J1EWS FH01H THE WEST SIDE
THE MOTOR LINE
STILL SON
But West Sitlers Have Hopes That It
Kill Yet Come
Another week ha gone by! and no sign of
Ui motor lln that is to bring Astoria u1
tlie West till ckwor lottelher. Yea. there Is
nmi sign. About a fk ago the drive
wheels ftr the engine were relumed from the
abopi at Corvnllls, where they had buen ent
tor repair. They were left lying ou the dock
In Asuirla for aereml daya after their return,
finally being brought to tht aide of the bay.
The two aaenger eoarhea are UU la the
store house of the Bay Railway at Smith
Point. When the new motor train will be
started lia question no one outnlde the rail
road official can answer, though there are a
number oeer here who would Ilka to have
n Ido of the time. The tockholder of Uie
new Hotel Flavel appreciate, no doubt, the
excellent aervlce the railroad compauy I
giving their part of the Weal Side. It will
probably come In time however.
Kearly every one who ha ben to Portland
remember the little steamer Cyclone, one of
the ftuteat craft ever run on the Willamette.
Eh wa in the passenger trad between Stark
street and Alblna, and coined money, before
the eleetrle ca went Into conn etltlou be
tween Tortland and that point. Well, for the
paal mmilh certain panic Interested In the
welfare of the M Side of Young- Bay, have
been seriously considering a move toward
putting on a quick and cbeap m. n oi tran-
(poruilon between Astoria, maneaion ana
Flavel. and it li thought by employing a ream
er tlmtlar to the Cyclone their object would be
attained. A small, fast l earner, it 1 thought,
woald catch the bulk of the traffic between
thoae point If Ave cent fare i charged in
competition with the railroad motor fere of j
10 and si cent. Tbare 1 no doubt that a
ataamer could aflord to do this on a 5 sent
commutation rate, aud 10 cent fur single trips.
It would be cheaper Iran the railro .d and Juit
aj rapid and convanieut.

FRl'lT AND ITH lK-t.
For some years past physlctaus anl other
hygienic reformer have been telling ua of the
value of fruits, uud we are beginning at last
to heed wb it they say.
There are few households today where fruit
1 regarded a a luxury. Generally speaking
It 1 now cousldc ret the one requisite fur old
and young.
The most common and wholesome fruit Is
theapple, of which we find a large variety
It may be eaten raw or prepared In almost
endless ways, and is always acceptable.
Baked or stewed apple will generully agree
with the most delicate stomachs, and are an
excellent medicine In many kinds of sic
nesa. Although unripe fruit is nut fit to tie
eaten raw, green or unripe apples stewed and
sweetened are pleasant to the taste, uourlsli
ing, cooling and laxative, being fur ii-rlor
to pills, oils and other compounds for this
purpose. In winter, raw or dried apples
stewed, fulfill the same mission.
It la said that peaches are the most whole
some and easily digested of any fruit, and we
can all speak for their toothsome pnMTtles.
They are often lnioroperly eaten, however,
for we scarcely realize that overripe fruit is
as harmful as unripe. We regret every year
that the ieacb season Is so limited, and every
year the country's stock of cauned peaches Is
on the Increase.
Two fruits, however, we have always with
us the ora.ige and the banana. There seems
to be no time when the orange is not popular
and agreeable. Whether tossing with fever,
parched with the beat of summer, or cele
brating the Joyous Chrlstimutlde, the orange
Is ever welcome. It Is wise to remember that
even the thin division walls of the orange are
bard to digest. The Juice and pulp are all
that should be eaten.
Lemons, too, play a varied part In our
household economy, Lemonoge quenches
thirst when the thermometer stands at 100
degrees In the shade, or, thickened with su
gar, breaks up a cold contracted during the
chilly winds of December. The feverish pa
tient gulps It down readily, and the pastry
fiend regards It as an old friend when served
as lemon pie.
The banana Is a cheap fruit, and popular
with the children. It is probably the most
hearty food of any of the fruits, but Is readily
digested by the majority of people.
To the small seeded fruit of summer and
early autumn we owe more than we perhaps
are aware for our general good health during
those trying seasons. If closer attention
were paid to the orchard and fruit garden In
summer, and the selection of sound fruit for
winter us-, we would have less need of drugs
and medicines, and our average health would
be much belter.
