A little while they live on umlie, and glance, and whis pered adoration; but honeymoons pans by eftaoons, and then thore comes a strained relation. The husband sighs when eating pies sug gestive of some kinds of leather; he gives a whoop when eating Boup that makes his Insldes run together. He never thought before he brought the blooming dumsel to the altar to ask If she could cook so ho could cat her grub and never falter. The bride Is filled with grief and chilled with dread; the skies seem dark above her; he slays away for half a day and doesn't swear he'll always love her. Have patience, though! This phantom woe will pass away, as they grow younger! The brldo will bake a dazzling cake, and pies to soothe her husband's hunger! And he will learn to pause and turn, when leaving for his dally duty, and tell his wife that she's his lire, his soluce and his dreum of beauty. . . , WALT MASON. Copyright, 1909, by George Matthew Aduuib. REPORT OF TOWN MANAGER Charles E. Ashburner, the man who manages the town of Staunton, Va., has made his report for the fiscal year ending March 31. Staunton hires a man to administer its affairs, and his- report will be of general interest. We find a condensed review of it in the Norfolk Landmark, which says that Ashburner established in the previous fiscal year an up-to-date system of municipal accounting, and therefore he is able to show in the present report the receipts and disbursements for every purpose in every department, and the exact cost of each piece of city work; Mr. Ashburner notes that the administration of the city's improvements during the fiscal year have apparently given com plete satisfaction to the public, and that all that has been done has been accomplished without increasing the debt of Staunton a cent. Without going beyond the current revenues, Staunton was able during the year to add to its equipment 7000 feet of granolithic sidewalks, nearly 13,000 feet of macadam and as phalt streets, over 3000 feet of sewer, and about 6000 feet of water mains an inorease in eaoh item, varying from a mini mum of 30 per cent over the previous year to 4 B0 per cent, and in each case at a diminished oost per foot. A business manager brings as important results for a town for any other publio or private enterprise. The main thing is , that it places the municipality on a business basis, something that so many of them laok. . . CONTRAST BETWEEN RAILROADS 'The Hill lines are sending out large quantities of "literature" advertising Oregon. They are not asking the towns in their territory to contribute a dollar, but are bearing all the expense themselves. Such a course is in marked contrast with the policy of the Harriman lines, which have "worked" practically every town in Western Oregon for from $300 to $3000 to pay the expenses of an advertising campaign which the Hill roads pay for out of their own funds. The reason for this seems to be that Hill is in the railroad business exclusively, and has no side lines, and as far ai possible is conducting a legitimate transportation business, having no desire to own and control the country through which his roads run. This policy was referred to by Louis W. Hill in his speech at Klamath Falls, when he said: Upon our road we lot the public own tho towns and run them, but down 'hero apparently tho railroads have a hand In them. Now, I would not want :to Interfere with anybody's town. If It Is a railroad town, and that Is one thing ws will have to consider. Klamath Falls seems to be a railroad town from the standpoint of railroad officials having property Interests here .additions In which they are Interested. Now, you can Imagine what results we would obtain if wo wore to try to secure station grounds through the portion of the city that is owned by some other railroad, which would not 'do a great deal to encourage us In our work of development. But I pro 'ume that thore are two sides to a town. If we raunot get In on one sldo w can on the other. Not only does the Southern Paoific run a job printing office as a side line, but it seems, as is the case at K'.amath Falls, its officials gobblo up additions and other real estate for specula tive purposes. They apparently are after everything in sight in urogon, and only tuo invasion of the Hill interests gives tho peo pie the slightest hope of relief from tho monopoly. money but he do. tt him his power to anTtTeT iv,- th world tjrefer the coin itself, ana wj JUOSl Ol tu ,. thorn. would create happiness for themselves by spending it on tnem selves.

THINGS WE THINK and WHAT OTHERS THINK By Elbert Bede INEWS OF JUNCTION ZsSreSryear.g!s- tratlon will men cue mum. The government garden seeds are seeds of discontent. A bald-headed man may not al ways come out on top. The chanticleer hat is causing con siderable fuss and feathers. The man who kills time Is not worthy of a trial by any employer. a a a The man or women who marries for money seldom gets a wealth of love. . Those who have the least to say usually take the longest time to do it. If every kick Is a boost, the ballet dancer Is certainly a persistent booster. When a girl lets a man nut on her rubbers for her, she usually puts her foot In It. Some men try to imake you believe you are "the candy" by handing you a bunch of taffy, British consols are lower. The word should not be mistaken as referring to public officials. Consols in England fill about the same position as gov ernment bonds In this country. When some smooth one tells you what fabulous sums you can make by Investing In some Industry located thousands of miles away, just bear In mind that there are such .things as figures of speech. a Some one has complained that Americans do not die artistically.
