braiiu should be large. If
these organs are large the trunk will
be long and the limbs comparatively
short. The person will appear tall
in sittintr and short in standing. The
hand will have a long and somewhat
heavy palm and short fingers. The
brain will be deeply seated, as shown by
t he orifice of the ear being low. 1 in
blue hazel or brown hazel eye, as show
ing an intermission of temperament
ia a favorable indication. The nostrils
beincr large, oix-u and free indicates
large lungs. A pinched and hal I: -closed
nostril indicates small or weak lungs.
"In the case, of persons who have
short-lived parentage on one side and
long-lived on the otlieir side the ques
tion becomes more involved. Jt is
Bhown in grafting by hybridizing that
nature makes a supreme effort to pass
the period of the shorter longevity and
extend the life to the greater longevity.
Anyone who understands these weak
and dangerous periods of life is fore
warned and fornj-med. It has been ob
served that the children of long-lived
.parents mature much later and are
usually backward in their studies." .
TRUTH CRUSHED TO EARTH.
Sad Effects of Too Mnrh Candor in an
Aristocratic Mansion.
Two fair young girls sat in a dainty
boudoir gazing into each other's eyes,
enys the .New York Herald.
"Wie are such good friends, Marciu,"
said one, "and w cum afford to say
to ejileh other just what wethink. Now,
I have such a splendid scheme. Sup
pose wc start out to-day by telling each
other the exact truth, without regard
to any question of politeness."
"How perfectly lovely, Imbed La,"
cooed the younger girl of the two.
"Let's begin right away. What do
you think of me?"
"I think," said Maircia, "that you are
aimont its pretty us you think you are,
and when you don't try to be, you are
the most charming girl in the world."
"How awfully good of you," rejoined
the other, "imwI do you know that when
you cam) in I was thinking that you
looked just like one of those big feat her
dusU'i's whl'.di had taken a notion to
w alk? Only your feet are so very large
that the illusion was not quite perfect."
Two disheveled young wonnen, wit!)
their fue-es cross lined by scratches,
were taken out of that aristocratic

A Valuable Addition to Meat Dressings
and Nouns.
The peanut, which for so many years
luifl been the popular feature of the
country fair mid the circiiH, is now
creeping Into prominence. Doctors
have found 1 hat the peanut is an art icle
of food, "ricl in albumen, of which it
contains 50 per cent.," and are now
recommending them as a valuable addi
tion to the diet in the form of soups,
purees nnd mush. The following are
some, of the wny in which they may be
iimvti:
Peanuts rolled fine and added to the
bread stulling for duckn is a great nihil
(ion and greatly improves it. Make a
iiuiyoniiuise dressing, mush the pea
nuts line, and stir them in thickly and
spread between thin slices of breiid a.s
a sandwich; or plain buttered bread

They may also bo liurly chopped and
eaten w ith milk, A very good soupmny

No County Beat Agitation.
S. A. D. Gurley, of Arlington, writes
to tbe Oregonian, in regard to tbe coun
ty seat question, as follows: "Referring
to tbe interview with S. G. Hawson, an
aoooont of which appeared in your daily
issue of tbe 21st., in wbiob Mr. Hawson,
is reported to have said that tbe business
men of Arlington propose to ask the
next legislature to pass bo act enabling
Gilliam ooonty citizens to reoonsider
tbe question ot oounty seat, and that an
attempt would be made to remove tbe
oounty seat from Condon to Arlington.
I wish to say that as a taxpayer and cit
izen of Arlington I most emphatically
repudiate tbe assertion. There has not
been nor is there now, any attempt on
the part ot the oitizens of this place to
agitate the oounty seat question, Mr.
Hawson does not own any property here
nor has he at any time been tbe bolder
or owner ot any real estate in Ibe town
ot Arlington ; and is now, and bus been
or some time, to all intents and purpos
es, a resident of Multnomah county, or
some oounty other thau Gilliam.
Ibe mere fact that this representative
district ooutains about 6000 voters illus-
rates very forcibly the insignificance of
this preoiuot in the election of a repre
sentative. I submit that Mr. Hawson
does not represent tbe business men of
this town when he outlines what he sop-
poses to be the plan of campaign with
reference to the oounty seat of this ooun
ty. Whether or not the statements at-
ributed to him were mnde for tbe pur
pose of attempting to array other sec-
ion of this county against Arlington,!
shall leave to the consideration of others
without expressing an opinion,"

