There is considerable stir here in canning preparations for the coming season, both for the Columbia river and Alaska canneries. Already men are being secured and contraots signed for 1839 in Alaska on the basis of freo transportation to anu irom tue cannery, subsistence while thero, S50 a month and one cent for each red 3aImon caught. it is said that on the river an equivalent to a little mora than the Bgure3 recently set by the Colnmbia River Fishermen's Protective Union is being promised, a, some are offer ing their boats rent free, while it is even stated that in some instances board is included iu the agreement. Dnring the last camn.uen it was said that the whole system ot national prosperity resolved itself into the foleowing: Two men for one job, bad times. Two job3 for one man, gcod times. At present it appears to be two job for one man. But it is prob.iblo that a little later in the year there will bo no Such scarcity of men as at present appears to exist.

Why is it that the boys are allowed to sit in the bouse doing nothing, while their overworked mother is struggling against nature and fate to do about half the work waiting for her hands? Only the other day, says Household, we saw threo large able bodied boys lounging about the house, not knowing what to do with themselves, while their mother alone, tired and pale, was trying to do the work ot a large family and company. Not a boy's work to help about the bouse? Why not? Is there anything about washing dishes that will injure him, or that he cannot learn to do well? or about making beds, or sweep ing, or getting the table, or washing or ironing, or cooking a plain meal of victuals? On the contrary, thero is much to benefit him in such work, the most important ot which is fo gain the idea that it is not manly to let the "weaker vessel" carry all the burdens, when it is possible for strong young bands to help. Most boys would gladly help in the house if they were asked to do so, and were taught bnw to do the work nroDerlv. Mauy a smart boy wants to help bis tired motuer, but does not know how, beyond bringing in the wood and water. That done, she tells htm to go and play, while she plods wearily on. Not a boj'e work? For shame I It is a positive harm to a boy's moral character to allow him to think it right for him to be idle while bis mother is staggering under her bur dens. Let the boys help, and those who cannot get help "for love or money" will see their troubles dis appear. ECZEMA CAN BE CURED. Themntt osonlz he. humiliating:.

The Tacoma Ledger says that gam blers and thugs infest that city, and that a straueer who goes upon the streets at night takes great risks of beingrobbed and probably murdered. It is, indeed, a sad state of affairs. The Columbia Canning company, of Seattle, has filed a petition of insolv ency with the county auditor. Lia bilities amount to SG.094.61. and as sets will probably reach the same amonnt. The creditors are mostly of oeauie. An Arizona exchange, in sneakino of the death of a prominent citizen, says: "After a long and useful life, this great and good man was cut off, surrounded by his weeping family, by a carbuncle on his nock.

Just before the holidays one of Astoria's "young bloods" priced a pair ot nobby garters at tho New York Novelty Store, the latest caper of silken fashion, jewelled and elabor ately gotten up, and valued at 340. He bought them and said if the young lady for whom they were in tended would let him put them on, he would keep them. Nothing was heard of the garters till yesterday, when the young lady walked into a jewelry store with the identical garters to have her mono gram engraved on the gold olasps; and now the question naturally nrises, "Did she let him put them on?"
