Elder W. F. Martin visited in Forest
Grove yesterday iiud no meeting was
held at the gospel tent last night. The
subject for tonight will be "Angels,
What Are They?" , Tomorrow night
Mr. Martin will speak on "The State
of the Dead" and Thursday night on
"Spiritualism." The subject matter
of the first two subjects leads up to
the treatment of the third, and every
one is invited to attend these meetings
to get the most out of them.
Now, before the grain harvest has
even reached its close people are be
ginning to turn their attention tcUhat
which comes next in the annual rota
tion of the season's activities the hop
picking and prune picking season. It
is believed that both of these will be
commenced from one to two weeks
later in the season than usual this
year, owing to the weeks of dry, hot
weather which have retarded the de
velopment of the crops. Thus far both
the bops and prunes in this vicinity
are reported to be in excellent condi
tion, and although tbe quantity may
be somewhat less than usual, they will
probably far exceed the average in
quality.
MELONS AND
COFFEE
WISE TALKS BY U. S. LOUQHARYS
OFFICE BOY
Well, Sir, school has been out two
weeks and I haven't had any melons
yet. I suppose Its my own fault for
they are certainly getting plenty
enough. I tell you what It is, next to
the strawberry, a melon is the best
thing a man can eat in the morning,
and coffee is tbe best' thing he can
drink. A lot of folks have a kind of
grouch against coffee drinking, but
maybe they never get the right kind.
Really good coffee hasn't a grouch In
a gallon of it. Poor coffee contains to
much of the bitter principal "tannin,"
I think they call it,) and that makes a
fellow peevish, especially too much of
it. Lots of good ooffee is ruined in the
making; boiled too long; made too
weak, and dosed with poor milk. To
be a good and wholesome drink, coffee
should be roasted fresh, made strong,
and brought just to tbe boiling point
(or made in a coffee percolator by
pouring boiling water over the pow
dered coffee) and served with rich
cream such as the St Charles or Pio
neer brands. Ma says this Is so and
that good coffee, properly made, never
hurts anyone. Have you tried our M.
J. B. coffee?
