TAKING RELIGIOUS CENSUS OF TOWN (CoTtinuel from first page.) f Dr. Pratt Is very strong and Im resses one more and more as ac lualntance grows.

INVESTORS and LAND BUYERS All over the Northwest are talking of Wal lowa County and the wonderfully fertile lands here that can be bought cheaper than similar land anywhere in the Inland Empire.

Frenchmen of every rank and class dearly love titles. The manager of a Talis insurance company was decorat ed with the Legion of Honor a few days ago, and the clerks In the em ploy of the company presented him with a piece of plate to which their visiting cards were attached. On look ing over these he was a good deal puz zled and amused by the visiting card the office "boy," an old soldier from the Invalldes, who was employed to open the office doors from 0 to 4. Under the man's name was tha title "the emperor's orderly." He sent for the old soldier, who stumped In and saluted. "Of what emperor are you the order ly, and how?" bp asked. The old In rallde drew himself up to attention. "I am the orderly of the emperor," he said, "Napoleon, le Petit Corporal." "But be la dead. He has been dead some time," answered the puzzled manager. "I dust bis tomb for him," growled the old soldier. London Express. No Morals In Dreamland. If. as ninny writers have suggested, It is the soul Itself that guides the im agery of. dreams, bow are we to ex plain the fact that in this chaos of ideas and feelings there Is so little dis tinction between right and wrong that wbeu dreaming we commit acts for which we should weep tear? pf blood were they as real ns they seem to be. As Professor Hoffman has said, "The familiar check of waking hours, 'I must uot .do t because It would be un just or unkind,' never ones seems fo arrest us In the satisfaction of any whim which may blow about our way ward fijnejes." From all of which we must conclude that the dream realm Is a world tbaf bj entirely oblivious to any moral sense and that, though It may be true that a troubled couBciepce may produce or affect our dreams, the dreams them selves are never burdened with a con science. Bohemian Magazine. A Makar or iftia. Some excellent bulls are credited to U'IU!am Arolln, who was a London police Judge n tbe thirties of tha lat't century. He once remarked to coun sel, "If you can show precisely at What moment the offeuse was commit ted and prova that the prisoner was not there when be did It, b con Id Dot possibly hava doue It" And be'ftugely added, "We cannot divest ourselves of conimou eeusa In a court of Justict." Of a similar character was an allow be ouce delivered himself of, which has boon maliciously fathered on many other occupants of tbe bench, "If ever there was a case of clearer evidence than this case, this case Is that case." rise i NOTICE OF 8ALE OF IMPOUNDED OTOCK.