Russian scientists have lately been
studying the curious island of Kildine,
oil' the coast of Russian Lapland, and
separated from it by a narrow strait.
This island, says the New York Sun,
has a hike that has no visible connec
tion wit h the sea, but is affected with
tidal movements. To bo sure, the tides
in the lake rise and fall only a few
inches, while those in the surrounding
sen riso and fall several feet. The peri
odicity of the lake tides makes it plain
that the lake has subterranean commu
nication with the sea.
The, w ater on the island is of three
kinds, fresh water from rains and from
brooks at the highest points; u little
lower salt water like that of the sea;
nt the lowest point sea water, sur
charged with free sulphuretted hydro
gen. The fresh water is inhabited by the
niiinialliftiun.mil in the fresh water of
that region. The salt water has sea
ereutures, sponges and tho like, while
the water surcharged with sulphuretted
hydrogen has neither vegetable nor
animal life. Tho phenomenon of this
sulphuretted hydrogen has its counter
part in the depths of the lllaek sea,
where the presence of the pas destroys
animal and vegetable life.

"To Girls About to Marry."
Advice under the above heading in the Ore
gon Scout of Sept., 2!th attracted my attention,
and as the subject is a very important one, per
haps you will give space to something more
scientific and practical.
If the reader will mark out a circle on paper,
4 to 6 inches in diameter, divide It Into 12 equal
parts by crosslines, then commencing at the top
and going around to the left mark out each di
vision as follows:
Aries March 17 to April 19.
Taurus April 19 to May 20.
Gemini May 20 to June 21.
Cancer June 21 to July 22.
Leo July 22 to August 23.
Virgo August 23 to September 16.
Libra September 26 to October 17.
Scorpio October 17 to November 22.
Sagittarius November 22 to December 21.
Capricorn December 21 to to January 16.
Aquarius January 16 to February 15.
Pisces February 15 to March 17.
You will now have a zodical circle. Those
born between the dates of the first three signs,
Aries, etc., belong to the mental or intellectual
class; the second three signs, or quarter, the
maternal class; he third quarter the reproduc
tive class, and the last quarter, or three signs,
the serving class, usually mercantile line.
It will now be easy for you to see what sign
you were born in, and your first choice for a
huBband should be one born directly opposite
For example, if you were born In the sign of
Aries, between March 17 and April 19, your hus
band should be one born when the earth was
directly opposite in the sign of Libra, viz: be
tween Sept. 16 and Oct 17, and soon with any
one of the signs. While opposites are usually
the best adapted to each other as life partners,
sometimes those born ninety degrees apart do
quite well. - Each division is thirty degrees, so
ninety degrees from Aries would be Cancer, the
head of the maternal quarter or class, or, In the
opposite direcfion, Capricorn, the head of the
serving or business class. Either of the these
three would do well with Aries, while as a rule
no others would live together happily. Some
natures will mix no better than water and oil,
hence so many unhappy marriages and separa
tions. The first paragraph in the advice mentioned
Is, "A man doesn't want to be asked Mb reasons
for anything he does," Marriage is a partner
ship. How long would1 partners in any busi
ness work together in harmony If they refused
to give reason for their transactions?
To the 2d and 3d paragraphs I would say, con
sider these things beforehand and if you cannot
adapt yourself to the conditions, don't marry.
To the 4th paragraph, while the duties oi each
Bhould be their first consideration, as partners
they have equal rights, and if your husband
prospective is not Inclined to grant you "equal
rights with him, don't marry him. Marriage
should be a civil contract between the parties
and considered as thoughtfully and carefully as
any other important business transaction, more
so, in fact, if you would avoid future trouble.
The ceremony of the Rev or J. P. simply legal
izes the contract without In anyway affecting
the morality of the act.
The earth on which we live is only one planet
in our solar system, and It, with everything
pertaining to It, is affected by the other planets
of our system; therefore the position of the
earth, moon and other planets at the time of
birth endow the person with certain character
istics which we are able to delineate when
furnished with the date of birth. Send me the
date of your birth, and that of your intended
husband, and 11.00, and I will give you a full
delineation of his character; then If you make
a mistake In marriage It will be your own fault.
