If cheerful men were selling for ten cents apiece, and I had a thousand dollars to throw away, I would"nt buy one of them. I used to have a positive reverence for ' a smiling, grinning, bland-voiced man. Many a time I've met Smith or Green or White on my way down town, and it would jump my soul a foot high to hear him call eut: "Well, my boy, beautiful morn ing, eh? Isn't everything just lovely? Why, I seem to be float ing in midair! Why, sir, 1 wouldn't trade this earth for all the heavens ever preached about by the. min isters. Have a cigar? Xo? Then have a drink? Xo? Dear mel but what can I do to brighten you up and make you feel like an angel or roller-skates?'' And I'd stand off and look at him and wonder if the land be yond the skies did really contain a happier soul. Ah! the old hyp ocrite! I got to know in after years that his children were afraid of him, his wife trembled as he entered the door, and that it was his daily habit to growl out as he left the doer: "Wood! I bought 2 worth last g are week. If that's gone we'll without until Saturday. You the most extravagant woman town. I believe you burn it in up to spite me. Soap! 'Didn't I get a bar last Saturday? If you let the children play horse with the soap you must take the consequences." Your habitually cheerful man is an old fraud and liar. He is well- dressed, while his children are the rag-bags of the neighborhood. He has a dollar for cigars when his wjfe wears a bonnet six years old. He passes for a whole-souled fel low with the public, but is a fault finder at home. jf I want to see a man grin when theres anything to grin at, but when Green gets up in the morn ing and declares he hasn't had a meal fit to eat for the last three months, and that ho can't see why his wife is aljvays groaning around and his children always whining, he has no business to stop the first man he meets, with a smile clear back to his ears, and shout eut: "Why, old fel, how solemn you -do look! Brace up, man life is hing; that great fond rememfor he parents are member their w ds ; when lover r bers friend and us" sh cially for them in the East, a eks watching all the late Eu ntly assert that no such disp n as they are all here we sha ble to suit all lasts and pur select goods and have them put e just what they are represented, be distinctly marked and a child ninEr before vou buv elsewhere or worth ihe living ten times over!" 1 used to reverence Green. He had a grip of the hand like a car penter's vice he had a voice as bland as June he'd make a con sumptive believe that nothing more than a sore, heel was the matter. I used to lie in ambush for hirn just to hear his heartv voice and see his serene counten ance, and I'd go about my day's work wondering what sort of a guardian angel he had. T found out one day when a policeman had to go m and stop him from beat- injr his wife. When you find a man who can grin over the servant girl's jump ing out at an hour's notice, with wife flat in bed and the children having a scarlet fever look around the eyes, don't you go off on a fishing trip with him. When a man can soar among angels with bill collectors ringing his door bell last week's grocery bill un paid the children wanting shoes the rent running behind, and his wife coughing all night long, he's an infernal old fraud, and ought to be kicked. When a chap who has frozen the children, jawed the cook, and blasted his wife, as a sort of morning tonic be fore leaving the house, meets 3011 about a block from the gate and is troubled because you haven't got your angel harp on your shoulder, keep your hand on any stray half dollar you happen to have about you. He's mean enough to steal chicken broth from a boy with a broken back. JV. Quad. At Peace. A stoihach in revolt is an obdurate rebel.

Thus, not only dyspepsia, but its Concomi tants, constipation and biliousness, are con quered by the medicine, which remedies their fruitful cause, weakness of the organs of digestion.

Editor Astekiax: The financial side of the liq-nii trade seems the strongest arMi tnent in its favor, that is, the in come from license and taxes to the government; and a prohibi tionist rarelv meets it without a sufficient seasoning of moral salt. I shall endeavor to meet it on its own basis. When a hard drinking working man quits drinking, it is generally admitted that "he is money in pocket;" why should it not hold good if a town stops likewise? "What is beneficial to the' parts cannot be detrimental to the whole. If a town of Astoria's size, 5,000 men, has 2,000 laboring men who pay out for drinks an average ol 50 per man in a year, after the liquor business is prohib ited and the 2,000 are law-abiding, which is not at all improbable, where will the 100,000 go to? Even if we admit that the remain ing 2,000 would break the law, "drink just the same," and the 1,000 never drank, these 100,000 woulgo far toward paying our 20 merchants some of their old P. & L. accounts, or build and fur nish homes through the medium of our B. & L. association, because the money is here already, earned with timber or fish. Can the merchants afford to pay the ihcreased tax? ff their dead head bills are paid, in a few, say five years, this accumulated cap ital of 6100,000 a year, will at present tax levy, pay more to the city than is now paid by license. The problem is, how ought this money be spent? PROHIBITION.

At The Cascade Locks.risis Work has been resumed at the Cascade locks, and those in charge claim that they have 240 men at work. The lower end of the canal is filled with sand, which is being taken out, says the Wasco Sun. A gang of about twenty men are employed in recutting some of the stone w'hich was cut several jears ago, and another gang is putting up somebuildings and repairing others. The trouble with the work at the Cascades is that none of it is ever completed, and every fall it uses up nearly all the ap propriation to put tilings in order for the next high water.
