Many thousand will pass way this winter for want of pure air, which is abund ant and free. — T. B. Terry in Practical Farmer.

If the cor- educated woman to humbly state- porations can’t get what they before that great audience that want, they appear to be will- they had buried four little ones, | ing to take what they can get. Simon Guggenheim, the self confessed purchaser of tho office of United States Senator from Colorado, is at least frank ♦ nough to say just how he secured the senatorial plum. Money played its parts in Oregon’s senatorial race last June, causing some to be of the opinion (the writer in cluded) that there ought to be a limit placed upon the amount of money an office seeker shall spend in securing his nomination and election. The way the mat ter stands now. success at the polls depends largely upon the amount spent in advertising, printing and postage. “All coin looks alike to me,” was recently found over the name of an Oregon newspaper. All coin looks alike to a good many men. that is the reason so many vampires are feeding and waxing fat off the earnings of the ignor ant. the drunkard, the fallen, the decrepit, the widow, the orp han and the innocent and help less. The country is in great need of men who can and will discriminate between money hon estly earned, and money that comes from graft, and the ruin of the mind, soul and body of mankind. So many persons seem to be indifferent to the value of time, yet all who would be successful must learn its value. "I wasted time and now doth time waste me.” said Shakespeare. Per haps the best known and one of the most truthful sayings con cerning lost time was that by Horace Mann. “Lost! somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered, for they are gone for ever.” It will pay well to make the best of one’s time for the longest life is but a span. “Several reciprocal demurrage bills are now before the legisla ture. All the bills are more or less meritorious. Only one bill can be passed. The bill intro duced by Representative Chapin, of Multnomah county, has the endorsement of the Chamber of Commerce, of Portland, and the Oregon & Washington Lumber Manufactures’ Association' It contains the best features of the Wisconsin, Texas and Virginia bills. It is not an experiment. ” The above is just to all con cerned and ought to be passed. Canada it is said is seriously considering compulsory arbitra tion. New Zealand has success fully settled all disputes between labor and capital by this method for the last twelve years and is so well satisfied with the results that all parties are perfectly will ing to continue the system. It would certainly prove a blessing to Canada and to the United States and we hope the day will soon come when all labor difficul ties will be settled in this way. From indications the Oregon Legislature will establish a new record in the passage of laws favorable to the people. We would suggest that the state has plenty of laws at present. The great trouble appears to be the enforcement of present laws. Anything looking to this end will be gladly received by the citizens of Oregon. That the Monopolist grows only through the commercial death of small competitors whom he un fairly crushes by underselling, is a well known fact. Yet our law makers appear to be slow to so understand the situation, or are afraid to make laws favorable to competition and its consequent reduction of exorbitant profits. Some think that the Kingston earthquake is an indication that a critical time in the shrinking of the earth’s crust has been reached, and that such disasters are likely to be of frequent oc currence.

It « oil'..’ have l«*en well for her could she only realize the promise of the hymn. “Our light affliction, which Is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more ex ceeding and eternal weight of glory” Not so ran Mrs. Vanalttnrt'a Jumble of thoughts. The plans, the schemes, the bttllih*d edifice of tunny years, threatened tn fall In ruin about her. In su* ti bitter mo «1 there was no con solation. She sought not to And spir itual succor, but bewailed the catas trophe wl.lch had hef t lien her.

Each flight was so contrived that It curved across two-thlrds of the superficial nrea all itted to the stair way. Any one ascending made a com plete turn to the right about to reach the door of the room on any given landing and the foot of the ladder to the next. Hence the girl camo unexpectedly face to face with Mrs. Vanslttart. The meeting startled her. This pale wom an. so thinly clad In the demltollet of evening wear on shipboard, should not be standing there. “Is anything wrong?’* she cried, rais ing her lantern Just as Enid did when she encountered the sailors. “No, no," said the other, passing a nervous hand over her face. Con stance, with alert Intelligence, fancied she dreaded recognition. “Then why are you stnndlng bore? It Is so cold. You will surely make yourself 111.” “I was wondering If I might see Mr. Brand." came the desperate answer, the words bubbling forth with unre strained vehemence. “Sec my father?" repeated the girt. She took thought for an Instant. The lighthouse keeper would not be able to leave the lamp for nearly three hours. When dawn came she knew he would have many things to attend to— sfgnnls to the Land’s End. the arrange- ment of supplies, which he hnd al ready mentioned to her. ami a host of other matters. Four o'clock In the morr.lng was an unconventional hour for an Interview, but time Itself was topsy turvy under the conditions prev alent on the Gulf Rock. "I will ask him.” she went on hur riedly. with an uncomfortable feeling that Mrs. Vanslttart resented her Ju dicial pause. “Thank you." To the girl's pnra the coarteoos ac knowlcdgment ron veyed an old note of menace. If the eym nre the win- dows of the soul surely the voice Is Its subtle gauge. The more transparently simple, clean minded the hearer, the more accurate Is the resonant Impres sion. Constance found herself vaguely perplexed by two Jostling abstractions If they took shape It was In mute »pies tlonlng. Why was Mrs. Vanslttart so anxious to revive or. It might be. probs long burled memories, and why did her mobile smile seem to vein a hostile In tent? __ W. II. Snashdll. Aql.. CIRI SIIAM. ORI:. • ••••••••••••••• I )R. 11. H.
