ing. .feter Cooper once said: "In all towns
where a newspaper is published every
man should advertise in it, even if noth-
ing more th?n a card stating his name
and business ho is engaged in. It dbes
not only pay tho advertiser but it lets the
people at a distance know that the town
you reside in is a prosperous community
of business men. As the seed is sown
?ho fruit recompenses. Never pull down
your sign while you expect to do busi
ness." Post Commander R. V. Monteith is

Brown to make tho necessary arrange

fine lectarer, and when they arrive thero

Tho columns of a daily newspaper are
a good deal like a bill of fare at a res
taurant. No one wants to eat all ho
finds on the printed slip before him when
he cits down to tho table, yet he will be
sure to find some one or two things that
suit him. Every one has different tastes
and the littlo item that you disagree with
and wonder why it is there and feel may
be a little mad about it, is, perhaps, just
what tho man sitting opposite to you
wanted to see. Thero is a heap of hu
man nature in most folks and the daily
paper can only hold the mirror up for
you to see 3our own reflection in it.
Twenly-fivo Scandinavian immigrants
are the latest addition to Astoria's pDpuIa
tion. They join friends already here. They
have had some queer experiences along
the road. At Bonneville when they were
passing through they wanted some cof
fee, and ono of them, a woman named
Greta ltankalo went to the hotel to get
some. She had a quart can in her hand
and tho avaricious miser that runs tho
hotel at Bonneville filled tho can two
thirds full and charged tho woman
seventy-five cents. Another who went
with a cup to get a littlo mora was
charged twenty-fivo cents for a few sup?.
A man in the cars named Thompson
heard them talking of it in their own
language and thoy were unanimous in
agreeing that for meanness that Bonne
ville man beat any ono they had met
smco leaving tueir normern nome.
THKX AD OlV.
Thero i3 a good deal of difference be
tween existing circumstances now and a
comparatively short time ago. TLen
loggers were getting 120 and board;
now they get 40; then wheat was worth
1.20 a bushel on board at Astoria, now
it is worth 7.1 cents: then it cost three
cents to send a half-ounco letter to Ilwa
co or Flerida: now it costs two
cents to send an ounco letter to tho samo
points; then butter was six bits a roll,
now it is forty cents; then eggs wero four
bits a dozen, now they are twenty cents;
then it cost two bits to get shaved, now
it costs By George! it costs two bits
now how is that? then hay was all the
way from twenty to thirty dollars a ten:
now it is worth a good deal less; then
salmon was five dollars a case, now it is
four, that is somo salmon is; then The
AsToniAN was twenty-fivo cents a week:
now it is fifteen; then coal was ten and
twelve dollars a ten: now it is eight; then
ham was twenty-one cents a peund: now
it is fifteen; then logs were selling at
eight dellars: now sales are slow at 4Ji0;
then hops wero a dollar a peund: now
they aro six cents; then it cost an Asto
riau 20 fare to San Francisce: now it
costs just tho same wherefore? then wo

they had a mind to ask now Chicago

Black John Gordon Tale a Conhldin? and
Gives Back a Bigger One.
John Gordon was a famous Indian
scout fifty years ago. Ho was a captain
under General Jackson when that old
hero was fighting Indians in tho far
south. Gordon lived in Maury county,
this state, and was known far and wide
as Black John Gordon. He was thus
called because his skin was quito dark,
and his hair and beard black 'as a raven.
Ho was a stranger to fear. The Indians
regarded him as an evil spirit. His
very name was a terror to his enemies,
and no man, be he bully or brave, cared
to engage him in a -difficulty. His name
was a familiar ono in every household
on account of his deeds of daring and
tho success which always attended his
ventures in war. Ono day, after tho In
dian war, Gordon visited Nashville to
make somo family purchases. In tho?o
days there were no specialty stores all
stores were general; that is, everything
that a farmer might need was kept by all
tho stores. Among tho storekeepers of
that time was a man whoso name, I
think, was Martin. Gordon stepped in
to tho store and Martin waited upon him.
Tho list of purchases embraced many
things, and when the last ono was
wrapped up Gordon inquired what the
bill was. Martin told him, and Gordon
denied tho correctness of the amount.
Martin took this as an insult and said ho
would cowhide Gordon unless ho apolo
gized. Gordon persisted in his state
ment that Martin was wrong in his
figures. You must know that whilo
Martin had often heard of Black John
Gordon ho was not awaro that his cus
tomer was the famous scout. Finding
that Gordon would not retract, Martin
took down a cowhido from tho shelf,
drew his pistol on Gordon and proceeded
to chastise him. Gordon did not move,
but looked Martin right in the eye and
audibly counted tho licks. Martin gavo
him jast fortj. When ho was through
Gordon remarked in a cool but polite
way that he would call to seo Martin
again and went out.
The news of tho cowhiding soon
spread and citizens and loungers began
to gather at Martin's to learn the par
ticulars. "'Who is tho nipn you whipped?' asked
a tali, dark-whiskered man.
' Ho said his name was Gordon,' re
plied Martin, 'and that ho lived in Maury
connty.'
'"Great Caesar? exclaimed tho tall
man. 'I'll bet my soul it was what
kind of a looking man was he?'
' 'A littlo fellow, verv dark, with black
hair and beard,' said Martin. Do yon
know him?'
"'Know him! I should say I did.
Why that's Black John Gordon, and I'll
bet my eyes ho'll como back and either
kill or cowhide you.'
As soon as Martin heard tho name
Black John Gordon, his courage failed
him and he weakened. Presently Gordon
was seen coming leisurely down the
street with a cowhide in his hand. As ho
entered Martin's store ho drew his pistol
and requested Martin to como around m
front. Martin obeyed like a guilty child,
and without another word Gordon ad
ministered to him a thrashing of forty
lashes. When ho had counted forty, ho
remarked:
" 'Yon gavo mo forty lashes. I havo
paid you back, lash for lash, and now I
will pay you the interest, which is 1C0
per cent.'
"And he did,"" added tho narrator.

Light Healthy Bread,
A SCIENTIFIC FACT.
"Royal" the only Baking Powder free from
Lime and Absolutely Pure.
Lime is the serious defect found in most of the
cream of tartar baking powders. As a matter of fact,
chemical anatysis has found it in all such powders
except the ''Royal." It-; presence is caused by the
use of adulterated cream of tartar in the effort to
reduce their cost of production.
Lime adds to the weight while
the strength of the baking powder.
the food less wholesome, giving rise to dyspepsia and
kindred ailments. Baking powders containing lime pro
duce less leavening gas, and therefore in use are more
expensive than a first-class, pure article.
The Royal Baking Powder is made from cream of
tartar that is first specially refined and made chemically
pure. No tartrate of lime or other impurity can find
its way into the "Royal," and to this fact its great
superiority in strength, wholesomeness, and keeping
quality is due.
All this adds greatly to the cost of manufacturing
the Royal Baking Powder, but as all its ingredients
are selected and prepared with the same precise care
and regardless of labor or expense, an article is pro
duced that is free from every extraneous substance
"absolutely pure." itfor does it contain any ingre
dients except those necessary to make a pure, whole
some, and perfect baking powder.
Professor McMurtrie, late chemist in chief to the
U. S. Department of Agriculture, alter analyzing the
various baking powders of the market, testifies to the
absolute purity of that used in the Royal Baking
Powder as follews:
"I. have examined the cream of tartar manufactured
by the New York Tartar Company and used by the
Royal Baking Powder Company in the manufacture of
their baking Powder, and find it to be perfectly pure,
and free from lime in any form.
